"So Babe, I was thinking. How would you feel about trying out a club?" Sam nonchalantly asked over breakfast. He brought it up like he wanted to check out a new restaurant.
Libby spit up her coffee. It's not what she expected to talk about at this hour, right before they were leaving each other for the day.
"Um? Say whaaat?" she asked half-heartedly laughing. He was kidding, right? But the look on his face? He didn't break his composure.
She knew what he was implying, but she had to hear it from his lips. They had talked about it a handful of times during sex, but nothing ever came of it. And when they did talk about it fully clothed, they'd gotten into an argument, usually because of Libby.
She couldn't stand the thought of Sam with another woman. She was madly in love with the man. He picked her and since then, she was terrified he would wake up and realize she wasn't the right one for him and he would choose another more sophisticated woman, preferably with larger breasts and one who wasn't afraid to add more spice into their life.
"What do you mean? Like a night club that plays music or...?"
"Well,I was thinking more along the lines of a club with a little more action."
This had Libby's attention peaked. He most certainly wasn't talking about a night club where you sit and listen to Jazz.
"Are you thinking what I'm thinking?"
"I don't know. What are you thinking?"
She let out a snicker. "Are you serious?"
"Hmm...mmmm," he said swallowing the last bit of coffee.
Libby cocked an eyebrow at him.
"You don't have to commit to anything right now, but I would like you to give this some careful thought and consideration. You might just like it.
She could only nod in response.
"Libby, you know I only love you. I'm not going anywhere, alright? Just think about it, okay? No pressure.
"Okay," she tried to say brightly.
He really wasn't trying to make her angry, so she let the feeling subside.
"Well, on that note, I gotta run or I'm going to be late. We can talk more about it tonight, okay?" He gave her a quick peck on the cheek and was off.
Eventually the initial shock of what he proposed eased, as she lost herself in her work, but on her drive home she soon found her mind wandering back to her initial emotions of jealousy and that all too familiar residual spark of anger.
Worry set in as she pulled into the driveway. Creeping into her thoughts, she came to the conclusion he was looking for another woman to satisfy his deepest desires, the ones he wouldn't ever mention in her presence.
Then again, she was probably working herself up about the wrong things. She was notorious for that. A drama queen no doubt and usually thinking about what could go wrong rather than what the possibilities were if everything turned out better than okay.
It wasn't like she was the least bit ugly, but he joked she was more on the vanilla side when it came to sex. Was that such a bad thing?
Sure, they had sex every night, but was it exciting? They had a lot of fun in the bedroom, but it wasn't adventurous in the real sense of the word.
He was right, she preferred the more traditional sex positions and when it came to blow jobs, she never tried to take in his whole girth until she gagged. She wasn't that type of girl.
Not to mention, she shied away from sex toys and they never watched porn together. She knew he did, but they didn't talk about it because she didn't have the guts to ask. On occasion she wondered what his possible tags would be, but that made her jealous too. Why couldn't he cum with just her in mind?
She was a good girl in every sense of the word. They attended church every Sunday, went out with her girlfriend's on occasion, but never got too drunk. She never dared herself to be the naughty kind. She grew up in a conservative household, so this thing he was suggesting was so far out of her comfort zone. She blushed when she thought about it, but at the same time it made her heart beat faster.
They'd been married for three years. Neither one of them were guilty of cheating. They were fiercely loyal to one another, so what did she have to worry about? Absolutely nothing she told herself. Their love was stronger than some random sexcapade at a club.
She stifled the remainder of what-ifs and decided, just maybe it wouldn't be such a terrible idea to expand their sexual experiences outside of the bedroom. She was done being a prude. She wasn't going to let her fears get the best of her.
That evening they talked through the pros and cons. Armed with an extra dose of Sam's reassurances, Libby felt she was ready to face this unchartered territory.
