BAD TIMING
Her name was Julia. She was 28, blonde, 112 pounds, and very sexy. She was sitting naked on the foot of their bed, with her legs slightly open, waiting for her husband to get home from work, intending to give a him a very pleasant surprise. She leaned back casually against her arms that braced her from just behind her on the bed, held straight, elbows locked, hands flat on the mattress, waiting for him to walk in, waiting to give him his big surprise. What Julia didn't know was that her husband, Jake, was bringing home a good friend, Anthony, as a surprise dinner guest and was about to give his wife a stunner of his own.
Anthony had been a friend since their college days, and although she had never met Anthony, she had heard stories about him, as he had also of her, and Jake had bragged about his shy and retiring wife for years. Anthony had heard about her conservative and inhibited nature, how devoted and demure, what a good Catholic girl she was, and what an introverted and unsophisticated young woman he had married. But she had decided to turn over a new leaf, so to speak.
As Jake and Anthony came down the hall towards their bedroom where his wife sat naked, he called out, "Sweetheart."
"In here, baby," she said seductively, "I have a surprise for you. Get ready for the time of your life." She then spread her legs wider and closed her eyes. Her pussy lips splayed, wet and slick and pink, since she had worked them good with the dildo that set on the bed next to her, and she waited for her husband to appear, ready to give him his pleasant surprise.
Jake and Anthony quietly crept down the hall. Just before they got to the bedroom door, Jake stepped back and let Anthony go in first. Jake was glad Anthony finally got to meet Julia, since he had told his friend so much about his wife, how proud he was of her, how shy she was, how totally pure, and how everyone who knew her saw how sweet and wholesome she was.
He had told him about her religious upbringing, her conservative nature, and her devotion to her religion, which was strict Catholic. He had told him how she had wanted to become a nun, but had given that up to be a mom, although as yet they had no children. He had told Anthony how reserved she was, how straight laced and modest and virtuous.
When Jake stepped back to let his friend go first into the bedroom, he saw Anthony stop dead in his tracks and freeze as if he'd seen an apparition. Anthony, who had become a Catholic priest after college, and was wearing his collar, said, "I think she has changed." He stepped back. "Her message is most likely for you," he said.
Feeling she heard him in the hall outside of her door, she said, "See anything you like?" Then she thought she heard another voice and opened her eyes.
Anthony, although a priest, was a very progressive clergyman and moved his friend to the door and stepped back out of the way. "We never should have snuck up on her. I will be in the other room." he said stepping back towards the living room. "Tell her I am so very sorry." With that he left, letting Jake handle his very embarrassed, young and very naked wife.
Jake went timidly into the bedroom, apologizing as he went. "I am so sorry, baby. I never should have come home unannounced," he said. For a minute she was silent, then she stood up and began to get dressed, almost casually.
"It's okay," she finally said, blushing. "Is that Father Anthony?" Jake nodded. "I guess I showed him," she said. "Sorry I embarrassed you. He may be traumatized right out of his collar. A slutty wife stuns man of God," she said making up a newspaper headline. "Has he gone?" she asked.
"Waiting in the other room," he said. "He is sorry to have embarrassed you. I am so sorry, baby," Jake said again. "You want me to ask him to go?" he asked.
"No. I'll be fine. Just give me time to get myself together," she said. She finished dressing, then took a deep breath and squared her shoulders. "Okay, let's go meet Father Anthony," she said.
They walked out of the bedroom, down the hall, and into the living room. She approached him, smiled broadly, put out her hand, and said, "Father Anthony, so glad to finally meet you," totally ignoring what had just happened in the bedroom, telling herself there nothing else she could do.
He took her hand and also ignored what had just happened, acting as if he had seen nothing. "Jake is such a lucky man," he said. "He is so very proud of you.
Could I take you both to dinner tonight? Please?"
She turned to Jake. "I have nothing planned," she said.
Father Anthony asked if they liked the Blue Marlin Steakhouse. They both nodded and they got their coats. On the drive to the restaurant, they talked as if nothing had happened in the bedroom that afternoon involving a naked lady, a mortified husband, and an embarrassed Catholic priest seeing a bare lady spreading her legs, waiting for her husband, sitting totally exposed on her bed in her own home.
In college Father Anthony had seen far worse things than a wife trying to surprise her husband for sex. It was, after all, in her very own bedroom. He had seen live sex shows, porn films, erotic magazines, and he certainly knew the ways of the world. Julia was embarrassed, certainly, but besides hiding her head under the pillow there was nothing further she could do about it. It was either bite the bullet and face him, or hide in the closet until he left and pretend it hadn't happened. But it had.
She had flashed a priest, showed him her vagina, displaying everything she had in all its glory. Each time she looked at Father Anthony across the table, she felt a shot of embarrassment she tried to hide but couldn't. She was sure her cheeks matched the red table cloth they sat around.
"Julia," he said, "I am so sorry I messed up your wonderful surprise this afternoon. We have a cabin in the Cleveland National Forest that I would like to offer you the use of this next month. You can spend some quiet time there with total privacy," he said, suppressing a wink. "I hope you'll accept my offer of a weekend at the cabin," he said.
"I regret we have to talk about the elephant in the room, but you we're doing exactly what I advise couples to do everyday to keep their marriages fresh in couples' counseling," he said. "Your timing was unfortunate, but your intentions were perfect. Sex is a good and essential part of marriage," he said. "It is not evil. It is not lewd. Couples should enjoy each other sexually without guilt. You did not show me anything I have not already seen many times, and I am sorry we ruined your plans. But go to our cabin, feel free to do as couples should do. Be our guests. Will you, please?"
Julia smiled and looked at Jake for support. He nodded. She turned to Father Anthony and said, "Thank you Father."
"Just Tony," he said. "We're friends here. Pretty good friends if I remember this afternoon," he joked.
