The time inbetween

After the showers the tension seemed to have broken and they sat in the kitchen eating takeaway pizza and talked freely about what had happened, how the date went and the way Sarah had been afterwards. They were both up beat and excited as they rode a strange euphoria.

"Hang on," said Tom suddenly "I never got to see you in the lingerie."

Sarah looked at him with a smirk and took a bite of pizza "I know," she said through a mouthful "I was totally aware of that but I was feeling a little cruel and I thought I'd deny you until..." she tailed off, blushing.

"Until what?"

Sarah tucked her hair behind her ear nervously and looked shy as she said "Until I let him see it first." She looked up at him but still had her head down. She thought she knew what to expect but was still nervous about upsetting him.

Tom looked stunned for a moment then said with a big sigh "Holy fuck that's hot." Sarah visibly relaxed at his reaction "Where are you getting these ideas?" Tom asked.

"From you silly. You gave me all that reading material and I may have done some additional reading after that."

"How did I get such a sexy wife?"

"It's that low self esteem that put us in this situation" she said pointing at him with a slice of pizza.

Sarah called off any more sex that night after she guiltily confessed to having gone a bit wild in the shower and the **** leaving her system making her feel sleepy.

The next night they were in bed together having just had some pleasant vanilla sex. Tom had to guiltily confess that if he hadn't cum three times the day before he would have put on a pretty poor showing being, as he was, still thinking about the date and the kiss. Sarah had had a perfectly enjoyable time and it had been nice to reconnect as a couple after what had transpired but she was not in the mood to deal with delicate male ego and was not taking the bait to reassure him. She had enjoyed it and she had had a little orgasm but nothing brain melting. It was more of a feeling connected thing for her but he was clearly emotionally tender.

She was looking at her phone when a message popped up from Jim. It wasn't the first. As you would expect he messaged her shortly after the date to say what a lovely time he had had and she had messaged him back in kind. She hadn't bothered to tell Tom about it as there was nothing to report and he would only end up getting excited again. This was the first contact Jim had made since then It just said 'hey there beautiful'. Sarah felt a flutter of excitement. After that kiss there could be no doubt in Jim's mind that she was interested in him so why not be so familiar with her. She replied with a 'Hey there yourself'

I was wondering when I would get to see you again? <<<

Of course he was, so was she but only because it seemed inevitable. She had shown him that she was interested and Tom would be begging for her to see him but if she did then it would probably end up in sex. That was a big step for her. The playful date and the teasing of Tom were really exciting and even the kiss had been fun and felt like enough of a betrayal to be incredibly sexy for them but at the end of the day that was no more than actors across the world do almost daily with people they aren't in relationships with. Another date would go somewhere because they weren't teenagers dating for the first time. He knew she was married and the only reason to have an affair was sex, or some romantic void that needed filling but that was usually resulted in sex.

There was also the fact that she kind of wanted it. Sex with others was always on the table when Tom confessed to her. Her worries about it had been eroded away but sex still felt like a big step and the fact that she could totally see herself in bed with Jim was worrying her. She knew that she could turn to Tom right now and say 'I'm going on a date with Jim again. We'll probably have sex this time' and it would shock him but it was what he wanted. She couldn't shake the unease, after having been a faithful wife for so long, that wanting to have sex with another man gave her.

She knew she had to speak to Tom about it "Tom?"

Tom didn't look up from his phone but responded with a "Mm hmm"

"Jim's messaged me, he wants to meet up."

That got his attention "What, really?" He sounded like a kid who was just told they could have pizza for tea "What does he say?" Sarah read the messages out to him "So are you going to do it?"

Sarah looked unsure "Do you want me to?"

Tom looked nervous now "Sure, but only if you want to."

"Even if it means I have sex with him?"

Tom stumbled through his words, her reticence making him cautious "I mean, yea, I wanted you to cheat on me and that includes, sex but I don't want to pressure you. If you aren't happy with it then you should call it off. If you want to have sex with him, you should."

"It's not that I don't want to, it's just a big step that's all."

Tom thought for a moment before speaking again "Don't jump in if you aren't sure. Fob him off for a bit or make a date far enough in advance that you have time to change your mind."

Sarah shuffled over to him and put her head on his chest. He wrapped his arm around her and they stayed like that for a moment. Sarah decided that it was best to be honest and now he was holding her and she wasn't looking at him it made it easier. "The thing is babe, he is really quite handsome and charming and under other circumstances I could totally have seen myself inviting him in. I feel guilty that I want to have sex with him."

"Please don't feel guilty. I've told you I want you to but more than that I want you to desire other men. I want your desires to be more than I can handle. Don't feel guilty. I only ask that you come back to me."

She sat up and looked at him "Oh, baby, of course I will. I love you."

"I love you to"

They kissed a heartfelt kiss. The kind of kiss that separated lovers make upon reuniting. They looked at each other for a moment and touched each others faces before Tom held out his arm and Sarah returned to their cuddle. She pulled out her phone and brought up the messages and began to type knowing full well that Tom could see her screen.

>>> Yes, we should meet up again soon

She could feel Tom shift underneath her but he didn't say anything as they both waited for the reply. They didn't wait long.

Brilliant, I hoped you'd say that. Please say you can be free next Saturday <<<

She didn't have a shift and there was nothing planned for that weekend.

>>> I can be free

Amazing, I have a charity fundraiser to attend and I hoped you'd be able to accompany me. I could send a car to pick you up at 7. <<<

>>> Sounds great. What's the dress code?

Formal so black tie for me and a formal dress for you <<<

>>> Ooh, I'll have to go shopping.

I'll tell you what, send me your measurements and I'll have something sent over <<<

Tom was positively crawling underneath her now so she reached an exploratory hand down and found a painfully stiff erection which she gave a playful squeeze before going back to typing.

>>> If you're sure, I'm happy to get my own. I wouldn't want you spending loads on me.

"Yes you would" said Tom above her

"Well I wouldn't really mind. Besides I bet you quite enjoy the idea of another man dressing me to his tastes."

"God, I should never have given you those stories to read."

"You should be thankful you did"

It would be a privilege but I can't promise about not spending loads. I just won't tell you how much it costs. <<<

>>> I can accept that, if you insist

I insist <<<

>>> I guess I'll just have to get used to it

I can't wait to see how ravishing you look Saturday <<<

>>> I'm sure you'll be quite the dashing figure in your dinner suit too

We'll make quite the couple. Send me those measurements and I'll organise the dress. Speak soon beautiful. <<<

She sent the necessary details and said goodbye before reaching down to grip Tom's cock again. She looked up at him and said "Saturday baby. I'm going to fuck another man for you on Saturday. Fuck your wife while you can still say she's always been faithful to you."
