John, Carol and their two sons helped Carol to move back in. It was over 2 years after she was moved out. To celebrate, all three kids paid for dinner reservations at a special place for just the two of them, alone. After Carol and John showered, they left to eat.
At the restaurant, it became a bit quiet between them. A little bit was tiredness from the moving activity of the day, the rest was the activity of the past two years. At the end of dinner while they were treated to desert, Carol cleared her throat, she wanted to talk. "I have to talk about" when John broke in. "No you don't. We went over that, whatever happened, and" then Carol broke in, "Please John, let me talk, please?" He nodded yes and allowed her to continue.
"In the past several years before I strayed, before I destroyed our marriage, we kind of got into a rut, emotionally and sexually. Our relationship was dying. I know that I was the biggest part of that. We've worked on the emotional and relationship part." He nodded yes.
"I want to talk about the sexual part. We haven't gone there. When I was unfaithful, what I did... was the same that you and I did, nothing different, actually even less. We've been physically apart for 2 years. We both have changed. We've started over. I think that emotionally, we're better than before." John nodded again, but smiled this time.
"I have and I've seen you drop parts of our lives that were not working for us." She cleared her throat and took a drink. They both knew she was stalling, buying a little bit of emotional time.
"I want our sexual relationship to start over again too. Start over from the very beginning. Nothing off bounds. Maybe not nothing, but at least we talk about it first." she paused, "Nothing between us anyway. At least to try something that our partner wants to try. We may not do it again, or we may love it, but we need to have that freedom to be open to new things between us. How do you feel about this? What do you think?"
John waited a minute, and Carol was worried. But then he smiled and Carol relaxed a bit. "I'll admit that tonight I was worried about what you did before. It was one of those things that I hit the wall on for those months before the accident. I thought I just needed to move on. But you're right, everything should be open to talking." He took a sip from his drink. She reached over and placed her hand in his. He squeezed it lovingly. They learned much in the past year about being with each other.
"Sexually, with you I've been dead for several years. We only did one or two things, then came" at that he paused. She added, "My straying, my being an unfaithful bitch?" He continued, "I stayed dead for the next year. But we met at the marriage group, and I started to feel things again. Just after our granddaughter was born, on my way back from the west coast, I actually drove to a legal brothel in Nevada."
Carol's eyes were wide. Her quiet conservative husband went to a whore house? There was something, something exciting going on in him that she never knew.
"But that was as far as I got, the parking lot. I wasn't ready for anything like that. For the hour I waited there, I saw about 20 guys go in and only 10 come out. I figured it was a 45 minute job." And he laughed. After a second or two, she did too. This was not the man she knew before, the one who was so quiet about sex. This gave her an idea. They continued talking about sex, what they were feeling, what they wanted, what the other wanted. They had never done this before, so openly, so frankly.
They had finished their desert and coffee. Carol reached over and gave John a big kiss. Then she whispered into his ear, "We need to do better than 45 minutes." then stuck her tongue into his ear and her hand across his groin. That used to drive him crazy years ago. She used to do it to him in public when a few people could see. She was betting it was doing the same now. She was right and what she traced the outline of in his pants told her so.
Paying the waitress, they got up from the table and Carol felt a hand grab and playfully squeeze her right cheek. She jumped at first, then stopped and backed into it, twice. The second time caught John off guard. The games have started, and these were two dedicated players. It was going to be a good night.
In the car on the way home, Carol slowly traced his manhood with her hand. Then to make his driving even more interesting, she slid her dress up slowly while spreading her legs. He had never seen her in a thong before. In the darkness of the front seat, she kept teasing John, pulling his eyes away at stop lights, only to cover up when it turned green. A couple of cars honking brought him back to reality. He was going to get her for this later.
Pulling up to the driveway, he reached over and pulled her mouth to his, and his hand plunged into her thong. That's when he discovered she had shaved. She whispered, "I did that for you last night. Do you like?" while his fingers entered her slit. She moaned while he got her all worked up. She was very near to coming when he stopped cold. "We have to get into the house, and bolted to the door laughing. "Tease me will you. Hurry up." She got her self together and had to plan her come back quick.
John had entered the house, but stopped cold in the hallway. There were flowers with 'Welcome Home' balloons on the table, along side an antipasto tray with an ice bucket with spumate and two glasses.
Carol came up behind him. She felt his arm over her shoulder, hugging her. Their lips met and their arms held each other, until she goosed his ass and laughed. She giggled out a "If you open that bottle, I'll bring the tray upstairs."
He smiled at her and said "Who has to go upstairs? Just get the glasses ready." and they both heard the pop. The spumate started to bubble over, but she quickly put her mouth on it and sucked to stop any loss or mess.
With her mouth still on the bottle she heard, "You look pretty good sucking something long and hard." He cupped her ass and gave it a playful light slap. "John, I didn't care about the mess on the floor or me not anymore. I didn't want to waste it. Fill these glasses, and meet me in the living room while I get the tray and close the curtains."
