So here is the next chapter. I hope you enjoy. It's been kind of a slow couple of days around here so I have two new chapters to post tonight. Please R&R.
They had completely become focused on one another, forgetting everything and everyone around them. Hands were beginning to roam; faint noises were now coming from both women. It was becoming very awkward for Mimi and Steve by this point. They were just staring at one another, not really sure what to do about the situation. Mimi could no longer stand the tension and awkwardness.
"Excuse me," she leaned over and tapped Maureen's shoulder. "There are other people here."
This caused both women to snap back into reality. Joanne slightly embarrassed, Maureen rather pleased with herself.
"Oh sorry, umm…" Joanne was attempting to compose herself, avoiding eye contact with anyone. Maureen was rubbing Joanne's thigh, smiling, what did she care. "Mimi have a seat. Mimi Marquez, Maureen Johnson, this is Steve Carter, he's a new lawyer at the firm." Joanne was always so formal with introductions.
Mimi extended her hand to the gentleman, which he graciously reciprocated the action. Maureen's response on the other hand to the introduction was to put her arm around Joanne and give him a cocky, she's mine, "Hi."
"So…you and Maureen seem rather close!" Steve questioned, dumbfounded from what he had just witnessed.
"Oh we are close, you should see us at home," then she winked at him. Maureen was trying her hardest to make him uncomfortable and to make sure he knew that Joanne was hers. However, she didn't want to just come out and say she was Joanne's girlfriend; she wanted to see if Joanne would say it.
"Maureen is my girlfriend," she had said it, maybe a little reluctantly at first, but she had said it. Maureen couldn't help but to smile from ear to ear after hearing Joanne. She leaned over a lightly kissed Joanne's cheek.
Flustered Steve could only get out, "Well we should get back."
Joanne looked down at her watch and realized that it was getting late, "Yeah we should probably get back soon."
They were all standing outside the diner, getting ready to part ways. However, the scene was a little awkward. Mimi being her polite self and wanting to break the tension of the situation, walked over to Steve to say goodbye. "Well it was nice meeting you Steve."
"Nice to meet you as well, take care. And Maureen," as he turned to face Maureen he noticed she was leaning all over Joanne and Joanne was smiling and laughing to whatever Maureen was whispering in her ear. This sight not only made Steve mad, but jealous. He was hoping to start his relationship up with Joanne again and now he finds that she has girlfriend. He had never forgotten about Joanne; always comparing every girlfriend to her. This lunch was suppose to be Steve telling Joanne about his feelings and how he wanted to see if they could start dating again. But he kind of chickened out and then Maureen walked in, oh how he hated Maureen.
"Well we should go," Steve finally spoke up; he couldn't stand to watch them together any longer.
"Yeah, we should," Joanne agreed, looking slightly disappointed. "I'll see you both later this evening." She smiled and gently kissed Maureen goodbye.
As Joanne turned to leave, Maureen slapped her ass and of course made sure Steve noticed. This caused Steve to get slightly pissed off. She was rubbing it in his face. She had something that he wanted and he didn't like it.
Joanne and Steve got in the cab and headed back to the firm. Mimi and Maureen decided they'd continue their walk; they surely had a lot more to talk about now.
"Maureen you sure are a piece of work," Mimi chuckled.
"And that's what you love about me Meems." Neither of them could contain their laughter any longer, they just burst out laughing at what all had just happened.
