corsets, Jess had purchased a leather, ‘Oh I mean business’ flogger with a big grin.
    “Yee ha, I’ve wanted to see how one of these feels for ages, and Sir told me to get one if I saw one. Want to try it out?”
    She’d handed it to Kath, who even just by holding it felt the familiar, ‘Oh, God, I’m turned on’ quiver in her channel and the dampness on her thighs. “On you?” Kath grinned. She and Jess had been lovers as well as friends in years gone by. Jess laughed.
    “Er, nope, I reckon the way you’re feeling you could be a bit too enthusiastic there.”
    “You could well be right. I could come by rubbing it over my clit once. I’m so hungry, it’s ridiculous. I tell ya, Jess, no way can this go on much longer, it’s crazy. I’m turning into a sex-starved lunatic. Even a stick of celery had my mind in overdrive. Celery for goodness sake. Even Ethan McCormick was better endowed than that and we all went eeww when he waved it in our faces.” The remembrance of a schoolboy prank had them both doubled up. “But Jeff? Okay, so not a stick of celery.”
    “TMI, love, that’s my brother you’re talking about. Let’s say, er, cucumber?”
    “Argh, don’t. Courgette? Marrow?” Kath had giggled. “I’m not telling. On another note, I know he’s been to see Emma, I saw the leaflet she gave him, and still he’s holding back. Oh I know it’s ’cause of your mum, but this is thirty years on, and I’m not her. Grief, I don’t want to scene, nothing remotely like it, but I do want to come.” She’d opened her hands in a ‘why this’ gesture. “I mean we don’t have to have full on, all bells ringing stuff, but a nice slow play and come would hit the spot. Hell, the nearest I’ve ever come to being ill was when I had my tonsils out when I was seven. That’s it. No flu, no broken legs, touch wood, not even chicken pox or measles. I’m ridiculously healthy.”
    “Except for tossing your cookies every morning,” Jess had pointed out.
    “Yes, well.” Kath knew she’d sounded overly defensive, but, dammit, wasn’t that different? “That’s easing off. It’s not every morning, and anyway it’s part of being pregnant for some people. And it doesn’t mean I can’t come. I was icky. Not too bad, but icky.”
    “So was my mum, though as far as I remember it was a stay in bed twenty-four seven thing with her. So cut Jeff some slack, eh? That’s what he knows, and however much you say it’s not you…well, Mum said she was just tired, and it wasn’t so. No wonder he’s chary. So please, bite the bit and wait. After all, how long ‘til you’re thirteen weeks now?”
    “Too long. Oh, okay, about two and a half… Oh, okay, three weeks now. So say this time next month I can jump him, and oh, God, do I need it. It’s all well and good saying no penetration, but no climax either? Blimey, Jess, I could hump the pillow if I thought he’d not look at me in that disappointed Dom way. He’s decided no sex for either of us, and I’m damned sure we’d both sleep better if I could at least give him a blowjob and he went down on me. Dammit, I’m going round in circles with this, I sound like a carousel at the fair. One with a broken record blaring out. One minute I’m okay no problem, I can wait and the next I want to come now.”
    “Hormones,” Jess had said.
    “I know,” Kath had wailed and rolled her eyes. “Why not a wee tiny love in, for fuck’s sake?”
    “Because he’s read enough to be dangerous, and not enough to be knowledgeable.”
    I believe that , Kath thought as she moved two ‘pregnancy and what to expect’ books from the dressing table and got ready for their visitors. Nevertheless she hadn’t got it in her to be angry. It might not be what she wanted, but the lack of sex was becoming easier. Not that she’d admit it, but he did have her best interests at heart. Hers and Bump’s. Kath ran her hand over the bump that, to her mind, was growing apace and surely much
