Laura's POV
Not even 48 hours had passed since Jen and I had decided that we would open up our marriage and my life already seemed to be going in a totally unexpected direction. It was Monday morning, but unlike any other weekday in the past 3 years I had not gone into the office. In fact, I was not planning on ever going back there. I had sent an email informing of my resignation just yesterday, somewhere around 8:00 pm. Surely it seemed a bit unprofessional to announce my resignation like that but I had decided that I didn't owe those bastards anything after what I'd learn was going to happen to my branch. I did feel bad for some of the people that were under me and looked up to me but I had needed to make this decision for my own health. I was planning on texting or calling most of them to check in and let them know it wasn't my intention to abandon them; however, I honestly had more pressing issues on my mind.
I was sitting in a café that was a couple of streets down from my apartment waiting for my best friend to arrive. My best friend, Valentina, who I had known since college, was the very first person I wanted to talk to about the changes that would be happening in my relationship. I texted her yesterday evening to ask her to meet me here for breakfast because I had something I needed to tell her. She had responded right away that she'd be coming and even asked for a little preview of what I wanted to talk about but I didn't answer as I was too busy at the moment.
Well, it wasn't that there was anything in particular that I had needed to get done. Actually, it was just that I had spent pretty much all day yesterday with Jen and it had been wonderful. I felt like we truly reconnected in a way that we hadn't been able to do in years. We spent all day talking about our week and each other, it was just like it used to be before our slump.
Okay, so it wasn't exactly the way it used to be. In fact, it was already the most bizarre day in our whole relationship by far but in a good way. Most of our talk from yesterday had been an assessment of all the people that we knew were good prospects to try our new open marital status with. We'd started with some very hypothetical prospects in the morning. Like asking each other if we'd hook up with Hailee Steinfeld or Cate Blanchett if we had the chance. We even talked about a cute Latina girl that had once worked cleaning our apartment and an older teacher that we both had had during college.
As we got more comfortable discussing the subject we began to talk about people that we knew personally. Valentina's name was one of the first ones to come up and I had to admit, it made a lot of sense. Jen knew Valentina and I had hooked up on more than a few occasions while we were in college and before I met Jen. She was pretty hot and was married herself. Her wife, Nicole, was almost as close to Jen and I as Val and we loved her to death. We had been on numerous double dates over the years and we knew they were amazing beings. Jen and I were sure that they were by far the safest option since we knew them so well and were sure that they could handle everything very well.
We talked about some of the other girls in our friend group and actually realized that we were on the same page about most of them. For her part, Jen had mentioned another couple she knew from work who might be interested and said she'd try talking to them this week. The couple's names were Louise and Donna, and Jen had met them because Donna worked for the same newspaper she did. I had actually met them once at their newspaper's Christmas dinner last year and I had to admit they were both really hot. They were both older than us, Donna was 47 and Louise was 45, but they still kept themselves in amazing shape and looked stunning together.
Donna was a redhead, which already made her extremely attractive to me. She was also taller than I was, myself being 5 feet 10 inches. It was uncommon for me to find women taller than me, but this woman had certainly been at least two inches taller than me. Her body was curvy in all the right places and her long legs seemed to go on for miles. On the other hand, her girlfriend Louise could not have been more than 5 feet 7 inches and had long brown hair. Now, I'm sure her smaller build helped her cause but she was even bustier and curvier than Donna. Louise not only had what appeared to be a bigger and firmer pair of boobs but her hips were to die for, she also had a huge ass, just a little too fat. Her skin was not as light as Donna's and she actually seemed to be sporting a nice tan.
I was daydreaming about the two beauties that my gorgeous wife would be trying to set us up with when I saw my best friend walking down the street to where I was sitting. Valentina was Mexican and had beautiful dark skin that went along well with her curvy brown hair. Her eyes were a deep dark brown, she had a big nose and bow-shaped lips. She was slightly shorter than me at 5 feet 9 inches but had the most athletic body I had ever seen. She had a pair of small round breasts and...
Okay, perhaps I had been a little horny since Saturday so enough about women's bodies. I gave Val a wide smile as I waved her over and she smiled brightly at me as she sat down on the chair in front of me. "Hey girl, how are you doing honey?" She began excitedly.
"I'm great, Val, thank you for meeting me here, how are Nicole and Lily?" Lily was their 8 year old daughter.
"No problem girl. Lily is just growing up into a beautiful and smart young girl. As for Nicole, well...," she trailed off with a teasing smile on her face, "Let's just say that her private birthday surprise last week left her gasping for breath."
We both giggled at her statement as I teasingly commented , "Oh, Val you naughty little slut."
Her smile turned into one of pride and she answered as if showing off, " Trust me Laur, you don't know the half of it." We laughed again at that for a while before she asked, "So, how is everything with you and Mrs Jen, any new promotions at work I should know about?"
"Promotions? When did you stopped giving me the third degree every time we met so you'd know everything about my sex time?" I asked while dramatically pretending to be offended by her.
"Honey, don't take this the wrong way but yours and Jen's sex life is even more dead than Lily's latest goldfish," she mocked me.
I feigned a laugh as I answered, "Very funny, Val. Well, that is actually what I called you here for. Jen and I have just decided to open up our marriage," I finally told her while wearing a proud grin on my face.
"Yeah right," Val responded with a doubtful look, "Little Jenny would never let you go through with something like that."
"Actually, it was Jen's idea." Val almost spat back her coffee as I continued, "She said she felt we needed to do something different to freshen our marriage and that she had actually been having this fantasy for a while."
"Oh my god, you are not kidding. Who would have thought miss goody two shoes had it in her to be so dirty," Val said while biting her lower lip.
"Hey, that is my wife you are talking about!" I said with fake anger, I knew Val cared for Jen and loved to tease me about her.
