Chapter 8
Amber's other bar pickup, Dan and his wife Cindy Richards, showed up at the Broadhurst Swingers next party. The only reason they'd missed the previous session was that Cindy had a friend in town and didn't want to do a lot of explaining about a potentially new lifestyle. I told her she should have brought her friend. We'd had visitors before. She just rolled her eyes as an indication that her friend would have been totally out of place.
Both Diane and Ginny were there, along with Ron, Cathy, Doug, Marcie, and Ted in tow to round out the newer family units in our midst. I paid special attention to the women, but I'd been with both Diane and Ginny mid-week, and so they knew I had to play host and companion to some of the other women.
Dan and Cindy pulled me aside, and told me they needed to talk for fifteen minutes. I wasn't surprised; this was their first sex party as far as I knew. I escorted them to the balcony, and we shut the door into the living room as sort of signal that private talks were underway. Everyone seemed to do this once in a while at the parties, particularly if they'd brought a first-time visitor or, in this case, some new players were attending.
Cindy started our discussion, "First, I need to thank you for a little humiliation that you gave my errant husband the night he fucked your wife. You told him to come home and confess, and that's exactly what he did. It was not his finest moment. Second, you made our marriage much stronger. We have been to four counseling sessions since that night, and I assure you that we are whole and progressing on a new front. Our being here tonight is one of them."
I tilted my head to question her remark.
Cindy continued, "We were drifting apart. Dan being off with Ted looking for quail didn't surprise me, when I thought about it. We hadn't had sex in a month. We were always critical of each other. We ... well, our marriage had ceased to function as what we hoped it would be."
"And now?" I asked.
"We talk. We share. We do things together. We have sex, and we're lovers again. There's more, but those are the headlines. Much of that was brought on by the anticipation of both of us coming here tonight."
"And so you're staying for the whole evening?"
"Yes. This is an experiment in doing something new and totally different together, although I know we'll both have different experiences in this environment, we'll have something to talk about and share. It'll be emotional, sexy, arousing, and provide us a basis for talking like nothing else either of us can imagine. Further, at least for a while it will upset both of our views about each other."
"How's that?" I tilted my head again at the two of them.
Dan responded, "I got to thinking that Cindy didn't like sex. When I'd ask, she'd developed a knee-jerk reaction to turn me down. She always had an automatic headache. The way she's talked about tonight, I'm finding that I didn't marry the girl next door; I married the slut down the street. She wants to fuck anything and everything tonight. I love it, but that'll take me a bit to get used to."
Cindy nodded, "Dan's right. I have done a complete turnaround, and, I'm finding I'm thinking like that little slut too. For the past two or three weeks sex has been almost all I could think about. I've scared Dan a bit, and myself. I love him and want him forever, so our being here is all new thinking on our part."
"Is this a one time visit?" I was curious, not that I minded.
"I'm not sure. I think we'll be back. We both wanted some sexual excitement. Dan was finding it in the lounge at the hotel when he picked up Amber. By the way, what was she doing there alone?"
I laughed, "She wasn't alone. I got a business call and had to leave the table to talk in a less noisy area of the hotel than the lounge. When I came back to the table she was surrounded by hot male flesh putting the make on her - Ted and Dan. She looked happy, so I let her be. I was there watching. She saw me and knew I approved of where things were headed. I also watched in the bedroom later."
Cindy laughed, "Oh, that must have been really arousing. I'd like to do that sometime, getting picked up by a stranger at the hotel." She shot a teasing glance at Dan.
I reached out and touched her hand, "Then hang out with me tonight. We'll have some fun."
She lit up joyfully, "Oh, I'd like that. I already feel comfortable with you, plus I've talked to Ginny several times about her experience here two weeks ago." She paused, "What about Amber?"
I shrugged, "She'll join us later unless the idea bothers you."
"Oh, no. I just don't want to ... be a problem or threat to her."
"You aren't. We are very open in our communication with each other and in our lifestyle. She knows I will always love her, that she's my one true love, and that I'll be her top man."
Cindy nodded and looked at her husband.
Dan said, "I would like Cindy to be with you - and to meet Amber. I heard secondhand about how nice you were to Ginny and how she's in love with you. She raved about how attentive your were, and what a wonderful lover - even better than Ted, I was told in confidence. I want that to happen for Cindy. She deserves it after how cavalierly I treated her. We should have been talking like we are now."
I looked at Cindy and she nodded, "Jon, I put my complete life and trust in your hands. I still love Dan, but I am open to another romance - several of them." She glanced into the living room where the party was in full bloom.
"Wow. I'm honored. Do you believe you can love two or more men at the same time?"
"I do," Cindy replied in an even tone. Dan nodded as well.
"And you are past any anger that you might want to play out against Dan? A revenge fuck?"
"I am."
