The night and morning after my encounter with Scott was not at all what I expected it to be. I desperately needed to be in Dan's arms again but he was still hours from being home. This was the first time that I'd done anything without being able to be reclaimed by him immediately afterwards. Feelings of uncertainty and guilt crept in and I guess I just wanted Dan to tell me everything was ok. My reaction caught me completely off guard. Dan eventually got home, he ravaged me and reclaimed me exactly how I needed but some feelings remained that we needed to work through. We had experienced all combinations by now of Dan watching, participating or simply hearing about it afterwards. While he was open to everything more than I was, we both agreed that a traditional threesome like we'd had with Ron and later with Kristen was our true sweet spot where we felt the most comfortable. I loved performing for Dan but also needed the immediate gratification of him taking me back. We both felt we should pursue encounters in that direction at least for the foreseeable future. Ron had been in a relationship for a bit so unfortunately he seemed out of play. I surprised Dan by telling him I'd prefer a threesome with Kristen over being alone with another guy. It had nothing to do with being bi or something, I just was so much more at ease with my husband present. Since there were no immediate prospects anyway, we decided we keep an open mind and see how things went. Unfortunately things didn't go all that well over the next few months.
Several days after our conversation I was retained in a capital case, it was one of the biggest cases of my career. All through the spring and summer it brought a huge workload that cut into all parts of my life. I felt constantly stressed and it started to take a toll. Our visits to the lake were infrequent, I missed way too many workouts and ate too much fast food. I knew I was not doing well but just couldn't put the brakes on. For the first time in more than three years our sex life started to slow down. Dan did his very best to keep me balanced all summer but his work was cutout for him. We had no new adventures for the entire summer and I was stressed beyond belief. I wasn't happy with what was going on, or not going on at home. I was unhappy with my body as for the first time In years I'd gained weight and hated it. It became a cycle and I seemed stuck in it. Perhaps worst of all I was turning 50 in just a few weeks and it had me freaked out. Thankfully my case finally came to an end just after Labor Day and my life was my own again.
I knew I needed my physical release so I started back to the gym with a vengeance! Dan had booked a week for us at a beautiful new beach resort to celebrate my 50th; I only had a few weeks to try to make a difference. Every night away from the stress, every night back in the gym and every night back in my husbands arms made me feel like myself again. I couldn't wait for a week away with my love and I on a beautiful beach. We checked in the day before my birthday and headed immediately out to the beach. The ocean is truly my happy spot and I could feel the remaining stress pour out of me laying there next to my gorgeous husband. We did absolutely nothing except sit together relaxing and talking until the sun had dipped below the horizon. Our sex that night was the best in months! It's amazing what just a little relaxation can do for you. I woke up on my 50th to a perfect beach day, sunny skies and high humidity. I was in a bikini by 9 and on the beach with my coffee in hand a few minutes later. It was the perfect way for me celebrate a bit of a milestone.
Sometime in the early afternoon Dan went to the pool bar to grab us a round of boat drinks as I waited watching the waves. It seemed he was gone quite awhile so I turned to see if I could locate him. I spotted Dan still at bar apparently in conversation so I decided to walk up and join him. I found that my husband was chatting with the bartender and clearly seemed to know him. He slipped his arm around me and introduced me to Matt.
"Damn man you got yourself a trophy wife," he joked to Dan as he checked me out in my bikini.
"Nope I got me a trophy husband," I shot back with a grin as I shook Matt's hand.
The guys both laughed and we were off. I've been around men like Matt and my husband most of my life and feel so comfortable with them because truly strong men treat a strong woman as an equal. Dan explained that he and Matt had served in some of the same units but never at the same time because my husband was 10 years older. They had also been in some of the same Middle East spots as contractors. They had met there years ago, were never friends because they didn't spend much time together but knew and respected each other. He had saved enough money to get out of the business and now tended bar a few days a week, flirting with all the lonely married women while their husbands went golfing.
Matt was absolutely gorgeous and 100% my type! He looked like he could be Dan's brother. He was muscled and fit with a full sleeve of tattoos on both arms. A well groomed beard, strong shoulders and piercing blue eyes finished the package. It may have been just hopeful thinking but I swear I knew in the first 10 minutes I was gonna end up naked with this guy. He flirted with me right from the start almost like he knew it was totally okay to do so. He called bullshit on me when I told him we were celebrating my 50th birthday so we bet a day on his boat if I proved it. I could see he was enjoying me in my bikini and Dan was loving showing me off too. Our drinks were on the house the rest of the afternoon and I was a bit tipsy by the time we said goodbye and headed upstairs for a nap. Dan and Matt exchanged cell numbers and we made plans to spend a day on his boat the day after next, his day off. Dan and I retreated to our room and again had the best sex in months! Just the prospect of the naughtiness to come filled us with lust for each other. In felt so good, it felt like "old times".
We were still frisky the next morning and after another delicious round of love making Dan sent me to the pool bar alone so I could flirt a little. We knew Matt would be there and Dan promised not to be too far behind. I decided on my turquoise bikini and didn't even waste time with a coverup. Matt saw me coming across the pool deck and stopped what he was doing to watch me... what a turn on! There were only a few others at the bar this early so I walked around to the servers station where he could see me better.
"I've got something for you in my bikini," I teased seductively while glancing down.
Matt didn't know what to say at first and I was quite pleased I'd surprised him!
It took him a few seconds to notice my drivers license peeking out from my bikini bottoms where I'd tucked it to tease him. I was certain Dan would ravage me later when I told him what I'd done! Matt still seemed confused.
"I have to prove my age to earn my day on your boat right?" I asked.
"Oh yeah," he said when he figured it out.
"Go ahead," I teased while looking down at the license but not offering to take it out.
Matt stared directly at me contemplating what he was going to do. Finally he reached to take it from me. He moved slowly and his eyes never left mine. Two fingers brushed lightly against my hip and then just inside my bikini. He didn't pull it out immediately but left his fingers there touching my skin inside the thin fabric. It was dirty and erotic as hell! Just a couple inches lower and he would have felt just how erotic I thought it was, already wet from just this.
Matt checked quickly for my birthdate and then handed it back to me. I of course made a big show of tucking it back in.
"Damn girl you look fucking awesome for 50," he told me, "I'd have guessed you 15 years younger."
