(
Note to readers:
Welcome back to the orgy at the home of Sally and Jack. The participants are, on the whole, okay with their spouses banging beyond matrimony, while they do the same--but humans have emotions. Jealousy can arise for any number of reasons, even within a secure relationship. Fiona and Larry describe how they cope with it. As with the other "6-Level" stories, this one stands alone, but is about the same collection of characters. Details of the sex are in the tags. Enjoy!)
***
I'm going to write something about the orgy we attend, but first I need to see if this two-person input works. Are you there, Honey?
I'm here. Do you read me? Over.
Loud and clear! Well, clear anyway, the words on the screen aren't 'loud.' So the networking arrangement that 'Steffi' and 'Bob' set up is working.
Anyway. Hello, World! I'm supposed to call myself 'Fiona,' and my husband has the code name 'Larry.' Oooo, this seems like a spy movie, doesn't it, Honey?
I think it's more like superheroes, with secret identities. But I grew up on comic books. Funny, neither one of us says it's like porno, even though this is all about you and me having sex with other people.
To me, what we do doesn't seem like porno. We get together with friends, and have fun, which just happens to include sex. And for you and me, it's even like therapy.
Because it's supposed to get us over our jealousy.
'Supposed to?' You think that isn't working?
I still have a problem. Not while we're there, doing it, and 'doing' our friends. It's great then, and I feel fine. But there are times when I get jealous. When I'm alone, doing something ordinary, like if I'm at work. It flashes into my mind that my wife screws other men! For a few seconds, I hate that, and them, and even you. But eventually I shake it off. No, I don't hate you then for real, Babe. It's my gonads talking.
You shake it off, so our therapy works.
But it keeps happening. I'll recall you banging and blowing these guys, or I wonder what you did when you went away to a guest room with Hugh.
Hugh likes to sneak off like that. I won't say why, he has reasons for not having sex in the living room, because other people could watch. Would you feel better if I stopped doing that?
Look, it's not about me feeling better, I have to deal with it. You don't have to stop anything, at the orgy. Besides, when Hugh is in a guest room, I usually bang his wife.
Conchita really likes you.
I don't know about that. We have good sex together, but that's all it is.
See, this is where my side of the therapy comes in. I get jealous sometimes during the orgy, but not any other time. I feel secure and confident about my husband, when we're in our normal life, and how he feels about me.
Even when I'm angry about you getting porked by other men?
We should explain to everyone that Larry and I already know about our jealousy, and how we're dealing with it. In fact, Sally, who hosts the orgy, asked us to write this. It's part of what she and Jack are doing, posting what they've learned about group sex, so other people can benefit from our experience.
Since you mentioned Jack, I just ran a test in my head. I recalled him banging you, and played my head-video of that. Turns out, that didn't actually bug me much.
I think that's because you and I are 'together' now, although we're writing instead of talking, in different rooms but under the same roof. You've said that your problem is when you're alone.
I guess. Maybe. It's true that when it's just you and me having sex, at home, either I don't think about you at the orgy, or a brief flash doesn't affect me.
We haven't mentioned this yet. Jack is Sally's husband. They own the house where we meet. The living room is huge, and it's really fun when we're all playing there together, on sofas and floor cushions. But it's easiest, for me, when I don't actually see what Larry is doing. Not just what you do with the other women, Honey, but what you say to each other. You smile and laugh, or moan, and it makes me think you should do that with me instead.
Should I start using a guest room? Take Conchita there?
No! That might be worse!
Somebody else? Amy?
Can we talk write about something else?
Okay, I don't want to trigger you. But maybe this is a new subject for 'therapy.' I'm putting that in ironic quotes, because we don't have a therapist. We're making this stuff up, to see what works.
I'll think about this. Meanwhile, we should do what the other people in our group have done, and write about sex we've had at the orgy. Reading that is so much better than porno, because it's about our friends. They're so open about sharing their bodies, and giving pleasure, and writing how it feels when they have orgasms. I really want to write that! And this might be good for your therapy, Honey. You've already heard how the sex at the orgy feels for me, because I've pillow-talked to you about it. Seeing it in words on a screen might take you another step.
But what about you? Will you be okay with seeing words on a screen, about me fucking other women at the orgy?
I'm a little worried about that. How I'll feel. But I need the therapy too.
How about this. As one of us writes, if the other gets upset, barge in and write about that.
Yes. That sounds like a good idea.
I think you're more than a little worried.
Maybe. But we need to do this. Can I start?
Yeah, go ahead. By the way, I can hear from the monitors that the kids are sound asleep.
Okay. But I may have to explain some things first, if people haven't seen the other posts.
The orgy might seem a little odd, because we do this gradually. There are six levels, kind of like in a computer game. Some people don't want to do everything. Some couples think that they should only do real sex within their marriage. So you can fool around for a while, like making out, or dancing dirty, and then go home with your spouse. Then maybe the sex you have at home will be really wild, because you got all excited, but didn't actually do anything wrong. If that's what you agreed about.
I hope that makes sense. Here's an example, about one of the couples who go home early. Jack gave them the fake names 'Lindsay' and 'Bennett' when he wrote about them. (Lindsay is a woman, by the way. We're all man-and-woman couples, and most of us are over forty.) Bennett and Lindsay stay through Level Four, which is when we all get naked, but we don't do 'real' sex yet. But men play with Lindsay's nipples, and clitoris, and finger into her vagina. The women with really big breasts use them to masturbate Bennett's penis. After that excitement, and their orgasms, Bennett and Lindsay go home together.
Next is Level Five, which is when everyone can have oral sex. After that is Level Six, the moment most of us have been waiting for, which is when penises can be welcomed into vaginas. (Or even buttholes, but people don't do that very much at the orgy.) From Level Five on, everyone uses condoms. We want the sex to be safe.
Also, there's a bar in the living room, and Sally makes drinks, but nobody drinks to excess. The gradual move from one level to the next allows people to shed their inhibitions.
I'm relieved that Fiona can drop her inhibitions, and stay sober. So I have no problem with what she does to progress through the early levels--which she didn't describe. Level One is just conversation, maybe setting up later action. In Level Two, we make out, fully-dressed. In Level Three, we shed outer clothes. In Level Four, we go nude. For Level Three, nearly everyone stays in whatever underwear they have on. Fiona, however, goes into a bathroom and changes into a two-piece swimsuit.
Can I really be the only person in the world who feels this way? I've always felt that other people shouldn't see me in underwear. Definitely not my kids, so I'm never seen like that around the house. I accept that Larry sees me that way, but that's only when I'm on my way to nude, or maybe some sexy lingerie--seen only by him, in our closed bedroom. People in general, though? If they see me in underwear, there's something wrong. I don't ever let bra straps show beyond my clothes, and I can't understand women who are okay with that.
A swimsuit, now, is more like real clothes, for certain places in public: a swimming pool, or a beach. I have plenty of nice swimsuits, even some bikinis, which I wear at the orgy if I think I'm not pudgy that day. The men can kiss and caress my bare midriff, just like they can with the other women, when they're in underwear. But I feel like I'm well dressed, even while that's happening. It matters to me.
But then, in Level Four, you lose the swimsuit, and you're naked, like everybody else.
I don't think this is what we should write about. Do you want me to mention your bald spot?
Point taken. Please resume.
So. I think what happened last month is a good example of how we deal with jealousy. As we got to Level Four, Lester and Millie came up to Larry and me. They don't get to the orgy very often, because they have young kids. I know what it's like, trying to find sitters. So this couple did the active-consent thing of asking if they could have fun with us. They aren't what you'd call good-looking, but it's not like Larry and I are Hollywood material. So we paired off with them. My husband and Millie went to a loveseat, and Lester and I stretched out on floor cushions.
Lester kept his glasses on, which gets in the way of great kissing, but he says he wants to see all the naked women in the room, in detail. That definitely had him erect! But it was Level Four, so I didn't take him too far. Just some light stroking around his crotch.
This wasn't the first time we'd played around, but this time Lester asked in detail about what I like. And not just in Level Four, but for the rest of the night. So I told him, and asked him to inform me in the same detail for him.
