Suzie was blown away when I relayed to her what Bob had told me after our golf game. She was already in shock after Bob's wife Julie confided to her about their being into bondage. But now to learn that they were into the BDSM thing was a lot for both of us to digest. I told Suzie that Bob suggested we go to their place for dinner and we could all discuss it.
"Sounds almost like they both want to share all of their secrets with us," Suzie said.
"Yeh, it does. Are we really into hearing all of the gory details about their sex life?"
"Oh, you bet I am," Suzie answered. "I didn't tell you, but when you and Bob were playing golf, just thinking about the little bit that Julie had told me about her being tied up while they made love got me all wet."
"Does that mean you might jump my bones tonight? Better watch out. This might unleash a monster in you. We better be careful."
"Oh, don't be silly, Tom. When I have lunch with Julie this Wednesday I'll set up a dinner date. As for tonight, yeh, your bones will be all squished!"
"Don't know what I'm looking forward to more. Tonight or dinner with Bob and Julie."
When I got home from work Wednesday, as was usual on Wednesdays, Suzie had supper almost ready. It was nice that she had one afternoon off every week. I didn't have that luxury, being employed at a Monday through Friday, 40 hour week job by the local insurance brokerage firm. At least it was close to home.
During dinner I brought up the subject of Suzie's lunch with Julie. "How'd it go, Hon? Did you set a dinner date? More importantly, did you discuss Bob and Julie's sex life?"
"Yes and no. Yes, we have a date for dinner at their house this Saturday at 7:00 O'clock. No, we didn't discuss their sex life. Well, not really, Sort of, a little. She told me how glad she and Bob were to be sharing all this with us. She repeated how much the lifestyle has added to their lives. Reading between the lines, I think she might be hinting that we might someday share their lifestyle with them."
"You think?" I replied. "Wow, that'd be something. That's taking a big leap right now."
"I know," Suzie said. "Don't say anything to them about that. I might be completely wrong. Let's just see how it goes."
"Right."
Saturday rolled around, and with much apprehension on Suzie's and my part, we headed for Bob an d Julie's house. We arrived a few minutes after 7:00 and, with a bottle of red under my arm, we walked up to their front porch.
"Here goes," Suzie said, as she punched the doorbell.
"Right on time, guys!" was the greeting from Bob as he opened the front door and ushered us in. Julie scurried in behind him and gave each of us a big hug and kiss. Bob, a little less demonstrative than his wife, endowed me with a pat on the shoulder and Suzie with a peck on the cheek.
"Come on in," Julie chimed in. "Let's go in the family room. I've got some snacks in there. Bob, go get the drinks. Dinner won't be ready for about a half hour."
Bob left for the kitchen and we made small talk with Julie until he returned with martinis for all...his specialty of the house. They're not my favorite, but "When in Rome..."
Julie broke the ice about
the elephant in the room
. ""Well. Seems like we have some stuff to discuss with you two. Now that I opened up to you, Suzie, about what Bob and I have been up to for the last few years...before we even met you, actually. We both find it very exciting. A big part of our relationship now. Ten years ago I never would have believed that I would be begging any man to tie me up and abuse me. Now it's the best part of my relationship with Bob."
"How do you feel about it, Bob," I asked.
"I feel the same way. I wouldn't want to do without our so called
scenes
now. At first it bothered me. Like I told you Saturday, Tom, I wasn't brought up to smack a woman around. But, believe it or not, Julie seems to like it. At least she tells me she does."
"I do," Julie replied. "I get such a rush from it. Depending on what Bob's doing to me it hurts for a while...sometimes hurts bad...but usually it turns into a good hurt, a sensual feeling, and if I'm lucky, an incredible orgasm...or three... or five. I can't describe it."
She stood up, saying, "Have to check on dinner. It should be ready soon."
"Bob," I asked, "Julie told Suzie you started all this about six years ago. Weren't your kids still living at home?"
"Yes they were. It sure limited what we were able to do. Couldn't set up the playroom like it is now. So our hands were tied, so to speak...no pun intended. But as soon as the last one went on to college we went to town."
While Julie was still in the kitchen, I quietly asked Bob, "Is it true? I mean what Julie just said about having many orgasms when you do that? Or is she exaggerating for our benefit?"
"No. That's pretty much what happens. Sometimes it seems that the more pain I inflict on her the stronger her orgasms. And the more of them. It seems incongruous but it happens."
"Incredible," Suzie said. "Tom, if you ever hurt me like that I'd leave you in a minute."
"And I wouldn't blame you."
"Dinner's ready," came the call from the kitchen. Bob led the way to the dining room where the table was nicely set, with fresh flowers and a bottle of Pinot Noir which had been opened an hour before to "breathe."
We knew from previous visits that Julie was an excellent cook. She had prepared chicken cacciatore for us with various sides. The topic of conversation during dinner veered away from the pre-dinner talk. Sex was set aside for a while at least. After some wine on top of the martinis we all loosened up a bit and sex found its way back into our thoughts.
Bob asked, "So you guys have never experimented with anything like Julie and I are into?"
I answered, "No. I don't think anything like that ever entered our minds. Maybe we're too new into our marriage to have thought of going 'outside the box' like that. I think we're both pretty satisfied right now. Right, Hon?"
