It was an evening of darts my wife won't forget in a hurry!
A fusion of alcohol, a persuasive older woman and a foreign vacation, resulted in her state of undress.
It was our first visit to the craziness of L.A! In fact, neither of us had been to the U.S before! The duplex rental looked fantastic in the photos and was even better in reality, it would indeed be a very different Christmas & new year!
We'd found the place on the internet. All liaison had been by e-mail, firstly with Hank and then with his wife Lea, we'd agreed a price, only for them to ask for more at the very last minute due to the season! Plus a refundable $400 damage deposit.
As our vacation was coming to an end, I got an e-mail from Hank, wanting to come to the property to check that there was no damage and return our deposit in cash. We weren't due to check out until the Saturday morning, but he came on the Thursday evening.
He was an older man in his 60's, tall, easy going and charismatic. He had a quick look around and finished in the bedroom. He spoke mostly with my wife Yumiko, I overheard him mention that he had been to Japan a few times, and even went so far as to say that he'd had a relationship with a Japanese girl when he was at university!
He seemed to really like Yumiko, they talked for a while before he confessed that he'd been to the bank earlier that day, but now didn't have the full deposit, as had gotten side tracked paying for something else, I gave him the benefit of the doubt, as I knew from his mails that he was an attorney at law, so I figured he was good for it!
He offered to sort everything out the next day and called Lea to remind him. As he put his cellphone back in his jacket pocket and said something along the lines of "Lea wondered if you'd like to join us at our place for a drink tomorrow evening? as she's a bit embarrassed about the deposit, and she's also rather curious about what you thought of LA and this place?" He continued "and you'll definitely get all of your money if she's involved."
I looked at Yumiko and she nodded her head slightly in agreement, so I said we'd stop by for a drink, he said that it wasn't too far and gave us the address.
We spent our last day doing some souvenir shopping, packed our cases and got ready for the evening, Yumiko decided to dress quite conservatively, and put on a thick lined smart ankle length black skirt, short purple buttoned top and some black heels, made up her face and ponytailed her hair.
When we got to Hank's rather plush residence at just gone 8, Lea (a rather sexy red head in her early 60's) answered the door with a big grin on her face, introduced herself and welcomed us in, she brought us through the hallway and opened a door which lead down to the basement.
The walls leading down had old maple wood cladding panels from top to bottom, which matched the shade of the stairs, above the entrance to the basement a sign read "Hank's hideaway" as we entered we noticed that we weren't alone!
Two other couples in their 60's were standing around a wooden table drinking, Hank and a fat balding guy (Randy) were setting up a game on an expensive full sized electronic dart machine, which had a large video screen above the board.
The basement was a real slice of Americana! About 15 ft square, a large national flag adorned the wall space near the dart machine (possibly to cover up how much the room, not to mention the wooden flooring was in need of redecoration) the basement housed other U.S. paraphernalia, and against a wall a small sofa was covered in a Stars and Stripes throw blanket.
The dart machine took precedence in the middle of the room, a black oche throwing mat faced it, in the background we could hear some old vinyl 60's tunes coming from an old jukebox.
We were quite surprised to see all the others? As assumed it would have just been us as we'd planned to have a quick drink, get our cash and go! Everyone looked like they were in their 60's / 70's.! Lea introduced us in turn to Todd, Sally, Bill, Annette and Randy (a former marine)
All of which were perfectly pleasant and amicable, with the exception of Annette (Randy's wife) a fading blond 60 + something, in a long tight denim skirt, she seemed ok but I felt a little unfriendly towards Yumiko.
Lea got us some beers and then returned with her camera, she told us that she had recently taken up amateur photography, and was going to test out her new Christmas present!
As the drinks kept coming, I noticed Yumiko start to relax more and more, she became a bit gingerly, especially with the men folk who were now surrounding her, the ambience in the place was easy going and friendly, and everyone had questions about the UK / Japan and what we had seen in L.A?
Annette seemed a little drunker and forward than the others! And said cheekily to Hank "As we've got some foreign guests, how about playing some strip poker to break the ice?"
Everyone laughed, and Hank jokingly replied "that all depends on them."
The darts machine was Hank's new toy and it looked exciting! Everyone wanted to have a go, so we all went over and had a few quick games each, which was a lot of semi drunken fun, despite Annette / Randy's over competitiveness!
After a few games, Yumiko & I ended up pitied against Hank & Annette, but before we could start, Hank produced his lucky "American" darts which had eagles & stars and stripes on the flights! He handed Yumiko some darts with Union Jack flights, she didn't play too badly, but they won most of the games fairly quickly thanks to Hank.
Annette had kept her eye on Yumiko the whole time! She wanted to play with just her and so had waited for the right moment, they ended up playing four quite competitive games of 301, which resulted in a 2-2 tie! It was then that Annette suggested they make it exciting and up the ante, by making a wager on the next game.
Yumiko agreed and asked what she had in mind? "How about $100?" Annette replied, but Yumiko didn't seem that keen and screwed up her face! Annette smiled and said "ok, you how about something else to make it interesting?" she paused for a minute and looked Yumiko up and down and said "how about this? If you win I'll give you a $100! But if I win you have to take something off?"
Everyone overheard Annette and there were a few smiles and sniggering at her suggestion, but no one objected! Yumiko looked a bit awkward and was a little lost for words to reply, but didn't actually refuse, possibly due to Annette's strong, quite intimidating persona!
Yumiko asked me in a small voice if this was one of those "you're only alive once thing's?"
I laughed and told her that it was up to her, but we'd probably never see these people ever again!
Annette broke the silence with a little persuasion, big grin and in a friendly tone said "c'mon it's your last night in L.A, last chance to do something crazy!"
Now I'm not sure if it was because of her new years' resolution to be more daring?, the alcohol? or Annette's bossiness? but she cheekily smiled back and said "oh, what the hell, I might win $100?"
Annette's face changed to a beatific smile and said "attagirl".
As they were about to start another game of 301, Lea came over and took a pic of them shaking hands with the dart machine between them. She thought the wager was a bit of harmless fun to liven things up and said she would photo them playing!
Hank handed his "American" darts to Annette and said something jokingly like "remember, this is for America, take these!"
Annette threw first, as had won the last game, they both played well enough, although Yumiko was a little behind as Annette was looking to end the game! It all seemed to have gone by so quickly!
Randy stood close by and egged her on, with amusing chants of "You've got this, honey" and "c'mon national pride's at stake".
They'd only played for about 5 minutes or so and Annette just needed the three but kept busting! Yumiko had a five to get but kept busting too! They kept throwing but both failed!
All of a sudden the screen made a noise and stopped after Yumiko's throw, they'd had their bar programmed ten rounds! The screen read player 1 as the winner (due to being closer to zero) and an audio clapping sound came from the machine. Yumiko was a little confused as to why she had lost? Until Randy explained the rules!
Yumiko accepted what he said and Randy high fived his partially showboating wife, Yumiko congratulated her too!
Stripping
It was time for something to come off!
Yumiko just stared at Annette, I think she still felt a bit frustrated that she'd only been beaten by the ten round rule! Nevertheless, Annette looked relieved not to have lost and savoured the moment.
Yumiko naively slipped off her heels and smiled. Annette looked at her and shook her head "no, you need to take something else off" and pointed towards her skirt!
Yumiko replied with a pitiful "oh" and looked down at it, her faced dropped!
I couldn't believe that my normally self-effacing wife was about to strip for strangers! But, without any hesitation, she stood and faced Annette, put her thumbs inside the skirt, stretched out the inside elastic a little and slowly slid it down off her hips, as it went down, her new pink mesh CK panties came into view!
She let it fall down her long smooth legs to the ground. I heard a few "wow's" and "shiiiit" from the men folk and the clicks/flashes of Lea's camera as she did it!
As she bent forward to slip it off over her shoes, her butt cheeks became visible through the thin material, she picked it up then climbed back into her heels.
As she looked up to face everyone, her top wasn't quite long enough by far to cover her sexy panties, leaving her dark pubic hair peeping a little through the front, she folded the long skirt neatly into three and handed it to Annette, who smiled and said "thanks...oh nice panties."
