clothes　she　could　lay　her　hands　on；　Simon　didn't　seem　to　want　her。　
Before　they　moved；　her　confidence　plummeted　to　an　all　time　low　because　
he　hadn't　fucked　her　in　over　a　month。　She　couldn't　understand　why　Simon　
didn't　want　to　fuck　as　much　as　she　did。　Melisa　just　couldn't　go　that　
long　without　sex；　and　didn't　know　how　her　husband　could。　
Sure；　she　enjoyed　fucking　the　guy　last　night　and　the　one　this　morning；　
it　helped　take　the　edge　off　her　sexual　appetite。　But　she　really　didn't　
want　to　fuck　them；　she　wanted　Simon　to　fuck　her。　〃Well；　if　my　own　
husband　won't　screw　me；　at　least　I　know　other　men　still　want　to。〃　she　
said　aloud　when　she　stepped　out　of　the　shower。　As　degrading　a　thought　as　
this　was；　Melisa　decided　it　wasn't　her　fault。　She　also　made　up　her　mind　
that　she'd　fuck　someone　else　again　if　Simon　didn't　start　paying　more　
attention　to　her。　
　
It　was　only　eleven　o'clock　in　the　morning　and　already　Simon　was　well　
on　his　way　to　getting　bombed。　He　picked　up　the　tenth　shot　glass　from　the　
neatly　lined　row　of　twelve；　and　gulped　the　fiery　liquid　down　in　a　single　
swallow。　Janice　was　still　sitting　across　from　him；　talking　up　a　storm　
about　something　or　other。　He　didn't　know　what　she　was　saying；　or　did　he　
really　care。　She　had　been　yakking　away　ever　since　she　picked　him　up　on　
the　side　of　the　road。　He　looked　at　her　through　the　empty　thick　shot　
glass。　All　he　could　see　were　two　distorted　red　lines；　opening　and　
closing。　
〃You　still　suck　cock？〃　he　blurted　out。　
Totally　stunned；　Janice　sat　there　with　her　mouth　hanging　open　as　Simon　
continued　his　one　sided　conversation。　
〃I　didn't　think　my　wife　did；　but　she　does。　She's　a　pretty　good　at　it　
too；　opens　her　mouth　up　real　wide　and　plays　with　your　balls。　You　play　
with　the　balls　when　you　suck　a　guy's　cock？〃　
When　the　bartender　looked　their　way　because　Simon　wasn't　being　so　
quiet　anymore；　Janice　leaned　forward　and　said；　〃Why　don't　I　take　you　
home　now；　Sy。　I　think　you've　had　enough。〃　
〃Is　she　with　him？〃　he　mumbled。　
〃What？〃　
〃Is　she　still　with　him？〃　
〃Simon；　you're　not　making　any　sense。　What　are　you　talking　about？〃　
Janice　asked；　not　really　understanding　him。　
Leaning　over　the　table　the　way　Janice　was；　Simon　got　to　within　inches　
of　her　face　and　said；　〃My　wife　and　some　other　guy　are　playing　hide　the　
salami　in　our　own　fucking　house！〃　
〃I　don't　believe　it！　You're　just　imagining　things。　Why；　from　what　I've　
heard；　your　wife　sounds　like　a　real　nice　girl。〃　
〃I　saw　it　with　my　own　eyes！　Melisa　was　sucking　this　guy's　cock　and　
rubbing　her　pussy　all　over　his　face；　right　there　in　the　middle　of　our　
own　fucking　bed！〃　
〃Listen；　Simon；　why　would　any　girl　in　her　right　mind　want　to　run　
around　on　you？　Besides；　name　one　guy　in　this　neck　of　the　woods　who　would　
even　dare　think　of　doing　something　like　that　with　your　wife。　Hell；　you　
only　moved　back　a　couple　of　weeks　ago。　Nobody's　even　met　her　yet！〃　
Janice　truly　believed　what　she　was　telling　her　former　boyfriend；　
because　that　was　how　she　felt。　Six　years　ago；　they　were　the　hottest　item　
in　town。　Janice　had　dreams　of　marrying　Simon　one　day　and　living　happily　
ever　after；　but　then　things　changed。　When　he　received　a　full　scholarship　
to　a　university　on　the　east　coast；　she　was　happy　for　him；　but　also　sad　
because　her　plans　for　getting　him　to　ask　for　her　hand　in　marriage　were　
put　on　hold。　The　day　Simon　left　for　college；　Janice　thought　her　life　
ended。　She　would　have　waited　until　Hell　froze　over；　if　he　asked　her　to；　
but　never　Simon　did。　Janice　was　completely　shattered；　and　blamed　herself　
for　letting　him　get　away。　Even　though　she　had　married　someone　else　since　
then；　she　still　loved；　and　often　dreamed　of　Simon。　Janice　doubted　that　
Melisa　was　cheating　on　him；　but　maybe；　just　maybe；　this　was　the　second　
chance　she'd　been　hoping　and　praying　for。　
Simon；　for　the　first　time　since　she　picked　him　up；　really　looked　at　
Janice。　Her　soft　chestnut　hair　was　longer　than　it　use　to　be；　and　her　
face　was　thinner；　but　Janice　was　still　very　attractive。　She　still　has　
that　look；　Simon　thought。　Janice's　deep　brown　eyes　were　what　attracted　
him　to　her　in　the　first　place。　When　they　were　alone　in　the　past；　which　
was　often；　she　would　give　him　a　look　that　was　adoring；　while　at　the　same　
time　very　sultry。　She　was　giving　him　that　look　now；　and　the　old　feelings　
for　her　were　starting　to　come　back。　Simon　reached　out　to　hold　Janice's　
hand；　but　she　jerked　it　back　quickly。　
〃Let　me　get　you　home。〃　she　said　as　she　gathered　up　her　things。　
〃I　told　you；　I　don't　want　to　go　home。〃　
〃Well；　I　can't　stay　here　all　day；　Sy。　I've　got　shopping　to　do　and　a　
house　to　clean。　I　really　have　to　go。〃　
Feeling　sorry　for　himself　again；　Simon　leaned　back　in　his　chair　and　
said；　〃I'll　be　fine；　why　don't　you　take　off。〃　
Driving　away　and　leaving　Simon　at　Don's　tavern；　Janice　began　thinking。　
If　his　wife　was　really　cheating　on　him；　she　could　get　Simon　back。　She　
had　heard　the　rumors　about　her　own　husband's　infidelities　and　figured　
that　all　she　had　to　do　was　wait　around　and　catch　him　in　the　act；　then　
file　for　a　divorce。　Janice　suddenly　pounded　on　the　steering　wheel　when　
she　realized　exactly　what　she　was　thinking　about。　〃Damn　it；　Simon！〃；　she　
yelled；　〃Why　did　you　have　to　come　back？〃　and　then　she　started　crying。　
Part　II　
〃Where's　dinner？〃　her　husband　called　out　to　Janice　when　he　got　home　
from　work。　
〃If　you　don't　mind；　I　thought　we'd　go　out　to　eat。〃　she　yelled　from　
upstairs　in　their　bedroom。　
Normally；　her　husband　preferred　a　home　cooked　meal；　and　Janice　
expected　him　to　object　to　her　suggestion；　but　he　surprised　her。　
〃Let　me　give　the　Carsons　a　call。　We　were　suppose　to　meet　them　later　
for　drinks　anyway；　so　they　might　as　well　join　us。　How's　The　Landing　
sound？〃　
〃I　thought　we　might　go　over　to　Don's　place。　We　haven't　been　there　in　a　
while。〃　Janice　replied　quickly。　
She　was　hoping　to　run　into　Simon　again　since　he　lived　so　close　to　the　
small　tavern。　This　was　the　reason　she　was　getting　dressed　up。　
〃Okay；　I'll　tell　them　to　meet　us　there　for　supper；　then　we'll　all　go　
to　the　Landing　for　drinks　when　we're　done。〃　Tom　yelled　back。　
Janice　wasn't　the　only　one　with　a　motive　for　wanting　to　go　out。　After　
hearing　from　Jack　about　how　the　hot　redhead　drained　his　balls　this　
morning；　he　wanted　to　see　her　again。　In　a　perverse　sense；　this　was　Tom's　
way　of　getting　even　with　Simon。　Several　nights　over　the　past　six　years　
he　heard　Janice　talk　in　her　sleep　and　mention　his　name；　but　when　he　
asked　her　about　it　in　the　morning；　she　denied　having　any　feelings　for　
him　anymore。　Tom　didn't　believe　this；　and　suspected　his　wife　was　still　
in　love　with　her　former　boyfriend。　He　didn't　plan　last　night's　jaunt　on　
the　patio　with　Simon's　wife；　but　when　it　was　over　Tom　looked　at　it　as　a　
macho　victory　over　the　man　his　wife　still　cared　for。　
Janice　finally　came　downstairs　and　announced　she　was　ready　to　go。　The　
way　she　was　dressed　removed　any　doubts　Tom　had　on　how　Janice　felt　about　
Simon。　Instead　of　the　blouse；　jeans；　and　sneakers　that　she　usually　wore；　
Janice　was　decked　out　in　a　short　pale…blue　skirt；　a　tight　fitting　white　
sweater；　and　heels。　Right　then；　Tom　made　up　his　mind　he　was　going　to　
fuck　Simon's　wife　again；　even　if　he　had　to　go　over　to　their　house　like　
Jack　did。　
　
〃Bob；　will　you　tell　him　I　need　those　shot　glasses　back。　I　only　got　
about　five　clean　ones　left！〃　the　owner　of　the　small　tavern　pleaded。　
〃Hear　that；　Simon？　Don's　cutting　you　off。　Time　to　go。〃　
〃I'm　not　getting　in　that　fucking　boat　again！〃　Simon　shouted　without　
even　looking　up。　
〃What's　your　position　on　cars？〃　
Back　and　forth　they　went；　Bob　trying　to　get　Simon　to　leave；　and　Simon　
trying　to　get　Bob　to　stay　and　drink　with　him。　In　the　end；　Simon　won；　but　
only　after　Bob　made　him　promise　to　eat　something。　Bob　had　seen　his　best　
friend　like　this　before；　and　knew　all　to　well　how　belligerent　he　could　
get。　Don　came　over　to　the　table　then　and　asked；　〃Can　I　take　these　away　
now？〃　
〃Shit；　it's　about　time！〃　Simon　said。　
Playfully；　and　not　too　hard；　Don　hit　Simon　over　the　head　with　a　tray　
he　was　carrying。　
〃What　are　you　doing　here　anyway？〃　Simon　finally　asked　Bob。　
〃Remember；　you　and　Mel　were　suppose　to　come　over　for　dinner　tonight。　
Well；　if　Mohammed　won't　go　to　the　mountain；　then　the　mountain　will　come　
to　Mohammed。〃　Bob　said　as　Melisa　and　Bob's　wife　Sue　walked　in。　
Simon　became　very　quiet　when　the　two　women　sat　down　to　join　them。　
While　Sue　and　Melisa　discussed　the　differences　between　life　in　the　woods　
and　big　city；　Bob　studied　his　friend。　Something　was　troubling　him；　and　
had　been　all　day。　He　then　noticed　that　every　time　Simon　looked　at　
Melisa；　he　did　so　with　a　scowl。　They　must　be　fighting；　he　thought；　and　
sensed　that　things　could　get　ugly；　especially　considering　how　much　Simon　
had　to　drink　already。　When　Don　came　over　to　their　table　again；　Bob　
promptly　ordered　steak　dinners　for　everyone。　From　past　experience；　he　
knew　this　wouldn't　change　Simon's　mood；　but　it　would　sober　him　up　and　
make　him　more　reasonable。　Melisa　and　Sue　continued　to　talk　up　a　storm　
during　dinner　and；　thankfully；　Simon　didn't　argue　when　Melisa　suggested　
he　quit　drinking；　at　least　until　they　finished　eating。　
The　food　did　help。　This；　plus　making　him　drink　several　cups　of　coffee　
after　dinner　and　splashing　his　face　with　ice…cold　water　in　the　small　
bathroom；　had　Simon　coherent　now。　He　could　focus　his　eyes；　and　knew　
where　he　was　and　who　was　with　him。　When　he　talked；　his　speech　wasn't　
slurred　and　he　could　be　understood。　
〃You　okay；　pal？〃　Bob　asked　before　they　went　to　rejoin　their　wives。　
〃Yeah；　I'm　doing　better；　thanks。　Almost　like　old　times；　huh？　Me　
getting　fucked　up；　and　you　coming　to　the　rescue。〃　Simon　said　as　he　dried　
his　face。　
〃Don't　you　think　it's　about　time　you　stopped　doing　this　kind　of　shit？〃　
〃I　guess　so。〃　
〃Are　you　and　Melisa　getting　along　okay？〃　
〃Boy；　you　sure　are　subtle。〃　Simon　answered。　
〃Come　on；　don't　play　any　of　your　horse　shit　games；　Simon！　I've　seen　
the　dirty　looks　you've　been　giving　her。　Fuck；　you　think　I'm　blind！〃　
〃Hey；　I　can　handle　it。〃　
〃Look；　we've　been　friends　a　long　time。　If　you　need　someone　to　talk　to；　
I'll　listen。　But；　if　you　and　Melisa　are　having　problems；　keep　it　to　
yourselves。　Quit　making　other　people　around　you　feel　uncomfortable！〃　
〃I'm　feeling　better　and　I'll　behave。　Now；　why　don't　we　go　back　out　
there　and　have　a　good　time。〃　
While　Bob　and　Simon　were　in　the　bathroom；　two　other　couples　had　come　
in。　They　were　still　talking　with　Melisa　and　Sue　when　the　men　returned；　
so　Bob　invited　them　to　sit　down。　Within　five　minutes；　he　regretted　this　
and　was　ready　to　pull　his　hair　out。　After　just　straightening　out　Simon　
in　the　bathroom；　Melisa　started　acting　up；　and　she　was　a　lot　more　vocal　
about　it　than　Simon　had　been。　
Sitting　at　their　large　table　were　eight　people；　Simon　and　Melisa；　Bob　
and　his　wife　Sue；　Simon's　former　girlfriend　Janice　and　her　husband　Tom　
（the　stranger　Melisa　fucked　last　night）；　and　Jack　（the　man　Melisa　fucked　
this　morning）　and　his　wife　Mary。　
The　verbal　assaults　began　when　Simon　went　over　and　sat　down　next　to　
Janice；　leaving　Melisa　to　sit　between　Tom　and　Jack。　She　was　very　quiet　
for　awhile；　but　it　didn't　last　long。　
〃So；　Janice；　I　hear　you　two　were　quite　the　couple。。。　some　time　ago
