Le Bon Anee was a charming French bistro located on the redeveloped waterfront. It was lunchtime and crowded, but Lily Black's table was immediately obvious to everyone. The tall, blonde, blue-eyed graceful young woman was surrounded by waiters all fawning over her and her friends. A couple of her sorority sisters, now professionals, sat at her table as well: Ginnie and Brenda, also blonde, but somehow Lily was always the center of attention. Leaning over to read the menu and nodding at a waiter's suggestion, Lily didn't see Kara at first. In many ways the opposite of Kara. Her skin was pale porcelain. Where Kara was busty, Lily was proportioned with a large B or small C cup. She wore her hair down to her shoulders and it fluttered in the breeze. Kara grinned at Lily as she pulled out the chair, her eyes flicking back and forth from all the men gathered around the table, and cocked an eyebrow. Lily smiled, shrugged. "Thank you, gentlemen," Lily said in her smoky voice, "But my friend is here now and we have some catching up to do." Lily was delighted that Kara had contacted her - she'd missed her friend after they'd drifted apart, and now that she was about to get married, it was good to have her old friend there to reassure her and celebrate with her. Kara nodded at Ginnie and Brenda. Lily's grin broadened into a huge smile and she leaned forward, "I'm so glad that you're here, Kara! We've been talking about the wedding, of course." Ginnie nodded, "There's so much to do, even at the last minute. There's the flowers, the table decorations, the memories scrapbook..." "Well," Kara said, "I know it's last minute, but if there's any way I could help...?" Lily laid her hand on Kara's arm and giggled. "Where are my manners? Girls, this is Kara, whom I've known forever. Kara, this is Ginnie, my sister from Delta Upsilon - she's helping me with logistics" Ginnie was a petite brunette with a wide smiling mouth, "and this is Brenda, another Delta Up, and my maid of honor." Brenda was a very tall woman with green eyes and wavy red hair that cascaded down her back. Kara nodded politely, "Pleased to meet you both." Lily pushed a cream-colored envelope of very expensive paper across the table to Kara. She opened it and read the wedding invitation. Lily apologized: "If you'd called me just a few months ago, I could've worked you into the bridesmaids, but now...it's just too late to find another groomsman for Paul."
"Well, tell me about Paul." Kara began. Ginnie shifted her chair over to KAra's side, and opened a big binder in front of her. She turned the pages of the scrapbook as Lily narrated. Paul was a young VP of sales at a Fortune 500 company, they'd met at the country club when he'd tried to play through but was such a poor golfer that Lily and her group kept catching up to him. He ended up wining and dining her, then taking her to Paris to propose. Lily had gratefully accepted right away. Page after page of the scrapbook showed Paul's handsome smiling face, his arms wrapped possessively around Lily, the two of them looking like models in every shot. Kara cooed over the pictures and gossipped with the girls, and they all got a little tipsy. Ginnie's phone chimed, and she took a call with the florist that quickly had her barking orders into the handset. The three others leaned forward to speak confidentially. "So..." Kara asked, "Paul is SO handsome. How is he in the sack?" Lily chuckled and Brenda blushed a little. "Oh, now, Kara," Lily chided, "We've had our wild times, haven't we? But that's behind me now. Paul and I agreed to abstain until our wedding night." Kara's jaw dropped. "You don't need to act like that!" Lily scolded, "We still fool around, a little. But it's driving me crazy...we've come close to breaking our word a couple of times, but so far we've managed to keep our clothes on." "So...so you've never seen his cock?" Both girls shook their heads. "Well..." Lily said, "There was this one time..." "At the chalet!" Brenda laughed, nodding, "We all rented a ski chalet last winter, and there was a hot tub. There was room for all eight of us, so we all got in after skiing. Lily and Paul started to make out, and then Lily..." "I asked Paul to get me another drink, and when he got out, welll..." "HE had this huge tent in his shorts, except his shorts were that light material that didn't hide much, so you could see the whole length of him." Brenda paused as Lily held her hands a couple of hand-spans apart, then continued, laughing "That was so funny! After he came back, we took turns having him get stuff for us. Every few minutes: 'Paul, would you get me a soda?'" Lily added, " 'Paul, honey, would you bring me a towel?'" "Oh, but the best was when Suzy asked him to get her cell phone...!" " 'I'm all wet, Paul, could you hold it up to my ear so I can check my voicemail?' " The two women collapsed in giggles, gesturing to show where the phone was relative to Paul's crotch. Brenda shook her head after a few moments. "You know you were driving him crazy, too, because that bad boy never went down!" Lily nodded, "Between you and me, I can't wait to get my hands on it. Thankfully, it's only a week away now. The dry-humping is going to kill me."
Eventually, the lunch wound down, and Kara exchanged cell phone numbers with each of them, offering again to help in any capacity.
She was more determined than ever to exact her revenge by ruining this wedding. Kara couldn't believe that Lily had changed so completely from the party girl she had known, though. She decided to follow Lily to see if she was meeting her needs any other way.
This kept her very busy, of course, because Lily had a million things to do in the last days before her wedding, many of them inscrutable to Kara: random swatches of fabric, cans of paint, sample hors d'oeuvres.
