Suzi was honestly trying to work. But a series of images kept popping into her mind, distracting her from the task at hand. Each time one of those mental pictures intruded, she’d force it from her head, and attempt to concentrate on her work. But every time she’d push one out, another one would take its place. Each time it happened, she could feel her nipples getting harder and harder; and feel moisture building between her legs.
If she wasn’t getting so sexually frustrated, she would think it funny. She was so in love with and turned on by her husband that it was absolutely ridiculous. All she had to do was think of making love to him (as in this instance) and she was so turned on that if he were there with her, he would have to beat her off with a stick.
Sighing, she grabbed her cigarettes and went outside. There was no way she was going to get any work done in her current state of mind, so she may as well grab a break while she was at it. She walked around the corner of the building to the smoking area and saw a couple of her “smoking buddies,” as she liked to call them. Maybe talking to them would get him off her mind.
“Hi there,” Donna called. “How are you doing today?”
Laughing, she answered honestly. “Frustrated.”
“What’s the matter?” Donna asked.
“Oh, nothing important… it’s just Blake.”
“Ohhhhh….” She said. “Is he being a butthead again?”
“No, nothing like that… it’s nothing he’s done; it’s just something that’s frustrating me.” She would have loved to have been completely honest with Donna, but she didn’t want to be too honest and give away too much information.
“Well, so how’s work going then?” Donna asked, trying to change the subject since it was obvious that was all the information she was going to get.
“It would be just fine if I could concentrate. But my mind keeps wandering and then I look down and can’t remember what the heck I was doing in the first place!”
Donna laughed. “I have days like that even when I’m not frustrated about something else!”
After talking to Donna for a while longer, while she finished her cigarette, Suzi felt a lot better. Nothing like talking to another woman to get her mind off sex! It was like taking a cold shower. She realized that some women got turned on by the thought of another woman, but not her. Suzi’s spine would cringe every time the subject was even mentioned. She just did not understand how another woman could possibly turn her on… a woman is missing the most important part!
She went back in and tried to work again. She was able to get some work done for a while, until the mental images started popping up again. She found herself starting to hyperventilate and got embarrassed. What if someone hears me? She thought. Just to be safe, she went into the bathroom and splashed some cold water on her face. Sure enough, she was flushed and as red as a beet. Looking in the mirror at herself, she got an idea. A wonderful, delicious, naughty idea.
Going back into the office, she peeked into her boss’s cubicle. Oh goody, she thought. He’s not here… I can use the phone. So she called him.
“Hi babe,” he said when he answered.
“Hi honey. How are you?” she asked, trying her best to sound simply cheerful and not mischievous, which she had a tendency to do without even knowing it.
“I’m fine. How are you feeling?”
“I’m alright. A little tired, but what else is new?”
He laughed, “Yeah, I guess you’re right. Did you need something?”
“Not really,” she said, crossing her fingers against the little white lie. “I just called to say hi and I love you and to check on you and the kids.”
“Actually, the kids have been pretty good today, surprisingly. Syrina didn’t give me a problem getting ready for school and Caitlin’s gone, and Lexi’s just on the floor playing right now.”
“Oh good. That means you can maybe get some of that housework done today?”
This time he heard the inflection in her voice. “Uh… yeah… why?”
Suzi couldn’t help but smile. “Oh, no reason… exactly.”
Having been married for almost 3 years, he knew better than that. “Come on… out with it. What’s up?”
Fighting back a laugh, she told him, “Well… let’s just say I have a surprise for you tonight after the kids go to bed. And I’d appreciate it if you’d get that house cleaned up. You know how much it stresses me out to see it a mess like that.”
“Okay,” he said, drawing the word out in such a way that she knew he was suspicious. But he apparently was willing to play along. “I’ll get the house cleaned up. Am I going to like this surprise?”
This time she couldn’t help but sound downright naughty as she said, “You like all my surprises, don’t you?”
“Well, yeah…” he said, sounding downright dubious.
“Well then… just get what I asked done and you’ll see tonight,” she said, a huge grin on her face.
“Okay… I’ll do that. By the way, what time are you coming home?”
“Oh, I think I’ll be a little late today.”
“You working late?” he asked.
“Uh… yeah,” she answered, crossing her other fingers against another little white lie. If she’d told him the truth, she’d have ruined the surprise.
“Well, about how late do you think you’ll be? I was going to make dinner but I don’t want it getting cold on you.”
“Oh, I’d say about an hour, hour and a half or so.”
“Okay, well then I guess I’ll just see you then, huh?”
“Yup. And baby?”
“Yes?”
“I love you.”
She could almost hear the smile as he said, “I love you too.”
Surprisingly enough, once she got that idea in her head, it was much easier to work, even if she did keep thinking about it. This time, she’d just get a devilish smile on her face, and go right on working. It wasn’t as frustrating when she had a plan.
Of course, she had lied to Blake. She wasn’t really working late. She went shopping instead. First stop: the liquor store. She bought one bottle of wine to go with their dinner, a case of beer for him for later… or whenever he decided he wanted it, and a small bottle of tequila for her. Second stop: the lingerie store. It was a horribly expensive store, but every once in a while, she would splurge on the both of them and he always seemed to like the results of her shopping sprees. She selected one black, see-through babydoll nightie with marabou trim and a little game for them to play. At the check-out counter, she spied a small container filled with flavored lubricating oils and decided to get a few of them as well. They might not be necessary, but they would certainly be fun!
Feigning an intense need to use the bathroom, she ran upstairs as soon as she got home and hid her “special finds” in her drawer. He’d never look there in the first place, and certainly not before she got a chance to do something with them.
Coming back downstairs, she could see that he really did get the house done as she asked. This made her feel a lot better, because it really did stress her out to see the house when it was a mess. She worked a lot, working overtime almost every week, and didn’t always have the time or the energy to help; whereas he was home all day every day and while taking care of the kids was a full time job by itself, it didn’t mean that there was any excuse to not get anything done in a day.
Dinner was eaten, children were cleaned up, stories were read and children were put to bed. All the while, Blake would look at Suzi with a quizzical look on his face and she would just smile and attempt to look as innocent as she could… which was no easy feat, for she was feeling very, very naughty. But in a good way!
After having taken the kids upstairs and put them to bed, Blake came back downstairs and asked Suzi, “so? Where’s my surprise?”
“Now if I just threw it at you right now, would that be very fun?” she asked him, an evil gleam in her eyes.
Sighing, he agreed. “I guess not. But how long am I going to have to wait??”
Smiling, she said, “Not long. Why don’t you go take a shower and I’ll clean up the dinner dishes. That way you’ll be able to have some hot water. You take such short showers that there should still be some left for me when you’re done.”
“Okay…” he said, reluctantly agreeing. She could see that he was getting anxious. But that was a good thing! She wanted him to get anxious… she’d been much more than simply anxious all day long!
