A Simple Life: Chapter 167

Note: The poll was a tie. For the flow of the story and for the sake of moving things along I will stick to the usual Avery's POV only. Thanks for participating!

***

Before long we are pulling into the parking lot of The Meadows. Winona rolls into a spot, takes the truck out of gear, then shuts it down. The smooching pair in the back seat don’t even notice. They were in a world all their own.

“Mmmm.” Briar hums.

“Mmmm!” Kayla moans.

“Ahem!” Winona interrupts the smoochfest with a loud clearing of her throat. “We’re here.”

“Hm?” Kayla opens her eyes and breaks her kiss with Briar. Looking around she’s surprised to find us here. “Oh. We’re at my place. I thought we were picking Avery up some makeup.”

“That c-can wait.” I say with a smile. She smiles back, appreciative of Winona and I’s effort not to interrupt the flow that they had going on.

“So Briar?” Winona asks, looking back at her through the rear view mirror. “You need a lift home or…ya stickin around?”

“Ummm.” She stalls a moment before blurting out. “I need to talk to Avery!”

“Me?” I say. “Uh, sure. L-Let’s talk.” I open the door and slip down to the pavement then turn around to help Briar down too. Closing the door behind us I lead her away from truck. Under a pale street light I stop and turn to see a very nervous Briar staring back at me. I offer her my hand, which she clings onto like a lifeline. “Are you okay?”

“Mmm.” She nods yes…then after a second shakes her head no. “I’m scared, Avery.”

I pull her into a hug. The way she hugs me back told me she desperately needed on. “It’s okay B-Briar. Do you want us to take you home?”

“No!” She says. “I mean…I don’t think so. I mean…I want to stay.”

“Okay.” I pull back to look her in the eyes, not an easy thing for me with someone not named Winona. “Do you w-want us to stick around? We could still do that f-fashion show if you need some time.”

“Ummm.” She peeks back over her shoulder toward the truck then sighs. “No. I don’t need time. I want to stay. I really want to stay. I want her so bad, Avery.”

“Then stay.” I say. “Wh-What you’re f-feeling is normal Briar.”

“It is?”

“I was SO scared m-m-my first time with L-Lauren. I was even m-more scared my s-second time w-w-with Kayla.” I say in low, calm voice. “It t-took a f-few times until I started t-to feel good about it. And it w-wasn’t until Winona that I r-really felt comfortable.”

“You were scared?”

“Mm hm.” I nod. “Scared I c-couldn’t perform. Scared I w-wouldn’t be good at it. Scared I would do something wrong or say something bad. Scared that sh-she might think l-less of me.”

“Me too! That’s me! That’s me all around.”

Squeezing her shoulders I say. “I d-did fine in the end.”

“But…you’re so pretty. I’m just…plain old little Briar.”

“Are you kidding me!?” I exclaim. “You are soooo beautiful!” Her cheeks darken a shade. “K-Kayla thinks you’re hot. Smokin hot. She’s told me so. And W-Winona got really jealous about you b-because you’re so pretty. You’re as pretty as it gets, B-Briar!”

“Ohhhh. That’s nice of you to say.” She swallows the glances back again. “I’ve done my research on being a good lover. I’ve done my reading on being with a woman. I even practiced with some, erm, things. I just wish there was an instruction manual for…her.”

“It’s like the g-game.” I say. “You c-can do all the preparation you w-want but eventually you gotta just make the roll.”

“Yeah.” She takes a deep, shuddering breath. “Yeah. That’s true.”

“Briar.” I say. “If you j-just want to m-make out tonight, Kayla will love it. If you j-just wanna talk, she’ll listen. If you want to g-go home, she’ll get you home safe. And if you wanna crash on her c-couch, she’ll find you a blanket. Even if things are hot and heavy you can stop if you n-need to. Anytime. Kayla’s horny, b-but she’ll look after you Briar. D-Don’t feel like you h-have to do anything that you’re not ready for. Okay?”

“Okay.”

“Don’t worry about the Mistress stuff or who else she’s been with or any of th-that stuff. Just be yourself. Do what comes natural. And don’t ever b-be afraid to let her know what you’re f-feeling. All the things you’re feeling we’ve all felt.”

“Okay.” After another deep breath I can feel her body start to relax. “I really liked kissing her.”

“She’s a g-good kisser.”

“Soooo good.” A guilty grin plays at the corners of her mouth. “I felt her boob!”

I giggle. “She’s got g-great boobs.”

“Yeah. She sure does.” Another deep breath and I could sense her nerves turning into excitement. “Oh, Avery. Thank you!”

“Th-Thank me? For what?”

“Seeing you be so brave tonight made it so much easier for me to find my own courage.” She says, this time it was her pulling me into a hug. “You’re amazing, Avery. Thank you for being my friend.”

“Aww. The p-pleasure is all mine.” I squeeze her tight. When we part again she is all smiles. “You ready?”

“Yeah.” She nods. “I’m ready.”

“It’ll b-be fine.” I assure her. “Oh! W-Wait. I forgot to tell you the m-most important bit.”

“What? What!?”

“Have fun!”

She titters and glances again back toward the truck where Winona and Kayla were now pulling bags from the back. “I think I will.”

Our clasped hands swaying between us we walk back. “Everything okay?” Kayla asks as we near.

“Everything is great!” Briar says. “In fact, better than ever.”

“All those hugs, I was starting to get jealous again.” Winona jests.

Briar laughs. “No need. I’ve got my eyes on someone else.” Her gaze locks onto Kayla. “If she’ll have me. I would very much like to continue kissing you, Kayla.”

“Your wish is my command, Little Mistress.” Kayla picks up the bags. “Lead the way my sweet.”

Briar’s slender shoulder’s rise along with her growing confidence. She flashes me one last look then raises her chin and strides forward with all boldness that the title ‘Mistress’ would suggest. In fact she marches right past Kayla, having faith that she would catch up.

Kayla looks at me. “I had a blast tonight, bestie.”

“Me t-too. Thank you.”

Kayla then gives Winona and I a wink and a familiar ‘I’m gettin lucky tonight!’ kinda grin then spins and hurries to catch up to her ‘Little Mistress’.

“See ya both tomorrow then!” Winona calls with a laugh.

“Can’t wait!” Briar calls back from shadows.

Shaking her head Winona pulls me close. “I wasn’t sure she had it in her.”

“I did.” I say as I snuggle up to the side of my Dommy.

Squeezing me tight to her side she asks. “Need to stop off anywhere, baby girl?”

“Mm mm.” I shake my head. “Just take m-me home, Winona.”

“Home.” She whispers then kisses the top of my head. “Music to my ears.”
