Extreme Measures
"So how have things been?" Denise asked while pouring a tall glass of white wine. "It's been too long since we've hung out!"
"Things have been fine, I guess. It's just been hard with the kids so young. Chris hasn't been much help with all the house projects going on," Lucy explained as she grabbed the bottle from Denise. "Thanks for asking me to lunch. It's been a while since I've done anything on my own."
"No problem sweetie! I know you have 2 young ones, but you have to remember to find time for yourself. Also, time with your husband. I know if feels like your kids are your whole life, but you can't lose track of your love life and especially your sex life!" Denise winked at Lucy.
Lucy started to tear up upon hearing that. She did not want to spend her free time crying about her life, but Denise's words hit a nerve.
"Oh, honey. What's wrong? I didn't mean to upset you," Denise replied with a sincere look on her face.
Lucy tried to regain her composure, "I don't know what to do anymore. Chris never takes me out. We are always stuck at home with the kids. He never wants to do anything. We barley have sex. The last few times I've initiated, he couldn't even get it up. I feel like I just here to be everyone's maid and roommate. It's probably been 9 months since the last time we had sex. I feel like he would be just fine going on without from now on. If I bring anything up, he gets all snippy at me. He can be quite nasty. I feel like we are roommates who care for two toddlers."
"Really? Erectile disfunction at 33 years old? It sounds like something is up. Maybe he's watching too much porn?" Denise asked.
"I don't know. He's used a number of excuses. He's tired, he's not feeing it, he's even blamed his vasectomy for lowering his sex drive. It's like he is annoyed that I even suggest sex. I know by body isn't what it used to be before children, but I think I still look pretty good," Lucy sobbed.
"Honey don't be ridiculous. You are a knockout. Any guy should be happy to be with you. This sounds like a problem in Chris's head that has nothing to do with you. Jamie's vasectomy only made him hornier so that's a bad excuse," Denise snapped back.
The two carried on for the next half hour. Lucy really unloaded on Denise, discussing all her issues with Chris. Denise just sat taking it all in. Then she came up with a plan.
"I have an idea. Let's make plans for you and Chris to come by the house in 2 Saturdays. Leave the children at your parents and we'll send our kids to Jamie's Moms. Be prepared to stay the night. Wear some sexy lingerie," Denise smiled.
On her way home from lunch, Lucy wondered what Denise's plan was for her and Chris's relationship. She felt happy to have Denise in her life.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lucy's husband Chris knew Jamie (Denise's husband) since birth. Chris and Jamie's fathers were best friends. Jamie being a decade older than Chris watched Chris grow up. Chris always looked up to him as a child, but they became close friends themselves when Chris reached adulthood.
Jamie being a decade ahead, got married first, had kids first, etc. Jamie paved the way as an example for Chris. Jamie at the beginning of his marriage like living vicariously through Chris's escapades during his twenties. Jamie would love when Chris would bring the "girl of the week" he was seeing around. It always reminded him of his past single life.
As all things must pass, Chris eventually met Lucy and decided to settle down himself. Jamie and Denise where his "older friends with kids" when he married Lucy.
Denise always liked Lucy and tried to help her out whenever she could. She had been through it all and although her children (Jackson & Evan) were tweenagers, she remembered what it was like having toddlers. Chris and Lucy's house was always a great dumping ground for toys, clothes, and other child stuff that their own children outgrew. Chris and Lucy were always grateful for the free stuff.
Jamie also liked Lucy. Now in her 30s and two kids later, she was still a stunner. Over the years, he would flirt with her when drinking. Regardless of his flirting, he was a faithful man to his wife and made sure to never cross the line.
On the day of the get together, Denise pulled Jamie aside, "Jamie, I want you do something for me tonight. I want you to try to fuck Lucy."
Jamie looked at his wife like she was crazy, "What? You want me to try to fuck Lucy? Is this some kind of joke or trap?"
"No, I'm trying to save their marriage actually," Denise replied.
"So, your idea is that if I hit on Lucy, it will make Chris jealous and that will somehow save their marriage?"
"Kind of, but not exactly. This is more intense. I want to see if she'll fuck you for real. I know how charming you can be. I'm also interested to see if your game still exists," Denise shot back.
"You're serious, aren't you?" Jamie replied. "I think your plan is a little crazy. Even if I tried, what makes you think she would go along with it?"
"I don't know, I know you can be very charming and persuasive when it comes to those matters. I won't hold it against you if you fail. Can you at least try for me?" Denise pleaded.
Would I love to fuck Lucy? Sure, I however don't want to do anything to jeopardize our marriage. I also don't want to fuck up my friendship with Chris. I couldn't stab him in the back."
"Don't worry about Chris, I'll take care of him," Denise smiled with a devious look on her face.
"Is this what this is about? You have a thing for Chris that you want to explore?" Jamie asked accusingly.
"God no!" yelled Denise. "Is Chris cute? sure. He doesn't hold a candle to you in my book. I just know if he gets some from me, he really has no ground to stand on to be mad at you or Lucy. Look, we've talked about swinging before, we just haven't pulled the trigger. I'm certain you would never leave me for Lucy, and I'd never leave you for Chris. I know you've been dying to fuck Lucy for years. Now is your big chance you stud!"
Jamie could not believe what his wife had thought up. He was torn between making his fantasy of being with his friend's young wife a reality and his fear that he'd fuck up two marriages. He wanted to try swinging for years, he just never thought it would be with good friends. Especially friends who were not expecting it.
After some additional convincing and an hour to think about it, he finally agreed to her plan. She had really thought the whole night through and went over all the details. Many were to help her husband obtain her goal.
At around 7 PM, Chris and Lucy arrived. Jamie was there to greet Lucy with a kiss on the cheek. "Wow, you really look and smell great!" he said with a smile.
"Give Jamie your overnight bags." Denise continued, "You two will be staying in little Jackson's room tonight. I hope you don't mind sharing a single bed."
Once everyone was settled in, Denise came out with a big pitcher of Margaritas. Denise had remembered how touchy-feely Lucy had gotten with the strippers at Lucy's bachelorette party from drinking tequila and wanted to re-create that feeling.
"Oh, no. Things never end well when I drink tequila," Lucy sighed.
"Just stop, when else are you going to have a childless night out? If there was ever a time to blow off some steam it's tonight!" Denise then clinked her glass on the others' glasses,"Cheers!" she said.
As the night went on, the pitchers keep coming. Denise also remembered how Lucy once told her how horny smoking weed made her. Chris did not smoke so Denise kept discreetly giving Lucy hits off her vape pen. Lucy was getting very relaxed and flustered. Jamie made sure to give her extra complements and touching her whenever he could. Denise had told him her love language was "words of affirmation" so Jaime was sure to praise and complement her in every story she told.
"That was really smart of you. Only you could figure that one out. That's some head on your shoulders," became phrases he used all night. Jaime got quite good at inserting a complement wherever he could. If Lucy's story was about a co-worker not pulling their weight, his response would be something like. "They are probably just jealous that they can't do their job as well as you. It must be hard for them to shine with you around."
Jamie's banter was working and noticed Lucy was flirting back with him. At one point, he thought Chris was getting aggravated at him blatantly flirting with his wife in front of him. But then he noticed that Chris was not upset at him but about a sports bet he realized he'd lost by checking his phone. The girls were right, Chris was oblivious to any of his wife's actions. It was like he was checked out.
With all the drinking, everybody was feeling tipsy. Lucy made several attempts to kiss Chris. Chris never like public displays of affection so he would shut it down leaving Lucy frustrated.
It was starting to get late when Chris announced, "I'm beat, I'm gonna hit the hay."
Lucy asked him quietly if he wanted her to join him and he shut her down with a, "Sorry honey, I just want to get some sleep."
Denise saw what happened and went over to Lucy, "Look, Jamie and I give each other hall passes from time to time. He's yours for the night if you want him." She then gave Lucy a wink and told the two goodnight.
As soon as Denise left, Jamie grabbed Lucy's hands, "Let's Dance!" Lucy was happy Jamie was giving her attention and the two started dancing together.
