"Dude, you gotta check out that club I've been telling you about! It totally transformed Steph's sex drive. Trust me, you won't regret it."
Ray and I had just finished our last league game of the season at the gym, and our last league game together in general. He was moving to Houston next week for a promotion at work. As goes with general locker room talk, I was complaining to him again about my lackluster sex life recently. Abby and I had been together for 17 years, and while our relationship overall was great, our bedroom life had fallen off the last few years. Our "horniness" schedules never seemed to coincide, and within the last few months we were down to having sex 2-3 times per month. Ray had been telling me about the local swingers club he and his wife Stephanie had been going to, and I do have to say it sounded amazing. According to him, his sex life had never been better, and his wife had become insatiable.
That night, I was cleaning the kitchen when Abby walked in. I definitely don't mind doing my fair share around the house, but I know how much my wife hates doing dishes. This is usually my first attempt at helping to set the mood. It didn't work though. Abby rinsed out her wine glass, and immediately went back to her laptop, obviously stressed over a pending project. As we were getting ready for bed that evening, three weeks since the last time we had sex, I figured I had nothing to lose.
"I feel like we're in a rut, Abby"
"What do you mean?", she replied.
"I mean our sex life." I said. "We haven't fooled around in 3 weeks. And I have to let you know how crazy I'm going. I know the timing doesn't always work out, but you need to know that I picture us doing it every time I check out your ass. It's like a prison for me."
That was the truth. Abby was hot. Amazing ass. Amazing tits. In general, I would say that we were a very attractive couple, but Abby was next level to me. At 38 years old, I could honestly say I had never found her more attractive. Her breasts had stayed incredibly perky for years, but now more recent, they were the perfect set of tear drop double Ds. She wasn't a gym rat by any means, but somehow her ass was just perfectly plump. She also was getting just a few gray hairs, that to me, made her even sexier.
Abby glanced over at me, somewhat sheepishly "Well thank you for the compliments, and I'm sorry things haven't been like normal. I feel like we get busy with life, and it sex gets pushed to the wayside. I actually came to bed last Tuesday night and was super horny but you were already passed out. I probably should have woken you up."
Tuesday is league day, so usually I'm in bed pretty early those nights. That comment definitely made me feel my age though.
"What are you thinking? We can run to the sex shop this weekend. Maybe gets some toys and lingerie? We could dedicate the whole weekend to spending time with each other."
My stomach turned a bit, as I was nervous. Abby was no prude, but going from sex 3 times a month to checking out a swingers club, that seemed like a stretch.
"This might sound crazy. Actually, it is crazy, but Ray won't shut up about the local sex club. He and Steph started going last year, and he swears it has completely changed their sex life."
Abby started giggling. This was a good sign. I thought she might be upset.
"You too, huh? Stephanie told me the same thing 2 months ago. I jokingly asked her what she was going to do when she moved and she just told me she was working on that solution."
"Really?" I said. "That's funny. Ray mentioned it to me last year, but has really been pushing it for the last two months as well. I just avoided it because how awkward would that be to see them there?"
"Yeah, as much as I love Ray and Steph, I certainly don't want them involved in our sex life. Now that they are leaving, though..." Abby trailed off, looking me right in the eyes. Was this going to happen? I had a serious case of butterflies. That night we did end up having sex, and it was incredible. At that point, it was exactly what I thought we needed. Little did I know how different our lives would be three weeks from now.
"Well man, are you excited for the move?" I asked Ray
"At first it was hard to think about giving up what we had built here, and all our friends, but come to find out, we have some good contacts in Houston already. Stephanie is really looking forward to that, and obviously the promotion and pay can't be beat." Ray said. "Not excited about the heat all summer, but hey..."
"I hear ya. That will be rough." I quipped. "So, um, I had a good chat with Abby last night. I just laid it out there and mentioned your club. She didn't slap me. I think we are going Saturday night."
"Wow!" Ray exclaimed. "That's exciting man. But, I'm just letting you know, Friday night is the night to go. Way better crowd. Trust me. Too bad we are leaving early Saturday morning, or we would totally go with you! Your life is about to get way more interesting my friend"
I was secretly glad that they wouldn't be there. I felt like the chances of Abby and I actually playing that first night were slim to none. More of an exploratory night than anything.
"Yeah, ok. We can probably make Friday night work if you say it's worth it." I replied
"Trust me." Ray replied
Friday afternoon rolled around and I couldn't concentrate. I ended up leaving work around 3:30 because I was basically useless. When I got to the house, Abby was already there. It seemed she had the same predicament.
"I'm excited, but I feel like there's a weird amount of pressure around tonight. Steph has texted me three times telling me how great tonight is going to be. It's a bit cryptic. I'm not sure what your thoughts are, but I feel like we commit to staying for at least an hour, but we don't try to force anything the first night. Steph didn't seem to like that comment though."
"Definitely. We go, look around, have some drinks, and make a decision on what we think based on our comfort level. Hell, we might be the old, gross people there that no one wants to fuck." I said.
Abby laughed. "I'm pretty sure that's not the case. I'm pretty sure we will see plenty of those couples, but hey, if they're having fun, more power to them."
We walked in to the club, and I personally felt like a million bucks. Abby looked stunning in her little black dress. I've never felt insecure in the looks department, but tonight, she would definitely be the draw, I was pretty certain of that. The entire environment was very interesting. The parking lot was packed. What we didn't know though, was there was a hotel attached to the club. Condoms were in a bowl at the exit. They had made hooking up as easy as possible. That made me laugh to myself. Sex is a powerful thing. The bar was packed, but I squeezed in and ordered drinks. As Abby and I scanned the crowd, it was a bit underwhelming. Ray had assured us that Friday was the night to go. If that was the case, I was certainly glad we didn't go Saturday. Like Abby said earlier, more power to them, but these couples weren't really going to get our juices flowing.
Abby and I stood next to each other, somewhat awkwardly in no mans land. Not quite on the dance floor, not quite at the bar. A number of couples seemed to be checking us out. I felt like we had "newb" written on our forehead. Abby and I occasionally glanced at each other, sipping our drinks uncomfortably, while slightly swaying to the music. It was like an "adult" version of prom.
