Author's note:
This story took on a life of it's own. It began life with a set plan, but what can you do? When I realised that the tone needed to change, I saw a diversion and ran with it. There is therefore guaranteed to be a chapter 5 :)
Please read the previous chapters if you haven't already, so that you know what's going on.
==================
Chapter 4: Intermission
I stayed that night, sleeping curled around Clay in a guest bed. When I awoke before he did, I teased him erect with the most delicate touches I could, then carefully rolled a condom on and slid down around him as he began to turn and mutter in his sleep, clenching him hard as he woke with a surprised exclamation, sealing his mouth with mine as he leapt to the right conclusion and began to enthusiastically respond.
When I had ridden him to mutual orgasm and then kissed him good morning properly, I went to make us coffee, staying defiantly naked but not running into anyone else.
We had just about finished that pot before Catherine, hearing our voices, gave a polite knock about a third of a second before pushing the door open.
I was sitting up in bed with the sheet covering me no higher than my waist, and I didn't bother to try and cover up.
She sauntered in, wearing a robe tied so loosely that she was almost revealing more than me, dropped onto the bed next to Clay and patted his leg, right up near his groin. I was slightly surprised to realise that I wasn't in the slightest bit jealous.
"Sleep well?" she asked us both, turned side-on so that I was pretty sure I could see a shadow of nipple inside her robe.
"We did, yes," Clay replied, reaching out with one finger to pull her robe open slightly more for a better look.
She raised her eyebrow at him and said "If I'm not very much mistaken, you've already had quite enough of that this morning." She didn't make any move to stop him, however, and he didn't stop looking. "How do you want your - and don't even think of saying it - eggs?"
"Runny and on toast," I said with the straightest face I could muster. They keep chooks, and I wasn't prepared to jeopardise my chances at anything that Catherine made with their eggs.
"Good, I was planning on doing poached. More coffee?"
She didn't bother waiting on an answer - from either of us - but simply grabbed the pot and headed for the door, saying over her shoulder "James has to run Suzanne to the airport in an hour, so breakfast will be ASAP."
We borrowed towels and showered together, and made the kitchen in time to get breakfast while it was being served.
Suzanne waved cheerily at us with a mouthful of toast, dressed in her travelling clothes - slightly warm for even mid-morning, but ready for the cold back home.
James, already dressed for the drive to the airport, waggled a knife in greeting as he industriously buttered toast, and Catherine was swaying around the kitchen in the same gown, looking like a porn actress waiting for her call.
In last night's clothes, I felt distinctly over-dressed, and attempted to divert this feeling by focusing on someone else.
"Not leaving the house today, darling?" I asked Catherine as she paused in her voyage around the kitchen to reach over my shoulder and put one hand down my blouse and coffee into my cup.
"Not if I can help it!" she replied as she drew her palm over my nipple and moved onto Clay, who craned his neck to peer inside her robe, an expression of mildly distracted interest on his face, as she filled his cup.
I sat there as a plate of perfectly poached eggs on toast appeared in front of me, drinking strong plunger coffee, feeling surrounded by domesticity disrupted only by Catherine oozing predatory sexuality, and could not believe how far I had come - from blushing furiously at the very mention of a swinger party, to, well... I looked at Suzanne, busily using a scrap of toast to mop up the last of her egg, and toyed with the idea of throwing her on the table and straddling her mouth.
I felt a warm, sexy, alive rush at the thought and had to return my attention to my coffee again, feeling like the cat that had discovered how to open the fridge and pour its own cream.
"Penny for your thoughts," Clay said and I looked up, startled, to find everybody grinning at me.
With a flush of embarrassment, I suddenly remembered that they had all gathered for my benefit, and that the spotlight was firmly on me.
I opened my mouth, then shut it again. There was no way I was going to admit to what my thoughts had actually been, but I couldn't immediately think of anything to replace them with.
I opened my mouth again, shut it again, blushed suddenly, giggled self-consciously and blurted out "Fuck, I love you guys!"
James just grinned wider at me, Suzanne cheered and Catherine applauded.
All of which just made me blush harder, of course.
Clay and I were finishing breakfast when Suzanne rushed off to the bathroom to clean her teeth, and James portaged her luggage out to their old Peugeot.
I was draining my fourth cup of coffee when she returned. We exchanged email addresses and promised to keep in touch, she gave us each a throat-clearing kiss, and then was gone.
We stood in the driveway to wave them off, Catherine with the wind tugging at her gown in perfect fashion to scandalise the neighbours, and she said "I hope she doesn't take too much out of him when she goes down on him in the car-park. I'm going to be horny when he gets back."
It took me a few seconds to process that, but Clay simply made a show of staring at the watch he didn't have on and saying "I may be able to help, there, I'm not due back home until tomorrow night."
Catherine turned around, pressed him against the door, and slid her tongue down her throat until she could tongue his balls. I pressed myself against her from behind, and pulled her gown apart. Neighbours be damned.
She pulled back from Clay, twisted her head back around over her shoulder, and said "Honey, are up to being a toy?"
My face must have mirrored what that question did to me, because they both started grinning at me.
Catherine slipped out from between us, breasts hanging out of her robe, and moved around behind me as Clay casually pushed himself upright. I felt like I was being circled by sharks.
With one hand each on my back, they lead me, compliant, towards the master bedroom.
I had never actually been in Catherine's bedroom before. That fact dwelt in my mind as they lead me though the door. I'm not sure why.
They put me in the middle of the floor, in front of the bed, and ordered me not to move. Catherine, the edges of her robe caught on her nipples, stood in front of me and slowly untied the sash, letting it fall open and leave her fully nude as she looked me up and down with a calculating air that made me simultaneously shiver with trepidation and go weak at the knees with expectation.
Clay reached around me from behind and started unbuttoning my shirt. I had the sudden, mad thought that at least my agonising over dressing last night wasn't going to be wasted.
He tugged the shirt off my shoulders, quickly dealt off my bra and left me naked from the waist up, still standing meekly and almost hypnotised in front of Catherine's completely dominant eyes.
I almost didn't notice my leather skirt being unzipped and slipped down to my feet, as Catherine dropped her robe and, entirely naked, closed the distance between us with a single step, grabbed my breasts in her hands and began kissing me so assertively that I was powerless to do anything except stand there and whimper into her mouth as she kneaded my breasts like bread dough.
I dimly heard Clay say "I think we should leave the stockings," and Catherine stepped back, releasing my breasts, which felt a rush of blood which nearly made me stagger.
She took in the stockings attached to the panties I had converted into crotchless, and said. "I agree. Get rid of that skirt, slut!"
The totally dominant, dismissive way in which she said that, one of my most hated words, made me moan and bite my lip as my pussy spasmed and began to leak down my inside thigh.
