----------------------------------------
We lay in bed after an intense lovemaking session, the slight haze of weed still enveloping our minds; Nicole wanted to reassure me that with Roger it was only lust and that with me it was deep love.
"Don't worry." I told her "You have my full permission for your trysts with Roger, or anyone else for that matter; I get my enjoyment from seeing you experiencing such pleasure, or at least hearing about it when you describe it back to me."
I leaned over to take a sip of the earthy red burgundy that had had come from her father's winery back in France; turning over I pulled Nicole's soft, naked body in tight against me and kissed her.
"That threesome we had with Roger was totally hot but I also want to do something for you." She replied.
"If something comes up then who knows, but don't stress over it; allowing you to have fun, get turned on, turns me on."
Knowing my loving wife, I was already wondering if, where or when we would find ourselves in a situation where she could be happy that she had somehow returned the favor of the Hall Pass I had allowed her.
It didn't take long.
----------
Nicole is one of the most stylish women I've ever met and erotically sensual to boot; it's no wonder that we've been together for over 25 years now and this seductively rounded woman can still get me hard with a look, a smile, or a flash of some body part. Over a recent glass of wine I calculated that we must have made love over 4,000 times and it's never gotten boring; from sexual adventures in the olive groves of Provence to an eventful episode in the bathroom of a very upscale restaurant in Munich, from sex in the swimming pool at the chateau to that wildly exhibitionist hour in the private club, from Nicole's recent joining of the mile high club to our resultant threesome experience, my wife had never declined a single game or fantasy.
"I discovered this great little bistro." Nicole announced, just a hint of her French accent breaking through as she rolled the 'r'. Putting down her bags of shopping and flicking back her strawberry blonde mane, she continued "We have to go there, it's just like Paris."
I smiled. "Why not, book us a table for dinner."
"It has to be for lunch, they're not open evenings. Typically French." She laughed.
"K. Let's go on Friday." I offered.
----------
I have to admit, it did look very Parisian; pieces of dark wood furniture and white marble tables with straight-backed, rattan seated, country chairs all offset against the sunshine yellow painted walls. The floor was worn mahogany but someone had found traditional black and white ceramic tiles from France to pave the entrance way. The bistro even smelled of French patisserie, fresh baguettes, and café au lait!
We selected a table near the window and from the counter we ordered the homemade ratatouille quiche with a fresh salade Grecque and two glasses of brut Champagne. Nicole's smile was enormous and infectious as she clearly revealed in the atmosphere transporting her back to her younger days in Paris. She regaled me for the umpteenth time with stories of her tiny apartment just off the Boulevard de Clichy around the corner from the original Moulin Rouge and how the red lights of the cabaret would light up her bedroom late at night.
Our server brought over the Champagne, greeting us with the slightest hint of an accent. Nicole seized the opportunity to launch into her mother tongue briefly surprising the young woman before she also smiled broadly and rattled off several sentences in fluent French. I smiled and listened to the two of them.
Mireille was indeed from France and had come to the U.S. on a working visa to support the family business. The clues told us she was late 30s, maybe 40 years old, but her soft gallic features, flawless skin, and shiny brunette hair made her appear younger. The chaotic, high-speed, colloquial French continued as I cast an eye over Nicole's new friend; Mireille wore the typical server outfit of black blouse and pants with a white apron around her waist but she had a poise and elegance about her, a sensual manner that was highlighted by the hint of a black lace supported décolleté peeking past the open third button of her blouse.
"Just call me if you need anything else." Mireille said, twirling her hips away from us as she turned to go take care of other customers.
Her blue eyes sparkling, Nicole leaned towards me conspiratorially and whispered "I have a girl-crush."
I laughed out loud, Nicole giggled along with me as she tried unsuccessfully to "Shushhh..." me.
We spoke softly, out of earshot of anyone else.
"A girl-crush on Mireille? How does that work then? Tell me about it it" I prompted my wife.
"Oh I don't know. She's gorgeous though don't you think?" Nicole asked, almost shyly.
"Definitely, but I'm not the one with the crush. You've never admitted to a girl-crush before. With total freedom, how should you follow up then?" I probed.
"The thoughts in my head were not that complicated. I just mean that I am very attracted to her, she's beautiful and a really nice person."
'So you'd sleep with her?" I probed further.
Nicole looked around, checking to see if anyone had heard. Satisfied, she replied mildly agitated "I didn't say that. I hadn't thought that far!"
I was amused and couldn't resist teasing a little more. "So that's a yes? You would sleep with her?"
"Well, I guess. I don't know." She softened her tone.
"That's not a 'No'..." I let the word hang and raise my eyebrows questioningly.
Nicole dropped her voice to a complete whisper and leaned lightly toward me. "It's a 'maybe'...because I've never slept with a woman before."
I saw the smile in her eyes and knew that my wife was trying to shock me; or at least get some friendly revenge for the tease.
"K. I guess that's something we need to fix then." I winked at Nicole and waved at Mireille across behind the counter.
As Mireille approached, Nicole looked directly at me half amused, half shocked.
"I need to ask you something Mireille."
Mireille nodded; I had the impression that Nicole was holding her breath.
"Are the crêpes good?" I asked. I swear I heard Nicole exhale.
"The crêpes L'Odéon are my favorites, just with sugar, lemon and whipped cream." Mireille replied positively.
"Sounds good to me! Plus an espresso please." A questioning glance at Nicole had me understand she didn't want any crêpes but i also asked for two forks just in case.
After Mireille had left us again Nicole playfully slapped my arm. "Oh my God, I thought you were going to say something embarrassing."
I resumed the teasing. "Why would it have been embarrassing? Surely she would only have been flattered to know that someone found her so attractive?"
"I should never have told you." Nicole laughed and shook her head. "Boys and their fantasies, ha!"
"Fantasies can be fun when they come true. You of all people should know." I winked at my wife again.
We finished our meal and Nicole went off to find the restroom while I paid, The plastic credit card folder with our check lay on the table in front of me and i knew i couldn't resist. I slipped in a note for Mireille telling her about Nicole's crush and included our address.
