*****
Leila was last into the bathroom, like she was every morning. She tossed back her curly black hair and rubbed the sleep out of her dark brown eyes.
Beth and Dani had left for class before she'd even got out of bed. She knew the university had teamed her with the other two girls in the hope that their good influence might rub off on her, but they had clearly underestimated Leila's capacity to do her own influencing.
She grinned as she recalled the night Dani had thrown up after a beer-drinking challenge. And that was nothing compared to the embarrassed look on Beth's face after her complaint about their enforced celibacy led to Leila pulling out her large, double-headed vibrator and treating her housemates to a very practical demonstration of how to use it.
"I didn't know people used those things any more!" gasped Beth. "I've seen pictures of them, but I didn't know anyone bothered with them these days, not since they started giving people the Operation."
Leila sighed.
"The Operation isn't the be-all-and-end-all," she explained. "Sure, it's great to be able to give yourself an orgasm just by thinking about it. But it's not the same as having a guy - or even a girl - touch you down there, or having someone inside you. Until you've experienced either of those things..."
Dani interrupted.
"It's messy, it's unhygienic and it gives you diseases. At least once you've had the Op, you can give yourself a daily climax and get rid of your urges without you or anyone else having to do anything unpleasant..."
"Unpleasant!" Leila threw back her head and roared with laughter. "What are you, some kind of delicate Victorian maiden? Why can't we have the best of both worlds? Sometimes, if I want to treat myself to a quickie, I'll take advantage of the nice, antiseptic Thinkgasm, the way we were shown when they did that whole brain-rewiring thing. OK, it was a novelty a couple of years ago, when I was sixteen, and I do enjoy it from time to time.
"But it's not the same. It's too... vanilla. You don't appreciate the difference until you've had the real thing, and this is as close to the real thing as we're going to get for now."
Just remembering the conversation was making her feel horny, and she wondered if she had time to go and fetch her vibrator and put it into action. She dismissed the thought. Just fifteen minutes to get showered and make it to the lecture hall. She'd have to put her desires on hold for now.
She heard footsteps on the stairs. She froze. The girls' student rooms were in a secure complex, but there had been break-ins recently and she didn't want to take a chance. If it was Beth or Dani, she knew they would have called out.
Then she recognized the footsteps and relaxed. Of course. She was running late and Pete started his rounds at nine, once the girls had left for school.
She heard him pause outside the door. She called out.
"Hey Pete, I'm late for school. You can clean the bathroom in five minutes. Why don't you make a start in the kitchen."
"Yes ma'am. I will do what you suggest."
She heard his footsteps retreat back downstairs.
