The office phone rang as I shut down the computer, another day at an end. It was my boss, John.
"Deal done!" he exclaimed.
"Fantastic, well done!" I replied.
"And well done to you β it wouldn't have happened without your creative genius."
"Thanks, man," I replied.
It truly was great news. We had worked on this project for weeks, and now it had come to fruition β a very lucrative long-term contract with a blue chip company was a huge bonus for a small firm like ours.
"I've just left the airport and I'll be home in about 40 minutes," he said. "Why don't you meet me at my place and we'll have a drink to celebrate."
John and I were good friends. He was my boss, but he'd taken a punt on me several years ago as a struggling, failed author trying to get into ad copy writing with no experience. He had taught me a lot of things about the industry, and now with this deal, together we had hit pay dirt.
I arrived at his house and rang the doorbell. His wife, Suzi, let me in.
"Hi David, John's not home yet, but he told me the news. Isn't it great?"
"It's brilliant. Makes it all worthwhile β I should hit him up for a raise."
She laughed and handed me a beer. She grabbed her own already-poured wine glass and we adjourned to the living room, sitting opposite one another on their pair of expensive looking leather sofas, and exchanged small talk about our days. I knew Suzi quite well; John would often invite me round for after-work drinks. She is a warm and bubbly girl β and very good looking.
Suzi is about 27, quite a bit younger than John, but certainly no trophy wife as far as I could see. Their relationship appeared to be pretty good, they seemed like a perfect fit, the kind of thing I'd been looking for but so far in my 35 years hadn't quite yet managed.
Suzi is nice to be around and she could also be a little flirtatious at times, although never anything overt, more in a sort of innocent girly kind of way. I would sometimes mildly flirt back with her, but it was never anything beyond goodhearted playfulness. I always had the feeling that she was actually quite a shy person.
But she was my wife's boss, and I really had never entertained any desires upon her beyond the fact that she was first-class eye candy - with her slim figure, lovely shoulder length brown hair, her perfectly shaped little tits, flashing blue eyes and cute smile, she sure was something to behold.
"I've been out shopping today," she said. "Got this skirt β what do you think?" She was looking down at it, tugging the hem lightly. She was wearing a short light blue skirt that flared slightly, and a white tight-fitting singlet top that accentuated the shape of her smallish but oh so cute and perfectly rounded breasts. With the white running shoes she was wearing it was kind of like a tennis outfit, except that it was just a little too formal looking.
"Looks great," I replied. It was true. "It's the perfect compliment to your fabulously sexy legs."
She blushed slightly at the ridiculous banter tumbling out of my mouth. I almost blushed myself β 'fabulously sexy legs'? Oh dear...
"Oh, you men!" she sighed. "It's a bit short for my liking, but I hope John likes it."
"Well, as a man," I continued, hoping I hadn't embarrassed her with the fabulously sexy legs thing, "I can understand why he would want to look at you in short skirts. And I think he will like this one."
"I hope so. He always likes it when I'm wearing something nice, especially when it catches the eye of another guy. He seems to like it when other guys check me out. That's why I asked you."
She looked good, alright. And she'd certainly caught my eye. She was facing me, comfortably reclined, her legs not quite together as she continued to fiddle with the hem of the dress, examining her purchase. She asked me what I thought of the colour as she ran her fingers around the hem, sorting of flicking it up a bit and then letting it settle back down, briefly exposing the tops of her upper thighs. She looked down again and admired the skirt, which had now ridden up an inch or so. I told her she would look good in that skirt in any colour.
"You think so?" she said, this time shifting in her seat. Her legs had come apart a little. A felt a surge a blood to my brain as I beheld the sight of this sexy little creature and the realisation hit me that maybe this wasn't an accident; it was blatant. Surely it must have been blatant? She wanted to show off her new skirt and her long, tanned legs. Clearly, it seemed to me, she was fishing for compliments about her body β in a manner that was a little bit too overt considering she was sitting in the lounge of her house with a man who wasn't her husband. This was a side of Suzi I hadn't seen and I was starting to wonder where this was heading β but I wasn't too worried because I knew John would be home at any minute. Comfortable in that knowledge, I thought, 'why not play along a while?' I was wondering how much more I would see, whether by accident or design.
"Suzi, you look great in that. You're a very sexy looking woman. You've got better legs than most 18 year olds."
"You really think my legs look good?" she replied, briefly looking up at me with a shy smile before glancing back down at her legs, as if to see for herself that I wasn't just making it up. Now her legs had come apart a bit more. Sitting there, not four feet in front of me, she was all but brazenly displaying her panties.
The tension in the air was unmistakable now, and it wasn't just the pounding in my brain and heart, and in my cock, which was definitely starting to stir. If this kept up any longer I'd be having to hide a massive hard-on. There was a pause in the conversation as she sipped her wine. I took a big slug of my beer. I decided to get a little bolder.
