“Look he’s coming,” Steph announced. I glanced up the path that was fenced off for the final stretch to see he was among a group of men and women, running for the finish line. He must have been half a kilometre away when we spotted him. Felicity whipped out the pompoms she’d brought and handed us all one to wave and cheer. When he came into view properly, he spotted me. His grin lit up his face, and he picked up speed. As soon as he was over the finishing line, he ran towards me and picked me up. I automatically wrapped my legs around his body and kissed the breath out of him. He was sweaty, but I didn’t care. He was mine, and I would let everyone know. Eventually, he dropped me to my feet and then ran off again to collect his medal.

“You two seem to be firm friends,” Elliott said, tugging my sleeve to look at him.

“I think we’ve moved on from friends,” I answered to his chuckle.

“I was being sarcastic Adaline. Are you happy?” He asked.

“You know I can’t detect sarcasm, we’ve been through this a million times. I can’t pick up on your tone, I mostly lip read.”

“I’m sorry, I forget. You’re so good, it doesn’t register that you can’t hear speech all that well.”

“That’s ok,” I nudged him. “I am happy, he makes me happy, and he’s met my parents.”

“But he doesn’t know about your hearing,” Elliott stated.

“It’s no big deal really, he hasn’t noticed so maybe I don’t have to tell him.”

“If it’s no big deal then you should be able to tell him,” Elliott suggested with a raised eyebrow.

There were days when I thought I’d blown my hearing or lack of it out of proportion compared to other ailments a person could have. Then there were the days where I wallowed in the facts that there were so many things I couldn’t do and the things I chose not to do because it caused me upset. I knew this evening would be difficult going to pubs where the noise levels would be so high I wouldn’t be able to hear anyone talk. With drinks being held to people’s mouths, I had no chance of lip reading entire sentences. I would have to sit or stand and nod like I heard them or not take part in the conversations. I lurched from one extreme to the other. It was exhausting attempting to understand people. It was easier to stay at home and not interact.

But, that was no life at all.

“I’ll think about it, we’re in a good place at the moment. I don’t want to spoil it.”

“You won’t ruin it, Adaline, he’s besotted with you,” Elliott said and left me as Callum approached.

“Congratulations, you came in fifth place, are you happy?” I asked him.

He kissed me soundly and twirled me around.

“I’m knackered but happy to beat my personal best. It’s all down to you. Seeing you sitting on the beach waiting for me was all the reward I needed to swim, cycle, and run harder.” He said and kissed me again. “But most of all, I can’t wait to get drunk with you tonight. That first beer will taste like heaven.”

“We’re heading back to the flat, are you ready to leave?” I asked.

“Yeah, will we have time for a quickie? I’m sure you’ll need a shower,” he said, deadpan, sniffing my neck and faking a repulsed face.

“We’ll have guests to cook for, no time for sex,” I said.

He grabbed my hips and pushed his pelvis against mine. He was hard and horny. The hunger in his eyes told me I would have a fight on my hands to get out of washing his back in the shower or getting on my knees to relieve his pent up horniness.

“They’ll be on the veranda drinking, they won’t hear us, I’ll be super quiet, promise,” he said, pleading with me to agree.

“All right, but super quick and I might have to gag you, so you don’t scream my name.”

“Yes,” he shouted and crushed me to him.

Adaline on her knees, with water dripping down her firm, toned body was a glorious sight. What improved that view, was her lips around my cock. She took me in as deep as she could, then leisurely pulled out. Swirling the tip of her tongue around the helmet of my cock, she looked me straight in the eye before taking me deeply once more. It was too much, I tilted my hips and came in her mouth. Adaline took two long swallows and sat back on her heels, licking her lips. I’d angled the shower head perfectly to see the water cascade down her rounded breasts. She seemed far too pleased with herself, so I hauled her to her feet and pinned her against the tiled wall. I kissed her neck and cupped her pussy, sliding my fingers over her clit. Covering her mouth with mine, I frantically teased her clit until she came. Her legs shook for a few moments.

“I told you I’d be quick, they won’t even notice we slipped away,” I said, cupping her face to kiss her nose.

“Come on, let’s join them, I could do with a drink,” she said and slapped my arse as she left the shower.

Five minutes later, I had joined the group on the veranda, Scottie had dragged out the chairs from my flat, so everyone had a seat. Wine and beer bottles littered the table, most half filled. It gave me the heads up we were longer than I planned. No one mentioned anything, except Scottie, who gave me a wink and handed me a beer. That first swig of cold lager slipped easily down my throat. It had been three months since I’d had an alcoholic drink and there would be many more to come.

It didn’t take long for Adaline to join us. Steph brought out the pizza from Adaline’s flat and Felicity brought the pizza from my oven. I hadn’t thought about utilising both kitchens. At least this way we could all eat at the same time and start our evening of celebration. Going out as three couples was a new thing for me. I’d never been on a double date let alone going out with a girlfriend with other couples. We were doing ok so far for two people who’d never had a relationship longer than three months. My favourite time of the day was the evening when I cooked her dinner while she organised the ball. It was the charity’s tenth anniversary ball, and I wanted it to be special. Not just for the donors but all the staff that had helped over the years. We wanted to fly the headmistress and the school manager over, but they were reluctant to leave the school while the exams were taking place.
