Their waitress was the same perky brunette who had greeted Mike so familiarly in the pool table area. Up close, Liz saw she was a stunningly beautiful woman, probably mid-late twenties, with a decent size chest, thin waist, long legs. She was probably about 5'10" or 5'11", just a hair under six foot.
"Hi, I'm Melinda, may I take your order, or would you like me to just freshen your drinks?"
"I'll take another Yuengling, and you, Liz?"
"Melinda—what a pretty name! Not one you hear much anymore."
"Thank you, I'm named for my grandmother."
"Well, Melinda, I am Liz, and very pleased to meet you. I'm still working on my drink so ok there. Instead, I will go for the Texas trio, in honor of Rafael here who hails from the big state, where everything is big, if you know what I mean ." As Liz winked at the waitress, her left hand dropped down and gave a friendly squeeze between Rafael's legs, for added emphasis.
"Got it—one Yuengling and one Texas trio, coming right up, so to speak." Melinda winked back. Evidently she wasn't a prude and was used to the trading the teasing barbs right back with her friendlier customers.
As she sauntered off, Rafael commented, "Wow, I don't think I've ever been with a woman as forward as you, Liz. My wife—"
"Rafael, time to set some ground rules. First off, your wife obviously caused you pain, and is off with someone else right now. You can dwell on that or enjoy your time with me. If you choose me, then let's agree, no more mention of your wife. Agreed?"
"Yes, of course, I'm sorr-"
"Secondly, no more feeling sorry or apologizing. Third, we're having fun, but that does not mean you get to fuck me. I am here with my husband..."
"Whhhat?"
"Sorry, didn't meant to startle you. My husband and I are a bit more open-minded when it comes to games, and well, I came to this bar tonight because he bet me no one would hit on me..." A little stretching of the truth, but she thought Rafael might bolt at the whole truth.
"You did. And for that I am most appreciative, and I am determined to show you a good time, help you to relax, no matter what. I haven't been in a Jacuzzi in awhile and hopefully your offer still stands."
"Well, of course, but..."
"Now, my husband will be in the room as well, but maybe we can convince another certain somebody to join us. You did think our waitress was cute, right?"
A sudden force pushed back against her hand in reply.
"Hmmm....the thought of me and her and you in that hot tub is definitely having a reaction. You know, Rafael, it seems criminal to keep that caged inside your pants..."
