- Karen sat there, fidgeting randomly; the day had certainly taken its
- tool on her in terms of stress, muscle aches and general irritability.
- Everyone seemed to be calling, everything seemed to go wrong and the
- office was a total disaster area -- it wasn't exactly easiest thing in
- the world to run the third largest law firm in the area.
-
- 'Oh well,' Karen thought as she whipped her torso around, cracking
- her back and relieving some of the stress. Sometimes, she thought,
- she really should hire a professional masseuse to give her backrubs on
- days like this. Perhaps, at the same time, she should get one of those
- massaging chairs to sit on -- all this paperwork was really getting
- to her, making her back sore. 'Maybe it was just the lack of calcium
- in her diet -- milk certainly does the body good,' she thought as she
- fumbled to put on her sneakers. Walking to her apartment was surely
- not going to be a trip that she was looking forward to.
-
- "Hey Karen." A familiar voice rang in the office. It was one of her
- employees, a guy by the name of Scott. "You wanna' go out with the
- office and get some drinks? You really look beat, maybe a few beers
- will relax you."
-
- 'What a nice boy,' Karen thought. Scott was probably one of the nicest,
- if not best looking employees in her firm. Though not the most handsome
- of men, he was definitely someone who commanded respect with his calm,
- cool presence and his excellent fashion sense. "Ahhhhh, sure Scott --
- when are we goin'?"
-
- Karen glanced over at the clock, it was already 6:37pm -- she was hoping
- to get a few minutes to dress and change before she went.
-
- "How'about 7:30 at the Red Dragon?"
-
- "Sure, that sounds great... I'll meet you guys there, I'm just going to
- go home, pop a quick shower and get dressed. Who else is going?"
-
- "I don't know. So far just you, me, Cathy and her boyfriend," Scott said,
- wincing a little bit because he was afraid that Karen would think that
- he was hitting on her.
-
- "No problem -- I'd better get going then..." Karen quickly pulled on
- her sneakers and packed her heels in her tote-bag not at all looking
- forward to the walk home.
-

-
- 'What to wear? What to wear,' Karen thought, throwing her clothes
- around randomly from her closet. 'Ahhhh, this'll be nice.' Pulling out
- a black skirt to match her olive-green blouse and black-plaid jacket
- Karen quickly pulled the skirt on...
-
- 'Damn, it's already 7:15!! I'm going to be late.' Always punctual,
- sometimes neurotically so, was a trait of hers that friends, business
- associates and everyone appreciated about her. 'What hose am I going
- to wear?' Quickly pulling out some black nylons was always a trick
- especially when you aren't sure which side is front and which is the back.
-
- 'Damn, late... 7:20 already' Panicking, Karen threw on a
- coat and ran out the door, barely slipping on her heels.
- ______________________________________________________________________________
-
- "Heyyyy Karen," beamed Scott, he always had the cutest smile, "thought
- you'd be late -- probably the first in years eh?" He elbowed her lightly,
- everyone knew that he was just jibbing her -- digging in that little
- knife, reminding her of how anal she really was.
-
- "Yep.. but a hell of a lot better than the first interview you had!"
- Two could play at that game -- the very first time the two met was
- Scott's interview; apparently he had gone out drinking the night before
- and, as such, woke up quite late, not late enough to miss the interview,
- but late enough to leave some shaving cream on his lip. Everyone teased
- him about it since the first day, people thought that he looked somewhat
- like a mad-dog.
-
- "Let's play a game -- how'about the name game?" Suggested Scott.
- "I'm sorry -- have I introduced you? This is John, Cathy's boyfriend"
- Always polite Scott pulled away Karen's chair as she stood to shake
- John's hand.
-
- "Pleasure to meet you." A handshake firmer than any man's was Karen's
- trademark. Along with the superior grip-position that she held made
- her psychiatry professoor at Harvard tell her that she was entirely the
- domineering personality-type -- not that she doubted it.
-
- "Okay... how do you play?" John asked, apparently he was unfamiliar
- with the game.
-
- "Easy, first you start by ... ... ..."
-
- . . . Drink-fest 1993 . . . Everyone get's drunk and happy.
- :) . . . "Hey, Karen, where are the briefs for tommorrow's meeting?"
- Scott was drunk, everyone could see that. Despite how big he was he
- certainly was swaying back and forth. All night Scott was hitting on
- her, touching her knees and stroking her thighs. At this point it was
- definitively driving her up the wall and there was no question that Scott
- was making her horny -- not that she wasn't playing the devil either,
- rubbing her toes up and down his shins and sometimes even brushing past
- his crotch.
-
- "Whoa big guy, they're at my place -- you should probably pick them up."
- Karen suggested it. She was a little buzzed and felt the alcohol numb
- her lips. It wasn't a big deal though, even though she was light
- in weight she had the liver of an Irishwoman. It wasn't her liver,
- however, that she was thinking of -- Scott started putting his hand up
- her skirt. Karen could feel that she was getting more and more excited
- -- her pulse quickened a little and this new stimulation was beginning
- to make her breath come a little shorter.
-
- "Oh, that's right, I should go and get the briefs for tommorrow's
- meeting." What a nice guy, Karen thought, Scott was definitely trying to
- make it sound like business as usual for them... everyone of the guys,
- she knew, wanted to 'make it' with the boss. It certainly wasn't the
- easiest thing being an attractive woman in charge of a large lawfirm:
- when you're commanding people call you a bitch, when you're not they
- think they can run all over you. But those times had passed and everyone
- respected Karen' s mind and personae greatly -- Scott was just trying
- to save her the embarrassment.
-
- "Sure big boy, don't fall down there... Party's over!" Karen announced,
- Scott had a little too much to drink and Cathy/John just seemed ready
- to pass out. The name game had definitely taken its toll on everyone;
- everyone, that is, except for her -- when she was young she had taken
- the time out to memorize the Who's Who in America... obviously a boon
- when playing the name-game with shots of hard-liquor.
-
- "Uh, Miss, would you like the check?" It was the bartendar. Scott
- quickly stroked his big toe against her crotch -- it made Karen gasp
- a little.
-
- "Sure, drinks on me -- time to go Scott." She slapped down her credit
- card and started putting her jacket on. Luckily Scott wasn't all THAT
- drunk, he got up obediently and slung his coat on. Boy, this was going
- to be an interesting night -- both she knew and Scott knew that no one
- was going to sleep THIS evening...
