The Juicy Extract

They lugged their bags into the bedroom and opened them on the bed. Lisa selected a coral bikini and laid it out on the spread.

I've never seen that one before, Tracy said, pulling out a suit of her own.

I bought it for this weekend, Lisa said.

Both women began shedding their clothes. They had seen each other naked many times over the years and were neither embarrassed nor inhibited about undressing in front of the other.

God, girl, Tracy exclaimed, admiring Lisa's body. The gym definitely agrees with you.

What the hell is that? Lisa said, staring at Tracy's pubis.

Two small, red lightening bolts pointed the way to Tracy's otherwise shaven vagina.

Tracy laughed. What do you think?

Lisa shrugged, readying her bottoms. It must've taken some time to do.

Tracy laughed again. Not really. I used a stencil. It came in a kit that I ordered online. You should try it, Lisa. Spice things up.

Lisa trimmed her bikini line periodically, but had only gone the full shave route once. Maintaining a bald pussy was more work than she cared for, and a little uncomfortable to boot -- when her pubes started growing back, she itched like crazy. She couldn't imagine the time and discomfort necessary to maintain a sculptured bush.

No thanks, Lisa said.

I could do it for you if you wanted.

Lisa stared at her. You want to shave me?

I've already done it for a couple of friends. She smiled. I brought the kit. It's also got a heart and a one-way arrow.

You brought the kit? Lisa offered her friend a narrow-eyed stare. I'm not sure I like what's happening here. Are you trying to set me up with someone?

Tracy held out her hands. No way, Lisa. We're just trying to get you to loosen up a little. You've been hiding away for over a year.

And then Tracy stood up and hugged Lisa's nakedness against her own. They'd never touched each other's nude bodies before, and it caught Lisa completely off guard. For the first time, she felt her friend's small, warm breasts pressed against her own; for the first time, she felt her friend's hot pubis and her silky-smooth thighs.

I love you, Lisa, Tracy whispered against her neck. I hate to see you so unhappy.

Feeling Tracy's warm breath on her flesh, Lisa became instantly aroused in spite of herself, and she felt her own breath catch in her throat. Loneliness and longing surged through her chest, making her dizzy. Tracy's small round nipples felt incredibly hard -- her own nipples hardened painfully in response, and her pussy twitched. She felt Tracy shudder, heard her sigh. Lisa gently pushed her away, breathing deeply.

What's going on, Trace? she said softly.

Tracy's brown eyes were big and bright, almost challenging. What do you think is going on?

We're supposed to be friends, Lisa whispered, heart beating hard.

We are friends, Tracy said, staring at her. She abruptly sat down on the bed and slipped into her bikini bottoms. I'm sorry if I made you uncomfortable.

Lisa looked at Tracy a moment longer, and then sat down beside her. She cleared her throat.

I know this is none of my business, but --

Yes, Tracy said, staring at Lisa. I've been with another woman.

Lisa paused for a moment, returning the stare and thinking about all the times Tracy had seen her naked, including right now.

What was it like?

Tracy shrugged, and her tiny breasts jiggled with the movement. Her nipples were still erect. They were a half-inch long, at least, and Lisa couldn't keep her eyes off of them. She felt her pussy twitch once more, and then leak.

Oh, for God's sake, she thought, embarrassed. Does Rick know?

Tracy chuckled. He watched.

You're kidding, Lisa exclaimed.

Tracy smiled. Lisa fell silent, picturing the scene, and felt her pussy leak again.

Did you like being with her?

Tracy smiled. She knew my body better than I did.

Did you -- do things -- to her?

If you're asking, did I go down on her, the answer's yes. Tracy sighed. I didn't know what I was doing at first, but she helped.

Lisa imagined her friend's cute little face between another woman's legs and felt her slit twitch. She imagined Tracy's face between her legs, and her cunt dribbled. She hoped that Tracy didn't notice, and quickly finished putting on her suit.

I feel kind of weird, talking like this with you, Lisa said finally.

Why? We're practically sisters. Let me ask you -- haven't you ever thought of what it might be like?

Lisa stared at Tracy and nodded slowly.

But in my fantasy, the man would definitely have to participate.

Tracy nodded. Do you know these people?

Lisa shrugged. I don't know. I guess I never really thought about it.

Well, Tracy said. Whoever they are, they're going to be lucky. She stood up and slipped into her top. C'mon, girl. Rick's waiting.

When Lisa stood up, there was a small wet spot on the cover where she had been sitting. Tracy stared at it for a moment, and then leaned over and pressed her face against the dampness and inhaled deeply. She then straightened up and stared at Lisa inquiringly. Lisa returned the stare, completely dumbfounded.

Tracy smiled. I always knew you were a freak, Lisa.

CHAPTER ONE

Lisa was stepping into the shower when she heard her cell phone buzz. She was hot and sweaty from the gym, and immediately thought about letting the voice mail pick up. But she was also expecting a birthday call from her mother, and Lisa didn't want to make her wait. She sighed and walked naked into the living room where the device vibrated insistently on the coffee table. She experienced a real burst of pleasure when she saw the caller was Tracy.

Hey, girl, Lisa said, smiling.

What're you doing?

I'm standing here naked, getting ready to take a shower.

Tracy laughed. That sounds exciting. Been doing something hot and dirty?

Just the gym.

Boring.

Lisa smiled at her best friend's remark. In point of fact, she was feeling extremely sexy standing nude in her living room with the curtains open, still perspiring from the workout -- gym days drove her estrogen levels through the roof. Staring into the mirrors at her contorted face and flexing muscles as she sweated through her routines -- watching the other people working out and getting sweaty -- was something that she found incredibly stimulating. She always came home horny, and today was no exception.

Oh, I don't know. Depends on your point of view.

When are you going to start working out in other ways? Tracy asked. When Lisa didn't respond, Tracy continued, How long's it been since you've had a man? Over a year, now?

Lisa sighed. Give or take.

Actually, it had been fourteen months, but she wasn't going to admit that to Tracy. She had a hard enough time admitting that fact to herself.

Rick and I are starting to really worry about you.

And I appreciate your concern. But there just hasn't been anyone that's attracted me since Joshua.

Tracy sighed. How long are you going to carry that torch, Lisa? It's time for you to cut loose. And I know just the thing.

What's that? A bigger dildo?

Tracy chuckled. Nothing that overt. It's your birthday this weekend. Rick and I are driving up to the lake cabin, and we want you to come.

There isn't anybody up there I want to fuck.

Tracy laughed. Pickings are pretty slim, no doubt. But this would be strictly something fun to do on your twenty-fifth. Kicking back on the pontoon, partying with the geriatrics -- it might just be the thing you need.

Lisa took a minute to ponder the invite. She really wasn't one to celebrate a birthday anymore. She didn't consider it some kind of a milestone because she no longer felt any different from one year to the next. Last year's problems were still this year's, and if they weren't, there was an entirely new set of issues that needed to be faced. If anything, this particular birthday only reemphasized how much older she was getting and how more alone she felt.

Also, she was a stone's throw from completing her Master's. She still had her thesis to finish, and had intended to spend the weekend working on that. She hadn't even thought about going out, unless her parents wanted to do something, and that was unlikely -- her dad wasn't feeling well
