The Wedding Guests
By The_Shadow_Rising
Quiet clouds lazily drifted across the sky as late afternoon began to turn to night-time in the City of Taboo Dreams. Warmth permeated the air and filled the residents of the City with a playfulness that only sparked hotter with the twinkling of the neon lights flashing on in places.
Shorehaven was alive and about to go out to play. And everyone knew it. People were getting ready to head out for the night, whether to a bar, a nightclub, or to their friends’ places. Fun was on the agenda, and so was a lot of sex. Beautiful girlfriends headed out, ready to kneel in front of their boyfriend’s best friends when something happened, eager to take their cocks into their mouths. Desperate to swallow cum.
Hot wives leaned over tables and counter tops so that their husband’s bosses could plough them wildly from behind. Naughty fiancées looked at their engagement rings as they were fucked into their beds by their fiancé’s rivals. And sexy mothers, sisters, and daughters cried out into the night as pleasure overtook them as they had sex with their sons, brothers, and fathers.
Shorehaven was where dreams came true, and the sexier those dreams were the better. In one house in Gainborough the warmth was gentle yet persistent, and one person’s dreams were about to become a reality. For that person, their night was about to become wonderful and their future bright. Little did they know what they would unleash by the power of their own dreams becoming a reality.
In that house Noah Young was sitting on the edge of his sofa, eagerly watching the game of baseball on the television. He was enrapt by it. He couldn’t look away even if his sexy girlfriend of three years walked in naked! Which she wouldn’t do as she wasn’t there at the moment. But still, the point stood.
The only thing Noah really paid attention to other than the game was his best friend, Logan Reid, sitting next to him and just as eagerly chanting on the opposite team. He couldn’t not pay attention to his friend when Logan was shouting out loud and almost jumping up and down in his seat. He got very vocal when it came to baseball.
But Noah was content. At least for now he was. He had nothing else to think about except for the fun night ahead and the great game on the television. That was when Logan spoke.
“Looks like you’re going to lose this one, Noah. The game’s almost finished and your team is down. Ready for the walk of shame?” The tall, brown-haired man said.
“It isn’t over yet, my man. We’ve still got a chance.” Noah replied confidently. “All we need is a couple more home runs and we’re golden.”
“Well you won’t get them. That’s just wishing for great things. Be realistic.” Logan responded jovially, already thinking he had won.
“Oh yeah? You sound pretty confident. Got something riding on the game, have we?” Noah laughed.
“As a matter of fact, yes. I put a hundred down for the Soarers to win and they’re going to kick ass. Just look at how they’ve performed already!” Logan replied good-humouredly.
Noah looked away from the television long enough to gaze at his friend, who smiled at him smugly.
“You put a hundred on this game?” Noah asked disbelievingly.
“Yeah, makes the game that much more fun to watch when you’ve got something riding on it.” Logan answered amusedly, “There’s nothing like the adrenaline of knowing you’re going to win big as well as watch your favourite team come out on top.”
For a moment, Noah looked at his friend. He hadn’t thought Logan was the gambling type. He certainly wasn’t. But he did wonder just what that feeling was like if Logan said it was exhilarating. Maybe he was onto something.
“Yeah, well I’m not stupid enough to lose my money on a game.” Noah said prudently.
“You’re just scared. Live a little. Come on, I’ll bet with you now if you’re so confident that your team can make a comeback this late in the game.” Logan jeered playfully.
Noah thought about his chances and how he didn’t like to gamble. The game was almost done and the odds of his team winning were a bit remote. But still, something in him wanted to show his friend how wrong he was. Something wanted to believe in his team and to take a chance.
But if he lost money to Logan, who may be his best friend, but Ashlei, Noah’s long-term girlfriend, didn’t like him very much, he was sure to get into trouble. So he wracked his brain in the few seconds his friend smirked at him, thinking he’d won.
That look was almost unbearable, and so was the smugness radiating off his friend as if the game was already done with. That irked at Noah and he wanted to do something to wipe the smile off his friend’s face. That was when a brilliant idea came to the dark-haired boyfriend of three years. He did believe in his team, and they could win. He just had to have faith. The game wasn’t over yet, and his team was the better team overall.
The idea that came to him was so refreshingly beautiful that Noah almost laughed. He did grin broadly all of a sudden and Logan eyed him curiously.
“What’s up with you?” Logan asked confidently.
“You’re that confident that you’ll win?” Noah asked secretively.
“Yeah. This one’s already in the bag.” His best friend answered surely.
“Then I tell you what, I’ll make a bet with you.” Noah said assertively, feeling the rush of gambling suddenly pulse through him and the thrill of hoping that his team would come back and win. “If you’re not too scared, that is?”
“Scared? Of you? Bring it on, boy.” Logan replied amusedly.
“Ok. If my team loses I will clean your house and car for a month.” Noah said calmly.
“And if you win? However unlikely that is.” Logan responded sarcastically.
“If I win then you have to go to this wedding with Ashlei instead of me.” Noah continued on.
“What?” Logan asked confusedly.
“There is this wedding coming up next week that Ashlei and I have to go to. We haven’t RSVPed yet but we can’t really get out of it and neither of us wants to go. So if I win you will go instead of me and I get to kick back and relax. Then you can deal with Ash being in a bad mood all day.” Noah replied simply.
For a moment Logan looked at Noah dumbfounded. Then he spoke up.
“But Ash doesn’t even like me.” He said as if stating the obvious.
“She’ll get over it. It’ll just be another irritation in her day of being there. She doesn’t want to go either.” Noah said as if it were the most obvious thing in the world, “I’ll RSVP straight away tonight if you lose and then she’ll have no choice but to go with you. She’ll be fine. She might just be a little sulky is all. She really doesn’t want to go. But we can’t really get out of it. At least one of us should have a good day, don’t you think?”
Logan seemed to mull that over for a second. Glancing at the television he looked back at Noah.
“But I don’t want to go either. Weddings aren’t my thing. Unless I’m nailing a bridesmaid. And Ash doesn’t like me as is, she’ll be a nightmare to be around.” He said defensively.
“That’s what you get if you lose. I thought you were confident you’d win?” Noah asked feeling a little giddy from the gambling. He wasn’t used to this and he felt right proud of himself having come up with this idea.
He was confident his team could win, and that meant not going to that stupid wedding! He couldn’t wait!
Prodding Logan’s ego like that made Noah’s best friend puff up like a proud cockerel.
“You think I’m not!? We’re creaming your ass. Ok, deal. If I win you clean my house and car for a month and if you win I go to this stupid wedding with Ash.” Logan agreed and Noah grinned.
“Deal.” He said, and his giddiness only seemed to double as if the world had suddenly changed around him.
Something seemed to happen anyway, as no sooner had the words left his mouth than his team hit a home run. Jumping off the chair with a cheer, Noah sat back down glued to the television.
“Lucky hit.” Logan said confidently, but his poise quickly lessened as Noah’s team hit another, and then another home run as their batters stepped up to the plate.
It was like watching something heavenly, Noah thought. Everything seemed to go right for him and soon the game was ending and Noah’s team were up by more than they had been down before the bet had been made. And they had won.
Noah jumped up from his seat with a shout of pleasure.
“YES!” He yelled, “In your face!” He added to his down-trodden friend.
Logan just sat there with both a surprised look on his face and a look of loss. He had never seen a comeback like it. It was a freak thing and he was sure that the team would have lost if they hadn’t made that stupid bet! Now he had lost a hundred as well as having committed to going to this wedding with his best friend’s girlfriend.
“Yeah, yeah.” He said disheartened.
“This is what you get for not believing!” Noah exclaimed happily. More so when he realised what this meant qua the bet: he wouldn’t have to go to that stupid wedding anymore! “I guess this means you’ll need a new suit.” He laughed, and Logan looked up at him with a hang dog look.
Sighing Logan leaned back on the sofa.
“Great. Just perfect.” He said despondently.
“I’m going to RSVP right now!” Noah announced as he moved over to where the computer was by the wall, “And I better phone the hotel and change the room booking. This is great!”
Doing just that Noah jumped onto the computer and opened his email while Logan watched on with a lost look in his eyes. Noah typed a few words and then opened up the wedding invitation and clicked ‘reply’.
“Yes, we will be attending.” He muttered pleasantly as he clicked the ‘Affirm attendance’ button. “You will be, anyway. I won’t be.” He said half to himself and half to his friend.
Logan just slumped a little more in his chair. Ashlei was not going to like this. She was going to be a nightmare to be around. Oh, there were good things to being around her – she was hot as hell, for one – but she didn’t like Logan at all, and everything Logan did seemed to grate on her nerves. She would be staring daggers at him the whole time!
“That’s that done. Now for the hotel.” Noah said, feeling good about himself, as he picked up the phone and began dialling. “Hello? Yes, I’d like to change a reservation. For Noah Young and Ashlei Scott. Yes. Yes, I’d like to switch the double room to two singles if that’s possible? Oh? Oh, ok. Yes, that would be perfect. Under two different names. Yes. Logan Reid and Ashlei Scott. Yes that’s it. Thanks. Perfect. Ok then, thank you. Bye.”
In no time at all Noah had the room changed and the invitation replied to, and he was leaning back in the computer chair.
“All done now. Looks like you’ve got a wedding to go to.” He said smugly and Logan eyed him dubiously.
“Thanks.” Logan said unimpressed and Noah just laughed.
Now he just had to tell Ashlei when she got back. He knew she wouldn’t be happy but there wasn’t much she could do now he had replied to the invitation about going.
This was going to be the best day off ever. Noah’s dreams were about to come true. No stupid wedding with people he didn’t like. He could put up with Ash’s mood for that for a while. She would be fine later. He would just need to make it up to her. Which was a million times better than actually going to the fool thing.
Yes, Noah Young was on Cloud Nine. And Shorehaven continued to turn towards the lustful.
- - -
Ashlei Scott walked pleasantly through the warm evening air as she headed home. She had had a good day today and everything was going as planned. At least so far anyway. She was just looking forward to a nice meal and a quiet night in with her boyfriend. Maybe some sexy time for the two of them. That could be fun.
Turning the corner onto her street, Ashlei made her way towards her house feeling content. Nothing could ruin her night now. Life was just going her way for once.
As she walked up to her house, she opened the door and stopped. There were voices coming from the lounge. So much for her quiet night in with her boyfriend, she thought. But still, seeing people was also nice, so she looked forward to going in and seeing who it was.
That feeling lasted the whole of the time it took her to reach the door to the lounge and open it. Once she saw who it was her stomach dropped and all thoughts of a peaceful evening were gone.
“Hey babe. Hey Logan.” She said, first sweetly and then not so much.
Both of the guys smiled at her, Logan a little too friendly for her boyfriend’s best friend, but that was always how he was. It was the reason she no longer felt like things were going her way. Logan Reid was a lecher and a terrible flirt, with her especially, despite her being his best friend’s girlfriend. And he creeped Ashlei out. That and she just couldn’t stand him because of how he was. Any instant to hit on her, look down her top, slap her ass, or anything, he tried it on, even if Noah was nearby! And Ashlei hated him for it.
Hated him more because Noah didn’t seem to ever see any of the bad things he did. Though he believed her and called his friend out he was never forceful enough to put his friend off, and Logan – slimy as he was – was always back to his usual tricks before long. Ashlei shuddered and folded her arms beneath her breasts as if to protect herself. All it did was emphasise their full roundness though, especially in the semi-low-cut top that she had on. Her jeans covered her ass, but they emphasised it too in its tightness.
Shaking herself, Ashlei thought she shouldn’t have to worry about what she was wearing around who. Logan should just be a normal guy, not a pervert. But he was who he was and unfortunately there was no changing him. She would just have to avoid him tonight, which meant a night alone for her.
Sighing she looked over at Noah who looked all cute and attractive, and focused on him. That brought a smile to her beautiful face. And made her feel somewhat better about the night ahead. Logan couldn’t do much with Noah sitting right there and she just wouldn’t let herself be alone with him. She would be attached to her boyfriend all night. That was perfect.
Ashlei’s good cheer, however, was about to be ruined. As were her plans for the night ahead.
“What have you been up to?” She asked Noah, plainly ignoring his friend.
“Oh, just watching the game. You know, hanging out. Having a laugh.” Noah replied good-humouredly.
“Did your team win?” Ashlei asked with genuine interest. She already knew the answer by how Noah was acting. He wouldn’t be this upbeat if his team had lost. But it was cute to humour him.
“Yeah, epically! You should have seen it, Ash. Home runs almost straight to the end.” Noah excitedly explained.
Ashlei smiled warmly at her boyfriend. He was cute when he got all excited about things.
“That’s good.” She replied honestly, and then added with what she thought was veiled intent enough for Noah to pick up on but not Logan, “So are we still having that meal tonight?”
Noah looked at her a little confusedly and then glanced so quickly at Logan you might not have noticed it before he smiled back at her deliberately.
“Not sure we’ll be able to. Logan’s hanging out for the night.” He said without any veiling of her intent at all. She could have smacked him for being so blatant. He had no tact. Even if Logan didn’t deserve any.
The news of his best friend hanging around all night put a dampener on Ashlei’s mood. And that she wouldn’t get her alone time meal with Noah because of it just soured her mood even further.
Sitting on the arm of the sofa, away from where Logan was sitting, Ashlei spoke.
“I guess we can have it another night then.” She said, and Noah nodded. It was then that Ashlei noticed he was sitting in the computer chair rather than by his friend in front of the television. “What were you doing on the computer?” She asked curiously.
She shouldn’t have. Her whole night was about to go downhill.
“Oh, yeah. I was sorting out the wedding invitation for next week.” Noah said with a mix of cheerfulness and clear resistant restraint. “You may not like this. But I RSVPed that you’ll be going.”
Ashlei felt her heart sink and her mood sour even more. She had known this was going to happen, that she would have to go to this wedding despite not wanting to, but hearing her boyfriend say it only made her stomach turn even more. She really didn’t want to go. But it had to be done.
“I phoned up about the hotel as well. So that’s all booked and paid for.” He said almost hesitantly yet seeming quite happy with himself at the same time.
Ashlei knew there was more from how he was behaving, and somehow it was something he liked but knew she wouldn’t. She just waited for him to say more but he didn’t.
“At least I’ll have you there to get me through it.” She said finally and Noah put on a sympathetic look.
“Actually, babe, I need to talk to you about that. I won’t be going.” Noah said in definite tones, and Ashlei felt a mixture of confusion and sourness. That only got worse as he explained. “Logan will be going with you. You see I made a bet with him and…” He began to explain calmly, as if it were the most normal thing in the world.
Ashlei’s insides sank and twisted at the same time as Noah told her what had happened. He had made a bet with Logan to not go, and WON. It wasn’t like he had bet this and lost, he had actually won and this had been his bet! That she would go to the wedding with his best friend – who she couldn’t stand! – while he stayed at home. Enjoying himself!
And what was worse, he had already booked the hotel rooms – fortunately he had changed them to two rooms rather than one – under Logan’s and her name and RSVPed to the couple getting married, so she couldn’t get out of it and it was set who she was going with!
Ashlei was furious. Not just at having to go to the wedding with Logan of all people, but with her boyfriend for not going, and for setting all this up! On a bet! That he had WON! By the time Noah had finished telling her what had happened she was fuming at him, but unable to actually DO anything to change it! That just made her even more angry.
“So you’re just going to have the time of your life while I’m at this wedding…with your best friend!?” She asked, clearly implying ‘who I can’t stand’ after the last words. This time there was no attempt to veil her intent to Noah or Logan.
Logan just gave her a sympathetic smile. Ashlei cast him a dark look as if this was all his planning all along.
Logan then suddenly thought that if Ashlei was going to not like him anyway then he might as well be himself around her and enjoy the trip as much as he could. After all, she was hot and he would be alone around her. Maybe he could enjoy flirting with her and seeing her all dressed up. That and he might get to bang a bridesmaid while he was there! It may not be so bad after all.
With that thought Noah’s best friend gave Ashlei his most winning smile. The hot girlfriend only rolled her eyes at him, more convinced that he was somehow behind all of this really so he could get her alone.
“It was a fair bet. And they’re your friends getting married, so you have to be there. No need for us both to suffer.” Noah answered comfortingly, only his words just sparked Ashlei off even more.
He just wasn’t going to see how selfish he was being! And to have her go with Logan of all people…knowing that she hated him!...was just worse.
Ashlei couldn’t find more to say to her boyfriend or anything to get out of what he’d done. She was just fuming at him. And his best friend. And so she stood up and turned around, before walking out of the room, slamming the door behind her and going upstairs to her and Noah’s bedroom.
She slammed that door as well.
For a little while the sound from downstairs was a little muted with Noah knowing she was in a bad mood and not wanting to disturb her.
For her, Ashlei just lay on the bed with her arms crossed beneath her large breasts, fuming, and running over everything in her mind.
She was mad at Noah more than she ever had been. And Logan. Because she knew what he would be like the whole day at the wedding. Let alone before. She felt trapped. She knew there was nothing she could do but go now, but she wasn’t going to let Noah get away with it so easily. He would know how pissed off she was by the time she was done!
Spending an hour or so upstairs, Ashlei began to, not really cool off, but focus and accept her situation. The day was going to be terrible anyway. It might as well be terrible with Logan there to make it worse. And Noah, he would pay for making her go through it while he sat at home having the time of his life. On the computer, no doubt. It wouldn’t be so bad if he hadn’t promised her he would go with her! But he had!
After another hour passed Ashlei had calmed down quite a bit, though she was still mad. She heard the front door bang shut and then someone coming up the stairs. As the door opened to let Noah in Ashlei turned over on the bed so that her back was towards him. Noah leaned over and kissed her on the top of her head, to which Ashlei didn’t respond, and then stripped and climbed into bed.
The room was silent and foreboding as night descended, and Ashlei finally fell asleep without a single word to her boyfriend. Oh yes, he was going to know she was pissed at him.
- - -
Almost a week later things had improved between the loving couple. That was unless any mention of Logan or the wedding came up. Noah did his best to avoid the subject like a wise man, but he often slipped up without thinking and Ashlei’s face turned into a thunderhead.
Even so the pair soon got back to a reasonably loving relationship. That was until the day before the wedding. Ashlei was already feeling apprehensive about the following day, which made her mad once again, but it was the fact that today of all days Logan had come over to hang out with Noah again and that reminded the beautiful blonde that she had to spend the next two days with the guy – the next day travelling and the wedding, and the following day after coming home. That put her mood even further down the drain and she couldn’t help but take it out on the person who was responsible for it all; Noah.
So she had spent the majority of the day upstairs in their bedroom fuming. That was until she heard the laughter and joking downstairs.
Ashlei couldn’t help but wonder what those two had to be so happy about when she had to be pissed off. After all, it was Noah’s fault all this was happening and Logan was just an ass and was probably enjoying it all. That soured her mood even further. And so she lay on the bed with her back against the headboard and her arms folded beneath her breasts.
That suddenly flickered something into her mind. The two guys were downstairs having a good time while she was up here essentially sulking! Not only did Noah not pay attention to that and think of her – why would he now after what he’d already done!? – but Ashlei couldn’t help but wonder why she should be spending the day being miserable when they weren’t!?
For a little while that thought flittered through her head. Finally, after a few minutes, Ashlei unfolded her arms and slapped the bed either side of her.
“If they’re going to have fun, I should too.” She muttered to herself and swung her legs over the edge of the bed.
Pushing herself up she walked over to the window and took a look outside, placing her hands on her hips. Now she just had to decide what that meant. She had no idea at first until the warmth of the sun began to soak through the window and bathe her bare legs. Her over-large white t-shirt that she slept in hung to her mid-thigh and the sun felt pleasant against her body, and barely tolerable through the glass. That was when the idea struck.
She would sunbathe today. That was de-stressing and nice, she would do that while the guys had their fun. That way she wouldn’t have to hear them and she wouldn’t be anywhere near Logan. Or Noah, thinking of that. She didn’t want to see her boyfriend right now either.
Yes. A nice day sunbathing would be perfect for her to forget about tomorrow and today and put her in a better mood. At the very least she deserved that.
With that thought in mind, Ashlei smiled at the sun and then turned away from the window, padding over to the wardrobe. She had already had her shower, and she would likely have another one after sunbathing, and so she opened the wardrobe and began digging through her clothes.
Pulling out what she sought, Ashlei closed the wardrobe and turned around to the bed. Without even thinking of the open window she reached down to pull her t-shirt up and over her head, flinging it towards the chair where she usually left it for the night ahead.
Naked, except for her underwear, Ashlei flicked her fingers into the waistband of her panties and began to push them down. Wiggling a little to help her undress, the beautiful blonde stepped out of her underwear and picked them up. Tossing them into the wash bin she turned her attention to the bed and what she had laid out there.
Picking up her bikini bottoms, Ashlei stepped one foot through them and then the other before sliding them up her long, smooth legs and settling them around her hips. The thong bikini bottoms nestled lightly against her waist a little, but mostly they held to her hips as they covered her pussy barely.
Next she picked up the bikini top. Sliding her arms through the loophole of the straps she pulled the top to her chest and reached behind her to hook the two halves together. Then she settled the cups over her large 34D breasts and rearranged the arm straps and the back strap until she felt comfortable.
Now she was ready. But she still had to walk through the house with Logan and Noah, and the latter didn’t deserve a show and the former made her sick to think about. So she reached down to pick up the last item of clothing on the bed; a large, white t-shirt with the Pink Floyd album cover on the front. Pulling it over her head she settled the baggy, low-cut t-shirt over her hips so that it hung to mid-thigh and covered her completely from shoulders to legs.
Turning to look at herself in the mirror she smiled. She still looked good even though she was hidden beneath what was essentially a lowish-cut, thin blanket. Despite its dipping neck not even a hint of cleavage could be seen, though the thin, white fabric hung from her big breasts but there was nothing she could do about that.
She looked good and yet she was hidden from Noah and Logan until she made it outside. What better way to let her boyfriend know she was mad at him than not letting him get a sneak preview of her in her suit?
Tying her long, blonde hair up in a ponytail, Ashlei reached for some sunglasses, put them on, and then found a towel and some sunscreen and headed for the bedroom door.
The laughter and talking suddenly became more real as it loudened when she walked out to the hallway. This was why Ashlei trod carefully and quietly as she made her way to the stairs and down. She didn’t want to alert the two to her until she had to. That and she wanted to know what they were talking about.
It was just stupid guy stuff, it turned out, but still Ashlei gently made her way downstairs and towards the lounge. Once she reached the door she pretended like she hadn’t been sneaking and barged right into the room, as if unconcerned. The talking ceased as if cut by a knife.
“Hey babe!” Noah announced as she walked in and he saw her.
It took her boyfriend a moment to notice what she was wearing but when he did his eyes widened. No doubt he thought she was still in her bed clothes, but wisely he didn’t say anything. He just looked to Logan whose face had gone from a wide smile to a leering grin.
“Hey.” Ashlei replied nonchalantly, as if she was neither mad nor bothered by anything in the world. But not particularly friendly either.
“Hey Ash!” Logan joined in, his eyes travelling to her bare legs and then back up to her face. He couldn’t see anything else clearly and Ashlei was suddenly glad for the t-shirt.
Smiling slightly, almost frostily, in return as her way of replying, Ashlei turned her attention quickly to her boyfriend as he spoke up again. All the while she could feel Logan’s eyes on her. In front of her boyfriend too!
“What you up to?” Noah asked, clearly nervous about what he thought she was wearing and who was there. And speaking without any tact whatsoever.
“Oh, I just thought I’d go and catch some rays while you two are busy.” She answered neutrally.
Logan’s eyes lit up at that, but he still couldn’t see any more of her. So he just contented himself to sip on his beer and look over at her pretty face.
“Oh!” Noah exhaled, almost palpably relaxing as he suddenly realised why she was dressed as she was. Her dislike for Logan was well known to him. Which made his stupid bet even worse. “That’s a great idea. I might join you later.”
“No need. You two have fun.” Ashlei said dismissively and began to pad her way towards the kitchen and back door. Saying no more just emphasised the curtness of her response, and this time Noah seemed to notice it.
“Oh. Ok. Erm. We’ll be here if you want us though.” He said a little offishly. Clearly he knew she was in a bad mood but why and who at he didn’t know. He probably thought it was because of Logan. Which it was, a little. But most of it was him.
“Ok.” Ashlei replied unemotionally. “Have fun.”
She couldn’t help but keep a little tartness in her voice as those two words came out. So she still felt more than a little peeved that her boyfriend could have fun with his best ‘friend’ after making that stupid bet for tomorrow. But why shouldn’t she?
Damn she needed to be away from these two quickly and outside. She was going to slam something if she spent any more time around them.
That was when it happened.
As she headed towards the kitchen, Logan spoke up.
“Hey, Ash. Seeing as you’re going to the kitchen, would you mind bringing me another beer?” He asked calmly. And arrogantly.
Ashlei immediately froze, her back going straight and her eyes widening. Luckily for the two guys neither of them could see her face. It was a mask of indignation and fury.
The cheek of the guy!
“Oh that’s a good idea. Me too, babe. If you don’t mind that is?” Noah had the decency to ask rather than demand, but he still sided with his ‘friend’s’ request instead of her, knowing she wasn’t too happy and that she didn’t like Logan. That put him just slightly ahead of his douchebag associate in her books.
Taking a deep breath, Ashlei suppressed a shudder. But she still didn’t look back as she replied.
“Anything else?” She asked with a dangerously soft voice.
Both of them said ‘no’ and she stalked off into the kitchen to grab the refrigerator handle. Opening the door a little too harshly, everything rattled inside, she grabbed two cans of beer and then almost slammed the door shut.
Visibly calming herself – she didn’t want either of the guys to see she was angry. At least, not shaken angry. Just displeased. Especially Noah. – Ashlei walked back through to the lounge and padded around in front of Noah.
She leaned over to place his can on the table in front of him and avoided looking at him, her face stone-like and blank.
“Thanks, babe.” Noah said softly and caringly, but Ashlei didn’t respond. She was too close to lashing out at him to say anything right then.
Straightening and turning, she made her way over to the table in front of Logan as Noah reached for his can and began fussing over it. Obviously sensing her mood and not wanting to bother her.
This time, however, as she bent down to place the can on the table, Logan’s eyes widened as much as his grin and he flicked his eyes down and then back up to hers.
“Nice globes!” He said suddenly, and too quietly for Noah to hear.
For a moment Ashlei had no idea what he meant but then his eyes flickered down again and she looked down. Her t-shirt hung down, and the lowish-cut neckline hung open, revealing her large 34D tits for him to see in her bikini top.
A flash of embarrassment zipped through the hot girlfriend before red-hot fury overtook it. How dare he! Right in front of her boyfriend too!
This time Ashlei couldn’t keep her face neutral and she glared at her boyfriend’s best ‘friend’. She opened her mouth to scold him with all the fury she felt, when she suddenly became aware of her boyfriend and how he hadn’t been able to hear what had been said.
Why she should feel any reluctance then when she was mad at her boyfriend too, she didn’t know, but that hesitation brought Logan’s eyes back to hers. He grinned and reached for his beer, leaning back, and just like that the moment to say something had passed as he spoke up again.
“Thanks, Ash.” He said, this time loud enough for Noah to hear.
All Ashlei could do was glower at him as she quickly straightened, something that amused the man so much that his smile turned into silent chuckling. She couldn’t do anything else without further showing herself out of sorts, and so she turned and stalked away, saying nothing to either of them as she headed towards the kitchen.
