“Thanks. Anyway, I’m gonna go ahead and take off. I’ll see you in a bit.” Alice walked out the door and headed down to O’Malley’s where the party was waiting. Jenny and Mike, their two friends who worked at the restaurant, had set aside part of the restaurant for their gathering. Some of the friends the girls had made in the music department, their neighbors from the dorms, some of Laurie’s sorority sisters and some people they had met through Heather’s karaoke sessions were all going to be there. It was strange. Just months earlier, most of these people wouldn’t have been caught dead together, much less for Heather’s benefit. But after that life altering summer down on the ranch, the three girls had relaxed and became happier, and that new attitude had gone over well with their peers. She thought back to those days on the ranch. She wished that Jane, Freddie and Michelle could be there. Especially Michelle. Alice found herself missing the muscular woman more and more. But those women weren’t going anywhere without Jane, and Jane wasn’t up to that kind of travel yet. She was at home on the ranch, but still had to take periodic trips to the nearest medical center to make sure that her head was healing up well from surgery and that the benign tumor she had removed hadn’t returned. Alice knew they would be calling Laurie’s new cell phone to talk to Heather later on. Maybe she could talk to Michelle then.

Back at the dorm . . .

Heather was sitting on the bed waiting for her girlfriend to come back. She actually found herself trying to find ways of sitting ‘more sexily’ for Laurie’s return. When she realized that she was actually posing herself, she fell flat back on the bed and covered her eyes.
“God, what am I doing? I don’t ‘pose’ for people.” She stood up and started pacing. She had almost worn a trench in the floor when Laurie entered the room. She was wearing a white tube dress that was too tight and too short to be considered decent, and her blonde hair had been curled and highlighted. She had some sparkly earrings, pink lipstick and white stiletto pumps. She looked for all the world like a life-sized, enthusiastic and drop-dead-gorgeous Barbie doll, and she was all Heather’s.
Laurie had stopped dead in her tracks when she saw Heather. She had come to the same realization about Heather’s new look that Alice had earlier. Laurie’s girlfriend was a naughty, pseudo-goth babe, and she was all Laurie’s. Laurie actually found herself running a hand over Heather’s washboard abs, causing goosebumps wherever she touched. Then she traced the chain that went from Heather’s nose piercing to her ear. It felt so cool against her finger. Then Heather’s lips started nibbling gently on her ear, and that nose/ear chain was pressed against her cheek.
“Listen, we could just blow off dinner if you want and start our celebration a little early,” whispered Heather, secretly egging the lovely young woman on. For a moment, it looked like Laurie might agree. Then her eyes shot open.
“No! I mean . . . well . . . it would be a shame for those reservations to go to waste. Speaking of which, we should . . .” She stopped to stare at Heather’s denim-clad hips. ” . . . we should go . . . to the restaurant . . . now.” Laurie turned to walk out the door, then turned back and gave a waiting Heather a very long kiss. “Yes, we should go.” Laurie’s face flushed a little. “Listen, Jenny was working tonight, but she wanted to give you something. Mind if we swing by O’Malley’s first?”
Heather struggled but managed to keep a straight face. “Sure. I guess we could do that.” But her inner demon wouldn’t let it go. “Are you sure she wouldn’t mind waiting until tomorrow? I figure we’ve got band practice and . . .”
“I really think she wanted to give it to you on your birthday,” Laurie quickly interjected. Laurie held the door open, and Heather had a little grin on her face all the way out to the car.

At O’Malley’s . . .
———— ———-
Heather did a reasonably good job of pretending to be surprised when she walked into the restaurant. There were about twenty people all told, and the dark-haired girl was a bit surprised that she actually liked all of them. She hadn’t ‘liked’ twenty people total in the last four years or so. Oh how things had changed.
All in all, everyone had a great time. There was a lot of food devoured, a lot of drinks dispersed (to those old enough, of course), and a lot of music. The karaoke stage had been cleared and Heather’s band’s instruments were ‘miraculously’ sitting there. There was no pressure for Heather anymore. Her confidence in her own voice and her friend’s musical ability had grown. She, Laurie, Alice, Jenny and their bass player (a friend of Jenny’s whose name was Mary) played a number of sing-along favorites as well as their still limited selection of original material. The entire restaurant, whether part of the party or not, seemed to appreciate the all-female-group’s performance.
Heather was sitting at the bar, enjoying a slightly illegal mixed drink. Heather was sitting next to her and talking to Jenny, but the blonde girl’s hand never left Heather’s. The dark-haired girl glanced over and saw Alice sitting at a booth, chatting amiably with Mary and a one of their neighbors. She sighed. Heather wished they could find someone for their young friend. After the incident with Jamie, a name which still made Heather’s skin crawl, Alice had played her cards almost as close to her chest as she did before admitting she was gay. Both Heather and Laurie had tried finding someone that might pique Alice’s interest, but the quiet girl hadn’t even nibbled at the bait. It wasn’t like she just wasn’t interested in sex like she had been after Jamie, but she was certainly more discerning. ‘Oh well,’ thought Heather. ‘At least there’s not much chance of another ‘Jamie’ incident. Alice is certainly playing the Once-Bitten-Twice-Shy routine.’ Then she smelled some sweet perfume and heard a voice like honey whispering in her ear.
“Still worried about Alice?” Laurie asked.
Heather sighed, turned her head and gave the blonde girl a quick kiss. “Yeah. I’m glad she’s going to get to go to the ranch next week. Maybe Michelle will get her to open up, or at least help her let off some steam.”
“I don’t know,” said Laurie. “I was talking with Jane this morning, and it sounds like the three of them are getting a little be more serious about their relationship. I think that the thought of maybe losing one of their own did something to them.”
“You’re right. You’re right a lot these days,” she said with another kiss. Laurie bit her bottom lip after the kiss and practically glowed with contentment. Then her phone rang, and it turned out to be the ladies at the ranch. Laurie quickly handed off the phone to Heather who retreated to a relatively quiet corner of the restaurant to chat with their friends.
Freddie and Michelle both politely inquired as to the after-party plans she and Laurie might have, and Heather politely informed them to mind their own business. Jane made sure that she understood the girls’ arrangement for their trip down to the ranch, and answered a myriad of questions about her health. Then Michelle came back on line and asked to talk to Alice. Heather handed over the phone to a very pleased looking young woman before seeking out Laurie once again. She wandered up behind her girlfriend, wrapping her arms around the girl’s waist and resting her head on Laurie’s shoulder. She took a deep whiff of the girl’s perfume again.
“You even SMELL sexy,” she said before giving Laurie a kiss on the neck. “Wanna blow this taco stand and head back to the room? I figure we could have some fun before Alice gets back and . . .”
“Alice is crashing over at Jenny’s place tonight. She and her roommate have a really comfortable sofa. So you and I have your place all to ourselves all night.” Laurie felt Heather’s hand slide down and cope a quick feel of her ass. “Let’s just say our goodbyes.” She groaned as Heather’s lips found their way to the nape of Laurie’s neck. “And we should hurry.”
The two girls gave thanks and best wishes for the smattering of people still in attendance. Everyone grinned as the two girls hurried out to the parking lot. The inability of the two to keep their hands off one another for any length of time had become legendary even among a population of horny college students. Heather and Laurie climbed into Laurie’s BMW and hauled ass to the nearest on-campus-housing parking lot. Laurie grabbed a bag out of the trunk before they headed towards the room.
“What’s that for?” Heather asked eagerly.
“What? Did you think you’d gotten ALL your presents?” Laurie asked with a smile. As they approached the door, Heather decided she couldn’t wait. She spun the blonde girl around, pushed her up against the door and started kissing her hard. Laurie started to moan and with her back against the door, she slid one leg up Heather’s side and hook the foot around Heather’s butt. She knew her skin-tight dress had crept up so that a casual observer would be able to see she wasn’t wearing any underwear, but she really didn’t care. All she cared about at that moment was Heather’s lips. Heather’s tongue had gone deep into Laurie’s mouth, and the blonde girl started sucking on it. Then she danced her own tongue around Heather’s tongue jewelry before reluctantly withdrawing.
“Just . . . wait her for a minute,” she said when she had regained her breath. She grabbed Heather’s keys, opened the door and slid inside. Heather paced outside for a minute, growing increasingly amorous by the second. Finally, she heard Laurie’s voice telling her to come inside.
Laurie had lit a number of candles and placed them around the room, and there appeared to be some pleasant incense coming from the alcove where their kitchen sink was. On the bed were a variety of sex toys, ranging from a strap-on harness with multiple attachments to a two-ended dildo that was similar to the one the two girls had used the first time they had sex. The blonde girl herself was wearing nothing but high heels, a blush and a smile. She twirled one finger in her golden hair and asked, “So, what’s your pleasure?”
Heather strode right up to her girlfriend and planted another long, warm, wet kiss on her waiting lips. Then she sat on the bed and twirled her finger, indicating that she wanted Laurie to turn around. She place a hand on the small of Laurie’s back and pushed, until at last the blond girl was standing directly in front of her, legs spread and bent almost in half. That left the girl’s perfect little pussy just inches from Heather’s face.
