-----------------------------
As she sat on the edge of the sun lounger, it was undeniable her heartbeat intensified with the thought of it. Susan couldn't believe what she was about to do. She stood still for a moment, frozen scared; feeling like her heart was lodged into her throat. Removing her bikini top on a crowded public beach was once so foreign, particularly for puritanical Americans. Yet here she was, contemplating doing just that.
She was always taught to be modest. She was a former small-town Catholic schoolgirl from a very conservative family. This would be the first time that she would ever expose herself willingly in public.
But surprisingly, something inside her was pushing her to overcome her fears and trepidation. She had admired women who were confident and accepting of their body. And strangely, she wanted to indulge in the thrill of exposing her tits to everyone on this beach - an inexplicable urge to have eyes focused on her body. What was happening to her? Was she actually glad that her husband pushed her into this enigma?
Feeling more than a little self-conscious, she reached behind her back and found the clasp of her bikini top. She felt her hands trembling as she unbuckled it slowly. The moment it was released, the straps over her shoulders came loose and dropped. Susan quickly put her arms across her chest and held the top in place for one last moment.
She looked up. Although some of the men on the beach discretely watched her out of the periphery of their eyes, a few outright stares confirmed her every movement was being scrutinized.
She attempted to hide her nervousness at exposing herself before the entire beach, but was failing miserably. With butterflies in her stomach and her nerves completely frazzled, she debated her next move.
Why did she agree to this? She was never an exhibitionist. And yet, why was she feeling tingles of excitement?
***********
Edward knew he was a very lucky man and he woke up every morning thankful for everything he had - a great job, a nice home, and a wonderful loving family. He had a gorgeous wife that he'd been married to for nearly 25 years, and his wife, Susan, was absolutely the best thing that had ever happened to him.
But after so many years of marriage, their once romantic relationship had lost much of its original luster. They had become almost too 'comfortable' in their relationship and had fallen out of sync with one another.
If you asked either of them if their relationship was good, they would both say "yes" in public and to each other. However, at least from Edward's point of view, that answer would be a lie. Despite their comfortable and loving appearance, there was a much deeper feeling that something was missing. Although sex was regular, it was fairly standard and far from exciting.
Edward felt Susan was taking their relationship for granted. She always had things to do when she got home from work or on weekends; chores, bills, kids stuff, or running errands. On the little downtime she had, she was always tired. She never wanted to leave the kids for a weekend, and the occasional night out with Edward was more routine than romantic; dinner, movie, then home. Their relationship had lost a lot of the passion it once had.
And going out with the guys simply exacerbated the dilemma. Edward's friends talked about sexy date nights and weekends away without kids that resulted in racy and erotic adventures with their wives. He felt he was missing something. He was sure Susan felt the same way, but still was accepting of this life.
Certainly the stress of two professional wage earners had taken its toll on their lives, resulting in less and less time for each other. The lust-less and mundane became more common in their relationship. They were stuck in a rut. They were in desperate need of adding some 'spice' to their relationship.
Yet neither Edward nor Susan felt comfortable talking about the subject. In fact Susan did not like to talk about sex at all -- a likely consequence of her upbringing, and Edward did not push her. The result was a wall that had them on opposite sides. And, the unfortunate reality was, with the passion in their relationship waning, Edward began to actually question the longevity of their marriage.
He decided he needed to step up to change things. He did his research, reading articles and books to try to better their relationship and save their marriage. He spoke to divorced people about why their marriages ended. Edward concluded too many people stray from their marriages, not for companionship, but to regain the excitement they once felt.
He did not want them to fall victim to that trap. But their relationship was in indeed in dire need of some excitement. Their marriage needed an injection of 'spice.'
***********
Susan and Edward were having dinner at one of the resort's restaurants after their third day of a five-day getaway at this tropical paradise. For the past several years Edward and Susan had been traveling to the Caribbean once a year to vacation with their children. They had wonderful stays each time. But this time, for the first time, they had planned a trip for just the two of them. No kids.
"You look really nice tonight, sweetheart!" Edward beamed proudly. He had noticed a huge change in his wife during this holiday. Maybe it was the sun, or being away from the kids for the first time in ages. Or maybe it was the frozen tropical drinks that Susan had been consuming liberally. Whatever it was, he noticed that his wife was more playful, more flirtatious, and overall more passionate and loving. The "sexiness" he once saw in his wife returned; and he loved it.
"Thank-you!" Susan smiled.
"It was so nice relaxing and unwinding on the beach today, wasn't it?" Edward asked just as the server brought dessert. He viewed this long-needed holiday as an opportunity not only to get away, relax, and have a nice time in a tropical paradise, but also to re-connect as a couple. And he was pleased that they were on the way to rediscovering the passion for each other.
"It sure was!"
Susan picked up her fork and started on the immense chocolate creation. There was no way she was going to be able to eat even half of this dessert.
"So...have fun looking at those topless women today?" Susan asked teasingly, and out of nowhere.
"What?
"Come on now! You don't think I saw you looking? You think you can hide behind those Wayfarers?" she asked smirking.
Edward did not answer. Of course it had not gone unnoticed that a few women were topless on the beach. But that was not unusual. They had been to this island several times in the past and there were always a few topless women on the beach. The resort was Spanish-owned and attracted clientele from Europe and South America where topless sunbathing was not unusual.
"So, did you?" Susan persisted.
"Ahhh...are we fighting? I mean, is this a trap? I'm not sure how to answer that."
"How about start with honesty!"
Edward paused; he knew one wrong word could ruin the night and perhaps this entire holiday. Truth was, he watched with admiration as a few women doffed their bikini tops and sunbathed topless. And he was jealous of the men who stood proudly next to their confident topless women.
And the reality was, for years Edward had a fantasy of seeing his wife sunbathing topless on a public beach. It really excited him. He suggested it, almost to the point of begging, a couple times in the past. He knew his wife was relatively shy, particularly as it related to her body. Consequently, he was always met with a curt, "No!"
But Edward's fantasy never waned and he persisted, with hope. He hoped his wife would get past her self-deprivation. He hoped that Susan would regain confidence. He hoped his wife would allow herself to be unmastered, free and uncontrolled by moral issues. And he hoped she would shed her inhibitions and re-awaken that sexy, adventurous woman she once was.
He thought this holiday offered the perfect opportunity. But now it appeared his hopes would once again be met with disappointment.
Instead of groveling he decided to take a different approach.
"Well, I admire their confidence."
"Yah, sure...your gawked with open mouth at their
confidence!
" Susan said mockingly.
"I'm serious! I admire women who are confident enough to pop their tops and not care what other people think. And a confident woman is a sexy woman!"
After a brief pause, Edward decided to go for broke while pulling himself out of whatever potential hole he had dug for himself. "You know, it would seriously turn me on to see you sunbathe topless - and whether you want to admit it or not, you do have a great body."
Susan gave Edward another one of those "yeah right!" kind of looks. This was not the first time he posed this suggestion. But this time, for reasons she did not quite understand, she did not outright dismiss it. And strangely, she felt a small thrill run through her from her husband's compliment and suggestion.
"Really, now. So let me get this straight, if your wife took off her top on the beach, you would think that was sexy?"
"Fuck ya!" Edward responded quickly and without thinking. Was she really thinking about this?
