It was an absolutely perfect night; low humidity, pleasantly warm, a sky full of stars and, best of all, no bugs. Carol was looking forward to seeing Dan and Stella. It had been too long since they had gotten together. Even John seemed excited about the evening ahead. Actually, he seemed a bit overly enthusiastic, which was definitely unusual for him since John was a bit of a loner although he got along well with both of their friends. Sometimes Carol thought he got along too well with Stella. Stella was certainly attractive with her youthful looks -- she could easily pass for someone 15 years younger than she really was, not to mention her petite frame and those big, bouncing boobs she was always showing off. Put it all together and you had a very nice package. Carol was a little bit jealous, but Stella's warm personality kept those feelings at bay. She knew her husband John was attracted to Stella so she occasionally took advantage of that in the bedroom. They liked to tell each other erotic stories while they were making love and she had more than once made Stella the star of the show.
The plan that night included a few nibbles, lots of wine, a fire in the fire pit and plenty of laughter. She wasn't sure anyone would want to swim, but the pool was ready just in case. Carol had pulled the two double loungers, her new favorite pieces on the huge private patio, close together. A couple of tables with drinks and food along with several candles and some warm throws in case it got cooler later made for a cozy setup. John had turned on some music earlier and as the first stars winked in the sky Carol heard the doorbell.
Stella did not disappoint with her choice of outfit tonight, Carol thought. Even she was a bit mesmerized by her friend's ample display of cleavage. John did a good job of keeping his eyes in their sockets when he saw what she was wearing, but Carol could tell he liked it. A quick glance toward his crotch confirmed her suspicions.
Dan swept Carol up in a big bear hug as he came in the door. Dan was more than a little outgoing and very free with his affections. It always made her feel a little looser and less inhibited when he was around; not a bad thing at all. Carol could tell it was going to be a good evening. Good vibes seemed to flow between the four of them as they headed out to the patio.
After everyone had a glass of wine, the two couples settled on the loungers around the fire. They caught up for a while discussing news of their families and events in their lives. Neither couple had children at home anymore and freely admitted how much they liked the empty nests.
As the sky grew darker, more stars came out. With the flickering candles and firelight, the ambiance was decidedly sexy. The show of skin Stella was putting on plus the two good looking guys made Carol feel a quick rush between her legs. She herself was no slouch in the plunging neckline department as she casually sat forward and let Dan have a little peek. He made no secret of his appreciation as he smiled slowly at her.
As if on cue, John reached behind the cushions of the lounger where they reclined. "This seems to be the right time for this," he said with a look of smug satisfaction on his face. It was a baggie with something in it that Carol hadn't seen in a long time.
"Is that weed?" she asked excitedly. Looking like the cat that ate the canary, John nodded in the affirmative. He knew how much she wanted to smoke it again and how she wished it was legal in their state.
"What do y'all think?" he asked the three of them.
"You know how I feel," Carol said. Stella and Dan both eagerly indicated their assent. Pulling a lighter out of his pocket, John lit the first doobie, took a long drag and then passed it to Carol. As she drew the sweet smoke deep into her lungs, she felt herself truly relax. Hanging on to it as long as she could, she expelled the smoke in a slow stream between her lips. Stella and Dan both followed suit and before long everyone was feeling the effects of the excellent sinsemilla John had managed to find. They passed it around until it was gone and the laughter and easy atmosphere intensified.
Dan sat forward on the lounger and with a nod at John he voiced a suggestion that the two of them had apparently talked about earlier. "So," he said, "my buddy here and I have been thinking that maybe it's time we do something a little daring. We're very close friends and are obviously pretty open to doing things that are a bit on the edge."
Stella and Carol looked at each other with brows raised. John slid his hands up his wife's back and massaged her neck as Dan stroked his own wife's leg. "We were kind of hoping you girls might be up for a playing a little sensual card game," said John. "What do you think?"
Carol could feel her nipples harden at his words. She and John had always enjoyed watching porn that involved swinging and the stories they told each other had even included Dan and Stella at times, although she'd never actually even considered making it a reality.
Stella grabbed a bottle of wine and poured everyone another round. "I'm totally up for it," she said excitedly. "What do you say, Carol?" With her inhibitions completely gone, Carol eagerly agreed. What a night this was turning out to be!
The guys stood up and started arranging the loungers even closer than they were before. They positioned them so that the foot of one was up against the foot of the other. Carol noted with interest that this would offer a good way to watch each other do whatever was coming next.
As they arranged themselves back on their seats, Dan explained what the game was as he pulled a deck of cards out of his pocket. He shuffled them and dealt each person one card, face down, and told them the holder of the low card had to lose one item of clothing. "Damn!" the girls said in unison. Carol could hardly wait to see who had the first low card.
As they turned the cards over, a yell went up from John. Stella was holding the low card! She coyly dropped a strap of her exceedingly revealing top for a few seconds before kicking her shoes off. "Rats!" John said. Everyone laughed as Dan dealt another round.
This time he had the low card and wasted no time in unbuttoning his shirt and peeling it off. Carol lost the next round and with the weed running through her system, she reached under her dress and shimmied out of her bra. This brought a chorus of cheers from everyone and made Dan deal the cards even faster. Pretty soon they were all nude. John brought out another joint to pass around and they smoked it like they were back in college.
As they got even higher than they were before, John suggested the girls switch places. Dan clapped his hands together eagerly as Carol and Stella scrambled across the loungers. "What are the rules?" he asked.
John gave him a knowing look and said, "Rules?" Stella jumped in and suggested that they each say what their personal limits were. By this time, Carol was pretty sure she had none. She used to think she didn't want John to ever fuck anyone else, but the thought of watching him slam his dick into Stella while she rode him in a reverse cowgirl position with those magnificent boobs bouncing almost made her have one of her famous hands-free orgasms.
