I arrive home around midday on a sunny Wednesday afternoon wanting to surprise my wife Lara. I took the afternoon off because I have been unable to concentrate at work. The reason is simple. My head has been dancing with thoughts of every bit of Lara's beautiful 5' 6" body.
When people meet her Lara for the first time, they think that she is a calm person that takes anything that may happen in her stride. This is probably because she is at peace with herself and has nothing to prove. Her big brown eyes and straight sweet pinkish lips have a quiet intensity that mirrors a woman that carefully plans her path and does not easily move off it. She is also a very intelligent woman with a high forehead. Her shoulder length dark brown hair has a slight rebellious curl that enhances her simple beauty.
I think of how I met Lara two years ago. I was at a party with a friend when I saw her. She had a crowd of friends around her, both men and women. She was the undisputed leader of her set. I moved up to her, guided by an instinct that my life was about to change. Soon we were chatting, and her friends were completely forgotten.
Within a few weeks we were married.
We love being together, and spend every night in each others' company.
Lara's old set of friends still gets together occasionally, but now she does not see them often.
Since we were married, Lara has been the perfect wife. She is outgoing and makes friends easily. She has even introduced several potential customers to me. She is good at running the household.
And she is very good in bed. Her body has a certain music in it that turns sex into a passionate dance. She is a true fantasy lover.
That is why I am going home. Lara is ovulating.
As I drive into the driveway I notice that Gordon's car parked in a carport. Gordon is her dance partner. On Wednesday mornings, they practice dancing. I smile. It was my idea. Initially Lara was uncertain about having Gordon alone with her while dancing, and the first few sessions were a little awkward. Recently Lara has become more comfortable with the practice sessions. I have also noticed that she is more responsive when we make love on Wednesday evenings than on other nights.
Gordon and Lara have apparently continued dancing for a bit longer than planned.
I encouraged Lara to take up dancing because of her natural rhythm and style. At first I partnered her, but she quickly far surpassed me in skill and talent. She hit it off with Gordon, and I suggested that they would do well in dancing competitions together. Lara was a bit concerned that I would feel jealous of the closeness that they would have to share by being dance partners, but I assured her that I would be glad if she were to take up a physically active hobby as this would enable her to keep her pretty figure trim.
Within the first few months they started doing well in competitions, and already they are shaping well as novice dancers. Lara is blooming in every way. I make sure that I support her by going to competitions and cheering her on, but otherwise leave her to enjoy herself. Lara seems content with this.
Another smile plays on my face as I remember the evening a month ago when she asked me what I thought of Gordon. I kissed her tenderly, noticing a certain tension in her body.
"He is a fine man," I said. "He is gentle, a good dancer, and very good looking. I think you are very lucky to have a partner like him. Other women dancers would love to take him from you." I winked at her. "Besides, have you noticed that he has a nice package where it counts?"
Lara blushed purple. "What dirty thoughts you have!" she scolded me. She had really not noticed Gordon's endowment. She gave me the cold shoulder to me for a few nights. When our lovemaking resumed I could have sworn that it was if anything a little more wild than before, and that Lara seemed to need more loving than ever.
I also noticed that for the first few weeks she moved more carefully around Gordon. It was as if she thought that he was a bomb, and that the wrong move would make him go off.
The last few weeks their dance has improved drastically. This is probably because Lara has become much less reserved in her dance. It seems as if she is becoming more physical with Gordon, touching him and letting him touch her more. They are hitting it off better than ever before.
I move closer to the house. I hear loud dance music coming from inside. It is the tango.
Lara and Gordon have become good at the tango. It is their best dance.
Maybe Lara prefers to keep a slight distance away from her partner. Perhaps she is not fully aware of the suggestiveness of the dance. Perhaps she just thinks that the dance is beautiful.
I take my time moving towards the house, enjoying the sun shining down on me. Lara and Gordon's dance session is coming to an end, and it would be rude to interrupt them. Still, it would be nice to see their moves without disturbing her concentration.
At least the loudness of the music means that it is unlikely that they have heard me arrive. They have not seen me either: the drive is hidden from the house. A short meandering path leads to the house. As I come close to the house I can sense that the music is coming from the lounge. The pulsing rhythm drives has a power like a steam train. It would be enough to give a lame, deaf man fantasies of becoming a new John Travolta.
I move with the music, certain that I am about to witness something completely unforgettable.
The path makes its final twist, and the house comes into view. The first room that is visible is the lounge. I can see perfectly into the room because the whole front wall of the lounge is made of glass. The roof has several skylights, bathing the interior with a warm light.
They are not dancing the tango.
They are not dancing any ballroom, Latin or disco step.
The dance area is empty.
