). In that story, Gabe describes how he and his wife, Celeste, became adherents to a multiple partner life style while on a cruise. In this story he continues to describe how things changed at home and how they approached addressing their desire to increase their activities with other couples.
Two weeks after they returned home from the cruise, Gabe and Celeste were still basking in the warm glow of increased satisfaction with their sex life. It was a Friday evening and Gabe and Celeste had gone to bed early. They were lying in bed about ninety minutes later, exhausted and sweaty when Celeste asked, "Gabe, do you ever fantasize when we're making sex?"
"Since you asked the question," Gabe responded, "I assume you do."
"This isn't about me," insisted Celeste. "I asked you if you fantasize during sex."
"Never when we're making love," said Gabe. "Sometimes when we're just having sex."
"Oh," said Celeste.
"How about you?" asked Gabe.
"About the same," admitted Celeste. "Do you fantasize about another woman?"
"I certainly don't fantasize about another man," insisted Gabe.
"Someone you know?" asked Celeste.
"Someone we know," admitted Gabe. "How about you?"
"Also someone we know," she answered.
"Someone from the cruise?" Gabe asked.
"We haven't had sex with any other couples," reminded Celeste.
"What prompted you to explore this topic now?" Gabe asked.
"I was thinking about how much having sex with other partners has improved our sex together and when I began to fantasize about it, I wondered if it was time to repeat the experience."
"Interesting," commented Gabe. "I assume that you were thinking that the first thing led to the other and without the first thing the other might lose its intensity."
"Yeah," said Celeste. "Is sex with others required for continued fantastic sex with each other?"
"Are you suggesting we seek additional partners?" asked Gabe.
"I think so," admitted Celeste.
"A couple from the cruise?" asked Gabe.
"That's difficult," observed Celeste. They're scattered all over the country. The distances are difficult to overcome on a regular basis. Except, maybe Steve and Marion."
"Steve and Marion are close?" asked Gabe.
"Not too close," informed Celeste. "About two to two and a half hours drive time away."
"That's not too far for a long weekend," said Gabe.
"Should I call them?" asked Celeste.
"Why not?" Gabe asked. "I liked Marion even if she's older and I assume you were okay with Steve."
"More than just okay," admitted Celeste. "Even if he fell asleep prematurely."
"And you've fantasized about him?" asked Gabe.
"I have," answered Celeste. "And you've fantasized about Marion?"
"Guilty," said Gabe.
"I can't believe how much we're on the same page so often," stated Celeste.
Saturday morning, Celeste called Marion. Marion was delighted to hear from her. "I've wanted to call you several times but lost my nerve each time," admitted Marion.
"I think we may have the same reason for wanting to call each other," said Celeste.
"Our cruise experiences?" asked Marion.
"That's it," confirmed Celeste. "Would you and Steve like to get together with us? Maybe for a long weekend?"
"We would," said Marion. "I don't even have to ask Steve. How do we make it happen?"
"We're less than a hundred and fifty miles away from each other," stated Celeste. "Less than three hours drive time."
"Your place or ours?" asked Marion.
"Either works for us," said Celeste. "I should warn you, that we live in a one bedroom apartment. Things might be a little crowded."
"Our place then," said Marion. "We have a four bedroom house and the kids are away at school."
Celeste and Marion settled on a weekend two weeks away, Friday and Saturday nights, all day Saturday and most of Sunday.
Gabe and Celeste's fantasies were focused on Steve and Marion until the designated weekend arrived. They both left work early on Friday and were on the way to Steve and Marion's by four in the afternoon. The plan was to have dinner with them with dancing afterward, all leading to time as mixed pairs later.
Celeste drove and made record time on the way to Steve and Marion's. The greetings between the couples were warm and prolonged. They went to dinner at an Italian restaurant and dancing at a small, edge of town, pub and dance club where the drinks were heavy, the lights were low and the music erotic. Marion danced with Gabe and made her intentions known. They danced at the darkest corner of the dance floor where Marion removed her panties and encouraged him to explore. Gabe resisted her attempts to open his fly and expose his erection, promising to reveal all to her later. Never the less, Marion managed to get her hand inside his pants and stroke him almost to the point of embarrassment.
"Damn, I've missed you," she whispered in his ear.
Celeste was having better luck with Steve. He discretely followed her to the ladies room and they reconnected behind the locked door.
