"So, would you really fuck Amy?"
I did a classic "spit-take" with the beer I was enjoying in our back yard, and looked at my wife Sasha.
I opened my mouth and said, "Uh..." She snickered. I'm sure I had the same look on my face our dog has when we catch him doing something he's not supposed to ... because I HAD been thinking about fucking Amy. A lot. I'd been thinking about her, in fact, since I'd met her at Sasha's high school reunion a couple months ago.
Now don't get the wrong idea. I don't cheat on my wife, and I certainly wasn't planning to sneak around with Amy behind her back. That would be fairly hard to accomplish even if I was planning on it, because Amy still lives in the small town Sasha grew up in.
That didn't stop me from fantasizing about Amy, though. I do a fair amount of fantasizing about other women, and Sasha is well aware of it. When my wife and I first got together, our fifteen year age difference didn't have much of an impact on our sex life; as we both got older - and she went through menopause - we found ourselves on different rhythms. I was in my early forties and still had a healthy appetite for sex. She was in her mid-fifties and had "slowed down" a bit sexually.
This could have been a big problem for us. Luckily, over the 20 years we've been married Sasha and I have made a commitment to be open and honest with each other, and to "check in" regularly to make sure each of us is giving the other what we need. A couple years back we had one of those "check in" sessions because she was concerned that her lowered libido might take a toll on our marriage. I told her not to worry -- our relationship is about much more than just sex... besides, I had the situation "well in hand." I'd been taking care my needs with fantasy, my right hand, and a little internet porn. Any time she felt a little randy and we got the chance to play together... well, that was a bonus.
After that conversation I got to enjoy one of those "bonuses" under the stars on our back porch... but that's a story for another time.
On this particular day, I kept that same spirit of open honesty - but I took a long drink of my beer first, and considered what to say.
"Well, yeah," I said, and watched her reaction closely. "Why do you ask?"
"I'm just remembering something you said when we were back home," she replied. "When Amy was complaining about not having a date for the reunion. You said, 'Well if she's looking for someone to take her home I can take care of her.' Remember?"
"Oh -- right!" I chuckled. I did remember the comment - it was one of those casual off-color jokes I throw out from time to time. It had gotten a laugh out of Sasha, which was the point... I was surprised she remembered it.
"But you were only half-joking, right? I mean, if you had chance you'd totally do Amy... wouldn't you?"
I opened my mouth. Then I closed it. I was stuck. I'd already admitted I was attracted to Amy (well, that I'd "fuck her") so it was too late to back-pedal. I looked at her and nodded my head, waiting to see where this was going.
"Huh," she said as she settled into the porch swing next to me. "Really? I would have thought you'd go for Gina, not Amy."
Gina was another woman Sasha had gone to high school with. Like Sasha she was in her mid-fifties, but I would have guessed she was 8 or 9 years younger. Gina had gone on to be a high-powered lawyer in New York, and she dazzled everyone at the reunion when she showed up in expensive, tight and VERY short dresses - dresses that that showed off her well-toned body.
"Nah," I said to Sasha as I ran my finger down her shoulder, around her left breast, and onto the swell of her belly. "Too --"
"Too skinny," she finished, laughing. "You sicko..."
Sasha knew my tastes well. I've always preferred nicely rounded women to the super-thin model types. That's one of the reasons I love looking at my wife -- naked or clothed -- and it's one of the reasons I felt drawn to Amy. Like Gina, Amy had gone on to a high-powered career in the big city after school. That's where the similarities ended, though. Amy returned home a few years ago to take care of her aging parents, and stayed. While Gina obviously worked out religiously to keep her figure, Amy had grown soft and round, with a nice large pair of breasts, wide hips, and a generous ass.
"It's not just that," I protested, "though it's certainly part of it. Gina's impressive, don't get me wrong. It's not like I'd kick her out of bed. Amy, though... there's something about her. A fire. That's what I found really attractive about her."
Moving back to the small burg she and Sasha grew up in hadn't dampened Amy's ambition. She had been the major organizer of their high school reunion, and even though she couldn't find a job in Podunk West Nowhere giving her the opportunities she'd had earlier in life, Amy threw herself into projects for local causes that had gained national attention.
"Remember when she was sitting outside the hotel having a cigarette with us," I said, "telling us about the community center she's helping rebuild? She had a real spark about her... that's what I found sexy. Sure, body-wise she's my type... but it was her energy that really got me going."
Sasha laughed ruefully. "I remember sitting out on the park bench, and thinking she was about three for four drinks ahead of us. I also remember her saying she hadn't been able to get a date since moving back home... and I wondered if she was hinting at something. She couldn't keep her eyes off you."
It was my turn to laugh. "Oh, please," I said. "She hardly knew me -- I doubt she was 'hinting' at anything." Really, I'm not much to look at. Just an average guy with an average build. Sure, I try to go to the gym occasionally, but I'm no Brad Pitt.
Sasha shook her head. "You never take me seriously when I tell you women are checking you out. Well, never mind... dinner's going to be ready in about twenty minutes." She got up and walked into the house, her round ass swaying as she opened the door.

Nothing more was said about Amy during dinner. After we'd eaten and washed the dishes, Sasha and I stripped and took a dip in our hot tub with a glass of wine. We watched the sun go down over our neighbor's house and soaked in the heat from the water as the air began to cool.
After a few moments, I heard her voice in the semi-darkness. "So, how would it have worked? At the reunion, I mean?"
I'd been looking at the water bubbling between her large breasts. Now my eyes snapped up to meet hers. "What do you mean?"
"Remember when we were driving into town, and you made that crack about having a threesome with my high school girlfriends? How would that have worked?"
