My wife Lisa and I grab our towels and walk down the trail from the river. We walk in silence, and I ponder the events that just took place between us. Her encounter with Arnie, who apparently got too greedy with his hands. The story she told me later, about her encounter with an older man at the beach. And my premature ejaculation, even though I wore a condom.
Back in the cabin the atmosphere between us is tense. No one says anything.
At last she says: "Let's do something fun tonight!" She puts some beers in the fridge and finds a couple of wine bottles in the cupboard. "Why don't you invite Arnie over, and we'll have a few drinks?"
I don't answer. Thoughts are racing through my mind. What is it that she wants to happen? Is she thinking about going through with the stuff Arnie attempted up at the river pool?
"Hello?" she says, clearly annoyed at me. "Could you send a message to Arnie, or what?"
"Do it yourself," I mumble as I sit down on the couch.
"I'm taking a shower," Lisa says. She grabs a towel and a change of clothes from her bag and disappears into the bathroom.
I'm left with my confused thoughts. Sure, I got really aroused by what happened up at the river, where another man swam naked with my wife. And actually tried to slip his cock inside her, with me watching. I got even more aroused by the story she told me about after that. That time when she was nineteen and got picked up and fucked by a stranger that was more than twenty years older than her. But, does all this mean I'm losing her now? I can't let her get stolen by my childhood friend, well, bully, right in front of my eyes.
A loud ping from the table interrupts my thoughts. Lisa has left her iPad there. I look at the screen and see that it's a message from Arnie. What the hell? He must have looked her up on messenger and added her as a contact. I open the message. And I'm shocked.
It turns out that Lisa is the one that added him, and sent the first message. From her phone, which she apparently brought with her to the shower. She doesn't know that I can see the messages on her iPad.
Her first message: "Hi Arnie! Fun meeting you earlier π" A winking smiley, no less.
Arnie's reply is short: "Yeah hi".
Then my wife sends a picture. A selfie. And the text: "Do you think my boobs are too small, honestly?" The picture is taken in our bathroom, right now. They show her firm, tiny tits.
The reply: "No comment π".
"Why don't you come over," my wife messages. "So we can discuss it π"
"Not much to discuss," Arnie replies. "Anything else on offer?"
My wife replies with a picture, no text. An image of her body shown from the side in the bathroom mirror. Not too revealing, but she's without panties."
"I'll see what I can manage," Arnie replies.
When Lisa finally emerges from the bathroom, she's like a total stranger. She's put on a black miniskirt and a pretty short and tight tank top. She's wearing makeup, which she never normally does. Mascara. We don't talk. She pours herself a glass of white wine. I realize that my wife is a stranger to me now, and I have no idea what's going to happen next.
An hour later Arnie arrives. My wife giggles like a teen girl, welcoming him, fetching him a beer. Arnie must notice the strained atmosphere between Lisa and I. But he doesn't care. He's just received nude pics from this chick he's barely met. He's in full control.
