Hello again my friends and readers, it's Ashli. I know itâs been over two months since my last story, and many of you have been emailing me, waiting for the next installment of my stories. I can't thank you enough for all of your sweet and considerate comments and I love reading your emails and chatting with many of you. If this is your first experience reading one of my stories, might I suggest you read one of my earlier stories and read a little more about me. I'm unlike other writers that I'm trying to share real, but perhaps less explicit, moments in the life of a married woman. But I can assure you, as you can see from this story that happened last month, that expressing myself in writing is helping me become more comfortable with my body and sexuality â becoming more willing to take chances and expand my personal relationship with the man I love.
------------------------
Spending months at home since giving birth to my daughter can really take its toll on a newborn mother. I always considered myself a âparty girlâ in college and enjoyed socializing when we were first married, but once a little darling enters your life, you canât help but say good bye to much of the socializing you once grew accustomed to. While we occasionally get an overnight to ourselves, I was shocked when Rob surprised me last month with a mini vacation to Disney World â 4 whole days and 3 nights. The first class trip was a gift from his firm for finishing a big deal, but the true gift was to be how he and I interacted and explored our sexuality like never before.
We had the entire trip worked outâŚbest of all how his sister offered to take care of our baby, allowing us to go away and really enjoy ourselves. No longer breastfeeding, I felt uneasy about leaving her for such a long period of time, but knew that it was the right thing to do as a mommy. My sister-in-law and her got along great, she was starting to think about children herself and this would be perfect training, not to mention that it would allow Rob and I to enjoy ourselves completely without interruptions.
So I packed my bags with way too many clothes â not sure of what weâd be doing or what would look best on me. All I knew was I had finally dropped the last few pounds and was delighted to be back to my pre-baby weight â something I had waited for well over a year to celebrate. Enjoying my time at home all summer, my body glistened in a light bronze tan. I wanted to show my new self off to Rob, to the entire world, but most importantlyâŚto myself.
We had an early flight out on Thursday and I used the chance to start to surprise Rob, as it would seem I would do the entire long weekend. He had gotten showered and dressed first, wearing his dapper white collarless dress shirt and a pair of khakis â a nice casual look for him. Spending way too much time myself in the bathroom, I emerged wearing one of my more attractive business suits â short, blue pinstripe skirt and matching blazer with pantyhose and heels. Normally I would wear a blouse or lace top with the suit when I worked, but instead went without it today â showing a nice reveal of skin as the collars met at their first button near my breasts.
His bulging eyes gave me his seal of approval as I joined him by the door. With bags in hand, we left for the airport and enjoyed an uneventful flight to Orlando. While sitting, I couldnât help my skirt riding up my thighs. Although in first class (my first time) was spacious, it was still hard to cross my legs â making it somewhat awkward to sit. But both Rob, the gentleman sitting across from me, and the male flight attendant serving us didnât seem to mind. In fact, that was where I first noticed how Rob seemed to enjoy seeing other men gawk at me. Little did he or I know where this little gesture would lead us over the weekend.
We had a great time the next few days. We visited the parks, saw the fireworks, did way too much shopping, but got to enjoy plenty of sun laying out by the pool. I even donned my leopard bathing suit (remember my first story?) when he and I tried out one of the water parks Saturday. I couldnât help notice (and enjoyably so) how I was again attracting an occasional manâs eye â and the reaction it seemed to inspire in my husbands eye.
That night â our last in Disney â we decided to enjoy a night out at Pleasure Island. They have a bunch of clubs and I looked forward to a night of dancing and drinking. After rummaging through different outfits I had packed, I chose an old friend for the party occasion â a short white lycra and cotton mini dress â I wore this dress while dancing with friends many years ago â not realizing I would meet my future husband that night. I hadnât worn this in many years, and was delighted that it seemed to fit and didnât make me look fat. I decided against pantyhose tonight â not wanting to perspire when I was on the dance floor, but also because I felt my legs were tanned enough for the white dress. But I did wear a strapless satin bra and a thong panty (not my usual choice, but the dress would have showed panty lines otherwise). I also left all of the jewelry at home, not wanting to worry about it. So I took off the necklace and my rings, so I wouldnât be frantically searching for anything I lose (trust me, itâs happened).
Rob planned to drink as well, so we left the rental car at the hotel and instead opted to splurge for one of the limos that regularly sits outside the hotel. As the driver came out and held the door for us, I couldnât help but feel the cool evening breeze grace my thighs. I knew the dress was rather short to begin with, but stepping into the limo only made the dress ride up higher towards my ass.
Strolling through Pleasure Island, we immediately made our way to every bar and open liquor stand. Between shots, jell-o shots, mudslides and anything else they temped us with, I quickly felt the alcohol taking its effect on both of us. We had been walking around, sitting at the bars, but I still had the inkling to dance for a while at one of the clubs. The limo driver, Enrique, told us to avoid the lines at one club by seeing one of his friends outside. A small tip would get us in the back door as a VIP. Sure enoughâŚhe was right. There was a line outside Mannequins, but a quick check with his friend quickly got us inside the place.
This was a cool dance club. The heavy techno-beat, lights and smoke made this a great place to dance and feel free. I love this sort of dance music, but Rob was being his usual stick in the mud about dancing. He hated to dance and really didnât enjoy the music all that much. He had also had way too much to drink by this point and knew heâd be stubborn about it. I had to think of something if I was going to get to dance even for a few minutes.
"Please sweetie," I asked him in my little voice and pouty eyes. "You can sit at the bar and just watch if you likeâŚIâm sure I can find a dance partner, if you donât mind?"
âNo, I wouldnât mind that, butâŚâ he replied.
Suddenly remembering his reaction to other menâs stares, I interruptedâŚâMaybe you would like to see me getting hit on by another man?âŚ.Think I can still attract them baby?â
âYou wanna try and get hit on?â he asked. âSure, go ahead, just rememberâŚâ
âJust remember Iâm going home with you sexy man,â I finished.
Rob found a seat at one of the long bars, and I made my way out onto the dance floor somewhat still in his sight. Starting to dance alone, the usual slew of men seemed to make their âroundsâ to the women on the dance floor. There were a couple of weirdos who tried to dance with meâŚbut my typical reaction was to turn 180 degrees to give them the clue that they werenât wanted. I wasnât looking to score or anything â but I wasnât going to dance with some creep either.
It was probably the third guy that approached meâŚabout 100 pounds too large and 4 inches too shortâŚnot your typical heart breaker. He approached me with that usual lounge lizard mentality, and I again turned around and bumped into two guys. Now they were cute⌠each about 6 feet tall, a hint of Latin influence and cute faces. They had to be gay, I assumed.
We started to chat, thinking I was now safe from predator singles with this pair of cuties. I danced between them, as we shouted to each other and tried to get to know each other casually. Turned out they werenât gayâŚthey were in fact half-brothers also on vacation. Jerry and Anthony. Rather surprised, they caught me off guard when they asked if I was down here with someone. Then it dawned on meâŚI wasnât wearing my wedding ring or any jewelry. Not wanting to spoil the company of my dance partners, I simply told them I was down here with a friend who really didnât enjoy the club scene.
