Lunch With Toni

"Later" turned out to be a half an hour. Sarah got a text from Toni just saying "Can we meet for lunch?"

Toni showed up at Sarah's office around 11:30. "Any specific place you want to go?" asked Sarah.

"Just not the student center," said Toni. "They put holes in the bathroom walls there, and I don't feel like sucking anybody's cock just now."

"Agreed," said Sarah with a smile. "How about I take you to Angelo's?" Angelo's was a small Italian restaurant in Sarah's neighborhood. It was known as more of a local's place than a college eatery.

The weather was still fine. Autumn was slow to arrive this year, and while the trees were starting to turn, it was still warm out, if a little breezy.

As they walked, Sarah thought that Toni wanted to ask her something, but was unsure how to start. She decided to break the ice. "What was up with that 'Lynne' stuff this morning? Who is that?"

A look of relief passed over Toni's face. It quickly turned to anger. "Yeah, fucking Lynne," she said. "Lynne was James' last girlfriend, and she was, like, super slutty. She'd do pretty much anything sexual, even really fucked up stuff. Anyway, she was psycho, too, and so they broke up, but ever since then, James has been jonesing for kinky sex."

She continued, "That's what led to this morning. Ever since that first double, he's been pushing for more. And he gets off if I talk to him like that, tell him I'll be as nasty as Lynne was." She started crying a little. "Why can't he just like me? I love him so much and he just thinks about that psycho slut! I feel totally inadequate!"

Sarah put her arm around Toni. "Oh, I'm so sorry," she said. "Men can really be infantile like that... they don't know when they've got something good, and many men are looking for a kind of ideal where none exists."

Toni threw her arms around Sarah. "Thank you so much, Sarah," she said. "You've been a real friend to me, and after I was such a bitch to you in the booth. I'm sorry I was mean early on, and I'm sorry about bringing James in!"

Sarah examined her own feelings and was surprised by what she felt. "You weren't a bitch to me at all. I really did need that kind of firm guidance then. And honestly, our times with James were just fucking hot. Uninhibited, you know? Like it unlocked a door that I didn't even know existed."

Toni pulled back a little. "You mean it?"

"Yeah," said Sarah. "Your advice helped me with my husband, too. I guess this makes us good friends then," she said with a grin.

Toni smiled too. They started walking again, and Toni linked her arm with Sarah's.

At Angelo's they took an outdoor table. "It's beautiful out and we may not get more chances before winter," said Sarah. Toni sat next to her rather than across. Their knees touched under the table, which Sarah found she didn't mind at all.

"Now tell me more about this Lynne," said Sarah. "What exactly is James missing out on?"

Toni took a breath. "Lynne was basically a porn star. I mean, she wasn't in porn, but she acted like it. She told him she thought of herself as a 'full service slut', can you believe that?"

"What sort of thing are we talking about? I mean, you seem pretty amazing sexually to me..." here Sarah trailed off.

"Thanks," said Toni. "Sincerely. I think the main thing he liked was that Lynne was super oral. She'd suck him off any time, and rim him, and he said she even let him piss in her mouth."

"Oh, ewww," said Sarah. "For real?"

"Yeah, for real," said Toni.

"Did you ever, umm, do that?"

"No. I mean, James has hounded me about it, and just between us, one day I took a little taste of my own, to see how bad it would be. And it's not really that bad -- I just couldn't see doing that for James. I came close once but ... well, sometimes he can be an asshole and I guess he chose the wrong moment to do that!"

Sarah laughed. Toni continued, "Anyway, Lynne would do all that shit at the drop of a hat. That was one reason they broke up -- she got too **** even for him, wanting to do gangbangs on the weekends with his friends, I think it hurt his feelings."

"But not enough to make him treat you right," said Sarah.

"Hah, yeah. And she gave him a taste for the kinky stuff."

"We did a little of that this morning," said Sarah with a smile.

"We sure did, Sarah," said Toni. She reached over and held Sarah's hand. "And I wouldn't mind doing that again with you. Or even more... it was fun."

"Me too," said Sarah. "I can't believe I'm saying it, but it really would feel nice. Maybe you wouldn't mind if we gave my husband a double -- I bet that would blow his mind. Now, how does James treat you outside of sex? What's your relationship like?"

"Oh, pretty good," said Toni. "I thought we'd get married, actually. I can see myself with him long term. We mesh well together. He just sometimes has this streak, like he self-sabotages or something. Like he has a knack for being a dick at the wrong moment. I wish he could change this, just a little. I'd probably do a lot more weird stuff for him if he was just reliably kind."

Sarah resolved then to try to repair things between them. She had an idea.
