Dollar Dance with the new bride

After a suitable break, the band returned and folks started dancing again. They began a dollar dance and I jumped in line to have some time with Michelle. I approached Michelle when it was my turn to dance. She smiled as we twirled about on the dance floor.

“So, how are you holding up?” I asked.

“Not too bad. I’ve been laying off the champagne. I don’t want to be blind drunk tonight for Matt. It looks like he’s doing the same.” Her body felt good in my hands as we danced.

“How do you feel about this afternoon?” I asked, a little warily.

“Mmm, I feel great. My mindset seems to be where I hoped it would be. No jealousy and no guilt. I can’t wait to get him alone tonight to jump his bones. So, my therapeutic lover, it seems that the prescription worked. The only problem now is that I also want to jump your bones.” She gave me a sly grin.

I boggled. I also didn’t know what to say. Michelle rescued me as we twirled around the floor.

“By the look on your face, that worries you. Don’t worry. It’s just our little secret, and we can never act on it... Unless, I can convince Matt to give it a try sometime down the road, You never know.” She giggled and hugged me tight in the dance. She thankfully changed the subject. “It looks like you’re very popular. I noticed both Liz and Dani talking animatedly with you.”

“We were just discussing the wedding and how lovely everyone looked.” I gave her smile and a wink

“Oh, I bet. So, which one are you going to bed with tonight?” There was that sly grin again. She was having fun playing with me. This is the girl I remembered from high school.

I decided that to properly play along, telling her the truth was the best. Besides, she wouldn’t know whether to believe it or not.

“I thought I’d start with your sister. When she has fallen asleep from sexual exhaustion, I thought I’d go visit Liz.”

It was Michelle’s turn to be surprised. A shocked look crossed her face for a half-second before she chuckled and smiled. “Hmm," Michelle mused. "I bet if you played your cards just right, you might be able to have your cake and eat it too; if you know what I mean?" This time she smirked and winked.

I was thrown for a loop. Did she mean what I think she meant? Was she insinuating that I could have them both at the same time? My head was reeling, and not from the champagne. My dance with Michelle was interrupted by one of the male guests, waiting his turn. I wanted clarification from Michelle, but it was apparent that I wasn't going to get it. How could I find out?
