Paige was thrilled to land herself a part-time after school job at the Angel Falls library, located on the campus of Winston University. Paige had a fascination with books ever since she learned to read, frequently losing herself in stories of other people's lives and adventures. Being in a building surrounded by books felt like her natural habitat. She gladly did the grunge work of taking the books that were checked back in and placing them back on their original shelves, and as time went on she became more and more invaluable in helping the various patrons locate the books and materials they needed for various projects, assignments, or just for their own interests and enjoyment.
Just the feel of a book in her hands made her feel content, and to get paid for doing something the enjoyed so much was just about perfect for her. She knew this was the profession she would end up choosing. Even when she wasn't scheduled to work there, she would often be found hanging around the library, often lost in a book that she had made a mental note of earlier to read.
It was at the Angel Falls library where Paige met Natalie. She came up to Paige at the counter seeking help in finding some source material for a report about the various speeches of Abraham Lincoln which she was assigned. As soon as Paige looked at her, she felt her pussy start to tingle a little.
It wasn't so much because of her attractiveness, although Paige was drawn to Natalie's full, rounded figure, her smooth ebony skin, her raven-colored hair and her very pronounced breasts. Although she had an appreciation for the beauty of other women, this was the first time that Paige ever found herself sexually aroused by one.
But it wasn't so much about Natalie's physical attractiveness. Paige saw something in Natalie's eyes that instantly made her feel a connection of some sort. A feeling that manifested itself in a moistness welling up inside her pussy. At first Paige almost felt a bit of embarrassment about it, but Natalie seemed not to really notice.
As they tracked down the source materials Natalie needed for her report, they discovered many interests they had in common, and a friendship formed very quickly. They decided to have dinner together in the cafeteria in the lower level of the library building, spending a couple of hours just sitting there and getting to know each other.
Paige relayed how much she enjoyed working in the library, and how she planned to take courses in order to make being a librarian her profession. Natalie had a profound interest in politics, which was why she needed the materials on Lincoln's speeches, hoping to one day become a speechwriter herself. They discovered that they were both the only child in their families, although Natalie's mother ended up leaving her father when Natalie was around 10 years old, leaving her father to care for her on his own.
It was when Natalie talked about her father that Paige started to feel even more aroused. It was not so much what Natalie was saying about her father, but there was a slight, almost negligible change in Natalie's demeanor when the subject of her father came up. Paige couldn't quite put her finger on it, just a feeling she got while watching Natalie talk about him.
Natalie invited Paige over to her house to borrow some CD's that she had mentioned to her during their conversation. Natalie took the bus to the library, but Paige had her own car so she drove them both over to Natalie's house. Natalie and Paige walked in the back door into the kitchen, where Natalie's father was standing pouring a glass of milk. Natalie's father looked up at the clock before turning his gaze to Natalie.
“I'm sorry I'm so late getting home,” Natalie began to explain immediately. “I met Paige here at the library today and we got to talking while we had dinner at the cafeteria on campus. Paige, this is my father, Jeffry. Daddy, this is my new friend Paige. She works at the library.”
“Hello, Paige,” Natalie's father bellowed as he offered his hand.
“Hello, Mr. Logan,” Paige chirped as she reached up to shake his hand.
“Oh, you can call me Jeffry,” he said, trying to sound friendly, but there was a natural gruffness in his voice.
Paige smiled at him, noticing right away that he he had a staunchness about him, almost like a police officer. Paige also noticed that while Natalie had almost a milk chocolate type of complexion about her, Jeffry was darker, very much a strikingly handsome Jamaican man.
As Natalie was telling her father more about their dinner, as well as some other events that happened to her throughout the day, Paige felt a tension in the air, a tension that caused her pussy to start tingling with arousal, especially as she watched how Natalie looked at her father as they talked. In fact, she felt a wetness start to dampen her panties a bit whenever Natalie smiled at him. Natalie's father had a deep voice that almost vibrated inside Paige's body as he spoke, intensifying the excitement that was starting to build up in her.
“Well, let's go upstairs and grab those CD's I was telling you about,” Natalie said as she took Paige by the hand and led her out of the kitchen.
“It was very nice to meet you, Paige,” Jeffry bellowed out as they left.
“Very nice to meet you too, Mr. Logan,” Paige replied behind her.
“Jeffry!” he corrected, speaking loudly but not quite shouting.
Paige wondered if she could get used to the idea of calling Natalie's father by his first name as she followed Natalie up the steps and into her bedroom. It seemed like such an informal gesture for such a stoic man as he seemed to be. Perhaps after she got to know him a little better.
“Your father is a very handsome man,” Paige commented as Natalie handed her the CD's.
“Yes, he is,” Natalie responded, smiling warmly, which again caused Paige's pussy to flutter in response. “He's done such a wonderful job taking care of me after mom left, which is amazing considering I didn't make it easy for him sometimes.”
“Are you saying you were a problem child?” Paige asked, grinning at her teasingly.
“Not all the time,” Natalie answered with a slight laugh. “But I did go through a few 'rebel' stages now and then. And on top of that, being a single father raising a girl couldn't have been very easy for him. Especially when I started...developing, you know?”
“Your dad never found anybody else after your mom left?”
“He's had a couple of relationships since then, but neither ended up working out for one reason or another. I wasn't very nice to the first one, and the other one ended up wanting more kids, but my dad can't have any more. I guess I was a difficult pregnancy, so he decided to get a vasectomy to prevent another one. Then mom ends up leaving him, can you believe that shit?”
“That's the same thing with my parents... My mom had a difficult time with me, so my dad ended up getting a vasectomy for the same reason. Of course my mom is still around, though. I can't imagine the two of them not being together any more. From what I see of your father, your mom was absolutely nuts to leave a man like that!”
“That's not far from the truth, actually. She had a bad drinking problem. Still does, I guess, but she manages to keep it mostly under control whenever I'm around her.”
Paige took Natalie's hand and smiled, trying to be sympathetic and supportive. Natalie smiled back, placing her hand on Paige's shoulder and drawing her in to hug her.
“I'm so glad I met you,” Natalie said softly into Paige's ear.
“Oh, me too!” Paige responded enthusiastically. “I don't seem to come across too many people my own age that I connect with very well.”
“Me too!” Natalie responded, breaking their embrace. “The drama, the immaturity... Especially the guys! I can't remember the last time I actually had a conversation with a guy for more than thirty seconds without him staring down at my tits the whole time.”
“Well, they are very nice tits,” Paige responded, looking intently down at them.
Natalie gave her a fake look of disgust as she gently pushed her on the shoulder, both of them giggling and hugging once more.
“Say, why don't you come over to my house tomorrow night?” Paige offered. “You can meet my parents, we can hang out, you can even stay overnight if you want! I'm sure my parents won't mind.”
“Oh wow,” Natalie replied, leaning her head back. “Do you know how long it's been since I've had a sleepover with anyone?”
“Well, then we're both overdue for one, right?”
“Let me okay it with my dad, but I'm sure he won't object.”
“Great! I'll drive you home from school, you can pick up whatever you think you'll need, then we'll head over to my house!”
“Sounds like a plan,” Natalie said, both of them smiling gleefully as they exited Natalie's bedroom, hugging one more time before Paige walked out the back door to her car.
