*****
The annual company Bar-B-Q appeared to be a smashing success as the crowd of twenty-six people started to disperse. Brad was still sitting by the smoldering fire pit attempting to keep up with the other eight men as they took turns doing beer-bongs. The last of the couples with kids had left some three hours before, so no one seemed to mind as they hoot and hollered.
Brad's wife Julia was standing on the deck overlooking the backyard, observing the men as she shook her head. She felt a sense of concern as she watched her husband place the long clear tube to his mouth. There was a loud count to three before one of the men hoisted the funnel in the air as Brad sucked down the can of beer. The men let out a praising cheer as Brad managed to stagger back to his seat, which consisted of an old cut log standing on end. It was not like him to drink like this, but he was trying to mingle with the boys.
Another night of sexual frustration, she thought to herself as she turned and walked back in the house. It has been almost three months now since Brad had tried to be intimate with her, and she was getting a little irritated. Julia felt like he had turned all his attention to the new job, and she was starting to feel like a second-class citizen. She knew he was going to be overwhelmed at first with it being his first executive position, but this was getting way out of hand.
Julia was cleaning up the many empty sauce covered pans and dishes with the help from three other wives duped by their alcohol induced husbands. The four women took this opportunity to do a little man bashing as they cleared the red and white checkered tables sprawled about the back yard. The conversation soon turned to sex, which caused Julia to become more aggravated at Brad. As the night progressed, it occurred to her that it was time she had a little heart to heart with her husband, but it would have to wait for now. He was in no condition to negotiate a lover's quarrel tonight.
Julia could feel the thick sense of envy the women carried for her, but she still smiled and joked as she felt the sneers behind her back. With Julia being just twenty-two, she thought it was due to her young age, compared to the mid-thirties of the other wives. She soon found out a few months after Brad started the new job that the company had passed a few men over to outsource the position. This did not sit well with the resentful men, as well as their wives.
Brad was a very intelligent young man that worked hard to get his Bachelor of Business Science degree that landed him the lucrative job right out of college. He was the youngest plant director in the company's thirty-year history at the age of twenty-five. His father's influence with the owner did help a little, but after six months, he seemed to be perfect for the job.
Julia kept looking over as the men took turns with the funnel, egging the young executive to keep going. She knew his ability of keeping up with the other men was not in his favor, when it came to alcohol. She chuckled to herself as she thought about his hangover the next day. She probably should have gone out there to save his dignity, but she knew better than to interfere and embarrass him in front of his personnel. It serves him right, her angry voice said inside her head. He should know better than that anyway.
This went on for another hour before the other women took control of their husbands, forcing the men to take them home. This left Brad out there with five single men as he attempted to maintain his capability to hold several gallons of beer. Julia decided to join the group to make sure her husband refrained from injuring himself.
She took a seat on one of the logs left vacant from the departed men and watched as the remaining men took turns verbally jabbing each other and howling like a pack of wolves. Julia had already had her far share of beer earlier, but decided to join in with the men as she reached in the cooler and pulled out a can of beer. Brad was inebriated from the constant drinking game they were playing, sitting on the log as he flirted with his wife. He tried to kiss her, but she just gave him a quick hug, feeling his hand slip between her legs. Normally she would have slapped him for such lustful moves, but her own sexual tension seemed to embrace his futile attempt to arouse her. She suddenly noticed some of the men as they watched with a slight gleam in their eyes as brad's fingers stroked her between the legs. She pushed his hand away, giving a giggle as she played it off as a drunken slip.
Julia soon realized that Brad was far more intoxicated than the other men, watching as they fixed another beer-bong for their boss. She popped the top of another can as she observed one of the men adding some brown liquor to the beer already in the funnel. Brad stood up with the help of two men as he looked over at Julia and gave her a drunken smile. He placed the plastic tube in his mouth as the men all laughed, lifting the funnel straight up, and watched as the tainted concoction flowed quickly down his throat. Brad let the hose fall as he wiped the beer from the side of his mouth, looking back at Julia with a dazed look. He managed to take two steps before falling backwards into Randy's lap. The men bellowed with laughter as Randy tried to sit him up. Julia was laughing along with them as she tried to pull her husband to his feet. Brad started to laugh as he tried to stand, but it was a fruitless attempt as he crumbled to the ground passed out cold.
"That's it," Julia said as she laughed. "You are done my dear." Everyone snickered and laughed as she pointed to two of the bigger men, "You two, pick him up and follow me, I thinks he needs to go to bed." She said with a slight slur, laughing at her own drunken speech.
The two men, David and Larry, picked up the drunken lightweight and followed Julia in the house as she led them to the spare bedroom. "Right here boys," she pointed at the bed, "He'll be just fine." They plopped him on his back as she took off his shoes and kissed him on the forehead, "Goodnight my dear," she said as she turned out the light and took the hands of the two large men, "Thank you so much," she said in her drunken tone, "let's go back to the party." They walked back outside and rejoined the other three men.
Someone had tossed a few more logs on the fire, bringing it back to a blazing campfire as Julia took her seat, popping open a fresh cold beer. The men were very curious about her, not really knowing much about the young couple before tonight. They started to ask her questions about where they came from, and how they met?
Julia answered all their questions as she tried to hold back the excitement that was building inside her. She could feel the tension building as the much more aggressive men surrounded her, their attention directed solely at her. Julia could sense her body reacting to the older and more physically fit men as her stoned mind began to rush with excitement, urging her to be more flirtatious with them.
She started to recall a particular fantasy that put her among a group of men such as these. She could almost feel their hands roaming across her trembling body. Julia felt a flutter inside her stomach as her imagination went wildly astray. The intimate dream was toying with her mind as she looked around the campfire. She couldn't be serious! She thought to herself, not really.
The men began to sense her desires as Julia's actions became more sensual. They noticed her smiles becoming more suggestive as her gaze wondered from one guy to the next. They started to ask her more intimate questions as she blushed and giggled, playing along as the beers flowed quickly. Julia felt her heart skip when the tallest and sexiest guy asked if she had ever cheated on Brad.
