It was just the three of us celebrating Bobbi's birthday this year. Usually Steve and I joined Bobbi and Jack, but Steve was meeting with clients in a different city this weekend. He often was.
It's not as if I suspect him of having a girl in every port, mind you -- he's really business-focused and I'm sure his business meetings are exactly what he says they are -- but still, this was taking a toll on our marriage and if I were a gambling woman, I wouldn't bet on us still being married by Bobbi's next birthday.
Anyway, Bobbi's birthday. Bobbi, my best friend in the world. And Jack, by now I guess my second-oldest friend.
We'd just come back from dinner -- where Jack remarked, after toasting Bobbi, that every guy in the place was jealous of him walking in with a hot woman on either side -- and stopped off at their place for cake. And maybe a couple of drinks, which was okay since we lived right down the block and if I had one too many, Jack could just walk me home.
Bobbi said she wanted me to see Jack's gift to her. As always, she had to wait until 10:32, the minute she was actually born. A tradition n Bobbi's family from before I even met her.
At 10:30 we began watching the clock, and shortly after it hit 10:31, we began counting down the seconds as we do on New Year's Eve. When the clock hit 10:32, Jack and I shouted "Happy Birthday!" as he gave her a quick kiss.
As I came over to give her a hug, she said to him "Geez, do you call that a kiss? What am I, too old for you now?" I started to give her a kiss on the cheek to accompany the hug, and she moved her head so our lips briefly touched. I wasn't even sure it was intentional.
"Okay, I'll give you another chance," she said to Jack, an this time he kissed her with some more feeling. "Better, but let's see what Christine's got."
"Christine?" I asked.
"Come on, it's my birthday. I deserve a good kiss."
I didn't stop her when she kissed me on the lips. I even kissed back a bit.
I was holding back, though: I'd always had a bit of a girl-crush on Bobbi, nothing serious, but I certainly didn't want to get carried away. That would turn slight-tipsy fun into terrible embarrassment
really
quickly.
"Okay," she said. "A bit better. Your turn, Jack."
He gave her a better kiss this time, pulling her close and letting his hand slide down to her ass.
"Much better," Bobbi said, then walked back to me. "Let's see you top that."
"Are you sure?" I said with a laugh, thinking she was kidding too. "I'm pretty damn good."
"Let's put your mouth where your mouth is," she said, kissing me. Well, if it's a challenge she wants...
I could feel her tongue working its way through my lips, and I entangled it with my own tongue. At the same time I casually brushed my hand along the outside of her left breast and realized she must have changed out of her bra after we got back here.
We separated. "Wow," Bobbi said, "you're definitely in the lead now."
"Go for it, Jack," I said.
Jack began by kissing her, and at the same time unbuttoning the top few buttons in the front of Bobbi's dress, just far enough to show she couldn't have been wearing a bra.. "Jack, no," she said, gesturing over at me. But I'm not sure her heart was into the warning.
"Christine told me to go for it," he said.
"I did," I agreed, wondering how far he was planning to go.
He kissed his way from her collarbone down the exposed top half of her cleavage.
"I think we have a winner," I said. I didn't know whether to be relieved or disappointed.
"Are you sure?" Bobbi said with a mischievous smile, not re-buttoning her dress.
"Okay," I said, walking over to her. I wrapped my arms around her and kissed her, our tongues wrestling one another like before; but this time, I lifted the back of her dress and put a hand firmly on her ass, pulling us closer. She seemed to be wearing very brief panties, and I had my hands on a lot more skin than cotton.
I wasn't completely sure how she'd respond; but she had challenged me to top Jack, after all.
She responded by lifting my own dress and doing the same.
I hoped Jack couldn't see my panties, and I wished I'd worn
nicer
panties tonight.
When we both came up for air, Bobbi smiled and said "Wow."
"Was that okay?" I'm not sure whether I was asking whether she liked it, or whether I'd just fucked up our friendship.
"You're back in the lead," she said.
I made sure my dress was smoothed down properly, and wondered whether Bobbi knew exactly how close her hand had come to my pussy. That could have been embarrassing for all of us.
"Okay," Jack said as he stepped behind his wife. She was facing me, so I didn't notice right away that he was also lifting the back of her dress. He turned her head so they could kiss, all the time he was grinding himself against the back of her panties.
If I didn't see they were wearing clothing, I'd have thought they were fucking.
Soon her dress had had been pulled high enough in the front that I could see her panties had a very narrow crotch. I already knew knew she kept herself trimmed but if I hadn't, I'd have known now.
"Uh, maybe I should get home," I said. Don't ask me whether it was to give them their privacy or because I could hear my vibrator calling me from down the block.
