After graduation, Marion had found a job at a cheese shop and bakery downtown. She liked it a lot. The downtown buzz was exhilarating to be surrounded by on her way to and from work. It was a short walk from her's and Jack's apartment on the top floor of an old house near the river. The people, the bustle, even the posters stuck to light posts, made her feel part of the bigger pulsating city.
She was looking in the window of a sex shop on her way back from lunch, wondering about the lingerie and the toys. A video in the window was titled "Party For Four!" and showed two happy, naked couples in a bed. She felt like a child staring in the window of a toy store, imagining the delights inside.
"Ooooh, being a naughty girl are you?" It was Lawrence, the old, gay man who made the specialty pastries for the shop. "Going to spice it up with you and your Handsome Jack, eh?" Lawrence grinned widely.
Marion smiled back. "Your never know, Lawrence. I'm always open to new things."
Lawrence laughed deeply. "Boys like their toys!"
Lawrence was another reason she liked the job. He was a very kind, old man and always slipping packages of his delicacies to Marion to take home at the end of the day. "You young lovers have a nice snack on these filled croissants tonight. They won't keep." He'd always wink and put a finger to his nose. "Don't let Ms. Hitler find out though, eh?"
Shannon came up beside her. "What'd you get?"
"I think some of the shrimp croissants."
"Oh nice!" Shannon replied. "I'll swap a couple of shrimp for some of the brie filled he gave me."
Shannon was another reason Marion liked working there. They got on well and Shannon liked to stop for a sociable drink after they closed the shop. Once in the pub, they opened the packets Lawrence had given them and traded items while waiting for their drinks.
Shannon was petite, with long wavy strawberry blonde hair, dangerously curving hips and a bust that strained the buttons on her blouses. Her blouse had some extra buttons undone, displaying a lot of delicious cleavage to the waiter. Marion was also wearing a low cut top which displayed her breasts admirably. The waiter seemed to spend a little extra time lingering over their order. When he left Shannon leered after him and giggled. "I'd like to give him a nice tip! Wouldn't you?"
"Hmmm" Marion said demurely. "Maybe."
"God" Shannon took a gulp of her wine. "I could do with a good boning right now!"
"What about Tony?" Tony was Shannon's husband.
Shannon made a face. "It's getting kind of stale with Tony. We need to spice it up."
"Well there's that sex shop on the corner. Maybe get some toys?"
Shannon sighed. "I've already worn out a couple of dildos. Tony won't even watch let alone drive it. He just goes to sleep. I was thinking of something more." Shannon twisted her wine glass on the table top thoughtfully. "You and Jack wouldn't want to swing with us would you?" She blushed with anxiety, fearful of rejection. "We could have a nice dinner, drink some wine, maybe dance a little and then go into the bedroom and ... you know..."
"Fuck each other's men until they're senseless?" Marion laughed.
Shannon laughed. "Well, yes. If you're going to put it that way. I suppose so."
"All on the same bed, where we can see each other? Or different rooms?"
Shannon paused. "I hadn't thought about that. Different rooms you think?"
Marion thought about it while she drank her wine. She knew Jack found Shannon pretty hot. Especially after that time they'd come home drunk and given him a double blow job followed by her watching Jack and Shannon enthusiastically fucking on the sofa. She found watching Jack fuck another woman as arousing as being watched herself. She wasn't sure what she thought about Tony though. He was OK in a non-descript way. She could understand Shannon wanting to spice it up with him. Maybe fucking Tony in front of Shannon and Jack would be a thrill too?
"Jack's a pervy horn dog" Marion concluded. "He's going to want to watch it all."
"So, you're place or ours?" Shannon asked.
"I guess that depends upon who has the bigger bed?"
"We've got a queen and silk sheets."
"Well, your place it is." Marion saluted with her wine glass and drained it off.
*******************
It was Friday night and Jack and Marion were getting ready to go out for dinner at Shannon and Tony's.
As instructed, Jack was dressed nicely in jacket and tie. "Is this a big party?" Jack asked through the bathroom door, behind which Marion was applying finishing touches.
"No. Just a foursome. Shannon wants to celebrate." Marion emerged from the bedroom in a waft of perfume. Jack whistled. Marion was sheathed in a low cut black dress, black stockings and four inch heels.
"Holy cow, honeybuns! Tony's going to be eating you up!"
Marion arched her eyebrows and smiled craftily. "Maybe that's the idea!"
When they arrived Shannon opened the door wearing a short red dress. "Hi guys! Come on in!" She kissed Marion on the cheek and gave Jack a peck full on the lips. "Thank you!" she crooned as she took the bottle of wine Jack held out. She turned to lead them into the living room and Jack and Marion could see that her dress was backless. Folds of fabric framed her naked back, descending down to the curve of her swaying buttocks. Jack's eyes followed, seeking a glimpse of bum cleavage.
Marion leaned in close and whispered in Jack's ear "Nice view, hmmmm?"
