This is the prequel to "A Little Help". I was inspired by readers saying it was clearly a set-up. That got me thinking: What if it was planned all along?
It was Saturday night, and I had been out at a show with some friends. It had been a great night. The show had been dreadful to the point of being hilarious. We were only there because one of my friend's friends was part of the crew.
Afterwards we went to a bar nearby and laughed ourselves to tears reciting the worst bits. The friend who was in the crew joined us, so we managed to keep it together for a while, but apparently she wasn't very impressed by the actors either! Before long she was laughing along with us. After an especially cutting impression of the Mayor: "I hereby declare as the a... um... the...? The Mayor! Of... this town!" someone at one of the other tables stomped out of the bar dramatically.
Me: "Who was that?"
Crew friend (shoulders shaking with giggles): "That would be the uh... the umm... the who is it again?? Oh The Mayor!"
The whole group fell apart laughing. Someone's drink got knocked over by a stray hand flailing in glee, the glass smashing on the floor. We were very apologetic, but the bartender decided it was time for our raucous group to leave. He was very polite about it. It was almost closing time anyway. A quick peck on the cheek from each of us and he was happy for us to come back another day.
My husband had his friend over for a couple of drinks while I was out. I didn't mind. We have all known each other for years. In fact, he'd been our best man a few years ago.
I didn't stagger in. It was more like a slightly (let's say 'oiled') glide into the house in my fanciest dress. We had all decided to dress up as much as possible for the evening. As much for the fun of it as for the show.
I knew his friend had feigned disinterest in me over the years, out of respect I imagine. But when I swished into the room all pretence was gone - his first reaction was "Oh damn!... Er, hi!"
I giggled at that, already too flushed with drink for the blush to show. My husband laughed too "Damn's right! Damn right. Damn is right damn... I think I need a water." and he staggered off to the kitchen. The bottles crowded on the coffee table explained the rest.
I was only half paying attention, as the "Oh damn" had piqued my interest. "So you like the dress then?" I smiled as I walked over to the sofa he was sitting on.
"Yeah, it's a beautiful dress!"
I did a little spin as he stared at me, to show off the skirt swishing.
"It really shows off, um, well what's- OH!"
As he spoke, the heel of my shoe caught the carpet. I lost my footing, stumbled, and landed backwards on the sofa. Luckily, most of my weight bounced on the seat next to him, but my legs were across his. I laughed in embarrassment, the giggles making me weak and unable to sit upright.
"I'm so sorry!" I blurted, still giggling.
"Don't worry about it!" he chuckled back.
I caught my breath and straightened up a little. My legs were still across his and I asked "What were you saying? It shows off what?"
He looked slightly embarrassed and said "Oh, I was saying it showed off, um, what's in the dress." and smiled a little smile at me as he looked into my eyes.
With half my attention on him gazing into me I couldn't process what he was saying. "What do you mean? What's in my dress?"
He put his hand on my bare leg. I hadn't realised the slit in the skirt of my dress had ridden up to my mid thigh, and his hand on my skin sent an unexpected jolt of warmth through my body.
"You."
I looked at his hand on my knee. I looked back into his eyes. For a moment all I could think about was his hand on my skin and how his lips would feel on mine. I shifted position, paused, and slapped him firmly on the shoulder. "Don't you smoulder at me!" I said playfully.
He burst out laughing. I smiled and pulled myself up off the sofa, using his offered hand for balance. I swished across the room to the door. I did a quick glance over my shoulder as I went through the doorway, to see if he was watching me. Sure enough, I caught the guilty glance upwards of his eyes, then walked smack into my husband coming the other way.
"Oh!" we both exclaimed, as his water splashed on the carpet. "Sorry hubs!" I said and gave him a quick kiss. "I'm going upstairs... Don't be long."
His eyebrows raised at that last comment, and I knew he was taking his turn watching my ass as I walked up the stairs.
In our room, I closed the door and finally took off my bra. The dress meant I had to wear one of my less favourite strapless ones, and I was glad to be rid of it.
I stopped in front of the mirror for a moment. I was reluctant to undress - it was so infrequent that I got to dress up nicely. It was a beautiful dress. And he was right. It was very complimentary to what was inside. I turned around and took my own turn checking out my ass. "Looking good." I thought to myself.
I could hear a laugh downstairs. Were they talking about me? A clink of glass. Either they were cleaning up (unlikely), or toasting something. A loud burp confirmed the latter. Almost certainly from my husband. More low chuckles and discussion. What were they talking about?
"I'll stay down here and watch some TV. Maybe have a nap."
"OK, I'll go upstairs and fuck your wife."
"Cool, see you in the morning."
I giggled at my silly imaginary conversation. Then a moment after, I heard the stairs creaking. I imagined what it would be like if our friend was the one coming up, like the daydream. I stood with my back to the door, just in front of the bed.
The door behind me opened. As footsteps entered the room I said "Wait there, and don't say anything." He closed the door in silence and waited.
Still with my back to the door, and probably my husband; I imagined it was his friend instead. I unzipped the dress down the back. With a little wiggle, I let the dress drop in a ring around my feet. I was just wearing my underwear and heels.
"What do you think of that ass now?" I thought to myself. I slowly bent down to take off each of my shoes. Making sure to show plenty of side boob, and probably a peek of my hard nipple from that angle.
I dropped the shoes to the side and stood upright again. Feeling his eyes on my hands as I stroked them down my sides until I reached my underwear. I slowly pulled the sides downwards, making sure to bend forwards as I did. Finally, I let it drop to the ground with my dress.
I pulled back the duvet and crawled on all fours to the far side of the bed. I slipped under the cover and said over my shoulder (without looking). "Turn the light off and join me."
I reached between my legs and started playing with myself. I was already slippery to the touch and warm. I could hear the sound of him taking off his clothes as I rubbed my clit and waited for him.
