"So you've been married to Don Roberts for what, a year now?"
Janet asked me that as we stood talking in a crowded room sipping vodka martinis.
"A little less than", I responded.
"OK, so what's that bastard like as a husband?"
"Different from my first marriage, way different."
Janet and I were at the cast and crew party for the musical 'Nunsense'. Myself, just me and my KORG, I did all the music. I was the one man band, and the KORG had so many different sounds that I could pull it off. And pull it off I did. Janet had a singing part as a nun and honestly she was good. I admired her, I had tried and I'd failed as a singer. It was closing night after a three week run at a small theater in Columbus, and it was time for the crew to let loose. And time to say goodbye, after a successful run. The cast were mostly women and a few guys. And most males, in theater, are gay.
It was weird wearing those heavy nun outfits. Under the lights, they get quite steamy. Most of the gals, for this the last night and for the closing, were dressed for pleasure. As a kick, we had agreed to wear erotic outfits underneath the nun garb. Looking around the party, all of us want to be famous actresses were showing off a lot of skin. And Janet, hands down, she was the most attractive woman there.
Janet was wearing a green cocktail dress that was open in front. She was a tall brunette, maybe 130 pounds, medium thin, and bigger than I am. She had a pretty face with a straight small nose and a shapely figure. Her hair gently touched her shoulders. On a good day of the month she was a size 6. Her dress was cut low enough for me to catch a glimpse of her nipples through her transparent green bra. The dress also had a wide slit up the side, high enough to see hints of pale green thigh highs and a matching green garter, with belts running down the front, and back, of her leg. Party underwear, I thought, as I studied her. And I sensed that she was studying me, that she had her eyes on me for some reason. Myself, I am a bottle blond, 5'5, and 118 pounds, and I wear a 36C bra, when I wear one. That evening I had on black heels, my stretch black mini skirt, a matching stretch strapless top, a little foundation makeup, light lip gloss, and nothing else. Earlier, I flashed my upper thigh at Janet, just for fun, and she followed over and brought me a drink. I'd known her for a while, but I didn't know her well.
"So where is the husband Don anyway?"
"Well, he's off in Indiana. He thinks he has a shot at a new H.H. Gregg commercial. It's been a couple of weeks since he's been home. Last year he was in an Indianapolis local T.V. spot for them. He's auditioned for another, and he's there waiting to see what happens."
"Auditions…" Janet's voice tailed off. "I auditioned before Don for 'Butterflies are Free'. I wanted the female lead. Dave Epling was doing the casting, and Don was there helping out. There's a scene where the lead sings a number in her bra and panties. They had me read that scene. Then Don told me to take off my clothes and read the scene again."
"I at first thought he meant for me to read the scene in my bra and panties, which follows the script. So I took my dress off and went back to the script."
"No, Don said to me, take off all of your clothes, read this scene in the nude."
"I'd never been asked to do that before. Sure, we all think about it; what to do when it happens. Especially if a role requires some nudity, we expect it. I wanted the part, so... I unfastened my bra, slipped it off and set it down, and I lowered my panties and stepped out of them. Then those guys had me do the whole scene over, naked, while they pretended to direct me. It was get up, sit down, cross your legs, uncross your legs, stand, even dance and shake my butt. Then I had to sing the audition song in the nude with no musical accompaniment."
"It wasn't that I didn't know. All the auditions were being video taped. I knew they were filming me while I undressed, and when I spread my legs and arched my back I did it for the camera, trying to look my best. And I was damn good. But I didn't get the part, you know that bitch Cynthia did. And I heard that she got on her knees to get it."
"But Cynthia," I replied, "she is a very beautiful woman. They always tell us, if things are equal, they'll choose a woman who will fuck over one who won't."
I tried for a role in that play," I said. "But I ended up in costumes. Don was still married to Kathy then, that's when I first met him. She was his forth wife, I think. Don and I were hanging out one night when Kathy was out of town, and we've sort of, off and on, been together since."
"Did you fuck Don while he was still married to Kathy?" Janet asked me.
"Well...I...sure, I fucked him. I'm no virgin, and it was when I was taking acting lessons from Don. We were at some place rehearsing a love scene, practicing for a part I was up for, and he was coaching me. Don told me to undress. I thought, OK, it's part of the scene, I'll show him that I can do it. I took all my clothes off except for my heels, and I stood naked in front of him. But it didn't stop there. Don was different once he realized that I would do as he said. And what he said was that I should move around the room, twisting, turning, and show off my body, and that I should follow his every cue. Don coached me that nudity is an opportunity to seize the audience' attention. I loved it as he instructed me. I knelt down when he told me to kneel, and --- then he came up to me and he told me to undue his pants. I did, and I took his cock out. I sucked Don's cock when he told me to suck him, but once I had, he told me to stop. Next he directed me to get on the bed, and to spread my legs. Janet, Don has the power to control me, and that excites me. It runs like a jolt of electricity through me. I lay there waiting, tingling all over, and Don took a few stills of me with my legs spread. I stayed spread hoping that he would fuck me, and he did. After he came in me I thanked him for the lesson."
Janet took a gulp of her vodka and looked over at me. I gulped mine down too, and it was my third. I began feeling relaxed. Performing a whole musical score by myself, every night, was difficult. I needed to wind down.
"I've felt that way before", Janet said. "It's as if a magnetism overcomes me, a force, but it's also a feeling about having someone else make the decisions. The key is trust and be comfortable with it. Maybe that's why we're actresses."
"That was back when I was still married to Jim", I said, "although we'd separated. Jim was playing around on me with a rock band roadie and I wanted some revenge. But I fucked Don to get a shot at a part too. He told the casting director, who was gay, what I would do. I got the part, I divorced Jim, Don moved into my house and now we're married. It just happened. Don can be a little kinky in bed, but I am enjoying it."
"What does a little kinky mean?" Janet asked.
"He does things to make up for…..you know. It's funny, Janet, when I think about it. My first husband Jim Rieces, who's a little skinny guy who could share my jeans, he had the biggest, fattest cock that I have ever had my mouth on. But Don Roberts, even though he's a big guy, he has the smallest."
"I suppose that depends on how many cocks you've had your mouth on," Janet teased.
"A lot more than two," I shot back.
Janet's cell phone rang. She excused herself and took the call, and I finished my vodka. A few minutes later she came back over to me, this time with fresh martinis. She put her hand on my bare shoulder, and kept it there.
"Listen..." she said. "That was my husband Bill on the phone, he's on his way to pick me up. I know it's late, but, well, I'd like you to come over to our house. We can talk and get to know each other better. Bill and I are working through some issues and we could use another opinion, and some company. You're not too sleepy, are you?"
Having said that, Janet leaned toward me. With her arm now around my shoulder, she gave me a short kiss on my lips. "It'll be fun," she said.
