Sam invited guests over for dinner.

I got another text message later in the afternoon and for a moment my heart raced with excitement thinking it was Emma wanting another booty call but the call display revealed it was my wife. I must admit I was a bit disappointed but nonetheless I was still happy to get a message from my wife to divert my attention from work, even for a minute.

Sam: Hi honey r u busy?

Me: I'll always make time for you! :)

Sam: Awwww

Me: What's up?

Sam: I inv Bill & Emma over 4 dnr 2nte

Me: Okay sure. Do you want me to pick something up on the way home?

Sam: No :)

Me: Okay.

Sam: ILU

Me: I love you too.

I knew Bill and Emma were coming over tonight to fulfill Sam's end of the arrangement but I did not expect my wife to have them over for dinner. I guess as the eternal romantic she wanted to set the mood before Bill and I start banging each other's wives.

I set off my phone down and concentrated on getting my work done in order to leave early to try to beat the traffic. I stared at the code on my screen, practically meditating so could block out any and all thoughts of getting laid.

"You're in a rush to get home?" Steve noted, popping above the cubicle partition.

"Yup," I mumbled as I submitted my code changes. "Dinner date with the missus."

"Have fun."

"Oh, I will..." I grinned all the way to the elevator.
