I slept late that Saturday morning and when I awoke it was 8:45am. Downstairs, I smelled the enticing aroma of fresh brewed coffee and so I pulled myself out of bed, shaved and showered. I threw on my Saturday shorts and a freshly laundered tee shirt and walked downstairs looking for my wife. When I walked into the kitchen I expected to see her but found the kitchen empty. I looked in the den and still no sign of her, so I headed for the next best thing, at that time of the morning, a fresh, hot cup of coffee. Maybe she ran out for a quick errand?
The warm, pleasant aroma of the coffee hit me as I filled the cup and I watched as the steam swirled above the mug. I took a sip and looked through the kitchen window toward our back yard. The sight of my wife, standing stark, naked immediately caught my attention. She had a cup of coffee in one hand and was bent over looking at the newly blooming June flowers. The sun was just coming over the roof of the house, and it bathed her in warm, morning light giving her a golden aura due to the reflection off the little hairs of her nude body.
It gave me a secret thrill to see her standing naked right in our backyard. We lived in a neighborhood with houses a couple of hundred feet away so while we are not right on top of our neighbors we could still see each other. The possibility of being observed was very much real, which made what she was doing so out of character. How many times had I suggested we spend the day naked? The simple act of being naked together was intoxicating. The unspoken possibilities of what might happen between two naked lovers. What secrets will they share between themselves?
