At 42 Leann looked much younger than her years. When she was 25 most people who didn't know her took her to be 15 so not much had changed over the years except she didn't get carded any more at bars and liquor stores. Leann had married her childhood sweetheart, Gary, when she was but 19 years old. Most people didn't give them much of a chance but now, 23 years later, they were as devoted and in love with one another as they had been on the day they were married and probably more so. They'd had two children, a boy and girl, right away and now both were out of the house, Carl having just graduated from college and Marianne going into her senior y ear.
For the first year of their marriage their sex life was like most young people's, torrid. But as the years wore on, and particularly after they had children, sex became something they had a few times a week and sometime less. They had been best of friends when they got married and it carried them through those times when kids and other outside influences seemed to come together to challenge their having sex. Leann was always afraid the kids would hear something.
Gary was a six foot one husky sort of a guy who Leann called her teddy bear and with good reason. Gary had always been kind natured, gentle and generally easy going. Nothing ever seemed to bother him. He was very attentive to Leann and always was able to comfort her when she'd become agitated and out of sorts.
As Gary's 43rd birthday approached Leann wanted to do something extra special for him but what? She was married to a guy who seldom asked for anything and never complained. Her mind traveled to their sex life. In their own ways they'd been somewhat adventurous in the sex life giving voice to the fantasies and living out quite a few. It was one this point Leann felt certain she could give Gary something special. He'd always wanted to have a threesome and although Leann allowed him his fantasy she'd always assured him it could never happen because she just didn't feel that sort of attraction to another woman.
What she had done is role play with him by becoming another woman and allowing him the fantasy of having sex with that woman. Most of the time it was some actress or a beautiful stranger they'd seen on the street. Leann felt that although Gary seemed to become a little more animated during such times it would never be counted as the best sex they'd ever had. There was one time, however, that he'd fantasized about one of Leann's best friends, Jane. Jane was what Gary called a "trophy wife." She was gorgeous, knew it, and actually traded on it. When she'd graduated from college she'd married a guy who was fast tracking in the securities industry and the fact that he was fifteen years Jane's senior had no effect on her. She had gotten what she wanted, instant security and a life of leisure while he'd gotten a gorgeous young wife he could parade around at parties and other functions.
The day after Jane turned 30 she'd discovered he husband had been cheating on her with, of course, his secretary. It being a loveless marriage Jane quickly divorced him and got a healthy settlement in the process. In the intervening dozen years she'd stayed single and busied herself with the ownership of a high end fashion boutique on a rather exclusive street. She'd never had children, charging her schedule didn't allow for it, when the truth was the idea of children had scared her to death and now at the age of 42 they were no longer a consideration for her. The years hadn't been bad to Jane and while of course she didn't look quite so beautiful as she was when she was 22 she was still quite the head turner.
Leann decided she'd try to get Jane to have a threesome with her as a birthday present for Gary, but how? For a week she considered that question and in the end she decided to just directly ask Jane and be done with it. Leann was very secure in herself in all respects and while the possibility of insulting Jane loomed large she thought her friendship with her was plenty strong enough to survive any problem. So it was on a Thursday that Jane met Leann for lunch at a little bistro.
The two women hugged, as they always did when they met, and exchanged the usual pleasantries. When the hugged, however, Leann search for even the smallest amount of sexual attraction she could find in such a hug but there was none. She would not be deterred however.
"So Leann, what is it you wanted to talk about?" Jane never had a problem with being direct and she knew full well Leann had some agenda going.
Leann summoned up her course and decided to just blurt it out. "I want you to have a threesome with Gary and me."
At that moment Jane was sipping some wine and nearly spit it back out in surprise. "What?"
Leann couldn't tell from Jane's reaction if she were offended, just surprised or what. "You know guys and Gary's no different. He's always wanted to have a threesome with me and another woman. I've never really been interested and he's always been understanding of that fact. His birthday is Saturday and I wanted to really surprise him this year." Leann wanted to lengthen her explanation considerably but she knew Jane well enough to know she'd already given her enough initial information.
Jane sat quietly for a moment showing no emotion and giving no indication of how she was reacting to Leann's request. Then she said in a matter of fact way, "But Leann, you're so" she paused and then said "straight."
A smile broke across Leann's face and she said, "Yeah and that's a problem. I just don't feel attracted to women but as I've been thinking of this I've found that I'm not repulsed by the idea either."
"But why me?" Jane's question surprised Leann.
"You're not serious."
"Of course I am."
"Jane, even I can see you're as beautiful as you've ever been and besides, Gary had had a crush on you when we were still in high school."
"He did? I never knew that."
"It was when we first started dating and I'd asked him about other girls. I was a little insecure in those days and he told me about this crush on you but how he could never ask you out."
"Why?"
"He didn't want to get turned down."
"If he only knew."
"Well, it sounds to me like it's a good thing he didn't."
"No, I would have dumped him anyway. Even in high school I had this thing for rich older guys. You remember that rumor about me and Mr. Reinhardt?"
"You mean that rich old guy on the hill?"
"That's him and he wasn't so old, he was 38."
"And you were 15! So it was true?"
"It was but he was married and even I knew there was no future there."
"So will you do it?"
"What?" Jane replied and just as quickly realized what the question was. She took in a deep breath of air and said, "Maybe."
"What does maybe mean?"
"Why don't you and I have a little test run, just the two of us, to see if you can even go that far. Have you considered how you're going feel seeing your husband fuck another woman?"
"He can't. I mean, I won't let him."
"Leann, honey, I adore you but let me tell you about what kills a marriage, dishonesty. Things happen and believe me, in a moment of passion you give into all sorts of things you think you won't. So if we did end up fucking I don't want you resenting me or worse wrecking your marriage."
"So you're saying if he wants to have sex with you I should be okay with that happening?"
"Pretty much, that way you'll be prepared."
Leann thought a moment and then said, "You're right and I think I can handle that. I don't think you'd try to steal him away anyway."
"I won't try but even if I did, I don't think I'd win."
They talked some more, finished their lunch and agreed to retire to Jane's house. Jane convinced Leann it would be best for her to see how she'd react to being sexually close to another woman so in case it was a problem she wouldn't be introducing Gary into the equation and making everything that much more difficult.
When they got to Jane's house Jane offered Leann a glass of wine to relax her which Leann thought a good idea.
As they sat together on the sofa Leann asked, "Now what?"
"Try giving me a little kiss on the lips."
"Leann, have you been with a woman before?" It occurred to Leann that Jane probably had but now she felt the need to know.
"Many times," Jane replied.
Leann felt a bit of relief because at least one of them would know what to do so to speak. Jane leaned a bit towards Leann and Leann quickly kissed Jane on the lips.
"Leann, I'm not your Aunt Martha. There needs to be a little more than that."
"I know, I'm scared that's all."
"It's okay."
This time Leann leaned toward Jane and gave her a long soft kiss on her lips. Leann felt a bit of a tingle on her lips and a nice chill ran down her back. She felt pleasantly surprised that she'd actually enjoyed the kiss and decided to give her another just like it. The kisses, at first brief, started to last longer and longer with each succeeding kiss. Leann felt some of her passions stirring. Jane finally put her arms around Jane and drew her in to a long and passion filled kiss. Then she moved her hand up to Leann smallish yet firm breast. Leann reacted by pulling away a bit but as her mind quickly processed what was happening she moved back into Jane's hand. She knew she needed to find out just how much she could do and so far she wasn't repulsed. To the contrary she felt some attraction to Jane now that she hadn't previously felt.
