Volume 1 - Bi Awakenings

Thirty-four year old Elise looked at the time on her watch. It was 6:30 pm on a Friday evening and she was the only person still at the flower shop where she worked. Elise had been working as a floral designer for the past four years. She loved what she did and she was presently busy putting the late day delivery of fresh flowers into the walk-in coolers before she left for the evening.

 

As she picked up her purse and searched for the keys to close up the shop, her cell phone rang. "Hey, honey," she answered. It was her husband, Kevin.

 

"Are you leaving work now?" he asked her.

 

"Yup, I'm walking out the door right now. What's up?" Elise locked the shop doors and started heading towards the back of the building where her car was parked.

 

"Nothing; I just wanted to call and see how your day went. We've had a pretty busy shift today here at the station, so I'm not sure if I'll get a chance to call you again before you go to bed tonight. We just came back from a car fire, so I was hoping to catch you before our next call comes in."

 

Elise relayed her day to Kevin and they chatted for several minutes, when she heard the alarms go off in the station house through the phone. "Well, I hear you gotta go. Be safe babe, I love you." Elise finished

 

"Love you too." Kevin replied before quickly hanging up.

 

As Elise opened and hopped into her car, she smiled at how lucky she was. She had been happily married to a wonderful and supportive husband, who just so happened to be a sexy, muscular fire fighter. Elise credits the success of their marriage not just on their compatibility, but also on their commitment of complete trust, openness and communication with one another, which was imperative since Kevin's job required him to work 24 hour or 12 hour shifts, so he was away from home a lot more than most significant others would be. They made sure to resolve their issues as they happened so that no grudges were held and sharing their innermost thoughts, desires and fantasies with one another was another reason why their marriage was so strong. Elise always felt comfortable in sharing her fantasies with Kevin, as he has never judged or condemned her, making her feel safe in disclosing her desires.

 

Elise religiously went to the gym three times per week; today was one of those days. She drove straight from the flower shop to the gym and changed into her work-out clothes. As she came out of the locker room, she heard a familiar voice chatting up a storm. It was her best friend, Cassie.

 

"Cassie, must you always be seen and heard wherever you go?" Elise jokingly asked.

 

"Yes, I must." She laughed as she gave Elise a hug. "So, anything exciting going on?"

 

"Well, happy it's Friday." Elise replied as she put her water bottle and towel onto the front of one of the treadmills and hopped on. She turned it onto a low speed and started warming up by walking at a slow pace. Cassie jumped onto the treadmill next to her and was quickly at a light jog pace and already working up a sweat.

 

Several minutes passed when Elise noticed that her friend Cassie was ogling the cute woman on one of the treadmills in the row in front of them. "Easy bobcat; in case you didn't know, she is here with her husband."

 

"So, what's so wrong with that? I don't have what he does, so there's no competition." Cassie replied with a laugh.

 

Elise laughed back. She was used to Cassie's antics, and it's also what made her so endearing to Elise; her playful free spirit and open-mindedness. Cassie was also openly bisexual. She divorced about a year ago and ever since the divorce she has focused on mainly dating women. Her attitude towards men was completely different from what it was before her marriage and subsequent divorce. It seemed to Elise as if she truly enjoyed and trusted women more. Elise knew how hurt Cassie was over her divorce, even though it was a rocky marriage at best. Elise often wondered if her sexuality played a part of her marriage woes and divorce, however, she had never seen her friend happier so something must be right. Cassie was also drop dead gorgeous. She stood 5'7" tall and had a toned body that any man, or woman, would envy, and long brunette hair that she usually wore straight or put up in a ponytail when she was working out. The gym was an almost everyday thing for her, and is actually how she and Elise met years ago. She had an engaging smile, mesmerizing eyes, and tits that Elise sometimes found herself fantasizing about exploring with her hands and mouth.
