It was a week after Ali and I went away for a very intense weekend. I masturbated every night thinking about the things Ali did in front of me, as well as the things we did together. It changed me, for sure, and it was a little scary.
Ali called me on Thursday night and said, "Hey sweetie! How's the week been?"
"The usual corporate rat race. How about you?" I asked
"Bad, but last weekend gave me new energy. I was in Chicago for a couple of nights on business. I'm exhausted again. We have to get away to the house again soon."
"Definitely," I replied.
"So, Elle, I have an idea," Ali said.
"Oh no... Ali's got an idea!" I teased.
"Yes, well, remember I told you I'd take you to a great toy store?"
"You mean sex toy store," I interrupted.
"Yes! There is the most amazing place, and I made a reservation for you on Saturday." She was animated and pleased with herself to be doing something so thoughtful for me.
"Uh... well... what do you mean 'reservation?'"
"It's a special place that helps you choose the right toy for you. They'll even custom make them if you want."
"Hmm. Wow," I said, sort of unsure of what I was getting myself into.
"You don't sound into it," Ali said, a little plaintively.
"No, no, sweetie. I'm just a little nervous about what it's all about," I said directly.
"Do you trust me?" Ali asked
"Yes."
"Did you masturbate this week?" She asked boldly
"Yeah, like every day," I said, almost exasperated with how horny I'd been.
"Did you wish it could have been more fun?" She was on a roll.
"I guess. It wasn't as exciting as last weekend, for sure"
"Well, girl, you need better toys, for a starter. Please trust me and come Saturday. Come over to my house at 10am and I'll drive you there." She was insistent.
"Ok, I'll trust you," I said. I guess I'd trusted her a lot so far!
SATURDAY AT THE SHOP
I drove up to Ali's house and parked. I knocked on the door and she answered quickly. As one would expect, she was nude, with a waist chain.
"You look relaxed," I said.
"Yeah, doing my usual nudity thing," she said, flashing a bright smile. "I was just trying on some new things that I bought last night at the mall. Want to see?"
"Sure," I said, as Ali disappeared into her bedroom.
She came out a minute later wearing a silky see-through baby doll with high heels. No panties. The top barely came below her pussy.
"Looks great," I offered. "Very sexy. Show me more."
"You mean of my body or my outfits?"
"Outfits. I can see your body pretty well," I joked
"Ok, I only have one more." Ali disappeared and returned in a pale green sparkly top with a dark green belt. High heels. Nothing else.
"I like it. It really brings out your skin tone." I chuckled and said, "Especially good when there's lots of skin"
Ali laughed and went back to the room. She came out in a green sun dress.
"So are you ready? Let's go!" Ali was so excited to be taking me to this place. I was already wet following her fashion show.
As we drove over to "the toy store," Ali said, "So, did I tell you about what I did in Chicago?"
"No, what?" I asked
"Well, I had the morning off, so I was masturbating in my hotel room but had left the door unlocked. I was sitting on one of the chairs in my suite with my legs spread really wide and the maid keyed in."
I looked at her with wide eyes. My mouth fell open.
"Yeah, really! She was completely unfazed. I didn't stop. I just kept masturbating and said, 'you can come in and clean up, if you don't mind my doing this.' She came in and cleaned up while I masturbated. It was amazing. I came so hard, right after she left."
"Oh my," I said, "That really takes guts. I could never do that."
"I think it happens all the time in hotels, although I'd bet it happens less often that they barge in on women doing it," Ali surmised.
We drove up to the "store." It was a nondescript although pretty converted house in a simple mixed business/residential neighborhood. We parked in back and entered the building through the back. The waiting room was elegant and still comfortable. The receptionist was beautiful, a stunning redhead wearing a very short skirt and a somewhat translucent black top. Ali gave my name to the receptionist, who made a call.
We sat on the plush couch for a few minutes. I read the brochure and discovered it had an equally nondescript name: "SoloWorks." It described itself as a "haven for women and men" to "outfit their solo sexual adventures." I thought it was interesting that it also served men.
A beautiful brunette came into the reception area and introduced herself as Sarah. She was wearing a tight black top, showing off her perfect breasts. And she was just wearing smooth grey seam-free panties and high heels. I shook her hand as she said, "You must be Elle. Hi Ali!" Apparently Ali had been here before.
"So before we go back, I thought I'd give you a little introduction and let you know what's going to happen. First, I assume you're here to find some good masturbation aids?" Sarah was smiling earnestly.
I looked at Ali and then at Sarah and nodded in the affirmative.
"Great, so, we want you to feel totally comfortable here and I'll be your guide in this journey. I'm your consultant, and I'll help you with all aspects of choosing a design or designs for you. Ali, are you going to be here while we do this?"
Ali looked at me, and I said, "Yes, definitely. We're totally comfortable with each other."
"Good. I'm glad. So the first thing we'll do is go to a fitting room and talk about what you need. I'll examine you and talk to you about your requirements and masturbation habits and then we'll go to the "showroom," which is where all the toys are kept. There, I'll help you pick out some things to try. Obviously you'll get very aroused during this process, and I'm here to make you as relaxed as possible. Some women are exceptionally private and don't want to go to the showroom for fear of being seen by others, but as you know, Ali, this is a very discreet place, so I encourage you not to fear that step. But whatever suits you is fine, Ok?"
"Yep," I said brightly.
"Ok, so let's go back to the fitting room," Sarah said.
THE FITTING ROOM
We walked through a set of doors into a long hallway. It was sort of laid out like a small hotel or bed and breakfast. We approached a room and entered it. It was a beautiful, tastefully decorated room. A small day bed went along one wall and in the middle of the room there was a raised chair with stirrup-like platforms in front of it, presumably for a persons' feet. Attached to the room was a sizable bathroom with a shower.
"So, here we are. We'll be spending a while in here. This is the fitting room. It's where we try all the things out that I will help you choose, so that we can find the best thing for you. Now, Elle, if you really need to freshen up, there's the bathroom, but... I mean, don't be too concerned because you'll probably get very wet and messy anyway. And I'm very used to a variety of female odors, so, on my behalf, please, please don't be overly concerned or vain about how your vagina is."
"Ok. Well I guess I'm ok. I showered this morning. Just tell me if I need to freshen up," I said, a little sheepishly
"I will. Now typically our clients wear a specially designed smock during the exam and outfitting. It provides easy access for me, catches extra vaginal fluids, and also allows you to be covered when we go to the showroom. It's hanging right there, so, unless you just want to be fully nude during this, I'll leave the room and let you change in comfort."
"Ok, thanks. I'll try it," I said, nervously.
"Ok, be back in a few minutes," Sarah said as she opened the door.
I stood up and looked nervously at Ali as I approached the hanging garment.
"Don't worry sweetie, you're going to like it. Sarah will make you feel really comfortable."
Ali helped me remove my clothes, and helped me on with the smock. It was a tunic sort of thing, white and cottony. It was fairly short, and it was slit up the sides to about waist height. There was a small piece of Velcro at the hem in the front, and a matching piece was in the mid section. The top of it had shoulder straps but they were tie-straps, so you could release the top down, exposing your upper body.
Sarah came back in and made sure I was comfortable. She offered us drinks and went to retrieve them.
When she got back, she said, "Ok, so let's chat. Obviously you like to masturbate. Tell me a little bit more about what you're looking for and what you like to do and in what situations you make love to yourself."
I slowly got started. "Well, I masturbate a lot more now that I don't have a boyfriend. Ali and I have masturbated together a few times, and I guess I would like to know more about the options to me to enhance the feeling. Last weekend, I got to try a couple of her toysβa butt plug, a dildo and a vibrating harness thing."
"And how did you like those?" Sarah asked.
"They were great. I'm pretty inexperienced at using toys. I have one vibrator. I'm not sure what else there really is."
"So did you like anal penetration?"
