*********
It was our first vacation alone in forever! Sandra and I boarded the cruise liner in Barcelona after the long trip from Florida via London. We were tired but excited. After almost 20 years of vacations with kids in tow we were free to selfishly enjoy ourselves and each other. A glorious fourteen day cruise through southern Europe including Italy and France. We both loved to travel and loved the history and sightseeing that was part of travel here.
It didn't hurt that into our late forties we were still in love and LUST with each other. We certainly planned to make this trip memorable! If we only knew!
She set sail that evening. We had settled into our two-bedroom luxury suite with no problems. It was huge compared to an average cabin. We had originally planned to travel with friends but when Pete broke his leg skiing he and Angela cancelled. it was too late to invite anyone else and selfishly I didn't mind that much! I figured roommates would interfere with our "playtime".
We spent the first day at sea exploring the ship and enjoying the great restaurants. We went dancing or to the casino then invariably ended the night with hot and satisfying sex.
Sandra would get up early and go to the gym while I slept in and then we'd go get breakfast when she came back. That morning at the breakfast buffet she introduced me to someone she met at the gym.
"Stephen. This is Sherri she's a gym rat just like me!"
We laughed and shook hands. Sherri was tanned and gorgeous. She smiled easily and looked relaxed in her light sleeveless blouse and khaki shorts. We asked her to join us for breakfast and we sat down and got to know each other.
She was an educator from Washington. She had Italian roots and was looking forward to seeing some of the "old country". Like us, her travel companion cancelled at the last minute so she was doing this trip solo. We told her of our lives back home. We had a really good time and I couldn't help but think to myself how lucky I was sitting between these two gorgeous ladies.
We ended up hanging out with Sherri quite a bit. We often dined together and they would gang up on me and drag my lazy ass to the gym on mornings. I grumbled, but it was actually fun. We took tours together when we got into port and since she spoke italian we really got the most out of our sightseeing. We even hit the nightclub. We drank and danced and Sher of course attracted some attention from some of the singles on board but she shot them all down. I would take turns dancing with "my ladies" and we had a blast. I had to admit to myself that I found her very attractive. She would get really close if we danced to a slow number and it was all I could do to keep my arousal from digging a hole in her hip. She would just look at me with those hot eyes and smile. That night when I was making love to Sandra I'd close my eyes and see Sher's face. We definitely had a good night!
The next morning we saw Sher at breakfast and she looked really upset. It turned out that overnight a pipe in her cabin ruptured and soaked everything! She had to change rooms but the ship was full! The only spare berths were tiny crew cabins way below deck. Sandra and I looked at each other and thought the same thing, we did have a spare bedroom...we didn't hesitate, insisting that she move in right away. Sher hesitated, saying that she didn't want to intrude on our 2nd honeymoon. We finally convinced her that it was cool and we arranged for the move. Normal service resumed and we continued to enjoy the cruise together.
Sandra and I did tone down the sex a bit because of Sher's proximity but things were still very enjoyable.
One night after dinner and hitting the casino we headed back to our suite. Sher had really been enjoying the free champagne and seemed a little tipsy. When we got inside she actually gave us both a kiss on the cheek and declared she was heading to bed to sleep off the alcohol.
Sandra was in my arms as soon as her door clicked shut. We kissed and I ran my hand urgently over her body. I grabbed her ass and she moaned into my mouth. She grabbed my hand and led me into our bedroom as we shed our clothes. We fell naked onto the bed and my mouth was all over her, biting her neck licking her nipples. She groaned and started urging my mouth lower.
