    About fifteen minutes after coming back inside, Faith instant messaged 
Jason. The two had worked on several projects together, Faith completing the 
software programming work on equipment that Jason was doing post-production 
on. Along the way they'd developed the sort of low-key friendship that 
managed to slip under the radar of the people around them.
    With Faith dating Steve they hadn't gotten together that often, but every 
once in a while they slipped out for a clandestine lunch together, leaving in 
separate cars and meeting somewhere because the rumour mill at the small 
company of eighty people was just too severe to be borne.
    'wu ?' he asked in IM-speak.
    'nm,' Faith typed. 'u still interested in getting it on with Giselle ?'
    ''getting it on ?''
    'u no what I mean.'
    'yeah.'
    'really interested ?'
    'yes. wu ?'
    Faith thought about how few cigarettes were left in the pack she'd gotten 
from Elisa last night.
    'hey- I heard you were smoking out back. that tru ?'
    'yes.'
    'i would have loved to c that.'
    'y ?'
    There was no response so she pressed on.
    'just- never u mind. meet me behind the building at 11:40. don't be 
late. bring two packs of marlboro lights 100s and a lighter.'
    'what ?'
    'just do it. you'll get your chance to see me smoke then. don't be late.'
    Faith wrote an apple script to send an IM to Elisa at 11:45 and went back 
to work.

    Josh showed up on time, bearing gifts, and confused.
    'Are you going to tell me what's going on now ?'
    Faith took the two packs of cigarettes. She pulled the cellophane off one 
pack and handed it back to Josh, then stowed the other in her purse. She 
extracted a cigarette from her pack and lit it.
    'Yes, I am. You have three minutes to start smoking, okay ?'
    'What ?'
    'Giselle will go out with you, Jay, but you have to smoke.'
    'But I don't smoke.'
    'What about those pictures you showed me of Bobby's bachelour's party ?'
    'All right, I like a good cigar now and then.'
    'Well, that's not going to be good enough. You have smoked cigarettes 
before, haven't you ?'
    'In high school. Boy, you're having quite a twenty-four hours. You start 
smoking, you come out of the closet, and now you're trying to corrupt me.'
    'You heard about that ?'
    Josh watched her take a deep draw on her cigarette. It was an amazing 
thing to see, the way she pulled until her cheeks sank towards each other. 
Her eyes rolled back in her head in a way that reminded him of how chocolate 
affected her.
    'I guess you did want to see me smoke,' she said, talking through the 
exhale.
    'Yes and yes. Jim has told everyone but his father that you and Elisa are 
sneaking off to have lesbian love. I assume you're yanking his chain- but 
you're not helping your case with the guys here. Repressed sweetie was one 
thing- now that you're a lesbian- and smoking, you're going to have to beat 
them off with sticks- that bad girl image-'
    'Lesbians aren't bad-'
    'You know what I mean.'
    Faith glanced at her watch. 'You have two minutes. Do you need help ?'
    'No,' Jason said, waving his hand. 'I just have to remember that I can 
inhale cigarette smoke without getting sick and that I don't need to puff on 
it repeatedly just to keep it lit. Do I really need to smoke ?'
    'Yes,' Faith said impatiently. 'Now listen carefully.' She watched him 
pull a cigarette from the pack and light it. He accomplished both without 
looking too awkward. His inhale wasn't exactly right, but she thought it 
would do.
    'Elisa and Giselle will be out her in about one minute. Act very casual 
about the fact that you're smoking. Make small talk and then ask if we want 
to go out to lunch with you.'
    'All of you ? How is that-'
    'Elisa I will say no. Giselle will say yes. Turn on the charm at lunch 
and Giselle will probably ask you out to dinner. You will know what to do 
from that point, right ?'
    'You're patronizing me, Faith,' he said, playing on an old joke between 
them.
    'Well, next time don't make me set you up and I won't do that. You act 
like you don't know you're the hottest fucking guy in the whole company.'
    Jason blushed and Faith smiled.

    'I don't know. She just IMed me and told me to meet her outside right 
away and that you'd better be with me.'
    The hallway leading to the smoking area was dark. The lights hadn't 
worked here in a year and for some reason the maintenance staff- really one 
guy named Max who fit occasional fits of work around hours of endless, 
good-natured chatter-hadn't replaced them. It was possible to stand with in a 
few feet of the door on a sunny day and watch the people outside without them 
seeing you.
    The women stopped in their tracks when they realised that Faith was 
standing there smoking with and talking to Jason.
    'I must say that I'm impressed,' Giselle.
    'Whatever do you mean ?' Elisa asked in a formal teasing voice.
    'Twelve hours ago you were still working on tricking Faith into smoking- 
God I wish I could have been there-'
    'You blew us off for dinner theatre with your brother-'
    'Point taken. Next time you decide to corrupt someone, I'm in.'
    'Maybe next time,' Elisa said, 'it will be you.'
    Giselle kind of liked the sound of that. 'Anyway- since then, Faith has- 
let me catalogue it- started smoking openly, joked about being a lesbian and 
having a manage a quatre, and now it looks like she's gotten Jason to smoke, 
with the idea of setting us up.'
    'Well, you'd better hope that's what she is doing. Look at the way he's 
staring at her. And don't forget she used the f word in casual conversation.'
    'At this rate, I wouldn't be surprised if you came back on Monday and 
told me that you did have sex with her.'
    'Stranger things have happened. Look, let's get out there before Jason 
creams himself off watching her smoking. Even I'm surprised at the way it 
gives her kind of a bad girl look. Get her a tat and a eyebrow piercing and-'
    'Don't there,' Giselle said. 'I don't think the rest of us would have 
any hope.'
    They walked outside.
    Jason looked up at them and smiled and then took a drag on his cigarette 
that Faith deemed passable if the tiniest bit clumsy. She wondered what was 
happening to her. Twenty four hours ago she would not have believed that she 
would be out here smoking and now she was rating someone else's smoking sty
le. Strange.
    Elisa put on her best smile and tossed her blonde hair as she pulled a 
cigarette from the pack in her hand.
    'I didn't know that you smoked, Jason-'
    'I heard the three most attractive women in the company get together to 
smoke out here so I thought it best to join them.'
    He deftly lit Elisa's cigarette and then followed suit with Giselle. Just 
as he went to give her a light the wind picked up. Giselle saw his hand 
trembling slightly- as if he might be nervous- and she reached up to steady hi
s hand with hers. His skin was warm, taunt, and smooth and his hand steadied 
immediately. The corners of his mouth turned up at the touch. She could feel 
the way his hand changed shape as he thumbed the lighter and she had the 
dirtiest thought about what he could do with that fine dexterity.
    She traced circles on his hand with her index finger as he lit the 
cigarette, making the most of the contact. He didn't seem to mind and he let 
his hand linger as she drew on the cigarette.
    Then the contact was broken. Giselle turned her head to the side, arched 
her neck and exhaled a stream of milky white. 'Thank you,' she whispered 
sultrily. 
    'Any time,' he said, and they might just as well have been alone in that 
first moment of real contact. 
    Then he turned his attention back to all of them.
    'Speaking of spending time with the three most attractive women I know,' 
he began, upping the stakes, 'how would you all like to have lunch together ?'
    Faith thought it was an unsophisticated but effective transition and she 
gave him high marks for his enthusiasm and pliability.
    'Well, I'm in,' Giselle said, and then added, looking at her friends 'I 
don't suppose there's any chance the two of you can join us, is there ?' 
clearing indicating the answer should be no.
    'We're not packed yet, and we have to stop by both our houses before we 
leave. In fact, as soon as we finish our cigarettes,' Faith said, pausing to 
light one, 'we should be going.' 
    Elisa drew on her VS 120. 'I agree. We'll take a rain cheque.'
    They stood and traded small talk for a few minutes.

    Faith followed Elisa back to her place. They walked inside the tastefully 
decorated condominium and Elisa excused herself to head upstairs and pack. 
Faith's footsteps were loud as she walked across the hardwood floor into the 
living room. She pulled out her cell phone and dialed her mother's cell 
number.
    Surprisingly, mom answered after one ring.
    'Hey, honey. What's up ?'
    'I guess you added that caller ID service, huh ?'
    Faith's voice was loud in the open space of the condominium, openness 
that complemented the floors nicely.
    'Yes, your father has become a great big ass pain ever since he decided 
he may have made a mistake six years ago. It's really quite annoying. What's 
up ? Everything okay ?"
    "Yeah, I'm just waiting for Elisa to pack, then we'll stop by my place 
and be on our way. I just- I wanted to tell you something now"
    There was a long pause, and the absurdly loud sound of a lighter in the 
open space. Faith drew deeply on the cigarette, exhaled. White smoke drifted 
lazily though the room.
    "I've started smoking again, Mom."
    "That's wonderful, dear. I had a feeling that you were doing more than 
just revisiting your teenaged sins this morning. So what's the big deal ?"
    "Well, I just- I wanted you to know ahead of time because I don't want 
you or Josephine to make a big deal out of it."
    "Are you enjoying it or was it just peer pressure ?"
    "Peer pressure ? Oh, you mean Elisa ? She helped, but I'm glad she did. 
She really is amazing."
    "Well, honey, tell me what happened so i can tell Josephine. That way we 
can pretend you never stopped and that's it no big deal to see you indulging 
in the family habit."
"You've never actually seen me smoke, Mom. "
'Yes, but I imagine that you're very good at it. So spill already."
    "Well, Elisa took me out last night to forget about Steve and well, 
that's not all I forgot about by the end of the night."
    "You got passed out drunk ?" her mom asked, comprehending but 
incredulous. This was a girl who'd never passed out drinking, not even in 
college.
    "Yes, I got smashed. But before I did I told- well, I guess I told her 
that I used to smoke in high school and the next thing I was smoking again. 
She left me some cigarettes and I had such an hangover this morning that-"
"Smoking is really a wonderful purgative for an hangover, isn't it ?"
    "Yes. So anyway, I am smoking right now."
    "Are you going to stick with it ?"
    "I think so. I can't believe how much I'm enjoying it, to be honest.'
    'It's about time you started behaving like an adult and enjoying 
yourself a little bit.'
    'Next you'll be telling me I need to get laid.'
    'Well, we'll try to find a nice man for you, but if that doesn't work 
out you and Elisa are sharing a room.'
    'Mom !'
    'Look hon, I have to go. I'll see you tonight.'

    
    Upstairs, thanks to the wide open acoustics of the downstairs, Elisa 
could hear every word Faith spoke. She wasn't really meaning to eavesdrop. 
She was sitting on the bathroom sink in her panties, trying to decide what to 
wear and bring along. She lit a cigarette and watched herself smoke in the 
mirror. She was thinking about how far Faith had come in a space of less than 
a day.
    "I've started smoking again, Mom."
    Pause. Elisa liked the way her friend said it, not apologetic but merely 
matter of fact.
    "Well, I just- I wanted you to know ahead of time because I don't want 
you or Josephine to make a big deal out of it."
    Another pause. So she was going to continue smoking, not that Elisa had 
entertained any serious doubts. Elisa found her free hand drifting down 
inside her panties. Her finger- the only flesh she'd had sex with in at least 
two months, knew just what to do.
    "Peer pressure ? Oh, you mean Elisa ? She helped, but I'm glad she did. 
She really is amazing."
    No, you're amazing. Elisa thought. That long curly red hair, the sweet 
face, those beautiful breasts and the best part of it was that Faith had no 
clue how fucking gorgeous she was.
"You've never actually seen me smoke, Mom."
Elisa closed her eyes and let herself drift among the images that she'd 
seen today. Faith smoking and driving in the rearview had been-
    "Well, Elisa took me out last night to forget about Steve and well, 
that's not all I forgot about by the end of the night."
    Faith was so damn adorable when she was drunk.
    "Yes, I got smashed. But before I did I told- well, I guess I told her 
that I used to smoke in high school and the next thing I was smoking again. 
She left me some cigarettes and I had such an hangover this morning that-"
    Elisa thought back to what she had done and the evil- the sweet sort of 
evil that really wasn't- was so delicious she almost climaxed right then.
    "Yes. So anyway, I am smoking right now."
    Gentle swirls around her warm, moist opening. Two fingers that felt 
almost like the real thing.
    "I think so. I can't believe how much I'm enjoying it, to be honest.'
    I did that to her, she thought.
'Next you'll be telling me I need to get laid.'
The orgasm came, Elisa moaning so quietly and longingly.
    'Mom !'
    Then there were the sounds of footsteps on the stairs. Elisa collected 
herself, ran water over her hand and toweled it off.
    'Elisa ?' came a questioning voice just outside the door. 'What are you 
doing ?'
    'Just masturbating,' Elisa said. She had meant to say thinking. No, 
masturbating. No-
    Elisa stuck her head inside the doorway.
    'What ?' she asked, but the sound in her voice was pleasant, almost a 
laugh.
    'Just joking. I was washing up and trying to decide what to wear.'
    Faith put a fresh cigarette between her lips, lit it, pulled it from her 
mouth and exhaled.
    'Funny you should mention masturbating. I hope to hell there are some 
cute guys up there because ever since I started smoking I am so fucking horny 
I could ball a doorknob.'
    She was standing in profile and she brought the cigarette up to her mouth 
again. Her lips made a bed for the filter, which slid between them like oiled 
silk. Her cheeks contracted and soon smoke was jetting from her pert nostrils 
as the cigarette moved to a waiting position at the right of her face, where 
she held it pointing just slightly back of straight up.
    Faith noticed that Elisa's nipples were practically tearing holes in her 
bra.
    'I'm sorry. I know you haven't been with anyone in a while and it's 
selfish of me to talk about being horny.'
    'Hey, if you're horny, you're horny. Trust me, I feel exactly the same 
way right now. I'd kiss a potato if it would kiss me back.'
    Faith studied Elisa's expressive green eyes. She watched her friend bring 
a VS 120 to her waiting mouth and make love to it. The exhale was slow, 
luxurious, sensual.
    'Elisa, I have to preface this by saying that I am not in the least bit 
gay- not that there is anything wrong with that-'
    'Go on-'
    But Faith was done talking. She walked over to her friend, put her left 
hand up on Elisa's right breast, stroking her nipple through the bra. Her 
right hand, extending the cigarette carefully away from Elisa's hair, went 
behind her head and pulled her forward. Then she leaned in and put her pale, 
perfect lips on Elisa's, feeling them slid slightly against the woman's 
heather pink lipstick. Her tongue darted into her friend's mouth and met 
passionate resistance.
    Their eyes were open, locked on one another. It was lust, not love, but 
right now lust was fine.
    Faith tasted the smokiness of Elisa's mouth and loved it. She ran her 
tongue along Elisa's teeth and then plunged deep in her mouth again, fighting 
for control. Elisa fought back. It was easily the most passionate kiss that 
Faith had ever shared with anyone.
    Finally they broke the kiss.
    Elisa put her cigarette down in the ashtray and shared a knowing look 
with Faith, who did the same. Faith held out her arms and Elisa pulled off 
her bra and shirt in one smooth motion. While Faith unsnapped Elisa's bra, 
Elisa undid Faith's jeans and pulled them and her underwear down around her 
ankles, even as her own drifted towards the floor.
    They stepped away from their clothes, smoked briefly, and kissed again. 
This time they pressed tightly against one another, Faith discovering how 
wonderful a woman's breast could feel against her. Elisa's free hand drifted 
down until she was able to get two fingers inside and she began to pleasure 
Faith. Faith's tongue darted in and out of Elisa's mouth, a writhing snake. 
She took in Elisa's smell as she kissed her harder, harder, trying to bore to 
the back of her throat as Elisa pushed as hard or harder. They wrapped their 
legs around one another and Faith tried to get her hand inside her friend, 
but Elisa broke the kiss only long enough to say 'Your turn. I was 
masturbating before. Catch up.'
    Faith relaxed. They broke the kiss at intervals to smoke and then started 
up again, smoke swapping between them before finally sneaking out through 
their noses.
    They continued to kiss even after Faith's orgasm.
    They stubbed out their cigarettes and still they kissed. They made their 
way over to the bed, lips still dancing across each other. Faith was in love 
with the feel of this woman, the shape of the lips, the strength of her 
tongue, the way she could smell clean and like smoke all at once. The green 
of her eyes, like her own.
    Faith grabbed an handful of Elisa's hair and pulled, not hard but 
sensuously. They were sweating heavily as Faith forced Elisa down on the bed. 
She broke the kiss, slid down a bit, and began sucking hard and fast on 
Elisa's right nipple, her tongue all over the nipple, making it so hard it 
hurt, but in that good way.
    She stayed there only a moment and then moved farther down.
    'You don't have to do that,' Elisa said. 'God, I hope you do, but you 
don't have to.'
    'I want to,' Faith said. 'So bad. This is all about sex. If you can 
handle that-
    'I can. I still hope to God there's some hot guys there but right now I 
want you so badly-'
    Elisa reached over to the nightstand and opened a wooden cigar box. She 
took out a cigar and handed it to Faith, who knew exactly what to do with it. 
Elisa then pulled a Marlboro Lights 100 from the other pack of open 
cigarettes and lit it.
    Reaching up, Faith continued to bring painful pleasure to Elisa's right 
nipple as she explored Elisa's moist warm passion with her tongue. She slid 
the cigar in below the notch of flesh she was certain would arouse Elisa the 
most and thrust it in and out, slowly at first but with building momentum as 
Elisa's breathing became more ragged. She stole what glances she could of her 
friend smoking and found it drove her each time to new heights of frenzy. She 
was glad Elisa had already brought herself to orgasm because it took longer 
the second time. She was thrusting furiously with the cigar when Elisa began 
a long, low, moan that would have frightened her under any other 
circumstance. Then her whole body quivered and finally Elisa had to push 
Faith away.
    'Oh my God ! You are good. I mean-'
    'No talk.' Faith rolled over, twisted around and landed herself on top 
of Elisa and began kissing her furiously again. 'God, I just love your 
fucking mouth,' she said through the kiss and Elisa mumbled 'Likewise.'
    They broke this next kiss and Elisa reached out to take the cigar from 
Faith, who held it away and shook her head. She reached over and took another 
one out of the box and handed it to Elisa. She then put her own between her 
lips and held it there, looking for all the world like a red-haired Kimberley 
Davies.
    Elisa knew a few tricks that Faith had not considered. She thrust it in 
and out at random angles, gently but firmly exploring new geometries that 
Faith did her best to remember. Every one of them felt good and she was sure 
Elisa was exciting places with the cigar that nothing had ever touched, like 
an aggressive vagina explorer. All the while her strong, supple tongue was 
creating waves of desire and sensation. If Elisa had a penis, Faith knew, she 
would have been lost forever. She bit down on the cigar and found it still 
retained a wonderful rich taste. She was amazed it had survived the journey 
it had been on. She liked the way it felt between her teeth. She had a sense 
of power and she imagined how devilish and sexy she must look, even though it 
was unlit.
    And that was when Elisa did something, so indescribable yet distinct that 
Faith screamed. Her nails dug into Elisa's back and drew blood and she 
screamed again, long and loud and full of passion as the orgasm ripped 
through her, painfully pleasurable. It didn't stop. She screamed again, and 
again, the third one making her hoarse. The cigar came out and Elisa stopped, 
afraid that she had somehow hurt Faith.
    'Put it back,' Faith whispered hoarsely. 'Oh god, more.'
    Elisa gave her more and she screamed again and again until she was 
breathless and still she demanded more.
    Finally done, her breath coming in ragged short bursts, Faith put the 
cigar down, pulled two cigarettes from the pack and lit them both. She sat up 
and Elisa straddled her from behind as she took the proffered cigarette and 
smoked.
    'Well, if that was supposed to make me less horny, we have a problem,' 
Faith said, enjoying the way Elisa's nipples were poking into her back.
    'This beats the fuck out of an afternoon in the office, doesn't it ?'
    'Fuck yeah.'
    'I suppose we should get in the shower and get going so we're not late.'
    'Just sit against me until we're done smoking'
    'We'll never be done smoking.'
    Faith leaned back against her.
    'I hope you're right.'
    Nothing else was said until they were done smoking. When their cigarettes 
were finished Elisa stood up and smiled, looking at Faith with new respect. 
'It's a damn good thing we like guys.'
    'Why's that ?' Faith said.
    'Because otherwise I don't think I'd ever want to leave this room again.'
    Faith stood up and took Elisa's hand.
    'You have a good point.'
    'Does that mean I should leave the cigars here ?'
    'Fuck no,' Faith said, and kissed Elisa hard one more time.
    Then they showered and they did leave the room. 
But that's another story.
