For the last 15 years I have been in the Military which has caused my wife Connie and I to endure many long periods of separation. During all that time, I have never strayed β Sure, I have thought about it many times, but when it came time to mess around on her I just didn't want to risk our relationship.
About 5 months ago I was transferred to another command that required me to move. The problem was that Connie had a great job that she just couldn't transfer from right then. After talking to Connie, we decided that I would go ahead by myself and come home when I could during the 2 year tour while she remained behind.
The day I checked in, I ran into Bill who was an old friend from a previous command. He had since retired and now worked on the base as a contractor. Back when the two of us were stationed together, Connie and I spent a lot of time with Bill and his wife Kim so it was natural that he invited me to their house for dinner that night. I remembered Kim as being a very beautiful, outgoing woman. In fact, back then she was the object of many of my fantasies. Of course I never acted on any of those feelings because of Connie & Bill, but there was no denying my attraction to her.
When we arrived at the house, Kim was already there preparing dinner. I immediately noticed that she had gained quite a bit of weight, but she was still very attractive. When she saw us, she came right over and gave me a big hug and then she stepped back and smacked me in the arm.
"Why haven't you called or kept I touch over the last few years? Since Bill transferred we haven't had anyone to hang out with the way we did back in the day."
"I'm not sure how this is only my fault, you never called Connie and me either" I said in my defense.
"That's different. You know that you men are always at fault for everything." She said laughing.
This was the type of banter that I had grown accustomed to during our time together, and it seemed like we never missed a beat. She told me and Bill to go get cleaned up for dinner and get out of her way while she finished cooking as she shooed us out of her kitchen.
Dinner that night was excellent and the conversation was great. After the meal we retired to the living room for drinks and to catch up. The whole evening things were wonderful and the atmosphere stayed light, but sometimes Kim's laughter seemed just a little forced and I noticed that every once in a while she would get a really far away look in her eyes. I passed this off as nothing and we all seemed to enjoy the evening.
At one point, Bill told me that on Friday he was going to California for an assignment. He would be there for most of the next 6 months. Kim said she was not exactly happy about that, but this one trip would double their pay for the year, so it was worth the separation.
When I announced that I should be getting back to the barracks because it was getting late, both Bill and Kim immediately objected and told me that their guest room was mine if I wanted it for the night. Since it was late and I didn't really want to drive back to the base that night, I accepted their offer and headed to bed. That night I had more of that dreams about Kim. Yes, she had gained a good bit of weight, but to me that only made her sexier. I fell asleep thinking about how lucky Bill is since he gets to fall asleep each night next to her curvy body.
The next day at work, Bill asked me to come out to the house that evening because he and Kim had something to talk to me about. I said sure, and went out as soon as I got off. When I got there, Kim again greeted me with a big hug and a kiss on the cheek. As she did this, she seemed to push her large breasts into me a little more than was necessary, but I told myself to that I was imagining things.
"So what did you two want to talk to me about?" I asked.
Bill responded with "We want you to move in with us and stay in the spare bedroom."
I said, "No way. I can't impose on you two like that. I'm sure I'll be a regular guest here and I'll spend my share of nights here, but I can't expect you to put me up here full time."
"Nonsense! You won't be imposing at all." Kim said. "First off, we are inviting you. Secondly, Carrie is grown up and moved to New York for her career, so we have plenty of room." Carrie is their 22 year old daughter. "Thirdly, Bill will be gone over the next 6 months, so it would come in handy to have a man around to take care of things."
As she said the last part, she seemed to raise her eyebrows and give me a look that I have never seen from her before. Since Bill wasn't looking, I decided to take it as a pleading look to convince me to stay.
"Well if you're sure that I won't be imposing, maybe I will stay." I said
