For a long time that
night Annabel lay in bed next to her husband, restless and unable to
sleep. He had insisted on taking them all out to dinner at a fancy
restaurant, and they’d had a reasonably good time. He could be charming
when he wanted to. But they’d all had a lot to drink, him most of all,
even though he was driving. He never let anyone else drive his car, and
when Annabel suggested they get an Uber, he flatly refused.
Carla, meanwhile, was
having a fantastic time. She loved sitting there knowing that she was
fucking her father’s wife and that he had no idea. When Annabel excused
herself to go to the bathroom, Carla went along – such a totally normal
thing, two girls going to the ladies’ room together. Once they were
alone inside, Carla wrapped her arms around Annabel from behind,
fondling her breasts and then running one hand down to her crotch.
Annabel begged her to stop, and she was so pathetic that Carla relented.
There would be plenty of time for all this, she knew.
On the way home, Annabel
sat in the passenger seat looking miserable as her husband drove 20
miles an hour over the speed limit, having polished off three brandies
over dessert. They arrived home without incident, but Annabel was fuming
as she washed her face and brushed her teeth. She was worried that when
she went to bed, he was going to try something — at the moment she couldn’t stand the idea of him touching her, but he was unaccustomed to being
refused and might make a scene. So she dawdled in the bathroom as long
as she could and, fortunately, by the time she got to bed he was already
asleep.
She wished she could
sleep too, but all she could think of was Carla — so close, and yet so
far away. In her mind’s eye she saw herself standing up from the bed and
creeping down the hallway to Carla's room, where Carla was waiting for her,
gloriously naked, having known she’d come. Carla took Annabel in her
arms and kissed her, and one thing led to another....
But in reality Annabel didn’t have the guts. She sat there quietly in bed until sleep finally, mercifully, overtook her.
