Colin talks to Chloe

“How was your day?” Chloe asked when Colin got home.

Colin wasn’t sure how to respond to that question. The session with Maud had been challenging. He’d seen a video that showed that Chloe had fucked Antoine again. To be fair she’d warned him she wanted to, but the line to camera in the video Maud had shown him had seemed calculated, like when she had video called him the first time. He didn’t know if she knew about his visit to Maud already, but it seemed likely. It all felt very out of control.

“Just the same as usual. Busy at work. Too much to do. Traffic a nightmare,” he bluffed.

“Do you need a back rub or for me to make you a cocktail?” Chloe asked. “Something to help you unwind. Why don’t you go and get changed and I’ll have something ready for when you get back?”

Colin didn’t know how to respond. “Sure,” he said. “I’ll be down in a few minutes. I’ll grab a quick shower as well.”

“You need me to scrub your back?” asked Chloe. “Or anything else that needs scrubbed.”

Better not thought Colin. I don’t want to have to explain the dried on cum. “I’ll be fine,” he said scurrying out of the living room.

When Colin returned to the living room Chloe had made them both drinks.

“I made us gin and tonics. It’s not really a cocktail, but it’s refreshing at the end of a long day,” she said.

They clinked glasses and both took a sip.

“So did you decide whether to talk to the Agency yet?” Chloe asked.

So that’s what this is about Colin thought. She wants to know what’s going on.

“I’m still getting my head around it all,” he said avoiding answering the question directly. “The idea I might be turned by knowing you’ve been fucked by someone else or seeing it happen, still seems pretty freaky to me.”

“You know I’ll always love you and come home to you,” said Chloe. “It’s just some things would be different. Though if you didn’t want me to do things like that I could probably agree not to. What would you like me to do?”

Colin couldn’t answer that. He wanted to agree to it and to forbid it at the same time. “But what would that make my role?” he asked.

Chloe paused. “I think that’s what talking to the Agency could help you with. Maybe we should go together as a couple. Would that make it easier?”

“Possibly,” he said. He decided to be brave. “I did have an introductory chat with them. Nothing too formal, but just to get an idea of how they would approach it.”

“Did that help?” Chloe asked. “Were they able to put you at your ease?”

“Mostly, but it still seems a very big step to open this up. It feels like it’s out of my control,” said Colin.

“Do you want to be in control,” asked Chloe.

“I feel like I should want to be in control,” he said. He remembered how Maud had explained how what we thought we should want often got in the way of what we really did want. “But I don’t know anymore.”

“If I told you that you don’t need to be in control anymore might that help you or make it easier for you?” Chloe asked. She was speaking quietly to him with a reassuring voice, try to help him puzzle it out.

“Perhaps,” said Colin. “But just as a test to see how it would work.”

“I think we’d need some external help,” said Chloe. “Someone to talk us through it all. What do you think?”

“Ok. But I need to tell you more about my day first,” said Colin.

He told her about the visit to Maud and the tests she had done. The only things he left out were a mention of the video he’d seen of Chloe and Antoine and how Jane had finished him off at the end of the session.

“So,” he continued. “I understand some of it, but I don’t know what to do with that understanding yet.”

“Well done,” said Chloe. “That must have been very hard for you to do and just as hard to tell me about. I think we’re making progress.”
