Jessica and Michelle have been friends since high school. Now in their late 20's, they had been through many things together. However, neither had ever considered what they would go through together on this night.
Michelle had been dating her boyfriend for almost 2 years, and things weren't going well. It was a relationship that probably should have already ended, but for whatever reason hadn't as of yet.
They got into a heated argument on a Friday afternoon, and Michelle decided that she needed to get out of the house for the night. She called Jessica to see what she was doing. "Nothing" was the basic answer. Michelle explained they had been fighting and wanted to come over and get drunk. Jessica thought this sounded like a great idea, so Michelle packed up some booze and headed for Jessicas house.
The drinking began upon arrival, and before long both were laughing and having a good time, forgetting about the troubles of earlier in the day.
After a couple of hours (and several margaritas each) Jessicas phone rang and it was another friend of hers named Amy. Amy invited Jessica over to an impromptu party that had started at her house one street over. She explained there were several people there and everyone was having fun.
Jessica told Amy that Michelle was over and they were already drowning the days sorrows in Tequila. Amy said to bring Michelle as well, and to bring bathing suits because the hot tub was going strong. Jessica asked Michelle if she wanted to go, and Michelle agreed. They grabbed booze and bathing suits, and walked to Amys house.
Amys party was a good one. There was over 20 people there, and everyone was having a good time. The booze flowed freely, and most everyone was beyond drunk.
Around 9:00, a guy named John took an interest in Michelle. He began trying to talk to her with usual chit chat, but Michelle cared very little about men that evening. The fight with her boyfriend was still fresh in her mind. The more John tried to talk to her, the more irritated she became with him.
"Jess, this guy keeps hitting on me, and I'm not really in the mood" she said to her friend.
Jessica replied "You want me to run blocker for you? I wouldn't mind it a bit because I think he's fucking hot anyway. You can do what you want and I'll do him!"
Michell laughed. "You would do that for me?"
"Yeah, I'll take one for the team to protect you from the evils of the hot guy. I wouldn't do this for just anyone, but I will for you because I love ya."
Both got a good laugh out of this and agreed that Jessica would run blocker for Michelle against John for the rest of the evening.
Michelle felt better knowing Jess had her back and knocked back some more drinks. Jess kept drinking as well, so both were getting very drunk.
Every time John tried to move in and talk to Michelle, Jess slipped in and took over the conversation.
At some point during the night, Jess had slipped off somewhere and John saw his chance to talk to Michelle alone. She was sitting on the couch by herself. John came and sat next to her.
He said "I've been wanting to talk to you all night, but haven't really had the chance".
Not sure what to say, and very drunk, Michelle searched for words. "I , uuhh, I've just been hanging..."
Before she could finish her half constructed sentence, John leaned over and kissed her. It wasn't a regular kiss. It was a hard, deep passionate kiss. Something in Michelle instantly melted at this kiss. It had been a long time since she'd been kissed like this. She instantly knew that she liked it, and she missed it. She let out a very small moan and began to kiss back. John began to kiss her harder and lightly but firmly pulled her hair. Michelle had never had her hair pulled like that before, and it set off something she didn't expect. She REALLY liked it. It made her instantly hot and wanting more.
All of the passion missing in her relationship with her boyfriend seemed suddenly to erupt inside of her. Within those few seconds, she already saw the possibilities of what could be that night.
On cue, Jess came walked up and interrupted the moment.
"There you are" she said. "I've been looking all over for you."
