Yet Another Crazy Idea

That night I sleep fitfully. I dream though I remember very little. My only fleeting snatches of remembrance all consist of being low down to the ground, on my hands and knees I believe, with Jane, her sister, and my friends all around me I a circle laughing...and laughing...and laughing. As I wake their cruel laughter still rings faintly in my ears.

My girl is still sound asleep when I finally abandon all hope of getting anymore shut eye. I slip quietly from the bed and sneak from the room. I rub my eyes then run a hand over my day old scruff. It was Saturday and I was very happy it was the weekend. The last thing I wanted was to have to get ready and head to work right now.

I clean up the remnants of our snacks from the night before then set about making a pot of coffee.

I am surprised to hear Jane up and stirring before the pot is even brewed. I pour her a cup of joe along with one for myself. I put cream and sugar in each and give them a stir. She soon comes out into the kitchen wearing one of my loose t shirts, a look she knew I loved. Her eyes blinked as they adjusted to the light, her brown hair was tousled, and she had that unmistakable pleased and relaxed look of a woman the morning after a night of wonderful toe curling sex. She positively glowed.

She sidles up next to me and leans her weight in. I embrace her. She kisses me and lays her head down on my chest with a soft happy sigh.

“Good morning.” She says.

“Good morning.” I reply. “I thought you'd sleep longer. You had a big night.”

“Yeah.” She sighs again. “But I told Emma I would have breakfast with her this weekend. I thought today was as good as tomorrow. Besides...” She titters. “...we have a lot to talk about.”

I could easily read between those mile wide lines. She meant her being with Billy without my foreknowledge, my reaction to it after work, her night with Micheal and then what she did with me once she got home. That's what they had to talk about.

I kiss her forehead. “That sounds nice. Say hi from me.”

“I will.” She gives me a hard hug then pulls away to take her coffee. Holding it in both hands she takes a grateful sip. “Mmmm.” She hums. “What are you up to today?”

I shrug. “Hang out with Dennis for a bit then...I don't know honestly. You want to hook back up this afternoon?”

Even through her morning haze I see a glimmer in those mischievous eyes of hers. Oh no!

“Dennis huh? Ummm...” She grins. “He he he.”

“What? What is it?”

“Remember how I joked it might be fun to, um, swing with Rachel and Dennis?” She had a guilty blush across her cheeks. “I teased you about doing it with Rachel. After three kids and being married to the big man it'd be like throwing a hot dog down a hallway.”

Bluntly put. Those weren't the words she had used but I did remember a brief comment about it. “Yeah, I remember.”

“Well, you might want to...bring it up.” She grins then states boldly. “We should swing with those two. A wife swap or a foursome or something.”

“Are you nuts!?” I exclaim. “Rachel is already pissed and suspicious as hell. You really think she'd be up for something like that? She's a mom and a happily married woman.”

“Not so happily married I am thinking. And what does being a mom have to do with it? She might surprise us.” She says. “Dennis says their love life is pretty dead. She might be willing to spice things up in order get some action or kickstart their sex life. Who knows.”

“Jane...” I groan.

“Just mention it. That's all I'm asking. Besides...” Her face goes serious for a moment. “...Rachel really ought to know about...her husband. I'm sure it would come out if we swung with them.”

“Babe, that's not our place. That's for Dennis to decide.”

“It's not fair to her. Rachel deserves to know.” She reaches out and strokes my arm. “Besides it would be fun. Just bring it up, that's all I ask. If Dennis doesn't want it then we won't do it, simple as.” She smiles mischievously. “Though I bet YOU could convince Big Daddy if anyone could.”

I grimace. “He doesn't like you calling him that.”

She giggles. “He can't stop me from thinking it. Mmmm, Big Daddy. Big BIG Daddy. He he he.”

I shake my head. “Jesus. You are off the charts lately!”

“He he he. Once one inhibition fell the next was easier and the next even easier.” She slurps her coffee and smacks her plump lips. “Look at us now. Uninhibited and having the times of our lives. I thought about it for so long before I asked you that question. I am so glad I did.” I knew exactly the question she referred to. The question that changed everything. She leans in and kisses me. “You've made me very happy.”

We share some coffee and chat about a few more mundane things before Jane heads back to the bedroom to get changed. I hear her talking to her sister on the phone and arranging the meet up. She is giggly and in good spirits, obviously excited to share all the juicy news with her closest confidante.

She didn't give me any indication that we might squeeze in a morning quickie so I just abandon the idea before I got my hopes up. She came out of the room looking fantastic in tight butt hugging jeans and nice pink collared shirt. She ends the call with Emma and slips her phone into her back pocket.

We embrace. Mmmm, she smelled good too. After an all too brief kiss and cuddle she is on her way to the door.

Slipping on her sunglasses she blows me a farewell kiss and is out the door.

Once more I find myself all alone in the house. Memories of the night before come flooding back but I quickly shake them from my thoughts and despite still being horny I resist the temptation to rub one out. Whether it was because I didn't really want to or because I didn't have permission I honestly couldn't say. Whatever the reason, I resist.

It was a beautiful Saturday. I wasn't going to wait around here alone with my thoughts again. I wasn't sure my sanity could take it. I had to get out and do something today.

I get on some jeans and a t shirt, throw on some shoes and my leather jacket, and soon I am in my car on my way to Dennis' house. I said I would call first but I was sure he wouldn't mind me just showing up. He was always very welcoming that way.

As I drive I turn over my girlfriend's bold request in my mind. A foursome with Dennis and Rachel? Assuming Rachel didn't completely lose her shit at the mere suggestion of it...it actually was a pretty exciting idea. Back in high school, before she got with Dennis, I had tried once to get with mousy little Rachel but was promptly rebuffed.. She wasn't the looker she once was, but she was no slouch in that way either. She had a lively spark about her that was quite alluring when it wasn't off putting. Also...it would give Dennis and I another...encounter together. In the same room anyways. That wasn't an unwelcome thought.

And hell, unlike last night, at least I'd be there for it.

Hmmm. Jane and I had nothing to lose. I had to put this in Dennis' court. He would be taking all of the risk and he knew his wife far better than we did. If I brought it up at all it would be in private.

Before long I am parking out front of Dennis' beautiful home. The midmorning light gave everything a warm bright glow and the air was still crisp and fresh from a cool night as I stride up to the door.

After a moment's pause I put on my best smile and rap on the front door.
