Becoming Paula

I said that, “I should be able to make it.” I have gone out with them drinking on Fridays before it was no big deal. It was a labor day weekend and we were closed on Monday and I didn’t want to be alone on the start of it.

Friday came and the day just flew and we were headed to the local watering hole.

Sharon said, “I took the bus Paul, I was wondering if I could ride with you?”

I told her, “I would be happy to give you a ride and glad for the company.”

When we got to the bar there were about ten people from our department there. I didn’t drink much seeing that I would be driving Sharon and myself home. After a couple of hours the crowd from work was dwindling down until it was just Sharon and I.

We left at 10:00 p.m. and I drove her home. I parked outside her place and she asked if I would walk her to her door, there had been some late night assaults in the area. When we got to her door, she invited me in for coffee. I thought that this was my lucky day, I had not thought of Sharon as a possible date, but my prospects were looking up. Inside she led me to her kitchen and started a pot of coffee.

Sharon said, “I will be right back, I need to visit the lady’s room.”

I sat at the breakfast bar and watched the pot perking. Then I heard feet coming back to me. I turned and there she was standing there with about seven other girls from work.

I could not but wonder what was going on. I honestly nearly wet my pants, behind Sharon were Barbra, Rachel, Ginny, Peggy, Donna, Marcy, and Carol. Sharon poured coffee for us. I was surrounded.

Ginny approached and said, “we thought about what you told us and we want you to understand we would never hurt you, you are such a sweet guy.”

Barbra came over to me and put a pill and a glass of water beside me. She looked into my eyes and said, “Paul, we want to have fun with you till Tuesday. If you are agreeable, we want you to take this pill, it is a sedative and you will be out for about six hours.
