When I woke the vibrator had slipped from my body and lay on the bed. After cleaning it and putting it away I contemplated what I would do for the day, Sunday. Usually it's the day I just relax and do things around the house but today I felt rejuvenated and wanted to do something different. I thought about calling Joe but he told me he would call me during the week about our upcoming date. Given his history I didn't want to come on too strong so I pushed the idea from my head. I want to give him time and space, but I also desired to be near him. The phone rang, making me jump from my thoughts.
"Hello."
"Hey Sue!"
"Hi Laura."
"Busy today?"
"No, just trying to decide what I want to do for the day."
"Great, I have plans for you!"
"And that is?"
"We're having a pool party."
"Now?"
"Of course, John bought some things for the grill and I tossed a few things together so come over for lunch, take a dip and relax with us please."
"Ok, that sounds cool. I'll be over in a while."
"Ok great, talk to you then. Bye."
I hung up and got ready for the pool party. I put my black bikini on under my shorts and top for easy accessibility. In the kitchen I found things for a nice tossed salad to take along. While I prepared it I thought of Joe and remembered promising him I would do some reading about BDSM. I was curious about the lifestyle before last night, but even more so since I saw how Laura acted with John. She looks so happy.
I left and arrived at John and Laura's to find a couple other cars there. Laura greeted me at the door with a warm hug.
"I'm glad you came Sue."
"Me too, it's a beautiful day for a pool party. I brought a salad to add to the table."
She took it from my hands and smiled, "Thanks, every little bit helps."
We walked into the kitchen and she went about getting a few other things ready. I started helping her. Two hands wrapped around my waist from behind. I jumped and turned. Joe stood there grinning.
"Oh hi Joe, Laura didn't tell me you were coming."
"Likewise, neither did John tell me you were coming."
"Hummm, imagine that."
"Yes, imagine that."
Laura scurried to the patio before I could say anything, but I heard her stifled giggle on the way. Joe helped me with the food then we walked to the patio. He looked wonderful in khaki shorts and a summer shirt. I couldn't help notice how muscular his legs were. I excused myself and went to help Laura. Joe lingered with John.
"Ahem."
Laura turned, "Yes?"
"You are a horrible little match maker."
"I am so." She laughed.
"I hope he doesn't feel like he has to hang around with me today."
"He isn't the type to do something like that."
"What do you mean?"
"If he doesn't feel like hangin' with you, he won't. He doesn't pretend; he is very straight forward."
"Ok good."
Laura excused herself and went back inside again. I talked with a few other people I knew and finally sat in one of the chaise loungers by the pool. Since others were already swimming I removed my top and shorts to soak up some sun in my bikini. Before long I was so relaxed I could have fallen asleep. That is when someone jumped into the pool and did an enormous cannon ball. The cool water hit my body. I jumped and looked toward the pool. Within seconds Joe surfaced and swam to the edge before me.
"Come on it, the water's great."
"I feel like I already came in."
"Suit yourself." He turned and swam away.
Another girl in the pool swam by him and they started. Before long they were both in the shallow end sitting on the steps together. I put on my sunglasses so he couldn't see my eyes and watched covertly for a while.
"Sue?"
I jumped, "Damn Laura, don't sneak up on me like that."
"I didn't."
"What did you want?"
"I wanted to tell you that we have some books about BDSM in the study if you want to borrow them."
"Ok, thanks I will keep that in mind."
She noticed my attention was distracted. "What are you looking at?"
"Nothing."
"You are so. You're watching Joe and Nancy. Oh my gosh, you're jealous!"
"I am not!"
She laughed as she walked away, "Whatever."
What was I doing? I heard Joe laugh at something this girl Nancy said earlier. His deep laugh make my skin prickle. I heard her squeal and turned to see her splashing him with water. He splashed her back and the battle ensued. She dove under the water to escape. He dove under and swam away. When she surfaced and couldn't find him she looked all around. Finally he surfaced at the other end and waved to her as he climbed the ladder to get out. My heart raced to see his bare chest immerge. The water glistened on his black skin. His shoulders were broad. His body was cut in a V because of his tapered waistline. Damn, he was so strong and handsome. I was caught up in watching him and didn't realize that he was walking directly toward me. When I finally realized I just closed my eyes under my sunglasses and pretended I didn't know he was there.
"Are you coming in, or am I taking you in?"
"Excuse me?"
"You heard me Sue."
"I think I'll just lay in the sun a while longer."
"Wrong answer."
Before I could say no, nope or nada he reached down and scooped me into his arms. I knew I didn't stand a chance in hell of fighting him so I took off my sunglasses and tossed them on the chair before he walked away with me. He carried me to the edge. We passed John at the grill, while he laughed at my misfortune.
"Would you like a fast initiation or a slow torturous one?"
"By all means, slow and torturous."
"Mmmm good, that's my girl."
He walked to the steps and started down them. In the shallow end his height held me above the water but the further he went the deeper it became. The cool water hit my ass, then my back. I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled myself up, trying to delay the inevitable, to no avail.
"Oh my God, this water is freezing!"
"It isn't bad after you're in it a while."
