Cherry Chapstick

Chapter 30

I looked at our unexpected guest up and down, inspecting her as much as I could. She wore a pair of black leggings and a tight red workout shirt. Her nails, though short, were immaculate. They were acrylic coated with a deep burgundy color on them.

Her hair was in a high ponytail; blonde and sleek as though she had spent a long time pulling it up and then brushing it to silky perfection. She wasn’t tall; maybe around 5’3. Her body was curvy, not at all like Leslie’s. Where Leslie had a nice tiny waist, this girl was very voluptuous and somewhat chubby. Not at all unattractive though. The weight complimented her very well. Her shoes were solid white tennis shoes with no socks.

Her face though; man she was lovely. She had deep green eyes complimented by naturally long and thick eyelashes. Her nose was straight and her cupids bow glossy red lips were complimented by straight white teeth.

With her hand held on her hip, she watched me as I took the sight of her in. She wasn’t tall but definitely a force to be reckoned with.

“Are you done?” She asked me finally, in a saucy voice. Not quite annoyed but not exactly inviting either.

“I’m so sorry” I stammered out, unsure of what to say to this stranger standing in front of me. “You’re just a very attractive girl and I couldn’t take my eyes off of you.”

“The f**k” Leslie growled beside me. “Are you really going to say that right in front of me like I’m not even here?”

I could hear not only anger but hurt in her voice. Surely she couldn’t be angry at me for appreciate this woman’s beauty. She was after all married so it wasn’t like we were completely exclusive.

“Would you rather I stand here and lie?”

The girl watched us go back and forth, a smile creeping across her face. She was enjoying this far more than I was.

“Well, seems to me like the two of you aren’t in the honeymoon phase after all.” She glanced down at one of her nails and smirked. “From what I witnessed when I walked in, I thought for sure this was something new and maybe just a little afternoon fuckery. Guess maybe I misjudged the whole situation.”

She was very pleased with herself and I felt tension entering the room so thickly you could cut it with a knife.

“You weren’t even supposed to be here today” Leslie told her, accusation filling her voice.

“Actually, I am. Do you not have time to check your calendar?” She looked over at me and I tried once more to cover myself. She smirked before continuing. “Or have you been too busy to keep up with things lately?”

She looked over at me and winked and ran her tongue across her lower lip. Was she flirting with me right here in front of Leslie? I had a feeling that things were about to get even more awkward for me. This girl was definitely trouble but I wasn’t so sure I didn’t want to be a part of it.

“I have been caught up with other things. But that’s really none of your business.” Was her response. Her voice was cool and I could tell she was aggravated for not having kept up with what she was supposed to. “And I didn’t expect you so.” Her voice trailed off.

“It’s ok, maybe I can join in and have a little fun myself.”
