There was plenty to think about after last week’s visit with Joy plus Janet’s revelations yesterday.
I didn’t say anything to Janet but I had already sensed the beginnings of Joy's loosening up.
I need to keep my wits about me, look for and hope to understand any ‘buying signals’ (salesman speak!), just go with the flow, don't push it.
These are two very different Mts H's with different situations and needs and whilst I really fancied them both, my job and their business was far too important to risk just for a risky one off sex.
I rang the bell, the door opened and there stood Joy, smiling, wearing a pretty summer dress, not overly revealing, mainly bare arms and the hint of a cleavage previously unseen by me, and very nice legs for her age.
Wow, I said, you look really lovely Joy.
Do you like it, she said
Oh yes, it is wonderful to see you looking so much more happy.
I had a very long chat with a dear friend over the weekend and they told me in no uncertain terms that it was time for me to rejoin the real world because I am still young enough to have a life. You dont think it is too much do you?
Not at all Joy, it is very tasteful, and dare I say it, very attractive too, your friend is right, it is time.
She sort of blushed and turned away saying, go through to the conservatory, it's nice out there, I’ll bring the coffee.
As I went through I saw the abstract painting, still cant see the hidden aspect, Bonnie and Clyde were still admiring each others beautiful assets, and the glass penis had moved itself to the front of the glass cabinet!
Entering the conservatory via the open sliding doors, I was in new territory, it all looked perfectly normal, but I could not feel a bit disappointed there were no overt sexual symbols!
Then I spotted the two large glazed planters, one each side of the doors. Two life sized rear ends, naturally shaped, with small succulent plants inside. I smiled, feeling relieved that the theme was continuing!
I sat down at the Bistro style table and chairs looking around at the well tended garden and the pool area leading off from one side of the conservatory.
Joy arrived with the coffee and we sat and chatted, mainly business at first, then more generally. I said that I loved the cheeky planters.
Joy chuckled, there is more to them than meets the eye, she said, I might show you one day, but not today! So I said, now you really have really fired up my imagination.
Let me show you our pool, she said, we are very proud of our pool, it was designed by us and we love it.
I saw the hint of a tear, so I touched her arm and said, come on then Joy, I would love to see your pool.
We went through the glass door, it was not a huge pool but I certainly was not small. Shallow steps for easy access, the sign said 4’ depth, large open shower in one corner, a bench and coat hooks above with bath robes. Simple but very practical, and I said so.
I have it regularly serviced, she said, and the heater is on, I do use it occasionally, but it's not the same alone.
It does look very inviting, I said.
Shall we? She asked, do you fancy a quick dip?
Once again with Joy it felt more like an order than an ask, or was that my over active imagination?
I’ve got several swim suits and trunks, she added, unused for ages, from our party days.
I have an appointment later this morning, I said, and I need to be on time and looking my best.
Who with, can I ask, she said.
JRB, I said, Mr Butcher, its not been easy getting that but Janet helped.
Julian? She asked, I know Julian well, he and Rachel used to come to our parties years ago. Can I come with you, she said, it’s high time I got back in the saddle, I am so out of touch.
Yes please, I said, I would appreciate anything that helps our cause and this might be a struggle without your personal connection.
We returned to the conservatory and she handed me two trunks, one lightweight Speedo type and one baggier boxer type. I chose the Speedos, well why not! If you’ve got it, flaunt it!
We don't have changing rooms, Joy said, never needed them before, if you change here I will change indoors, and she disappeared back into the lounge.
I quickly stripped off and pulled on the Speedos.
They were a bit tight and left little to the imagination which did nothing to diminish my stirrings, so I quickly went down the steps into the pool which of course struck cold as I entered but once in was quite warm. At least it was a disguise!
Joy came back wearing a one piece costume that covered where it needed to cover but still left a lot of exposed flesh.
I admired her body as she entered the pool and thought that a respectful complement was called for. She smiled and said nothing, perhaps it embarrassed her to think that I found her so attractive?
I’ve never been an athletic figure and was certainly no Hercules, but Joy seemed to look approvingly at me?
We set off to swim a few short lengths before returning to the steps for a sit down, chest deep.
Once again I thought I saw tear in her eye and I said, I’m sorry Joy is this too much too soon?
Not at all she said, I need to lay some ghosts, those were John’s Speedos, and it brings back memories.
Looking to break the spell I jokingly said, shall I take them off then?
Seriously? She said, would you do that?
It was meant as a mood lightener, I said, but if I have your blessing I would.
It went quiet for a while and Joy finally said, I want nothing more, at this stage at least, but yes you do have my blessing.
If you are sure, I said, once the genie is out of the lamp I cant put it back in?
What happens in this house stays in this house, she said, do you understand that.
Yes of course, I said, I don't want to risk my job or your business or our friendship.
Just two friends in a pool together, she said, nothing more.
Exactly, I said, nothing more.
She nodded, so I stood up and slowly dropped my Speedos, handing them to her as I stood there naked facing her. The water was warm and clear and I had forgotten how good it feels to be skinny dipping as once again I felt the stirring down below.
II am surte Joy noticed too, so I pushed off and did two lengths backstroke, returning to the steps and sitting alongside her, no contact, but my semi arousal was hard to miss.
I do apologise, I said.
Don’t apologise, she said, I am so flattered to see it at my age, shall we get dried off, she added. |
