Subject: Second Chances 1

This is a work of fiction involving explicit sex between two women. If this
type of thing offends you, or if you are under 18, or if reading this
breaks any law where you are...DO NOT PROCEED!!

While I sat there watching my two best friends, I had to admit that I was
jealous. Stephanie and DJ had been together now about eight years and you
would still think that were still in the honeymoon stage. I can remember
the day I met them about seven years ago. We were spending a night at the
only bar near the college that was for gays and lesbians. I had made a pass
at Stephanie; I had no idea she was taken. Rejection brought me the two
best friends a girl could have. And now we are sitting here celebrating 8
years. I glanced down at my watch. It was time to make the toast. I wasn't
good at this, speaking in front of a room. I glanced around at all the
people who had come to celebrate. Some I knew and some I didn't. I decided
there was no time like the present. I stood and got everyone's attention.

"Well, as some of you know, I am no good at speaking but for DJ and
Stephanie, I will give it a shot." I turned to them and raised my
glass. "Over the years I have watched your love grow even stronger than it
was the day I met you. I wish you many more years of happiness and may your
love continue to grow. Everyone, please raise your glasses with me - to DJ
and Stephanie."

A little while later, just about everyone in the room was on the dance
floor. I stood next to DJ.

"DJ, I am going to head out," I said.

"Are you sure? The party has just started."

"Yeah, I have a couple of accounts that I need to work on. You know I have
that big presentation on Monday." I took over after my father's Advertising
agency after he passed. "And from the looks of it you better go dance with
your woman. Have a good night."

"With that look, my night won't be just good, it'll be fantastic. We'll see
you tomorrow" Every Saturday we have a diner at their place and swim in the
pool during summer. I watched DJ walk over to Stephanie. I sighed.

"Doesn't it make you sick?" I turned to the voice beside me. "Hi, I'm Sara
Davenport, I work with Stephanie."

"Casey Hamilton, it's nice to meet you. And no not really."

"So, Casey, how long have you known them," Sara asked.

"For about seven years. I met them one night at this club by the college. I
saw Stephanie leaning against the bar by herself. I tried to pick her up. I
got a very graceful rejection but we continued to talk and she introduced
DJ and the rest is as they history." I continued to study Sara. "You said
you work with Stephanie?" Sara looked too young to be a doctor.

"Yeah, I transferred in about a month ago. She has been so kind in helping
me with the transition and showing me around, helping me to meet
people. She's told me about you." She said the last with a small smirk on
her face.

All I could do was shake my head and say, "Oh boy, all good I hope."

"Oh, it's good Casey. Could I interest you in a dance?

"I will have to take a rain check. I was just about to leave."

"Now, why would you do that? It's Friday night and it's still way too early
to call it a night."

I considered it for a moment and then said, "Unfortunately, I have a lot of
work to do to finish up for a major presentation on Monday."

"Stephanie did say you are a work-a-holic. Will you be making it to the BBQ
tomorrow?"

"I never miss those. That's another reason I need to get my work done
tonight."

"Well then, Casey, maybe we can talk more tomorrow."

"I don't see why not." I replied, looking around for a place to set my
glass.

"Here, I'll take that for you. Don't want to keep you from your work." As
she reached out to take my glass from me, our hands brushed against each
other and I immediately felt the electric jolt. My eyes flew to hers. I
could see she felt it too. We stared at each other for a moment. I realized
that her hand was still on mine.

"Thank you, I better get going." I said, as I pulled away.

I could feel her staring after me as I walked away.

As Sara watched Casey walk away, she thought about what had just
happened. She knew that Casey felt it too; she could see it in her
eyes. Hopefully, tomorrow they could explore things a little more. She
watched Casey until she was no longer in view.

"Sara, I'm so glad you could make it." Sara turned to see Stephanie.

"Thanks for the invite. I can't wait to get in a pool, it's so hot already
and summer has barely started yet."

"Sara, this is DJ." Stephanie said as DJ walked up behind her.

"It's nice to meet you." It was amazing how Stephanie could tell DJ was
there without even looking.

"Likewise. I see you were chatting with Casey," DJ said.

"Yeah, we were discussing how you two make everyone jealous," causing
Stephanie to chuckle.

"Sara, you're crazy. So, are you coming tomorrow?" Stephanie asked.

"Oh, I wouldn't miss it for anything." They continued to talk a little more
before someone called the two away. They said goodbye with promises of
seeing each other tomorrow.

On the other side of town, I was sitting in my office looking out over the
lights. My thought kept going to Sara. I hadn't expected to feel that jolt
of electricity. Not that Sara was hard to look at. She was a couple inches
shorter than herself, with blonde hair, soft green eyes, and all the right
curves.

"I don't have time for this," I muttered to myself. Don't have time for
fantasy or relationship. Looking at the clock, I saw that it said 4 A.M. I
better go get some sleep.

* * * * * * * * * * * *

"It's a perfect day to be by the pool."

"Casey, I'm glad you could take a break long enough to come. You work too
much."

"Yeah, I know."

"And we need to work on that."

"Did someone say work," DJ asked as she walked into the room. "Work is a
bad word today. Tell her Sara." I had not seen Sara behind her.

"Yep, no work today."

"I'm not working today. Besides, I got it all done last night." I said,
while turning to DJ and Sara.

"So Casey, how late did you stay?" DJ asked, raising one eyebrow.

"None of your damn business."

"So, you left this morning." I guess Stephanie sensed where this was going
and told DJ to go get the grill going.

"Thanks Stephanie," I said.

"Casey, you really should slow down. It's not good for your health."

"Are those Doc's order?"

"If I have to, yes."

"I'll try," I could feel Sara's eyes on me. "Stephanie, I'm going to go get
in the pool."

"Okay, Sara, why don't you go with her? I'll be out in a minute."

"They watch over you like mother hens don't they," Sara asked on the way
out. "They do it because they love me. But it does get a little old," I
said. "But they can do it all they want. I consider them family."

"Casey, what're you saying' about us," DJ asked.

"I was just telling Sara that you two are the most loveable pains in the
ass." Sara laughed, and it was mesmerizing. "Now, I'm going for a dip." I
went over to the lounge chair, pulled off my shirt and shorts. I could
sense someone looking at me. I looked around and saw Sara looking at me
with what was obvious desire in her eyes. She just grinned. I went to the
deep end and dove in, and swam down to the other end, to sit on the
steps. Sara appeared beside me holding a glass of sweet tea.

"Thanks."

"You're welcome, and it's already a nice day." I could almost hear the grin
that she had on her face.

"And best of all, DJ is not too bad with the grill."

"I hope so. They're both great people."

"Yes, they are."

"Stephanie was so friendly when I first came in. One can't help but love
her." With that, we noticed that Stephanie was now beside DJ at the
grill. They were lost in each other.

"I think they forgot all about us." I said.

"I can't wait to have that one day. What about you?" she asked, turning
back to me.

"They weren't always like that. At one point, I didn't think they were
going to make it."

"Everyone has problems."

"Not like those two did. But that's for another day. It's too depressing
for today." With that, I slipped further in the water. I could feel Sara
watching me. I had to admit that I am attracted to her too. But I don't do
relationship, not since Tyann.

"You know babe, your friend has the hots for Casey." DJ whispered in
Stephanie's ear.

"Yeah, I know. Her eyes follow Casey's every move."

"Whatcha gonna do about it?"

"Nothing."

"I say we forget about 'em and go back to bed." DJ said, as she pulled
Stephanie closer.

"As fun as that sounds, maybe later. As for those two, I am going to let
Casey handle it for herself."

* * * * * * * * * * *

A few hours later as the sun was setting, we were sitting around outside. I
glanced at Sara, and to no surprise, she was looking right at me. I stood
up.

"I'm going for another swim. Sara, care to join me?" I walked away, not
waiting to see if she was following. I walked straight to the edge and dove
in. When I came up she was in the pool. I swam over to the side and came to
a stop beside her. I didn't say anything at first, just looked at her.

"I don't do relationships," I said.

"Okay, how about sex. Do you do that?" She asked in a husky voice. I felt
her foot tracing along my calf. "I want you Casey."

"You don't seem to be the type to have casual sex."

"I hope there is nothing casual about it. I want it fast and hard and
feverish," she said as she moved closer to me.

"You don't hold anything back, do you?"

"Not when I want something," she said.

I didn't respond right away. All of a sudden, she turned and swam away,
leaving me to my thoughts and a view of her backside. I noticed DJ and
Stephanie going into the house carrying dishes. I swam after Sara. When I
caught up to her, I moved around to the front of her. "Yes?" Her lips
slightly parted. I leaned in and covered her lips with mine. She met me
with equal pressure. Even in the cool water I could feel the heat building
between my legs. I had never felt anything like this. I pulled away
breaking the kiss and said, "I don't want them knowing about this."

"Okay."

"Meet me at my house at 9 tonight." I gave her my address and we worked out
a way for us to leave without drawing attention to us. The next couple of
hours went by really slowly.

"DJ, Stephanie, I need to get going."

"Casey, I know you're not going to the office are you?" I could hear the
mother tone in Stephanie's voice.

"No, mom, I'm going home." I said, which drew laughter from
everyone. "Sara, it was nice seeing you again."

"You too, Casey." she said smiling. "By the way, what time is it?"

"It's about 8:30." DJ looked at her watch.

"I guess I better go too. I told my mom I'd call her at 9. It's my usual
Saturday time." We all made our goodbyes.

As I was driving along, I kept thinking that I was making a mistake. I
would just tell her that I changed my mind. This couldn't go anywhere. It
would just lead to problems, problems that I don't have time to deal
with. I sat in the driveway until I saw her little red BMW pull up behind
me. I watched her get out. As she was walking up to me, she reached back
and let her hair down. Oh God, I thought, she's gorgeous. If we go in the
house, I doubt that I would be able to refuse her. I got out and stood
beside my truck.

"Sara, I..." was all I got out before her lips covered mine. She backed me
up against my truck. I felt her hand go to the back of my head and hold me
to her." I pulled away, drawing a ragged breath.

"You know you want it, why do you keep denying it?"

"Because it could cause a lot of problems. You know we have mutual
friends."

"I thought you didn't want to tell them."

"I don't, but when this is over, it could be awkward at gatherings."

"Casey, I want you," she whispered as she leaned in to kiss me again. I met
her halfway because god help me I wanted her too.

"Let's move this inside," I said, between kisses.

By now, there was no return. It was going to happen. I barely had the door
shut behind us before we were tearing at each other's clothes. I nudged us
in the direction of my bedroom dropping clothes all the way. Sara's hands
were running everywhere. They felt so soft and smooth and were leaving a
trail of electricity behind them. By the time we got to the bedroom all we
had left on was the bottoms of our swimsuits. I hooked my thumbs in the
waist and started pulling them down. I bent down to pull them off the rest
of the way. My head was level with her pussy. I could smell the arousal. I
leaned forward and buried my head there, moving my hands up to her ass
pulling her toward me. I could hear her gasp as I stuck my tongue out to
take a small taste. I heard myself groan. I kissed her thighs and moved my
mouth back to her. I ran my tongue up and down her outer lips.

"Oh, Casey," she breathed. "Please," I noticed that we were close to the
bed so I stopped long enough to push her back onto it. I pushed her legs
apart as I knelt down by the edge. I looked up at her and saw that she was
watching me. Her lips slightly parted.

"What do you want?"

"You," she said, breathing heavily.

"What do you want me to do?"

"Fuck me."

"I like a woman who knows what she wants."

"Casey, please, this is torture," she begged. I lowered my head and ran my
tongue over her again and again putting a little more pressure with each
stroke. I knew when I ran my tongue over her clit; she arched her hips up
and grabbed my head with her hands pulling me deeper. I continued my
assault on her clit while inserting two fingers inside her. I began to move
them faster and faster. I pulled her clit into my mouth and sucked on it. I
could feel her muscles clenching my fingers tighter.

"Casey, please don't stop," she whimpered. I could tell she was getting
closer so I went a little faster. Her legs clamped down around my head as
she screamed out. I kept at it until her legs relaxed enough. I pulled
myself up onto the bed beside her. She was still breathing heavily. I had
my arm slung over my eyes. We just lay there like that for a few
minutes. No words were spoken. Her breathing had slowed to normal. I
thought she had fallen asleep until I felt her mouth take my nipple and her
hand slide in my swimsuit bottoms causing me to groan. I shifted my legs
further apart to give her more access. With that movement, she knelt beside
me and pulled at my bottoms, pulling them off.

"You should swim naked. You have the most beautiful body." I could see the
pure desire in her eyes.

"I do here. I have a pool." Oh great. Now I am babbling like an idiot. What
her hands were doing to my body was making me lose my mind.

"We will have to go skinny-dippin later." she said, as she situated herself
between my legs. "Speaking of dipping..."she said, as she lowered her head
to the juncture of my thighs. At the first lick of her tongue, I
jumped. She giggled.

"I swear I've done this before."

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah, it's just been a while."

"It sure didn't feel like it's been a while," she said and then blew a
breath on me. "Let's see what you remember."

Her mouth was then attached to my clit. I felt her insert two fingers into
me. Pulling in and out slowly as first and gradually she got faster and
faster. I felt the pressure building in me and I knew it wouldn't be
long. Sure enough, in no time at all I was over the edge. Sara licked at me
until my breathing wasn't so ragged, then crawled up beside me. We laid
there for a couple of minutes. Finally, I broke the silence.

"I don't remember it like that." All she did was laugh. I really liked her
laugh. "Do you want something to drink?" I asked.

"Water would be good. And a bathroom..."

"Ok, the bathroom is through that door right there and I'll go to the
kitchen."

I went to get up but she caught me by the arm and pulled me back down and
kissed me. It was soft but firm. It held the message that there was more if
I wanted it. It felt good kissing her. I pulled away and got up before she
had a chance to stop me. I couldn't believe what I was feeling. On the way
to the kitchen, I was telling myself not to feel anything. I was standing
at the sink when I heard Sara come in.

"Do you want ice," I asked.

"No," she said as she took the glass from me. "You didn't like what
happened earlier?"

"Huh..."

"You pulled away pretty quickly just now."

"Sorry. Yes, I enjoyed it. It's just..." I stopped mid-sentence. There was
no reason to go into it.

"It's just..." she began.

"Nothing. Why don't you go on and get in the pool?"

"Are you going to join me?"

"Yeah, I'll be out in a minute. I said. "I'll grab some towels."

"Okay." I watched her walk out the back sliding door gloriously naked. I
decided that later I was going to have her again. Once out of sight, I went
through and picked up our trail of clothes and put them in my room.

Walking out to the pool, I could see her lounging in a chair. Her body was
glistening wet. I could see the water shimmering on her. Her eyes were
closed so I took the opportunity to just look at her. Starting at her feet,
I noticed she had a toe ring. It was cute. My gaze traveled up her shapely
legs. I'm glad she shaves. I prefer that. A little further down were those
breasts. I didn't really pay enough attention to those-looked like maybe a
C. Later. By the time I got to her mouth, I was turned on again. And by the
grin she had I knew I'd been caught. My eyes flew to hers. I could see the
same desire I knew I felt in her eyes. She sat up on the lounger, her eyes
never leaving mine. She put one leg on either side of the chair, holding
out her hand to me. I copied her, sliding right up to her so that our
pussies were touching. My hands went to her breasts and our mouths met with
fiery passion. Her arms went around me with her hands cupping my ass to
pull me in closer. Sara began to move her hips with a thrusting motion. I
broke this kiss and trailed my mouth down her neck, and then a little
further. I cupped her right breast and brought it to my mouth sucking on
her nipple. She threw her head back and let out a moan. I could feel the
pressure building inside me. I reached around to grab her ass and pulled
her closer. She did the same. Together, we found a rhythm, faster and
faster. Our lips came together again, our tongues plunging into each
other's mouths. I was almost there. I felt her muscles begin to clench so I
picked up speed to take us both over the edge. She pulled away from this
kiss. "Oh Casey, yes, uh...yeah," her breathing was matching mine-very
ragged. We came at the same time. She leaned back on the chair and I went
with her, laying my head on her stomach. It was maybe about five minutes
later and she stirred. I started to move but she put her arm around me to
hold me still.

"Casey, I don't think you forgot a thing," she said.

"I guess not," I said with a chuckle. "Maybe in a few minutes when I get my
strength back I'll get in the pool to cool off."

"I say we lay here just like this for a while." Sara was running her
fingers through my hair. About 10 minutes later, I heard her stomach
rumble. I lifted my head up.

"I think someone's a little hungry?"

"Yeah, I am hungry but it isn't for food."

"That's not what your stomach is saying. Come on, let's go inside. I'll
make us a sandwich." I started to move. She sat up with me and before I
could get up she caught my face with her hands and pulled me into a
kiss. As our tongues were battling it out for control, I felt her hands
move to my breast and squeeze. This woman was insatiable.

"Casey, I want you again," she whispered in my ear.

"You are going to kill me." I said. "Can we at least go back to the bed?"

"I thought you'd never ask." All I could do was laugh. I got up, took her
hand, and led the way.

A few hours later we were lying there. Sara had her eyes closed but I
wasn't sure if she was asleep or not. I was thinking of getting up. I
looked at the clock. It read 3:30 A.M. I decided to lie there and try to
get some sleep.

I woke up to the sun coming in through the window. I immediately realized
that I wasn't alone. Looking over I saw Sara still sleeping, her blonde
hair spread out over the pillow. Pure beauty. I got up and got some clothes
on as quietly as I could. I walked down the hall to the guest bath and took
a shower. After my shower, I set about my normal routine. Starting the
laundry, I threw Sara's clothes in too. I made some coffee and sat down on
the couch to read the paper. About that time, my usual Sunday morning phone
call came. Tyann's mom called every Sunday morning. She called to see how I
was doing and to try to get me to come to Sunday dinner after church. This
morning was no different. In the last few weeks, she started mentioning
that I needed to start dating again. I keep telling her that I'm not
ready. "But Casey, you are still so young." I could hear her say. And as
always, I would tell her that I would think about it. When the call was
over, I got up to change the clothes over to the dryer. In the hall, I ran
into Sara, her body still damp.

"I took a shower. Hope you don't mind," she said quietly, almost
shyly. "But I couldn't find my clothes." She was still wrapped in the bath
towel.

"I'm just about to put them in the dryer. I figured you might want clean
clothes today. I'll find you something to put on." She watched me as I
moved the clothes around.

"I hope you didn't wash on my account."

"Nah, I do it every Sunday morning," I said.

"Well, thank you."

"Would you like some breakfast? Coffee?"

"Some coffee would be great." I could feel some awkwardness in the air. We
walked to my room in silence. I got her a pair of boxers and a tee shirt.

"These should do before your clothes get done; shouldn't be too long." Sara
took the clothes from me. Our hands brushed and I felt that jolt
again. Apparently she did too because I heard that quick intake of
breath. I broke contact with her. "Let's go get that coffee, huh."

"Yeah."

We sat in silence for a few minutes.

"Do you want any toast or something?"

"No, I'm not really a breakfast person," Sara said.

"Are you okay?"

"Sure," she nodded her head. "Why?"

"You don't seem to have that bubble personality that you had last night."

"I've never been any good at the morning after stuff. Despite what it
looked like I don't do this all the time."

"I didn't think you did. Neither do I. It's been a real long time." The
phone rang as I finished my responses. "Let me get that."

While on the phone with DJ, I had my back turned to Sara. Looking out the
kitchen window, I felt Sara come up behind me and put her arms around me
and start kissing my neck. I turned in her arms, but that didn't stop
her. She moved her hands inside my tee shirt.

"I don't know DJ. I don't think I will leave the house today." I felt
Sara's lips form a smile at that. "DJ, I'll get back to you." I hung up the
phone.

"Sara, did you know that you are a bad friend?" I asked.

"Last time I heard anything, I was good," she said with an innocent tone.

"Stephanie has been trying to get you all day."

"Oh, I have been pleasantly distracted."

"Yeah, they want to go to dinner tonight. If I didn't know better, I would
think that Stephanie is trying to play matchmaker."

"Now, don't they know that...what was it that you said, 'you don't do
relationships?"

"That has never stopped her before," I retorted.

"Can I ask you why?" As soon as Sara said the words, she regretted them. It
was like she watched the door slam in Casey's eyes. Sara had never seen
someone shut down so fast.

"Your clothes should be done by now," I said, and pulled away, hoping that
she would take the hint that it was time for her to go.

"You're right, I should get going," Sara decided to be blunt. She followed
me to the laundry room. I got them out of the dryer. Sara stripped right
there. She put on her shorts and top. Unable to apologize, I let her
leave. It was nothing personal. I just wasn't ready to talk about it with
her. I still have problems talking about it with DJ and Stephanie and they
are my best friends. For some reason, I became angry with myself. I decided
to go for a drive. About 30 minutes into my drive, I noticed that I was at
the cemetery. I always end up here when I'm angry. I walked over to the
gravesite. I could tell that her mother had been here recently. There were
fresh flowers and the weeds were gone. I took my usual seat. I read the
headstone just like I always do. It said, "Tyann Hamilton August 1976 -
March 2006 Devoted wife." Devoted wife just didn't cover it. She sacrificed
so much to make me happy. Her main goal in life was to make me happy. I
adored her. She was my everything.

I had sat there so long I lost track of time. At some point it had started
raining and I was soaked. Behind me I saw the headlights of a car coming
in. And then I heard, "Casey, what are you doing?" I recognized DJ's voice.

"DJ, just leave me alone."

"Bullshit." Then, she yelled to Stephanie to bring her a blanket. I
overheard some of the conversation they were having behind me.

"Step, you and Sara take her truck back to the house and we'll be there
shortly." DJ lowered her voice but I could still hear her. "What are we
going to do? She can't keep doing this."

"I know babe, we will think of something. Let's just get her home and dry
for now."

"Ok, baby, I love you. See ya in a few."

"Love you too." And then it was just DJ left.

"Casey...?"

"Yeah...DJ, I just miss her so much...It still hurts." I broke down and
cried again.

"Casey, hon, I know you do." She knelt down beside me and pulled me to
her. "Let it out, Casey."

So, I did. I cried for a long time. I was starting to shiver. DJ noticed
too.

"Come on, let's go."

"Just take me to my house."

"But..." DJ started.

"Please..."

"Ok, It's been a long time since we found you out here." DJ could only
remember one other time about three months ago.

"Yeah...I know." We rode a while in silence." I was fine until I spent the
night with Sara last night," I finally said.

"You spent the night with Sara?" she asked. "Like, as in, have sex?"

"Yeah." I went on to tell her all of the conversation that I had with Sara.

"Wow"

"That's all you can say?" I asked. "I feel like I have cheated."

"I think I understand how you feel. But don't you think that Tyann would
have wanted you to be happy?"

"I never got to say I'm sorry. And I never got to say goodbye. I don't feel
like I deserve to be happy."

"Tyann's main purpose in life was to make you happy. She would want you to
move on and be happy. No one will ever be able to take her place." I knew
she was right.

We pulled up to my house. "I'm going to go in and get a hot shower. And
then we'll go to your place."

"Ok, I'm going to call Stephanie and let her know what's up. Are you
feeling better?

"Yeah, Tyann's mom has been telling me for weeks that I need to go start
dating again. Maybe Sara won't think I'm too nuts after seeing this
tonight."

"I'm sure she won't. She's a great lady. Hurry up. We still have time for
dinner."

As I was showering, I could feel the stress and tension washing away. I got
out and dressed-Ready to go.
