Please read the first two chapters if you don't know or don't remember what has happened so far as the first three chapters are connected to each other.
After kissing Suzy, I let her down, reached down and just stretched out her sweats somewhat so that we both could hear some of the elastic separating before pulling them back up.
Suzy just looked at me with somewhat evil eyes and a sly smile and I explained, "Elastic is evil really, If you were a model and going to a photo shoot, wearing elastic will delay the shoot an hour or two until your skin rebounds from its elastic prison. As we and I mean you and I, while revamping your clothing, we should consider elastic evil or at least a somewhat necessary evil."
Suzy just wiggled her hips a little and her sweats settled so about an inch of her butt was showing. "Oy" she said, "Do you have any more surprises for me today?"
"Well" I said, "Surprises are the spice of life and the spice of our marriage. Do you know at this time yesterday I was just thinking about what to do next and wasn't too excited about the prospects and thinking about watching some golf on TV or putzing around the yard and maybe seeing if you were free to join me outside. Now I'm with you and am more turned on as part of the new normal day you have set out for us and am so excited about the future that I can see that our sexual and loving will now peak high every single day and who is better off than us? I cannot see how our life and love together will regress". I gave Suzy another huge smile.
Suzy said, as we now sat back onto our bed, "I'm so excited that you are more energized now than when our marriage started, or maybe I should say the second most excited I've seen you since the night our marriage started. I am now happy, happy, and even happier right now and can also see how life together will be getting better as far as I can see into the future."
And then after a pause, "I can see you started sorting out my clothes."
"Yes" I replied "I started to put them into 3 piles and I didn't get very far since you weren't gone very long. I didn't start going through your dresser just because you weren't in the room simply because I treat that as your private place. I started with three piles which I urge you to look at because once we both agree where any piece of clothing ends up in a pile, it stays there. My three piles were Sexy, Not Sure and Not Usable but I think we should add a fourth pile of Professional just in case you have jury duty or some other time when it would be completely inappropriate to dress sexy. But even then, you will have to Sexy those garments but it may be just cutting off one button or something similar."
"You know that I will need to stay warm in the winter and will need to make clothes every time you buy me some so I if I can use some of the material from my current clothes it will be cheaper than buying fabric at the store so I think we should add a "Material Only pile."
As you can see, it took some time to go through every piece of clothing Suzy owned. We even dug out all the clothing in storage so we looked at every bit of clothing Suzy owned.
What came out of it was:
1. Suzy did own many clothes which could be transformed into sexy with her genius on the sewing machine.
2. Suzy raided my closet and "borrowed" some of my clothes because, "Women always look sexy in her guy's clothes".
3. Suzy did part with all but a few of her bras. "I don't want the temptation but sometimes it will be sexier with a bra, wait and see, and once in a while I'll need a normal bra".
4. We put about half of Suzy's panties and swim suits into the "Material Only" pile.
5. We decided to research cold weather sexy clothes and other sexy clothing ideas online once a week for as long as we need ideas, "with Suzy naked or mostly naked sitting on my naked lap". After all, what couple doesn't need more quality time together?
6. We currently live in a two bedroom apartment (saving for a house of our own) with the second bedroom being used as the computer room which is basically my office. We set up almost half of that room to make a permanent place for Suzy's sewing machine and moved a few things around to give her some shelving to place her "material".
7. Suzy promised to start altering her clothing "almost on a daily basis" with me directing what was needed next and giving ideas too.
Once these "chores" were done, we sat down on the bed with our second beer and Suzy asked, "What about that shopping trip you promised? You know we are halfway through our five year plan to save for a down payment plus closing costs for a starter home and we don't have a lot of extra spending money so I don't know how wise it will be to go shopping."
I looked at her, took another sip of beer, "While we were working, I came up with a question I was wondering about and a proposal about finances. Don't look so apprehensive simply because nothing will I ask will hurt you. So first I'll ask the question I was wondering about".
"How did you come up with this sexy way to spice our marriage? Again, don't look so hurt. I love, love it but I've known you for about 6 years and I've never heard before anything like this from you so am only curious. Yes, I know you usually dress sexier than most women but . . ."
