The sights. The pounding sounds. The glow of the bar. The DJ bouncing his head in the booth on stage. Bethany didn't know how much she missed the club scene until she was back here.
When Denarius said he had a surprise for their anniversary, this was not what she was expecting. He told her to dress for a night out, but she expected the local bar in her small town. When she saw that he had picked out such a short skirt and laid it on the bed for after her shower, she thought it was too sexy for their usual haunts. She had left her short hair straightened and did her makeup with smokey eyes and her darkest red lipstick. Now, though, being here, she thought that she wasn't sexy enough. The skirt and the spaghetti-strap top without a bra were fine, but her body couldn't possibly compare to all these 20-somethings in this college area of the city.
She knew she was still sexy, for being over 40 at least. But where she used to be a shade over 110lbs, fit and tight in all the right places, now she had more of the mom-bod, a little belly paunch, her boobs sagging just a bit from breastfeeding their daughter years ago. Her hips and ass were a bit wider than they used to be (which Denarius always said was sexier--what was it about black guys and big asses?). Stretch marks, cellulite, a few facial wrinkles, and a very light peppering of gray hairs...she was feeling her age now more than ever.
Denarius always kept the passion alive in their relationship. Having their daughter slowed things down for about the first 10 years, but after that, there were sleepovers and parental visits, and her daughter loved video games...so they found more time for intimacy. She needed it. She needed to feel him. She needed to hear him say that he loved her, desired her, wanted to fuck her. She had questioned it after the weight gain from childbearing, but now she didn't question that Denarius was hers. And she was his.
This would be their 20th wedding anniversary. Denarius had promised something amazing, and he had delivered. It was a 90-minute car ride to the university side of the city from their suburb, but it was well worth the wait. A very modern take on a club--called The Panther Prowl, after the school mascot--with blue lights and shiny, black tile everywhere. The dark, stained-wood dance floor was only barely illuminated by the multi-colored spinning lights and strobe lights. It was huge, and loud, and Bethany was ready to cut loose with the love of her life. Already a few drinks in, she didn't care what these college kids thought of her lily-white ass shaking on the dance floor. All she saw was Denarius staring at her with hungry eyes.
He looked like a lion ready to pounce on one of the females to prove his dominance. God those brown eyes could make her feel warmth all the way in her groin. They looked almost black now, in the darkness. Almost evil. Mysterious and threatening, in a good way. His dark black skin was so beautiful in the neon lights from the bar. He had worn one of his Oxford shirts he kept for special occasions. His work in construction kept him trim and muscular. He had the sleeves of his shirt rolled up to show off some of his rippling arms now. The arms that could lift her off her feet. Arms that could hold her down. So many images running through her head right now as she danced. Her panties were already wet thinking about what she might be in for later when they got home.
When one of her favorite songs came on, a little bit of a slow, sexy jam that mandated a little grinding, she beckoned him over to her. He stood up, his 6'3" frame dwarfing her 5'4" self, and he sauntered over to her. He moved and swayed to the music (some stereotypes exist for a reason. Denarius had perfect rhythm and danced in ways that always made Bethany flush with imaginative delights.) When he finally reached her, she had turned around to let him wrap himself around her and grind himself into her body. She could already feel the hardness through his dress slacks. God, she felt so hott and horny. Surrounded by all these college kids, and just his touch could make them all disappear like it was just them and the music. His hands felt all over her: from her hips, pulling her back into him; around to her belly, slipping just under the silky fabric of her top to find skin; even wrapping around her shoulders and collarbone so he could kiss the back of her neck a little. That touch of his lips energized her fantasies. She was gonna fuck him until he couldn't walk when they got home.
When the song was over, she turned to face him. She could see the DJs fancy lights flickering in his eyes, but to her it looked like a fire, a burning desire. Like a little devil deep inside telling Denarius to do lustful things. She was sure that if Denarius was looking into her eyes as deeply, he would see her devil telling her the same things. She stood on her tiptoes and drew him down for a deep kiss, completely ignoring the next song that came on.
After a wonderful kiss, she pulled him down so she could speak and he could hear her. "I'm so glad we came!" she said. "I want another cocktail, and I want to dance more, but when we get home, you're gonna get the fucking of your life."
She barely heard his deep voice, even with him almost yelling. "Is that right?" he asked. "We'll see about that." The fuck did that mean? She was still questioning what his motives for saying that were as she worked her way through the throng of bodies back to the bar. She ordered her favorite drink, Sex on the Beach, and waited. Denarius slid into the space to her right. She was working herself into being upset over what he had said. Were they not going to make love when they got home? Then what the hell was all of this for? All the grinding and the sweat was an aphrodisiac for her, and he knew it....was he just going to leave her to handle that on her own? It's not like Cindy was home to prevent the extracurricular activities. Did he plan on getting super drunk? What? The? FUCK?
She grabbed her drink and quickly moved away from the bar to find a stool by one of the tall tables. She was getting angrier by the moment. So when Denarius came to stand behind her, she didn't acknowledge him much, just took a sip of her drink.
