Kevin and I had drifted into a way of life where we were as good as separated. He was now almost permanently in the Far East and I was pretty sure from what I heard from people who worked for him that he was living with some young bimbo out there. He phoned now and then and sent the occasional brief email and came home almost monthly but rarely stayed more than a week or so before hopping back on a plane to Singapore or Sydney.
Whilst obviously, on the one hand this disappointed me it did on the other let me get on with my new life. And much of that now revolved around my affair with Amanda. As she was divorced with no children and with me having an absentee husband, it was fairly easy for us to carry on with it. We'd meet at least weekly with one or the other of us often staying overnight at the other's house where we'd sleep together. I particularly enjoyed the intimacy, closeness and tenderness of that as goodly parts of our relationship were quite the opposite. Amanda was a domineering woman verging on, but not quite, being a dykey lesbian. Much of the time I felt as if I were her plaything as without doubt I was nearly always sexually, submissive to her. I rarely initiated anything and nearly always I was on the bottom when we had sex. I can't in all honesty say that I objected very forcibly or that I resisted her in those areas for deep down I enjoyed her treating me like that.
However, that part of her made when we slept together always naked and usually in each other's arms so much more wonderful. I knew full well that my thinking and behaviour as well as my strong attraction to her were total contradictions but then, where love is concerned, most women are like that and I think that I had fallen in love with her! Whether that was true love or a convenient one as a substitute for that I had lost or, had been taken away by Kevin and had been near with Jessy, I couldn't be sure. However, as that and his absence made it easier for Amanda and I to indulge our attraction and express our feelings to each other we saw each other more frequently, did more things together and, for all intents and purposes, we were almost living together.
"We must go on a date together Jay?" Amanda told me on the phone.
"Where to?"
"Well there's only really one place for two lessies like us, Soho."
"What do you mean where in Soho? And by the way I am not a les as, in case I hadn't mentioned it to you, I still fuck my husband......... when I see him that is," I grinned.
As both of us travelled into central London by tube I met her at Leicester Square station having agreed that we'd go back to my place by cab after the date as it was nearer and far less expensive than hers would be. I was surprised at how well Amanda knew her way around the narrow streets of Soho behind Leicester Square and Piccadilly Circus. She pointed out a couple of bars in Old Compton Street that she said we might visit later explaining that they didn't really get going until ten or so and lead us to an Italian restaurant in Wardour street.
She seemed to know the staff in the restaurant and some of the, mainly, female diners with who she exchanged pleasantries and to who I was introduced. They were quite a glamorous and interesting bunch and, in a strange way sexy, I suppose. Both in the restaurant where we had a lovely and romantic dinner as we played footsy under the table, and later in the pub or club, I wasn't sure what it was other than being a clear lesbian joint, I felt a little odd for I assumed most of the people I was introduced to were aware that Amanda was lesbian and that by association I must be too. But then I didn't know any of them, I didn't move in their circles so it would be unlikely any of them would know or tell anyone I knew. Actually I got quite a buzz out of it.
At the club, Amanda pulled me onto the dance floor and we moved around to a couple of quite fast numbers before the DJ put on a smoochy slow one. I could hardly believe the way she totally unselfconsciously took me into her arms and danced with me in a manner that could convey nothing other than a sexual or, at least, very intimate relationship between us. I was embarrassed at first but, when I saw several more couples dancing as closely as us, I got over that and began to feel grateful to her that she wanted to show people she knew how close she was to me. I put my arms around her neck and pressed my breasts and tummy against her and loved the feel of her hands stroking my hair and then the touch of her tongue in my ear. She squirmed herself against me and then kissed me full on the lips before running her hands up and down my body. It was probably about the most erotic dance I'd ever had.
Earlier in the restaurant after the first bottle of wine she'd stared at my boobs, which wasn't anything unusual but this time it was a little different as she said with a big smile, "The bra, they're almost banned where we're going," she'd smiled. I looked more closely and saw that through her black top that was made of see through net I could see her boobs and nipples. She was wearing very, very tightly fitted thin, white trousers under which it looked as if she was naked.
"I can't go without one Mand, they'll wobble around all over the place," I said when we were outside a while and the bottle of wine later.
