The Squared Circle

Chapter 10

Make It Rayne

Wednesday, April 18, 2013 – 8:30 am – Apartment of Ashley and Jesse Cabot – Orlando, Florida

Ashley Cabot awoke that Wednesday morning with someone other than her husband on her mind. She awoke with the memories of a forbidden kiss with Taryn Terrell flooding her hippocampus. The day before, in a moment of tender weakness, Ashley found herself kissing the woman whose flirtatious teasing served its purpose – the purpose of breaking down Ashley's defenses, making her vulnerable to a psychological Sapphic attack. Ashley went from dismissing Taryn's flirtatiousness outright, to dismissing it with an appreciation of Taryn's attention, to quietly wondering what would happen if things went a step further, to throwing caution to the wind and kissing her.

As Ashley lay in her marital bed, her mind drifted to thoughts of the warmth and softness of Taryn's lips, the electric current that seemed to flow through her when their lips met for the first time, and her first conscious thoughts of what Taryn would look like naked in her bed. Ashley felt a warmth envelope her that quickly became an ache between her legs. Was it possible that thoughts of Taryn Terrell were going to make her pleasure herself in the same bed that she shared with her husband? Before she could fully explore that question in her mind, the chime on her cell phone went off. Ashley exhaled and turned her body toward the nightstand to pick up her phone. It was a text from her husband.

At the airport. Wheels up in 45 minutes. Miss u, luv u, want u

Ashley smiled. She loved her husband. He never failed to make her smile. He never failed to make her feel safe and protected. He also never made her feel the indescribable feeling of electric sexual tension that she felt with Taryn. Ashley fired off a response to her beau. She usually texted a line from a movie or TV show that they had seen recently. She chose a line from Step Brothers for that morning.

Stay golden, Pony Boy

Ashley laid down her phone just as Jesse's reply came through. She picked the phone back up. His reply was a paraphrase of a line from earlier in the same scene.

Stay slippery down there ;)

Ashley considered Jesse's joke for a moment, then considered the new source of the slipperiness. "You don't know the half, baby." Ashley then slid off of the bed and went to the bathroom to take a shower. There were several moments in the shower when Ashley was tempted to relieve some of the sexual stress that was now building inside her petite body. But she resisted them as she remembered that she was going to the gym with Brooke and Lisa and the last thing that she wanted was the bloodhound that was Lisa Marie "Tara" Varon to sniff out any kind of sexual self-gratification.

Twenty minutes after entering the shower, Ashley stepped out and began to towel herself off. Seconds later, she heard a sharp rapping on the front door. Ashley wrapped one fluffy pink towel around her body and grabbed a second one for her hair. The knocking on the door, while not incredibly loud, was rapid and persistent.

"OKAY! I'm coming…" Ashley's voice trailed off at the end as she reached the door. "Who is it?"

"The Avon Lady. Open the door." Ashley opened the door upon recognizing the voice of her beautiful brunette co-worker, Lisa, known to the WWE Universe as Victoria and the TNA world as Tara. "I swear, you take the longest showers." Lisa said as she walked in. Ashley closed the door behind her. "I'm surprised you're not a prune by now."

"I taste much better than a prune." Ashley joked.

"I'm sure Jesse would agree." Lisa shot back.

"That he would." Ashley said as she walked back into the bedroom. "Gimme a minute. Let me throw on my workout stuff."

Lisa went into the kitchen. "I'M TAKING TWO OF YOUR PROTEIN BARS!" Lisa called out.

"OKAY!" Ashley replied. A couple of minutes later, Ashley re-emerged from the bedroom with her yoga pants and tank top on, cross-training shoes and socks in hand. Lisa had made herself comfortable, seated in the living room. "Brooke's meeting us there?" Ashley asked.

"Yeah. She texted me early this morning." Lisa said. "She said she spent the night at Taryn's."

Unconsciously, Ashley slightly bristled at that revelation. The umbrage that she took was slightly evident in her voice. "Is that right?" Ashley commented.

Lisa's eyebrow raised slightly. "What, do you know something?" Lisa asked. Ashley shook her head. "Is… that what you two were talking about in the car yesterday?"

"What? In the car? No. We… were talking about something else." Ashley said. The relationship between Lisa and Ashley was one of a strong bond of friendship. They made their respective debuts in TNA within 5 months of each other in early 2009. After a brief hiatus in early 2010, Lisa returned to TNA in a storyline alliance with Ashley's alter ego, Madison Rayne, which lasted until mid-2011. Throughout the matches, training and travel, the two women came to rely on each other for advice and companionship. Their dynamic was such that it was nearly impossible for one woman to hide something from the other one and go undetected.

"Then why did your face just get tight when I mentioned that Brooke spent the night at Taryn's?" Lisa inquired.

Ashley gave a neutral smirk and shook her head. "No reason." Ashley deadpanned.

"Ashley Nichole Simmons Cabot…" Lisa called her by her full name, including her maiden name. "What is up with you…? Are you…? Are you… jealous… of Brooke?!"

"Seriously?!" Ashley said.

"You are jea… You have a crush on Taryn!" Lisa deduced. Ashley's eyes shifted.

"You are so full of shit! Just because somebody teases me…"

"You DO!" Lisa exclaimed. "I can see it in your eyes! Ash!"

Ashley stood up. "I hate that you know me so well!"

Lisa sank back into the sofa cushion slack-jawed. In the four years she had known Ashley, she hadn't seen even the slightest hint that she might be attracted to women. "She must've really did a number on you."

"She's actually a sweet person." Ashley started. "We were in the car talking about something else and she apologized for teasing me all the time." Ashley sat back down next to Lisa. "And she reached down and touched my hand…" Ashley's voice softened. "And she looked at me and smiled and that's… whenIkissedher." Ashley ran the words in the last part of her sentence together.

"I'm sorry. I misunderstood you. I thought you just said that's when you kissed her." Lisa said.

Ashley dropped her head. "I… did. I kissed her."

Lisa was once again left speechless for a moment with her mouth agape. "Ho… lee crappolly."

"I know. I don't know what I was doing…"

"You… you were digging her, obviously." Lisa said with a chuckle of disbelief. "I just… I'm sorry. I never figured you for crushing on a girl."

Ashley chuckled. "Me either. But… this is ridiculous. Everybody in the locker but Jamie knows that Taryn wants Jamie."

"So let her have Jamie. And you break a piece off too." Lisa suggested. Ashley scoffed but Lisa continued. "Look, you're married. You're not gonna leave Jesse for Taryn or anybody else. Taryn's a girl. A hot ass girl. So just explore your feelings. Explore her body! Let her explore your body!"

"I can't do that!" Ashley said.

"Why not?" Lisa asked. "Are you a prude or something?"

"No."

"You're… you're not in love, are you?"

"No. I'm not in love with Taryn." Ashley declared. "Maybe a little infatuated. But not in love."

"So there you go." Lisa retorted.

"But…" Ashley hesitated.

"But what?"

"I've never… been with a woman before." Ashley gingerly said. "Have you?"

Because of the secrecy of both The Inner Circle and The Diamond Exchange, Lisa had joked about, but had never told Ashley of her girl-on-girl escapades.

Lisa took a deep breath. She wanted to say yes to Ashley but in doing so would have to admit her involvement in both of the clandestine groups – something that she did not believe Ashley was ready to hear, much less be a part of.

"Ash…"

"It's a yes or no answer." Ashley said.

"It's a little more complicated than that." Lisa said.

Ashley shot up off the couch. "You know what? Fuck it. You, and Mickie, and Gail, and Christy, and Taryn have been pulling each other to the side, and whispering and ducking around corners. You're probably fucking each other for all I know, and you know what? Who gives a shit? Do whatever you want." Ashley spat as she turned to walk away. "I thought you were my friend. I thought all of you were my friends. Fuckin' bitches."

"ASHLEY, GODDAMNIT STOP!" Lisa barked. Ashley stopped dead in her tracks. Lisa and her husband Jesse were the only two people that could stop Ashley on a dime when she got angry. "We are your friends. None of want to lose you as our friend. But… since you… told me about your feelings for Taryn. I guess…"

"Jesus, Lisa! What?!"

"You were right! Okay?!" Lisa blurted out. "Me, Mick, Gail, Christy, Taryn… we formed a group, a friends-with-benefits group and… FUCK!" Lisa slid her hand into her pocket and pulled out her cell phone and dialed.

"Who are you calling now? In the middle of THIS conversation?!" Ashley asked with a bewildered look on her face.

"Hey Leese!"

"Mick, I had to tell Ashley! I'm sorry. I couldn't ruin our friendship keeping secrets. If you want to kick me out, I understand…"

"Lisa… Lisa… It's… it's okay. She was bound to find out anyway. Our locker room is smaller than the E's."

"So Mickie is the ringleader of this circus?!" Ashley spat. Mickie overheard Ashley's comment and asked Lisa to put her on the phone. "Mickie…"

"Ashley, I'm sorry. I know how close you and Lisa are and I'm sorry she had to keep this from you. She's gonna tell you everything. Can I just ask you for two favors please?"

"What?" Ashley said with an irritated voice.

"One, keep an open mind and two, don't share what she tells you with anyone else." Mickie said. "Again Ashley, I'm sorry. I'm your friend too and I should have told you. I love you, Ash."

Mickie always had a knack for pulling on Ashley's heartstrings. "You too, Mick." Ashley handed the phone back to Lisa.

"Mick?"

"Tell her everything. Circle included. It'll be okay." Just then, Lisa heard a click, signaling another call.

"Okay Mick. Talk to you later." Lisa and Mickie hung up their call and picked up the incoming call. "Hey Tess."

"Hey Lisa. I'll be at the gym in 20 minutes."

"Okay. We may be a few minutes late but we'll be there."

"Okay. Later."

Lisa hung up the call, dropped the phone to her lap and looked at Ashley. "That was Tess. She'll be at the gym in 20 minutes."

"So we'll talk in the car." Ashley said. Lisa stood up. "I was… kidding about… all of you fucking."

"I know you were." Lisa said. "That's why I feel so bad."

"Don't." Ashley cut her short. "I'd… want to keep that close to the vest too." Ashley smiled a faint smile that was mirrored by Lisa. "Come on. We don't want to keep Miss Tessmacher waiting." Ashley pulled her hair back into a ponytail and walked past Lisa to grab her gym bag at the door.

"Ash?" Lisa said causing her to turn around. "You know I love you, right?"

Ashley smiled. "I know." She paused and then switched into Madison Rayne mode. "What's not to love?" She then flung the door open and strutted out into the hallway.

Lisa chuckled under her breath and shook her head. "Nutty bitch."


Ashley spent the next twenty minutes in Lisa's car being debriefed about everything that had been secret up until that moment. Ashley felt like her head was spinning but at no time did her flight response kick in. Instead, she was impressed that so many women could keep that big of a secret over so many years. Lisa got to the end of her explanation about halfway through the trip.

"Well, Ash… what do you think?"

"So you've been with all of them?" Ashley asked, referring to the other four members of The Exchange.

"Not Taryn. Not yet." Lisa said.

"But you want to."

"Oh ye…" Lisa started to answer enthusiastically but then caught herself. "Ash, I'm sorry…"

"No, it's okay. She's a member. She looks like she's good. You all do." Ashley said.

Lisa paused for a several moments in pensive thought. "Ash…I can't believe I'm about to ask my best friend this… but… do you think it's something… that you might… be interested… in joining?"

Ashley looked over at Lisa, whose eyes were fixed on the road as she drove. Before Ashley could formulate a response, Lisa's text chime went off. Lisa picked up the phone and glanced at it. The message was from Mickie.

New initiation process. Members other than the Director can initiate prospective members. Who says I get to have all the fun. New member initiated last night by Taryn. Welcome Brooke to the club.

Lisa placed the phone in the cup holder next to the shifter and re-focused on the road. "Well fuck me sideways."

"That sounds serious. I haven't heard you use that one in a while." Ashley observed.

Lisa, with the cat now being out of the bag, motioned to the phone for Ashley to pick it up and read the text. Ashley picked the phone up and did just that. Once she did, she laid the phone back down.

"I didn't answer your question." Ashley said.

"No, you didn't." Lisa replied.

"I'll join on one condition." Ashley said. This surprised Lisa. She just knew Ashley would politely decline and cite that her sole focus would be on Taryn.

"What's that?" Lisa asked.

"I want you to initiate me." Ashley said in a soft but strong voice.

Lisa began blinking rapidly. "You… You want me… to… but what about Taryn?"

"I need to learn what I'm doing." Ashley explained. "I don't… want to practice on her. And right now, no disrespect to the other girls… you're the only one I'd trust."

"You do understand that… we'd be having sex… with each other." Lisa stated the obvious for shock effect.

"Really?… Lisa? My hair is not blonde anymore." Ashley wisecracked, referring to her time as a member of The Beautiful People when she died her hair blonde and put in blonde extensions. "I know we'd be having sex."

"I just wanted to make sure." Lisa said as she turned into the parking lot of the gym.

"Do you think I'm attractive? In… that way?" Ashley asked.

"Jeez Louise… I'm not doing this with you." Lisa huffed. "You know damn good and well that your skinny ass is pornstar fine."

"Really?" Ashley giggled. "So you'd lay in your bed with your laptop and your vibrator and jerk off to me?"

"What the hell is wrong with… First of all, women don't jerk off, jack off, beat off or beat the bishop. We jill off, play with ourselves or masturbate." Lisa started. "Second, I don't use a vibrator. I prefer my hands. And third and last… yes… I would. You're… balls hot."

Ashley's face beamed with a schoolgirl-like smile. "Cool."

As Lisa turned off the car, Brooke walked up to the front of the car and stood. "Look at her. Looking like a walking wet dream."

Ashley burst into laughter as she stepped out of the car, grabbed her bag and slammed the door. Lisa followed suit as the stepped up onto the curb.

"Were you two talking about me?" Brooke asked.

"No" "Sure was!" Lisa and Ashley's respective answers were on top of one another.

"This one said you looked like a walking wet dream, which you do." Ashley said causing Brooke to let out a single chuckle. "Congratulations, by the way." Ashley said, kissing Brooke on the cheek.

"For what?"

"Your recent induction into… the group." Ashley said with a wink.

"I don't know what…" Brooke started to deny knowledge of anything.

"Mick sent out a text this morning. We know Taryn gave you the high, hard one last night." Lisa said.

Brooke then relaxed and allowed a huge smile to blanket her face. "Did she ever! And I gave it right back to her!" Brooke then realized something. "But Ashley, when did you…"

"Tonight." Ashley responded. "Lisa is going to do the high, hard honors for me."

"This is too fucking surreal!" Lisa threw her hands up turned as if she were going to walk away then turned back around. "Can we please go work out? This needs to disappear from my conscious mind for about an hour or two."

"You gonna… make it Rayne for me one day, Ash?" Brooke asked.

"Maybe." Ashley said with a coy smirk.

"Good." Brooke said as she stepped into Ashley's personal space. "Cause I'd love to Tess all over your face…"

Lisa stepped up and grabbed Brooke by the wrist. "Okay, you're done here!" She spun a giggling Brooke around and led her into the gym muttering under her breath. "Tess all over your face."

"You're just mad cause it was a good line." Brooke said with Ashley trailing her. Brooke turned around and winked at Ashley then turned back.

Ashley replayed the last exchange in her head. "It was a good line."

Wednesday, April 18, 2013 – 8:30 pm – Lisa's apartment – Orlando, Florida

Brooke, Lisa and Ashley had spent the entire day together. After working out, the three ladies went shopping, ate lunch then headed back to Lisa's apartment to watch a couple of movies. Normalcy reigned until Lisa's curiosity got the better of her.

"So Tess… you and Taryn last night, huh?"

"Good God, yes." Brooke said with a reverential air.

"That good?" Lisa asked.

"Yeah, Tess. Spill." Ashley said showing no outward emotion. But inside, she was screaming for as much intel as she could get.

"It's… okay to talk about this?" Brooke asked.

"Wait until I tell you what Layla and I did with a shower head in Charlotte in '02." Lisa teased.

"Wow!" Brooke chuckled. "Okay! Well, we… were all over each other. In the car, in her apartment…"

Ashley laughed and then cracked what she thought was going to be a joke. "Did you do the Asstastic on her?"

"Right in her face. No panties, nothing." Brooke admitted.

"I'd like to order one of those please." Lisa said making Brooke and Ashley laugh.

"I have never been… devoured like that in my life!" Brooke said just as her cell phone started to ring. "And that was before the strap-on. Hello?"

Lisa looked at Ashley and mouthed, "The strap-on?!"

"Hey Tesla. Congrats on your induction. Welcome aboard!"

"Thanks Kimmy! I appreciate that. What's up?" Kimmy was Brooke's occasional nickname for Gail.

"I know you've probably gotten a few offers but I was wondering if you wanted to… 'celebrate' with me."

"And by celebrate, you mean…"

"You're a big girl. I'm sure you can figure it out."

"Where are you?"

"I'm at my place. How soon can you get here?"

Brooke looked at Lisa. Before she could even say a word, Lisa had picked up on the vibe. "Go celebrate. Gail is gonna celebrate your ass into tomorrow!"

Brooke smiled. "Gimme 20 minutes."

"I'll be waiting." Gail hung up. Brooke hit end and took a moment to let it sink in.

"I'm in for a workout, aren't I?" Brooke asked.

"Yeah." Lisa deadpanned.

"Anything I need to know?" Brooke inquired.

"Gail is loud and loves dirty talk." Lisa said.

"And on that note…" Brooke stood up and made her way to the front door. "You ladies have a lovely evening and if I can walk, I'll see you on Friday!"

"Look at that, Ash. By tomorrow morning, she's gonna be Messy Tessy." Lisa joked.

"If the night was a good one, I will. Bye." Brooke waved and closed the door behind her.

When the door closed, Lisa looked at Ashley who returned the look. There was an awkward silence between the two women. They both had the same thought cross their minds. The thought was that it was the first time they had been alone since Ashley told Lisa that she wanted to be initiated by her. Lisa had never so much as given serious thought to Ashley as a sexual partner and now she was being tasked with being her best friend's first lesbian experience.

"Ash, are you sure you want to do this?" Lisa asked. "I mean, we can just say that we did this and you're in. And you don't have to rush. You can take your time and read up on what to do."

"I want to do this." Ashley began. "Something woke up inside me when Taryn kissed me and I want to explore it. Mentally, I am ready. But look, if this is gonna be too weird for you…"

"It's just… you've been my best friend for four years now and it's hard switching gears like that, I mean, I've known some of the other girls longer but…"

"Are you crushing on me?!" Ashley teased.

"Do not flatter yourself." Lisa deadpanned then smiled. "It's just… up until you asked me this morning to initiate you, I had never thought of you in that way."

"Okay." Ashley said softly and then retreated into a moment of thought. "Well, I may not know about hooking up with women but there is something that I know about…" Ashley slid closer to Lisa then proceeded to climb on top of her seated BFF, straddling her and grinding her pelvis. Lisa leaned back slightly upon feeling the familiar pull of her libido begin to spike.

"Ash, what are you doing?"

"Helping you feel about me in that way." Ashley said as she swiveled her hips, grinding into Lisa again. Lisa closed her eyes briefly. When she opened them, Ashley noticed that they were smoldering. "Is it working?"

"So far, so good." Lisa strained to say as Ashley continued to grind on her. "God, if I had a dick I'd be REALLY hard right now." Ashley let out a sexy chuckle and bit her bottom lip as she looked at Lisa. "Okay. I'm definitely starting to think about you like that."

"Well let me help move your thought process along." Ashley said just before leaning in and pressing her lips to Lisa's for the first time. Just as quickly as she did, she pulled back, determined to put her sexuality on full display. "Open your mouth." Lisa stretched her eyes, stunned that this woman that was almost like a sister to her was suddenly seducing her, quite successfully. Lisa parted her lips and Ashley pressed her lips to Lisa's again, this time delivering an extremely passionate French kiss. She combined that with another round of grinding that made Lisa squirm. Moments later, Lisa broke the kiss.

"You lied to me." Lisa started. "You know exactly what you're doing."

"I didn't lie." Ashley said. "I don't know what I'm doing with women. But I didn't say I didn't know what do to period." Ashley rolled her hips again causing Lisa to snake her body underneath. "I fucking make it Rayne."

Lisa could take no more. She grabbed Ashley by the back of her hair and kissed her roughly. Ashley moaned a low, guttural moan that was several octaves lower than her normal voice. The more involved the kissing got, the harder Ashley gyrated in Lisa's lap.

"I know the perfect positions for you." Lisa breathlessly uttered. "You are gonna be a trib queen."

"I watch porn. I know exactly what that is. I think that would be fun." Ashley growled. The two women began another round of the most intense kissing that either woman had ever experienced. They began pawing at each other's clothes making quick work of the outer garments. Lisa quickly removed Ashley's bra and wrapped her lips around Ashley's left nipple. The younger woman hissed in approval. Despite the fact that Ashley had breast implants, she still maintained all of her sensitivity. Ashley cradled Lisa's head as the brunette beauty pleasured her. When Lisa switched to the other breast, Ashley practically melted.

Lisa took this opportunity to stand up with the smaller woman. Ashley instinctively wrapped her legs around Lisa's waist. The intense make out session continued. "You are gonna be so ready for Taryn when I'm done with you." Lisa whispered.

"Taryn or anybody else." Ashley panted. Lisa quickly walked the two of them back to her bedroom, over to and then onto the bed. Ashley began writhing around underneath her. "You have got to do something to me other than kissing me."

Lisa grinned. "What did you have in mind?"

"I… wouldn't mind seeing the top of your head for a few minutes." Ashley said.

Lisa laughed. "I think…" Lisa kissed Ashley. "That can be arranged." Lisa then got up on her knees and reached around behind her to remove her bra.

"Let the girls breathe!" Ashley joked as she sat up. Lisa laughed as she tossed her bra off to the side. A moment later, Ashley began flicking her tongue on Lisa's nipple.

"Shit, girl!" Lisa exclaimed. "You… keep doing that, I'm gonna call you Ashley…" Lisa's breath caught in her throat as she experienced Ashley's on-target tongue work. "Fuck!" Lisa cupped Ashley's head and pulled her up for another deep kiss before pushing her onto her back. Ashley inhaled sharply as Lisa flopped down on top of her and began kissing down the midline of her body, between her breasts to her navel. Lisa swirled her tongue around Ashley's navel eliciting a mixture of laughter and arousal before continuing a descent that ended with a long, deliberate opening lick of Ashley's labia and clit. Ashley's entire body shuddered as she cried out.

"I… am so sensitive!" Ashley cried.

"So it won't take you long to come." Lisa smirked.

"No." Ashley breathed.

"You might even multiple." Lisa added.

"I can't take that." Ashley said.

"Let's see. You're stronger than you think." Lisa encouraged before several long, deliberate licks.

Ashley sharply gasped. "What the fuck?!" Lisa simply hummed and continued her licking strokes. Ashley let out several more high-pitched intakes of air made staccato but the shuddering of her body. "Lisa!"

"That's my name. Wear it out, baby." Lisa confidently replied as she continued. Every licking stroke found its mark with marksman-like accuracy. Lisa then decided to change up in mid-stream and focused short, quick flicks of her tongue on Ashley's swollen clit.

Ashley let out a loud, sharp "YEAH!" and ran the fingers of both hands through Lisa's hair. When Lisa began sucking her clit, Ashley gritted her teeth and growled "FUCK!" and began to swivel her hips and grind herself into Lisa's face. Lisa took that as a cue that she was being successful and cranked up her intensity. "Come on! Come on! Make me… COME! SHIT!" Immediately following Ashley's profane outburst, her words became prophecy as her orgasm seized control of her entire body sending it into several different directions at once. Lisa stayed steady and kissed Ashley's inner thighs as she rode the wave of her orgasm. Once Ashley recovered, the depth charge that had been set insider her erupted. She pulled Lisa up by her hair to her mouth and began deep-kissing her once again. Tasting herself on Lisa's lips seemed to fuel her even more. Lisa already knew that despite her diminutive frame, Ashley was quite strong. She displayed that strength when she turned her body, grabbed Lisa by the arms and flung her onto her back. Before Lisa could respond with one of her quick-witted barbs, she found her legs splayed and Ashley's mouth making a beeline for her core.

"Ash, maybe I should coach you…" Ashley wrapped her lips around Lisa's clit and began a sucking-flicking motion that made Lisa change her tune. "OH HELL NO! NO COACHING NEEDED! HOLY SHIT!" With her first oral move, Ashley had locked in on Lisa for the kill. For the first time that she could remember, Lisa had no control over what was happening to her. Lisa groaned and purred in delight as she first grabbed her own breasts then began to pinch and roll her nipples as Ashley worked her below. "Oh!… God!… ASHLEY!... FUCK!" Lisa's utterance was significant in that she only called her best friend Ashley when something was wrong. Ash was her moniker of choice. On this night, everything was right and TNA's Madison Rayne had earned her full name. "Good girl!" Lisa exclaimed. "Rookie… of the year!" Ashley proceeded to gently push back Lisa's clitoral hood and give her a set of concentrated licks. Lisa filled her lungs with air then quickly snatched a pillow, put it up to her face and screamed at the top of her lungs. Ashley felt a surge of warm fluid flow over her chin and a sharp, muffled "GODDAMNIT!" from behind the pillow.

Ashley snatched the pillow out of Lisa's hands and saw Lisa gasping for air with a slightly delirious look on her face, the victim of an orgasm that nearly took her out. Ashley bent down frantically kissing Lisa back to a state of clarity.

"Ohmigod! This is so fuckin' fun!" Ashley said giddily. Lisa chuckled at her best friend's enthusiasm. Just then, the women heard the phone in Lisa's pocket ring. Normally in that situation they would have ignored it but the ringtone that blared belonged to Mickie. Lisa decided she had to mess with her longtime friend.

"Gimme the phone!" Lisa said still catching her breath. "I'll be quick, I swear."

"Okay." Ashley said with a smile as she flipped over to grab the phone. She grabbed it and swiveled back around to give it to Lisa.

Lisa hit the speaker button just as Ashley nestled back in between Lisa's legs and gave her a long lick that jolted her.

"Hey… MICK!" Lisa said in mid-jolt.

"Are you okay?"

"I'm… COOL! A… Ash… is just eat… eating me out… right now… FUCK!"

Mickie began laughing. "What kind of a turnip truck do you think I fell off of today? That girl is not eating you out."

Ashley looked up at Lisa. "Tell her to FaceTime you."

"WHAT?!"

"Do it! It will blow her mind." Ashley said. "She'll see me doing this firsthand soon enough." Ashley then bent down and continued her slow oral assault.

"Mick? FaceTime me." Lisa strained to say then rolled her eyes into the back of her head.

"HA! I'm gonna humor you and do it so you can finish up your little joke." Mickie hung up the call. Seconds later, Lisa's FaceTime rang. She looked down at Ashley who did not stop to look up. Lisa answered. "Okay, so you're laying on the bed." Lisa tilted the camera down. "Okay, so you're naked." Lisa then hissed and squirmed in reaction to Ashley. "Now where is Miss Ashley?" Lisa shakily hit the reverse camera on the phone and adjusted it so Mickie could see the top of her head. "Okay, so you staged her in between your legs…" Just as Mickie was about to finish the sentence, Ashley did the most devilish thing she had ever done. She separated her mouth from Lisa just enough for Mickie to see her flick her tongue on Lisa's clit. "AND she's tonguing your clit! OH… MIGOD!"

"I have to…"

"GO! With my blessing, go! Ash, welcome… to The Diamond Exchange! Jesus…" Mickie disconnected the call.

Ashley hopped up on her knees and snatched the phone. "Put the fuckin' phone down." Ashley then tossed it onto the floor. "Look at what I learned in the movies…" Ashley then positioned herself in a scissor position above Lisa and exposed her own clit before lowering it onto Lisa's and starting to grind in the same way she did when they started kissing. Lisa looked up at her and groaned in ecstasy and shook her head back and forth, not believing that this was the same Ashley Cabot that she knew.

Lisa slammed her fists into the mattress several times then began clutching the sheets as Ashley swayed, rocked and bucked above her. They both knew that only moments remained before their most magnificent endings. Both women bore down, channeling all of their energy into securing their release.

"I'm gonna come, Lise! Come with me!"

"Yeah! Yeah! YE…" Both women cried out nearly simultaneously as they blissfully shattered.

Ashley collapsed half on top of Lisa and half to the side. She then sexily curled up in to a ball before unfurling herself next to her prone partner. Lisa began chuckling

"YOU…" Lisa lifted her arm and began wagging it in Ashley's general direction as Ashley began laughing and clapping. "Have been holding out on me!

Ashley sighed deeply. "I've been holding out on myself. No more though." Ashley then draped her arm over Lisa, resting her palm on Lisa's stomach. "That was GOOD. I so needed that."

"You are intense. Are you always this intense in the bedroom?"

"Not normally. I kind of let Jesse take the lead."

"Well… you save the intense for the women. You'll be a frickin' star."

"So I won't embarrass myself in the group?"

"Ash, you will have every single one of those heifers bouncing off the walls with what you've got." Lisa admitted. Ashley beamed and bit her lip in the way that Lisa found so cute and endearing. "You made it Rayne today."

Ashley then began making noise with her mouth. It was the bassline to rap song that incorporated her ring name that she adopted as her unofficial underground theme song, with a few of her personal tweaks included. It was the remixed version of Fat Joe's Make It Rain

"Dun, dun, dun, dun , dun, dun, dun, dun, DUNNNNNN…. ROXANNE! (It's Rayne, Bitches!) You don't have to turn off your red light… Static! Let's make it rain on these Knockouts!

Yeah, I'm in this bitch with the terror
Gotta handful of stacks, better grab an umbrella
I make it rain, I make it rain
I'm in this bitch with the terror
Gotta handful of stacks, better grab an umbrella
I make it rain, I make it rain I make it rain on them hoes
I make it rain, I make it rain (Remix! Remix! We back!)
I make it rain, I make it rain on them hoes

I be drilling these chicks like Major Payne
When I make it rain, they be like " Ash, do it again"
From the club to the coupe, inside my gates
Up in my bedroom screaming each other names
They was perty perty, and I was flirty flirty
Lil' Lis, Lil' Mick now they getting' dirty dirty
Don't ax me what my name is, stupid bitch I'm famous
You gon' make me aim this
Leave your ass brainless
I'm tryin' to stay R&B
But streets is a part of me
So don't get it twisted
You see I talk to one Knockout, then I fuck with one Knockout
Then I talk to more Knockouts, now I got more Knockouts
I'm from that city where Ashley don't play man
I take a chick to my room like caveman
So ask your girlfriend my name, I bet she go
"Skeet skeet skeet skeet skeet, Madison 'bout to make it rain!"

Lisa began laughing loudly and clapping. "You are hilarious! That is why I LOVE you!" Lisa proclaimed.

"But not in love. Don't get all up in your feelings!" Ashley teased.

"You are stupid!" Lisa joked. "So, now do you think you're ready for Taryn?"

"Yeah. I'm ready. And do you know why, Lisa Marie Varon?"

"Because you make it Rayne?"

"Because I make it Rayne."


Show of hands if you saw this chapter coming. My hand isn't up either. But pieces fell into place and again, the chapter wrote itself. Ashley aka Madison Rayne is now a member of The Diamond Exchange. And she was initiated by her best friend Lisa. I figured that Ashley wanted to have a little experience in her back pocket if and when she finally gets together with Taryn. Boy, is Taryn in for a treat. But before we go down that road, there is another road that we have to go down. We learned a stunning bit of info about Nikki and Brie's past. They had a sexual encounter as teenagers. We also learned a stunning bit of info about their present. Brie still wants Nikki. And Nikki, after a brief but intense physical fight with Brie, finally admitted to herself that she was in love with her own twin sister. How is this gonna shake out? Chapter 11 is next. But you know what you have to do before we get there… REVIEW CHAPTER 10. DUECES.
