It was the night before Christmas and I was feeling kinda naughty and horny at the same time. We sat on the floor beside the glowing Christmas tree, my husband and I, and we kissed and exchanged gifts. A Tony Bennett CD was playing on the stereo. Outside our driveway and much of the neighbourhood were covered in snow and holiday festivity.
My gift to Andy had come in a small package compared to his which came in a bigger box; I couldn't help speculating what was inside, and I was dying to find out.
"You go ahead and open yours first," I said to him.
He tore through the wrapping but stopped to read what was on the box. He had this peculiar look on his face that went from mild curiosity to overblown surprise as he looked up at me.
"My God, Lauren! You shouldn't have."
"But I did, darling," I laughed, touched by the happiness I saw reflected in his eyes. For a moment my husband looked like a kid instead of the 39 year old I've always loved. We have been married for going on six years and every year of our marriage has been a blessing. With such blessings comes some kinky forms of excitement. The sort we seldom have enough time to enjoy, what with work and so on, but we strive to make time for behind closed doors.
Andy ripped the seal off the box then opened the lid to take out the stainless steel cock cage chastity device packaged inside; it came with two sets of keys. Andy was agog behind his glasses. He blushed as he held the device before his face as if it were an Olympic gold medal.
"I've always wanted one of these," he said. "I'm surprised you remembered. We haven't talked about this sinceβ--β"
"Last June," I said. "Yes, honey. I remember, and I've wanted to surprise you since. Tonight seems like the perfect night."
"You really knocked out my breath with this, darling." He leaned towards me and we kissed. "You really are my best friend ever."
"Aw, thank you, babe. Now, how about I see what you bought me," I gestured at his gift box.
"Actually I bought you two things," he said, pushing his glasses up his nose. "This is the first; the second one is on its way here. But go ahead, open it."
I did as he wanted and tore off the wrapping to find what was inside. It was a pink box with a card taped on it. I opened the card and it simply said: HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DARLING! in Andy's familiar cursive writing.
"Happy birthday, babe," Andy kissed me again.
It was my turn to blush. I turned 36 today, and it amazed me that between setting up the Christmas tree and decorating the house, I'd been so absent minded and forgetful about a most important day in my life. Lucky for me Andy had remembered.
"Oh, my God, darling... I don't know what to say."
"Well, don't stop. Open the box and see what's inside."
I opened the box and uttered a gasp. Inside was snuggled a red Christmas babydoll chemise; it came with a set of red panties too. I unfolded it and held it in front of my face like I was inspecting a treasure. I appraised the outfit in aweβ-βI couldn't have wanted anything sexier for Christmas.
"Go ahead and try it on," Andy said.
I stood up and got out of my shorts and tank top and started slipping on the red panties and babydoll. I tied the top but left the rest open to showcase the bottom of my tits and my abdomen.
