DELILAH

“Two guys,” Corrine repeated slowly. “You slept withtwoguys.”

“Yes,” I told her again.

“At the same time.”

“Well technically I slept withthreeguys,” I corrected myself quickly. “But only two at once.”

“Only,” Corrine chuckled.

“Yeah,” I chuckled back.

She was the type of friend who would help you bury a body, and she’d even pay for the shovels. The type of friend you could tellanythingto, no matter what the fuck it was, and it still wouldn’t surprise her.

“So when did this happen!?”

“Yesterday.”

“Thursday?”

I blinked. “Ummm, yeah. Guess so.”

“That makes more sense then,” Corrine breathed. “Thursdays are the weirdest day of any week.”

“Weirdest day?” I repeated.

“Sure,” she went on. “I mean think about it. By Thursday, Monday is ancient history. Hump-day’s over. You’re balls-deep in the work week, but it’s not quite the weekend yet.”

“Balls deep,” I laughed.

“Hell yeah,” Corrine continued. “You’re tired on Thursday. You’re zoned out. You’re not sure if you should keep working or if you should be celebrating Friday yet, so you start pretending. You go through the motions.”

I shook my head as I flopped back onto my bed and sighed. “I never could get the hang of Thursdays.”

“No one can,” said Corrine. “That’s why it’s such a fucked up day.”

I inhaled deeply as my best friend in the whole universe prattled on. My blankets still smelled likethem.Our little afternoon siesta had been warm and wonderful and totally refreshing, and made the rest of the day ten times better.

“So what was it like?” Corrine asked, matter-of-factly. “Sex with two men at once.”

“It was fucking biblical,” I told her.

“Jesus.”

“Exactly.”

On the other end of the phone, I heard her let out a long, deep breath. “I’ve always wanted to try that,” she said. “You know, maybe with a boyfriend and someone else. But—”

“But you never found a guy who’d make it happen?”

“Exactly!”

I laughed, nodding against the pillow. As a long-time fantasy I’d pretty much given up on myself, I could totally commiserate.

“I mean Silassaidhe’d do it, but he never followed through,” said Corrine. “And Eric insisted it had to be one of his friends, only I didn’twantto fuck any of his friends. What girl wants to fuck her boyfriend’s friends? Then you have to still see them all the time, and they’ve seen you naked, and theyknowthey’ve seen you naked…” she trailed off. “Ugh.”
