It was the weirdest present I ever got and also one of the biggest surprises of my life. My twenty-first birthday and college graduation just happened to coincide, so my folks decided to make it a very big deal. For the day after the graduation, they rented a large salon at the Hyatt with a band and open bar and everything. Fortunately, they didn't invite the whole town, but maybe sixty-five or seventy friends and relatives were planning to attend. I didn't complain about it much; student loans and shit like that had sapped me dry and the graduation/birthday gifts might be just the thing to kick-start my bank account!
Anyway, the morning of...my mom sent me out to a couple stores to pick up some last minute shit for the party. Turning the corner into the Greenwood Mall parking lot, I was jolted hard by the sight of my girlfriend Katie getting into the passenger side door of a new Mustang, one that I didn't recognize. That wouldn't have been so bad, except there was a guy driving, and I didn't recognize him either. THAT wouldn't have been so bad, except she and I had been having a few problems lately.
Things had been awesome for the first year that we dated, but ever since Christmas, the whole relationship seemed to be slipping down into a lower gear. I thought it was because we were so busy with our last year of school; but damn...even our fucking had lost some of its zip! We used to be able to go at each other for two or three hours at a time; but lately, every time we got together I got the nagging feeling in the back of my brain that she was just trying to get it over with.
Being that I'm a curious son-of-a-bitch, I decided to follow them for a ways. This was dangerous because my candy apple red S10 pickup could easily be spotted, but I picked up the gauntlet and pulled out of the parking lot after them. When we stopped at the light on 10th and Scottsville Road, I received my present. Katie and that asshole leaned into each other like you read about. He was kissing her so hard that it crooked her neck at an odd angle, and from the looks of it his tongue had to be about halfway down her throat. Come to think of it, it might have been her tongue down his...Yep! We'd done the same thing a thousand times and more often than not, it was her tongue doing the deed.
Something twisted in my gut and all of a sudden I felt sick...and like...I didn't know what to do! This was my second real relationship and both times I'd gotten screwed by some other guy. Well actually, it wasn't the guys at all! How could I blame them? Katie was hot, fuckin' beautiful! Black hair, deep brown eyes, great legs and ass...her boobs were smallish but she was nuclear in bed. She was so active between the sheets, never passive. And DAMN, she'd kill me with her language, begging me to fuck her and always announcing how hard she was gonna cum! I remember one time when she was sitting on my face. She was using both hands to spread her pussy lips open and she just kept demanding, "Suck my clit, George, Oh...Fuck yeah...Suck it! Mmmm...ahhh! Oh, God...I'm gonna cum so hard!!! Ohhh Shit... Oh, Shit Yesss! Suck my fuckin' pussy...God!!" Wow and Damn! I woulda licked her clit for as long as she wanted!
I turned the wheels onto the shoulder of the road and just sat there for like ten minutes... thinking. Damn chicks! Why did shit like this have to happen anyway? I tried to think of what I might have done to blow this thing; but nothing really came to mind. It probably just wasn't meant to be...but, God, I was pissed anyway! A cop pulled up to my window and asked me what was wrong and I just told him I didn't feel well. He asked if I felt well enough to drive into the Stop-and-Shop just ahead and get out of the traffic and I did.
I went inside, bought myself a beer and sat on the tailgate. After about half a can I realized it was over. I knew it. There was no sense fooling myself. It would be easier to just get the break-up over with, right? So I picked the cell phone out of my pocket and dialed her up.
She answered right away. "Hello?"
"Hey Babe; it's me...what time did I say I was gonna pick you up tonight?"
"6:00...but... George? I..."
She sure sounded tentative, so I interrupted her, "I know...you're not feeling very well; I could see that last night."
"Yeah, I may have to stay in bed the rest of the afternoon."
That was a funny one! Even I snickered when she said it and I was pretty sure I heard the guy choking back a laugh too! "Yeah...you might. Say Kate? Did I see you at the mall about a half hour ago?"
This time I think she choked! "Uhhh...maybe...but I didn't see you...were you there?"
"Not really, but when I saw you in the parking lot, I figured out what you were doing there."
"You did?"
"Yeah...I figured you were getting me a present for the party tonight. I even figured out what you're giving me!"
"Huh? You figured that out from seeing me in the parking lot?"
"Yep...I figured out you're giving me my freedom! What a surprise, Kate! That's really thoughtful of you!"
The silence on the line was deafening! It was a very long thirty seconds...
"Yes," she paused again for maybe ten more seconds, "I...I guess you're right, George... I'm sorry...but you're right."
This time I paused for a while, "Know what, Kate?"
"What?"
"We had fun, didn't we!" It was a statement, not a question.
"Yeah, we did...George? I AM sorry!"
"Awww don't be," I chuckled, "being sorry doesn't make you any less of a bitch, ya know!"
Katie was silent again. "I suppose I deserved that."
"Fuckin' 'eh you did! Well...I'll see ya around!"
"Good-bye, George, I...well I..."
"Yeah, I know...you're sorry! Bye Kate," and I hung up. The silence was deafening again.
That night I probably wasn't the best guest of honor at my own party. Taking advantage of my new legal drinking age, the open bar was attacked early and often. The next day I woke up around 1:00 pm and there didn't seem to be a point to getting up; so after taking a piss I buried my head under the pillow and thought about Katie's beautiful ass (that I would never fuck again) for another hour and then finally headed into the kitchen.
