The gentle late spring breeze carried the enchanting scent of wild lilac and honey suckle washing the deck with the seductive fragrance of summer. The spring had been a bit cooler than normal but this early June evening was just heavenly.
The conversation was light and easy as they sat reclining, sipping on chilled wine, beside the pool. Brock and Lisa had known Tom and his wife, Amber for many years, enjoying many such evenings together. Brock and Tom were built very much alike, both large men in stature and character. The look about them of strong active men, men who relished in activity rather than avoiding it. Their similarities did not end with just appearance. They were both devoted and loving husbands and fathers, putting the needs of their families before all others. It was this strength of character and moral grounding that fostered a long lasting friendship.
Lisa and Amber were also much alike. Both mothers, devoted to the raising of strong independent children. Both beautiful in appearance with the natural beauty that is generated from deep within, a beauty that radiates from their very core, not applied by brush and mirror. Their bodies reflecting the womanly curves that tantalize the senses.
The evening had started off as it did on many occasions prior. The sizzling sound of steaks cooking on the grill and the refreshing feel of an ice cold beer in your hand. The evening being a bit muggier than most that spring, they decided to eat beside the pool. After dinner Lisa and Amber cleared the table as Brock and Tom brought the chase lounges from garage after turning on the pool heater and rolling back the solar cover.
The gentle hum of the pool pump, the crickets and the light Marlow soothed the soul, washing away the tensions of the week.
“It is just so quite and secluded here” Tom commented as Amber settled down between his legs on the chase resting her flowing red hair upon his chest.
“We just love it out here at night, the stars just seem to come alive out here, reach down and lift your spirits. Oh honey that feels so good.” Lisa’s delicate hands felt so good as she massaged Brock’s neck releasing what tensions remained.
“You know it is getting kind of late and we have all but finished off this bottle of wine, not to mention the Coors you two boys had while you were grilling. Tom why don’t you and Amber just crash here this evening?”
The two older kids had left earlier that afternoon for camp and would not be home for the next three evenings and the baby was spending quality “grandmother time” with Brock’s mom. So the back yard was a peaceful haven with the only light coming from the scented oil torches their amber glow bouncing off of the gentle waves of the pool surface.
“Honey, that sounds like such a great idea. I think I still have that overnight bag in the car from our trip to your mother’s last weekend.”
“You don’t have to twist my arm; I could hang out here forever. That pool is looking mighty enticing. That is if you two are serious.”
“Hey man you know my house is yours, you two make yourselves at home. Here let me give you a hand taking your stuff up to the spare room.”
With that Brock pulled himself up laughing with Tom as they chided one another about some baseball score and headed to the driveway. The girls stretched out on the chairs. Lisa kicked off her sandals wiggling her toes, looking over at Amber she was surprised by just how lovely she looked, the light reflecting off of the pool made her hair look as though it was ablaze.
“That pool does seem to be calling. I checked it earlier and it was 80 degrees. That would feel so good but I know I did not bring a suite, not much need for one of those at my mother in laws Manhattan apartment.”
Brock and Lisa’s relationship had grown so strong since he had left the large law firm and joined forces with his now partner in starting their own business. The seventy hour weeks, endless travel and never ending deadlines had eaten at their relationship to the point that both had grown distant and irritable. Since his departure over a year ago they had once again found the passion and love that had pulled them through so many of life’s struggles. It was in this rediscovery they found, through heretofore absent communication, that they both shared sexual fantasies of adventure. In privacy and intimacy of their bedroom they discussed their desires to explore all aspects of their sexuality, describing time and again the scenes of hot passions many of which involved multiple partners and same sex contact. But both Lisa and Brock were certain that these wild adventures would remain fantasies, locked forever in their most private dreams
It was in that moment, whether induced by the recall of these taboo thoughts or by the emptying of the wine bottle that now lay askew on the ground between the two lounges that a tantalizing thought struck Lisa.
“You know we are all adults here Amber. I have seen the suite that you wear and it does little to hide that wonderful body of yours so why don’t you just go in what the good Lord blessed you with?”
“Hey, I am game if you are?” Amber giggled as she jumped up. In a few seconds their cloths lay in one pile beside the pool’s edge. The water felt so warm and soothing on their skin as they splashed and laughed.
“You know Lisa, I hope you do not mind me saying this but you are looking amazing. I swear it took me so long to get back into shape after Nathan but Jessica is not even a year old yet is she and look at you, you look amazing.”
“Well thanks that makes me feel good coming from you. You and Tom make such a wonderful couple. Brock and I both feel so comfortable with you two. I am glad that you two decided to stay.”
In the distance they heard the screen door close as Brock and Tom came from the house. In the darkness they could not see the girls at the edge of the pool.
“Hey you two we thought you got lost. Why don’t you come on in the water is fine.” The girls laughed as they both kicked off the edge into an easy backstroke revealing there voluptuous figures backlit by the pool lights.
