The car ride to Jake's was quick and painless. His third story two room apartment was relatively nearby to her own. Crystal was both nervous and excited having never been to his place before. The anxiety helped her forget about the trouble she now faced with the rent. It was turning into a welcomed distraction.
Katie had been nothing but smiles the entire time. She was clearly happy to finally be hanging out with her and eager for them to get to know each other better. It had been long overdue since Crystal had moved in. She had to admit that she was happy to have another woman to talk to, despite their four year age difference.
The apartment was nice but, to no surprise, showed plenty of signs that it was the home of a single man. It was well furnished but covered in the clutter of various video game systems, wires, and controllers. However, the living room was not where three of them would be spending their time together, and the bedroom proved to be much more tidy.
Katie had made herself comfortable on Jake's bed while he sat at the desk adjacent and woke up the dormant computer. The two monitors lit up, one displaying a fantasy RPG he was playing while the other showed a paused video on YouTube.
Katie patted the space next to her on Jake's bed, inviting Crystal to take a seat. Crystal was slightly hesitant of sitting on another man's bed, as it seemed protestantly taboo, especially with it being her first time over. However, she was comfortable enough to push through it.
Jake pressed play on the video and lowered the volume so the three could converse. "What kind of video games do you like?" He asked as he spun around in his chair. His knees touching the edge of the bed.
Crystal took in the man asking the questions. He was tall, dark skinned with long black hair. He sported glasses to fit in a true nerd stereotype while his flip flops and hemp fabrics advertised the fact that he was a stoner.
"Most," she responded as her attention was drawn to Katie who had pulled her pipe and grinder from her bag. "Final Fantasy, Soulsborne, Crash and I used to play WoW religiously."
Jake perked up. "Horde or Alliance?"
"Horde."
Jake hit his knee and shook his head. "Damn," he said. He clearly ran Alliance.
Katie passed the now packed bowl to Crystal who took it. It had been a long time since she smoked. One thing her and Dillon had in common was how the high affected them. She recalled how hard and unyielding his dick was as she rode him like a high end prostitute. That thing wouldn't bend or go down until the high started to recede.
"I'm really glad you decided to hang out," Katie said with a childlike glee. Her face was practically lit up with genuine joy.
The three of them passed the pipe around until it had cashed out on Katie, or as Dillon would charmingly put it, shat in her mouth. She tapped the charred remains in her hand and brushed it off into an ashtray. She handed the pipe back over to Jake who began to pack another.
"So," Katie started. "How's things with you and Dillon?"
"Good," Crystal responded. She was never great with conversation. "How about you and Harry?"
She nodded with a slight shrug. "Alright. Not too much going on," she paused and wondered herself if it were hesitation or something else, but continued, "I actually got to hang out with Dillon yesterday."
"You did?"
Katie nodded. "Yeah, we smoked a bowl and talked for a bit before he went to work. Seems like you guys are doing well."
"Yeah, he just works a lot and hates his job."
A cloud of smoke stained the air between them as Jake exhaled his hit and passed it to his left. Crystal took it with thanks and held it for a moment before taking her turn with it.
"Is he looking for work elsewhere?" Jake asked, taking notice of Crystal's lack of bra. The sides of her pale breasts peaked from the edges of her tank top.
"He says he can't find anywhere that pays as well." She took her hit and noticed Katie fidget by lightly drumming a beat on her thighs. Was she nervous about something, or was it undiagnosed anxiety? Crystal exhaled as she passed the pipe.
"So," Katie said as she took the bowl. "I was going to tell Dillon yesterday but wanted to let you know that I had to catch my dad up on some of his bills this week...and I..." She hesitated with a sigh. "I'm not going to be able to pay rent. I haven't even told Harry yet."
Crystal felt a combination of relief as well as further anxiety. Both Dillon and Harry were always stressing over the bills and now two of the four incomes were coming up short.
"That makes two of us," Crystal said.
"Shit." Katie threw her head into her hands, then changed position and rested her chin on the palm of her hand, anchored by the elbow upon her thigh. "Well, we're going to have to make it up to them somehow. I could cook for them one night!"
It was a good idea. Dillon did love food. Despite his skinny build he ate twice his weight, and Harry's belly told them that would probably fly just fine.
"I don't know," Crystal said. "We've been trying to save up. One night may not be enough."
Jake chimed in. "You guys should just tell them. I'm sure they'll understand. They care about you."
Katie nodded in agreement. "You're right." She laughed. "We're freaking out and over thinking. Let's just smoke some weed, and chill."
The group had finished off the bowl and Jake went ahead and packed another. Crystal had laughed more than Katie had ever witnessed and she felt the bridge she'd been wanting to build fortify. As she watched Crystal talk to Jake about some video game series they had both played, she found herself taking in Crystal's size and body. Katie remembered her discussion with Dillon from the day before and wondered how Crystal could bounce on it like a rocking pornstar and still walk straight.
Katie recalled the time that Crystal and Dillon's door had swung open from the draft of her window. She had been listening to their vigorous grunts as they went to town on each other. Her curiosity had gotten the better of her and she peeked out of her room and saw their profiles as Dillon was on his back with Crystal bouncing her ass up and down on his cock in a craze. She was going like she was Paul Revere and the Brits had landed. She hadn't gotten a good look at the full extent of what Dillon brought to the table. So the news was a shock.
"So you and Dillon go at it a lot," Katie said as Jake and Crystal hit a lull in their conversation.
Crystal turned to her and adjusted so that her body was facing Katie. "We do."
Katie put her arms up, her face going a bit red. "I'm sorry if that was out of bounds, that kinda just slipped out."
"No, no, it's fine. I'm sure you've heard us." Crystal said with a chuckle, going a little red herself. "I mean, we've heard you guys." Which was true, it mostly sounded like panting and heavy breathing with a creaking bed.
"You guys sound hella freaky."
"Freaky?" Jake chimed.
"Like crazed animals," Katie affirmed. She adjusted herself in her seat as she felt a pulse in her pussy at the topic. "How do you do it? You must get sore?"
Crystal giggled and rolled her eyes a bit. "Yeah, he always knocks my cervix around. I've bruised countless times." She sighed. "But, I'm not complaining."
