My wife, Christina, like many women, doesn't like to verbalize a lot about sex. Role-play is different.
She hadn't mentioned her young colleague, Rick, for several weeks after graphically revealing her most intimate thoughts concerning him in an X-rated role-play. I'd tried to draw Christina into talking about him, or including him in another role-play after finding out the extent of her fantasies, however it was clear she'd revealed, much more than she was comfortable with. For several weeks, Rick no longer existed.
However, after showing her this role-play just as the 'office Christmas party' season was kicking into gear, she not only edited it, but acted it out with me, confirming what she thought MIGHT happen to an unattended professional (married) woman at one of these parties.
This role-play left me with three open questions. If Rick was the object of her fantasies, would she really prepare for the situation like this? Would she let herself be drawn into this situation? And if so, would she act on her fantasies if a real opportunity presented itself?

8:40 P.M. 'Locker-room Talk'
"Wow!" was all Paula could say as she watched her colleague, Christina, zip herself into the French-made corset style halter-top.
Christina cinched up, then re-tied the bow in the small of her back, simultaneously emphasizing her bust-line, the delicious set of curves that started in her waistline and lead downward, snugly following the tight fitting black slacks that along the contours of her ass...
"Loaded for bear tonight, aren't we?" Paula giggled as she wiggled into a black bikini style halter, which she 'covered' with a semi-transparent blouse.
"We only really have a few genuinely free nights a year, might as well be ready." Christina smiled, pushing her breasts up under the tight top – as high as she dared. Her husband had purchased the designer top for her in Paris, for their wedding anniversary. But the most important feature of the top – at this moment – was that it was one of the few she owned in which she felt comfortable without a bra... Still, she wondered if she was really ready to wear a sexy top like this in public, especially tonight...
Paula picked up on her hesitation, as she followed Christina's gaze to the tote bag that contained the various gear Christina had brought for the days events. Paula guessed that Christina – like herself – had 'less sexy' clothing options she could be donning, now that the afternoon's activities were over.
The group had just enjoyed an active afternoon of basketball, followed by a steam bath and a catered meal. Now, everyone was changing, getting ready to go out dancing. Neither Christina nor Paula EVER got to go dancing, as their husbands weren't keen on that scene, and both women – who were – felt keyed up and exited by the opportunity!
"Trying to impress Rick?" Paula arched her eyebrows in mock disapproval, "I SAW the way you guys were all over each other on the court – seemed pretty physical out there."
Christina couldn't help smiling at her friend's teasing. Everyone in their group had turned out to be equally bad at basketball – that's why they'd chosen it, that is, a sport none of them had ever seriously played. However, that hadn't stopped Christina and Rick from aggressively 'covering' each other during the game – at least that's what she told herself they'd been doing.
Something about Rick had always kind of got to Christina. She'd secretly hoped he'd show up for the party, and when she'd first seen him, she couldn't help wonder if the opportunity to get to know him a bit better might present itself. Although he didn't work directly with Christina, they bumped into each other from time to time, and when they did, he usually inspired the same kinds of thoughts – it was hard not to get lost in his deep, dark eyes...
When he'd ended up standing next to her – on the opposite team in their basketball game – clad only on a pair of gym shorts, Christina thought her eyes were going to pop out! Rick's shirtless 'uniform' confirmed what she'd always imagined his upper body HAD to look like, that is nicely shaped and muscular from years of participation in high-level competition.
As for his lower body...
"So he's really got to you, eh?" Paula snickered, realizing that she'd caught Christina in the middle of a daydream.
Christina blushed, not really knowing how to reply.
"Well, we're about to find out!" Paula laughed, both women zipping up their bags and headed out to the door to the chartered taxi bus that would take them downtown.
11:50 P.M. 'Ladies Room Talk'
"So, is Rick going to let you dance with anyone else?" giggled Paula as she and Christina walked into the restroom.
"Is it that obvious? He IS a great dancer..." Christina sighed.
"Do you mean is it obvious that a stud like him has zeroed in on you?"
"Do you think anyone else notices?"
"Who cares? Is he what YOU want? That's the real question. At the rate you two've been 'becoming acquainted' he's going to be making his move any time now. You know what CAN happen at these Christmas parties, right?"
Christina had always kept her feelings for Rick professionally concealed. There was no possibility of really discussing him with her friends, so she'd become comfortable with the occasional flirting or vague allusion that characterized their occasional, chance meetings. Anything beyond that would have been far too concrete for Christina...
But the physical events of today, followed by the sexually charged energy of the hotel's disco, had found them most definitely 'paired up' for the evening. She saw herself blush in the mirror as she realized she didn't really mind. After all, it was only a party...
