The next morning was the one day of the week when we both had the kids out of the house and typically spent the day together. Before Ray had come over, I had been looking forward to this morning with lustful thoughts of further exploring Traci. That morning she called saying she'd be over as soon as she the kids were off. Instead of being totally horny, I was consumed with guilt over the events of the previous afternoon.
Traci walked in the house. She looked absolutely stunning. I knew I had completely ruined everything. Here she was, my friend, my lover, standing beautiful before me, and I had betrayed her. If Ray could have only controlled himself; stayed away, waited until the next time the four of us were together. If I could have taken control of the afternoon; if I could have controlled myself... I didn't know where to start but I had to tell her.
She looked at me. Something was wrong. She wasn't her usual self, and I wondered if she knew. Or perhaps she had been having second thoughts about Sunday and what had transpired. She couldn't keep my eye, looking away as I approached her. I reached for her, just to hug and say hello but she was withdrawn.
"We need to talk." I told her. "Let me get you a cup of coffee."
"Yes we do" she answered and looked away again.
In silence, I poured her coffee and sat on the couch. I patted the seat next to me.
"Please, sit down. We can get through this, maybe start over, but let's at least talk it out. Get everything out in the open and hopefully at least restore our relationship." I pleaded.
She looked at me, her soft brown eyes troubled. She trembled and then spoke.
"Then you know. Terri, I am so sorry, I can't explain it, but it just happened, and I, I'm so, so sorry. Can you please forgive me?"
Now I was confused. What on earth could she be apologizing TO ME about? She was nearly in tears. I took her coffee and set it on the table. She looked up at me. I held her for a moment, gently caressing her cheek and neck. I lightly kissed her cheek.
I still wasn't sure what she was apologizing for, but I knew that I certainly owed her one.
"You have nothing to be sorry about. It was my fault. I should be apologizing to you, not you to me. Can you forgive me?"
She looked back at me. "You're my best friend, and yesterday... I don't see how you can say it was your fault, but thank you for understanding. I love you so much, and yesterday..."
Now I was really confused. I was sure that neither of us was talking about the same yesterday. I gently lifted her chin until I held her eye. I knew it was time for me to confess. Whatever it was that she was sorry about couldn't be nearly as bad as what I was about to tell her.
"Traci honey, I don't think that we're talking about the same thing. I did something yesterday that was totally out of line. I betrayed you, betrayed your trust, and I need to tell you how sorry I am."
"I don't understand" she replied, "I was the one who did the betraying."
Now I was really confused, and certain that she didn't know about Ray's surprise visit.
"Yesterday afternoon" she continued, "Yesterday when Bill came over to my house, while the kids were asleep, and he... I mean we... Oh Terri, I am so sorry!"
She fell into my arms sobbing, begging me for forgiveness when it hit me. That bastard husband of mine gave Ray the afternoon off, knowing he'd come straight here! Then he probably waited a few minutes and came home, seeing Ray's car, headed straight to Traci's house. Either that or the two of them planned the whole thing.
I lifted her up and looked into her eyes. I lightly kissed her lips, not as a lover, but as a friend.
"Traci, there's more to yesterday than that. While Bill was at your house, Ray came over here. I don't know if the two of them were working in concert, or if that rotten husband of mine schemed up the whole thing, but if what happened at your house is what I'm thinking happened, then you and I have nothing to apologize to each other for because the same thing happened here."
She looked at me quizzically. "I don't understand?"
"Simple," I told her, "Ray was her yesterday afternoon. I was in the bath tub when he walked in. He told me that Bill had given him the afternoon off. I was laying in the tub and he, I mean we... Well, to put it bluntly, I didn't put up much resistance, no, honestly, I put up absolutely no resistance, and that's why I need to apologize..."
"You mean, you and Ray... While Bill and I..." she paused, contemplating for a moment. "Do you think they planned it that way?"
"I don't know. I can see Bill planning something like that, but I don't know, they may have talked and worked it out among them. I'm just not sure..."
"And he just walked in on you, while you were in the tub. Didn't you hear him come in?"
"Well... Um... My mind was kind of preoccupied... I had been thinking about Saturday night... and Sunday afternoon... And, well, I don't know that I would have heard a whole lot in that state..."
She looked at me and smiled.
"I know what you mean. I've been thinking about you also... Tell me more about yesterday" she asked. Start with the beginning, before he came over, I need to hear it. I need to hear it all."
So I recalled the entire day, starting with my inability to focus on anything, how my mind had been filled with lust, lust for my husband, for her husband, and for her. I told her everything, how I had fantasized about her, how I was masturbating when Ray walked in and how I came when he showed me his hard cock. She paid rapt attention and as I continued, her breath became short. She licked her lips wantonly as I described watching myself in the mirror as I had sex with her husband. As I told her more and more I felt a fire growing within me, my guilt being replaced by lust as I watched a similar transition occur in my new lover.
When I finished we sat in silence. Probably not too long, but it seemed an eternity. I saw the desire in her eyes, her short breaths causing her bosom to heave up and down, the slight perspiration starting to build. I had to have her and I took her in my arms and kissed her softly. Her lips parted and out tongues began their dance, lightly at first, growing bolder as they progressed. I felt her hand cup my breast, it send a shock through my body, ending between my legs.
