"Holiday shopping sucks ass." Mandy complained. She was at her forth store in the mall and still hadn't found anything for the one person she loved the most. Her boyfriend was already a tough person to shop for but add the fact that it was Christmas Eve and she was about to go out of her mind. Luckily, he was working today so she had plenty of time to track down that perfect gift.
To make matters worse she had made the mistake of dressing her sexiest thinking she would be done with enough time to attend a holiday party she had been invited to. Her high heels, stockings, long skirt with slit up on leg and low cut open front blouse were perfect for attracting the horny stares of men and women but lousy for shopping for gifts. The party had already started without her, her feet hurt so much she had taken off the shoes to walk the mall barefoot and she gotten so many dirty looks from soccer moms with little ones in tow she was about to fly off the handle and punch someone.
She would have had a gift for him already but he had already bought it and then a friend of hers bought her second choice before she could leaving her walking the malls going from shop to shop trying to find something worthwhile. Mandy had started at eight in the morning and now it was four in the afternoon, even though the day was almost over she wasn't any closer to finding something her boyfriend would like. Going through the categories of things to get him in her mind Mandy wandered around looking at storefronts hoping one of them would have something even close to a good gift. She was getting frustrated and hungry so she made her way to the food court to eat and rest. On her way there, however, she walked by a brand new shop she had never seen before and it gave her the idea for a perfect gift. Her hunger and aching feet took precedent at the moment so she walked by the shop and made a mental note to stop by again after she ate.
Getting in line to the Chinese place she happened to notice a very handsome friend of hers she had not seen in years. She had always been hot for him and the passage of time had done nothing to lessen it. It took him a couple of seconds to notice her but once he did, they locked eyes, traded smiles and then hugged each other tightly.
"Holy shit what are you doing here?" Michael asked her.
"Getting my ass kicked by grandmas and soccer moms, what brings you here?" Mandy kissed his cheek gently. Even though she had a boyfriend she would gladly cheat for a chance to get in the sack with Michael.
"Yeah I know what you mean. I waited till the last second to get a gift for Angie." He confessed.
"Oh you're with Angie? How is she these days?" Mandy asked gleeful.
"She's alright, we're in a bit of a tough spot right now though. She thinks I'm cheating on her." He scowled.
"That sucks, what got into her anyway?" Mandy asked disappointed.
"She almost cheated on me. I walked in on them at a party once she was getting her clothes back but they hadn't done anything. It was over a year ago but she stills goes on and on about it."
"Wait a minute, she almost cheats on you and she gives you a hard time? What the fuck's up with that?" Mandy put her hands on her hips and shook her head. It had been a long time since she'd seen Angie but this didn't sound too out of character for when she was in high school.
"She thinks I'm going to 'Get her back' for what she did and she keeps telling me not too." Michael shrugged. "I don't know, I love her but I'm at my wit's end."
"You thinking of calling it quits?" Mandy asked hopeful.
"I don't know yet. We'll see. I'm still trying to find that perfect gift for her but she's impossible to shop for."
"Yeah I hear you there. My man is also tough to shop for but I think I found the best place to get him a fantastic gift."
"Oh man I wish I could have been that lucky." He told her. They both paused for a moment to order their meals and bump elbows with the rest of the patrons in line, it took several minutes to get their food and find a place to sit.
"So what did you have in mind for your man?" Michael asked her while she chewed a bite of her food.
"Me." She perked up and smiled when it was polite to do so.
"Huh?" Michael asked perplexed.
"I'm going to buy some sexy lingerie, wrap a body bow around my waist and handcuff and blindfold myself to the bed. He's been dying to do that to me for the longest and I was always too prudish to try it but now I think I'll just toss my inhibitions for the sake of the holidays and let him have me how he wants me." She winked at Michael when she finished, noticing that he was sneaking a peek at her long legs.
"Wow, that sounds hot. I wish Angie was into stuff like that." He complained.
