It was November 5th, the day I get off work early and the day I have to get groceries for the coming week. I decided it would also be great to meet up with my best friend Teresa and have a coffee with her. Teresa and I have been friends since we were little, and briefly dated in high school. Last year, she secretly came out to me that she was bi. We've been through thick and thin together and tell one another quite literally everything, so she's aware that I liked Melissa, who worked at the cafe we've begun to hang out. I texted her if she was free at three to go to the cafe, and as always, replied yes. She then added a winky face emoji. She knew why I'd chosen that place. I got through work just as any other day and got to the cafe a little early just so I could see Melissa in all her beauty.
Melissa was the dream girl for me. Hazel eyes, short brown wavy hair, dimples, and a smile that would make any heart glow. Her body was in perfect proportions as if God spent extra time sculpting her. Teresa had a similar body size but not all that curvy, but still in great shape nonetheless. I still catch myself looking at her ass from time to time. Melissa soon came up to me for the order while I waited for Teresa, and I gave our order knowing that Teresa would be here any minute, and at exactly 3 pm, she walked in, prompt, just like always.
We finished up, and as always, I paid a good tip for Melissa with a smiley face on a sticky note, hoping one day I'd be writing my number on it. I caught a glimpse of Melissa's figure on the way out, and I must have stared for a little too long, because I felt Teresa nudge me, all while giggling, knowing what I desperately wanted. As soon as we walked out she burst into laughter, leaving me confused.
"Look down silly," Teresa giggled as she pointed down.
I looked down to see a baseball-sized bulge in my pants. I immediately shuffled my legs to make it less visible and less embarrassing. I was so focused on Melissa that I didn't notice my hard-on.
I usually shop in bulk with my groceries, but I was running low on a couple of things so I thought I'd do a quick errand and play online once I got home, maybe call up a couple of friends and see if they wanted to hang out. As I turned to aisle 12, I saw a familiar face and a more familiar body. It was Melissa. Her presence was enough to send my dick into full boner mode in five seconds. She looked up from her shopping basket to see me, and we locked eyes.
"Hi! I know you!" She exclaimed.
I froze but knew I had to keep it cool. I couldn't blow my one shot at a conversation.
"Hey! Melissa, right? You work at the cafe four blocks down?" I sheepishly spoke.
"Yeah! You and your girlfriend come by every now and then, right?" She inquired.
Girlfriend? I thought. What does she mean by girlfriend? Does she mean Teresa? She must mean her.
"Oh no no," I stammered, "she's my best friend. The cafe has just become our meetup spot over the past year."
My dick couldn't take the small talk anymore. It wanted to be free. I hid my bulge behind the shopping basket I had in my hand, and even that wasn't doing a good job of hiding it anymore. I diverted the topic.
"So what are you here for?" I asked.
She pointed to the pasta section down the aisle. "I'm here because I'm making lasagna tomorrow."
The moment she looked and pointed down the aisle, I tried to adjust myself to hide my cock and preserve my dignity. Unfortunately, she glanced back at me at the worst moment possible as my hand was going to my bulge. Fucking hell, I think she saw it. She looked back towards the pasta and began to walk towards it, and I followed, continuing to shuffle my dick to align it with my leg. She got what she needed, and I decided to get something off the shelf as well, trying to play off what she might have seen. We were in awkward silence for what felt like an eternity, but she broke the silence.
"If you're free this weekend, I could bring some of my lasagna to the cafe for you to try. It's a family recipe and I think you'd like it," she said.
This couldn't be happening. I was in so much shock, I paused. She must have seen it in my face because she immediately responded.
"It's alright if you don't want to," responding to herself, "I don't want to bother you if you're busy."
I had to come up with something witty, and quick. I instinctively grabbed a packet of lasagna from the shelf.
"It's not a problem, I'm just busy this weekend, but I tell you what. Are you free next weekend? If you want to come over for a friendly competition. Best lasagna wins," I said with a smirk.
She pondered for a second. Would she accept?
"Deal. If yours is better, free coffee for you and your friend for a month. But if mine is better, you two pay double for the month,"
I nearly blew my load in my pants then and there. I was overcome with delight. Paying double for the month would forever be worth it for a chance to spend some time with her.
Keeping the mood light, I joked with her. "So it's a date?" I laughed.
She laughed shyly. We slowly walked together, getting the ingredients for this lasagna we now had to cook. Thankfully, I knew how to make the perfect lasagna, taught by my mom. We talked about our jobs, our love for food, and our personal takes on how lasagna should really be made. We talked all the way until we were outside. We exchanged contact info (!!!) and went about our day. I called Teresa as soon as I got home and told her everything, and safe to say she was more delighted than me.
While I had lied to Melissa that I was busy for the weekend, she was now the reason that kept me busy. I searched every lasagna recipe I could find, trying to find something unique to add to my recipe that could impress her in any way. Teresa came over to help me make small batches to see what improved the flavor and what didn't. We were full from taste-testing lasagna all weekend long, but we had found something that gave it the touch it needed.
I couldn't keep my composure throughout the week, so much so that my boss noted my sudden change in mood. In the midst of thoughts of potential events between me and Melissa, something seemingly inexplicable happened Thursday night.
I went to bed incredibly tired. As soon as my eyes closed the doorbell to my apartment rang. I looked at my phone to read the time and it read 10:30 pm. I wasn't expecting anyone, so who could it be? I shuffled out of bed, got to the door, and looked through the peephole. My heart dropped at the sight. Melissa? At this hour? Really? I opened and greeted her in my half-awake state. She smirked.
"I brought a friend who told me how much you like me," she giggled slyly.
And out came Teresa from the corner of my eye. At that moment, I didn't know whether to yell at her for exposing me or thanking her that she was here.
"So what exactly are you here for?" I yawned.
"We'll show you," Melissa said with a wink.
What did she mean 'we'? Did Teresa plan something with her to surprise me? While contemplating what was going on, Teresa invited herself in, grabbed us both by our arms, and pulled us to my bedroom. What was going on? Still in a confused state, Melissa began to undress and threw her clothes to the side.
