Angie was unable to speak for some time. Her whole body was trembling with the violence of her frustrated orgasm coupled with her reaffirmed disgust for her nervous companion. At last she felt she'd calmed down enough to speak.

"Well, I've seen some chicken-shit maneuvers in my time, but that had to take the cake," she growled through tight lips, her gaze directed unswervingly at the road ahead.

"What was I supposed to do… give them a Goddamn encore? They must really have got an eyeful as it was."

"So damn what? They don't know us. We don't know them. They were probably looking for a deserted spot to do the same thing. Everybody fucks, you know. There's nothing weird or freaky about it. Men have been sticking their fingers up women's cunts since Day One. I'm sure our strollers didn't learn anything new tonight."

Dave turned towards Angie and stared hard at her set profile for a moment, his thoughts a mixture of confusion and disgust.

"You haven't got any idea of shame, have you, Angie?" he asked in a voice that was hard and flat. "You'd probably fuck a rhinoceros in Safeway at high noon without blinking an eyelash, wouldn't you?"

He paused a moment, and when no response was forthcoming, he goaded her: "Well, wouldn't you?"

She turned towards him at last. "A rhinoceros would undoubtedly be more interesting company than you are. You're so cooped up in your narrow little life you haven't got the imagination to try to do something a little different now and then. It obviously scares the piss out of you. You are a chicken-shit little coward, that's all, Mr. Wagner." She smiled sadistically in his direction. "And if you've got the address of that rhinoceros, I'd appreciate it if you'd pass it on."

Neither spoke for a good ten minutes. As he drove, Dave's contempt for the highly sexed young blonde began to flower into a kind of perverse passion. Despite the fact that he wanted nothing to do with her after tonight, he was turned on by the idea of taking her home and fucking her ears off, then throwing her out when he was finished with her.
