Marge and Jeff were on their seventh cruise in the Caribbean. Marge was thirty-eight and Jeff was forty. They had been together for eighteen years and enjoined sailing on cruise lines in the Caribbean. They liked the warm climate, the warm water, and meeting new friends. They tried to sail every year just to be together and have a little romance. They lived in what most people called paradise. They were both professional people who bought land, planted grapes and opened a small winery. Their winery was in a small valley northwest of Napa Valley that was known for their point noir grapes. But, even living in paradise, it was necessary to escape and just be together.
This cruise started in Miami on Sunday and sailed to the Grand Cayman Island. Monday was an "at sea day" and was scheduled to arrive on Tuesday morning. On Monday Marge had scheduled some event and Jeff went to a cooking class. The cooking class was crowded and Jeff sat next to a couple from Ohio, and a very attractive black lady from Las Vegas. Jeff could hear the lady from Ohio talking about her children and the black lady said that she wasn't married but would like to have children too. The woman from Ohio said that she really enjoyed her grandchildren. Jeff made some comments and began talking to both women.
The chef began the class and made a presentation on how to make mushroom soup. Marge came into the room, but there was no seats available, so she stood next to a wall were the black lady from Las Vegas and Jeff sat. The Chef next did a demonstration on how to cook chicken breasts and how to make tiramisu. Jeff and the black lady talk at times during the lessons. She was in her late twenties and had a nice body and dressed well. Her breasts were firm and she had a thin waist and nice ass. Jeff thought that she looked good. Her skin was a light chocolate brown and her smile and sparkling eyes and teeth were her best asset.
Jeff couldn't help but listen as the black lady asked questions to the chef. Although the questions were well asked, they seemed to be unnecessary. Jeff thought that they were only asked to bring attention to herself. Jeff was attracted to her, although he had never been attracted to a black lady before. The way she talked made him feel comfortable and soon he only saw her smooth light brown skin, shapely legs, nice breasts and ass. He wondered what it would be like to make love to her; to touch her skin and feel her breasts.
A wine pairing class was held after the cooking class. Jeff and Marge stayed for the wine pairing and the lady from Lag Vegas left. Later in the day Jeff was looking in a shop with Marge when he ran into the Lady from Las Vegas. She put her arm on Jeff's and introduced herself. She said that her name was Charlotte and she lived in Las Vegas. She said that she hoped Jeff did not think that she was stupid asking so many questions but it just was not that clear to her. Jeff lied and told her that it wasn't that clear to him either, and thought that her questions were very good.
On the third day when the ship reached Cozumel, Marge and Jeff went on a small boat to an all inclusive island resort. They spent the day on the island and returned to Cozumel in the late afternoon. They stopped at a bar near the ship terminal and ordered a rum punch and margarita. While they were drinking, the lady from Las Vegas, Charlotte, came up to Jeff and Marge and said that she had seen them on the ship's TV. They were now famous. She put her hand on Jeff's arm and said that he looked really good in his tuxedo. A black man joined her at another table. He was in his early thirties. He was very handsome and was about six feet four.
Jeff and Marge ordered another drink and Charlotte came over again and put her arm around Jeff and told him that she really enjoyed meeting him in the cooking class and now he was a star on TV. Again she said, "You really look handsome in your tux." She looked at Marge and said..."I bet the women on board won't leave him alone. He looks really hot." Marge smiled and the words only served to inflame Jeff's fantasy to undress her and look at and touch her brown skin. Jeff could not see Charlotte's friend looking over at Marge. He smiled at her and she smiled back.
