What Good Roommates Do

Leilani and Haley clomp through the door, dresses sticking, mascara just starting to give up. No guy at the club took the bait—even with short skirts, six-inch heels, and moves they’d practiced in the mirror. "Worst dry spell ever," Haley mutters, kicking her heels aside with a thud. They drop onto the couch like sacks of flour. Leilani rubs her aching arches and Haley laughs, "Tag-team foot clinic?" Cool lotion squeaks out; fingers press deep, thumbs drag slow. Tension melts, turns into giggles, turns into something heavier. Leilani leans in first, lips catching Haley's surprised laugh. Their skirts ride up like curtains, and before they overthink it their hands are everywhere. Problem solved—roomie teamwork at its finest. They never needed the club after all.
