then Jason. Rebecca’s stomach fluttered again with the thought of Jason. She wondered if she had ‘jumped out of the frying pan and into the fire’.
Although the weekend had been amazing, come this morning when she was alone, the remorse and self-doubt had started to take over. What had she done? What were they doing? His best friend ‘Oh God ’ she thought. She had given in far too quickly. She had let her emotions and desires overcome her as she thought again about his gorgeous face, his kisses, Oh God: her self-respect was completely gone now. ‘ I feel like such a whore’ she thought shaking her head.
Lucy had been chatting away when she realized Rebecca was not responding to anything she had said.
“What’s up Becs?” she asked; concern in her voice.
“Oh nothing,” said Rebecca trying hard to sound normal.
”Come on I know you. What’s happened?”
There was silence at the other end of the phone.
“Rebecca Keane! What happened? TELL ME!” Lucy said sternly a montage of scenario’s flashing into her head all mainly involving that shithead David.
‘Nah, she would have called’ she thought dismissing those.
“Hold on I’m closing my office door,” said Rebecca. Lucy heard the door close.
Rebecca took a long deep breath and spoke...
“Right, you ready? God my mouth is so dry. Right... I slept with Jason...All weekend, he left for work this morning from mine!” Lucy squealed with laughter in response.
“What the fuck? You are FUCKING joking,” she laughed. “And you have the cheek to call me a dirty girl” taunting Rebecca as she laughed. Rebecca cringed inside.
“Right... Lunch... I’m on my way” Lucy commanded.
Rebecca could hear Lucy moving obviously grabbing her bag and coat in the background of her office.
“Lucy, I’ve a stack of work to do. I can’t,” Rebecca protested
“Sod that for a game of solders. NO excuses, I’ll come to you ....with Sushi ....AND! .... I’m NOT asking I’M TELLING YOU....see you soon, you naughty girl.” She teased.
And with that Lucy hung up before Rebecca could protest any further leaving her starring into the receiver of the phone.
In what seemed like no time at all Lucy was there.
“And I bear chopsticks and Sake,” she proclaimed standing in Rebecca’s office door.
Lucy entered kicking the door shut with the back of her heels, she made for Rebecca’s desk. She walked to the desk setting the brown paper bag down in front of them both. Plopping herself down on the chair opposite, pointing the chopsticks at Rebecca.
“So spill....and I’ll play mother.” Lucy reached into the bag and started dividing the contents between them as she looked at Rebecca waiting for her to speak.
“Oh God Lucy. Where do I start?” Rebecca looked extremely sheepish, her hands at her temples.
“With Sake of course,” replied Lucy as she poured the first of the two small ceramic flasks called tokkuri into the Choko cups in front of her.
As the Sake flowed, so did the story of what had happened with Jason, her first orgasm and the amazing weekend she had spent in his arms.
”Hmm, I see where you’re coming from. The revenge thing, I like it. It’s not like he doesn’t deserve it!” said Lucy. “If that’s what you’re doing.” Lucy shrugged her shoulders.
Rebecca was shocked, she hadn’t even thought about it like that. The thought of it made her feel cheap and dirty.
“Oh god, NO! Lucy. It wasn’t like that at ALL! It was lovely, tender,” Rebecca protested.
Lucy looked at Rebecca, pointing her chopsticks again at Rebecca as she spoke.
“But it’s a highly complicated situation this Jason thing. That’s the reality of it sorry, but you’ve spent the last seven years in a relationship tied to David. Yes? You were loyal to the end playing good wifey, wifey.”
She also wanted to add and where did that get you? But decided against it going for another approach when she saw Rebecca’s reactions to what she was saying.
“What your 23. You’re going
