paper around her taco, lifted the dripping concoction to her mouth, and took a bite. Her teeth crunched through the corn tortilla shell. Inside was a mixture of cool shredded lettuce and cheddar cheese, hot sauce and hot, spicy, shredded beef. She moaned with pleasure as the flavors filled her mouth.
The shredded beef was springy. After a lot of chewing, she swallowed and took a long drink from her Pepsi.
Then she said, “You were going to tell me about a restroom adventure?”
Toby chewed and nodded. As he swallowed, he glanced around as if afraid someone might overhear him. Then he leaned forward. Speaking quietly, he said, “There was a girl in the john.”
“In the men’s room?”
“Yeah. She came out of a stall while I was…you know, going.”
Sherry grinned. “Holy Toledo,” she said. “You were at a urinal?”
He blushed. “Yeah. With my thing out and everything.”
“Jeez.”
“She came up behind me and put a hand on my rear end and asked me if I wanted her to…uh, you know…give me a blow job.”
“You’re kidding.”
Eyes wide, he shook his head. “I swear to God.”
“Wow.”
“Yeah. Never had that happen before.”
“So, did you take her up on the offer?”
He looked shocked. “No! Are you nuts?”
Smiling, Sherry shrugged. “What’d she look like?”
“I don’t know, she looked pretty good. She looked a lot like you, but not nearly as pretty. And she didn’t have short hair like yours. Hers was down to her shoulders. I like it a lot better your way.”
“So, what else? What was she wearing?”
Toby grimaced and shook his head. “Nothing.”
“Nothing?”
“I’m not kidding. She was starkers. Totally.”
“You were in the men’s restroom, a naked girl came out of a stall while you were peeing, put a hand on your butt and asked if you wanted a blow job?”
“Yeah. That’s what happened.”
“And she was good-looking?”
“She was great looking.”
“And you turned her down?”
“Sure.”
“Why?”
He shrugged, said, “I’m not that kinda guy,” then took a large bite of taco.
Smiling, Sherry shook her head. “That’s amazing.”
He shrugged again and chewed.
“Did she ask for money?”
He shook his head.
“What did she want?”
After swallowing, Toby said, “I don’t know. She didn’t say. Just that she’d like to…you know, do that to me. She had that hand on my rear end, you know? And then she reached in front of me with her other hand and…took hold of my, uh…thing.”
“Lord.”
“I was sort of like done going by then. But she was holding me and she said, ‘Your cock’s wet, honey. Want me to blow it dry for you?’”
“You’ve gotta be shitting me,” Sherry whispered.
Face red and twisted into a half-smile, Toby said, “I couldn’t believe it myself.”
“So then what happened?”
“I pulled her hand away and said ‘Thanks anyway, but I’m saving myself for the woman I love.’
” “You said that?”
“Sure. Why not? It’s just the truth.”
“So then what happened?”
“She said, ‘If you change your mind, you know where to find me.’ Then she went back into the stall.”
Astonished, Sherry shook her head. “You think she’s still in
there?”
“I guess so. I don’t think she can leave without coming out through there.” He nodded toward the passageway behind Sherry.
“Tell me if she comes out. I’d like to get a load of her.”
“I’ll let you know.”
They continued eating for a while. Then Sherry said, “Weren’t you tempted?”
“Huh?”
“To let her do it?”
Toby swallowed, took a drink, then said, “Not really.”
“Most guys I’ve ever known, they’d kill for a chance like that.”
Blushing, he shrugged. “Maybe if I was by myself. But not with you sitting out here waiting for me.”
“A couple more minutes wouldn’t have hurt.”
“It’s not that. It would’ve been an insult to you.”
“Not if I didn’t know about it. Even if I did know…no reason for me to be insulted.”
“Anyway,” Toby said, “it just seemed like a really crummy idea. And dirty. I wouldn’t want to mess around with someone like her.”
“Well, I can’t knock that. Good for you.”
“Oh, hey.”
“What? Is she coming?”
“Huh-uh. But it looks like there’s a guy on his way to the john.”
Twisting around, Sherry glimpsed the teenaged boy as he walked beneath the BANOS sign. A moment later, he disappeared down the passageway.
“Oh, shit,” she muttered.
“What’s wrong?”
“I suppose she’ll try him.”
“Sure she will.”
What’ll he do? Sherry wondered. He was obviously madly in love with the girl at his table. But how many guys would be able to resist such temptation?
“You want to do me a favor, Toby?”
He met her eyes. “Anything. Just name it.”
“Go back in there. She probably won’t try anything if there’re two people in the john.”
