The Mini Cruise Ch 01

Chapter 1 Expectations

Introduction

The main characters in this story are the married couple Lena and John Hendriksen. Lena is 27 years old and a homemaker. John is 31 years old and works as a teacher. They have been married for 5 years and have no children.

Lena became seriously ill during the pandemic and had to stop working. One of the consequences of her illness is that there is little chance she can become pregnant. This has made her afraid. John might leave her for a woman who can contribute financially. More importantly, give him children.

Lena fills her days trying to create the perfect home. Even though their finances are very tight. She also runs every day to maintain her fit body. By nature, she is shy and somewhat reserved. Except in one place: the dance floor. She loves to dance.

She has a very small network and feels vulnerable because of it. John comes from a large family with many siblings, so he is very relaxed about having his own children. Lena struggles to fully trust John when he says this. She constantly worries that his desire for children will become too strong one day.

As a teacher, John had long summer vacations with Lena. But their finances meant they hadn't taken many trips. Not until now, when someone in John's family surprised them with a small 5-day mini-cruise. The boat was departing from their hometown, so they didn't need any additional travel to reach it.

The boat was quite small, with room for about 1000 passengers, cars, and cargo. This didn't dampen Lena's excitement for the trip; she was ecstatic with joy. Finally, they were getting away together.

The day of departure arrived, and the couple boarded the boat with great expectations. To Lena's disappointment, their cabin was below the car deck. The cabin had two single beds that could be folded up and a very small bathroom. In the cabin there where no windows.

John reassured Lena that they would only be sleeping there. They would spend most of their time on the upper decks. Or onshore at the two stops the boat would make. Lena felt somewhat comforted by John's reassuring words.

The boat left the dock and the onboard shops opened. Lena and John bought some snacks and a bottle of wine to enjoy in their cabin. The bottle was quickly emptied. Soon they got ready to take the elevator to the upper decks.

It was late enough that they went straight to the largest club on the boat. There was live music, a bar, and many seating areas. They found a horseshoe-shaped sofa with a table in the middle. Lena sat down and John went straight to the bar. He bought wine for Lena and beer for himself.

When he returned to the table, Lena was no longer alone. Two men in their 30s had sat down at the same table. John immediately saw that Lena was not very comfortable. So he quickly introduced himself and greeted the two men.

"This is my wife Lena, and I am John". Before extending his hand to greet them.

The two men extended their hands and introduced themselves as Max and Robert.

Both were tall men. Robert was broad-shouldered and athletic. Max was more average-looking.

Conversation flowed easily. Lena mostly responded with short sentences. Max and Robert took this trip several times a year. They shared one of the suites on the top deck. John could see the envy in Lena's face when they talked about the spacious suite they had.

After a few more drinks, Lena began to loosen up and dragged John to the dance floor. When the song ended, John went to the bar. Lena returned to the table. There were many people in the bar now. So John had to wait a long time to order. He finally got his wine and bear.

When he returned to the table things had changed. Max and Robert were sitting on either side of Lena. Lena stared straight ahead and had a slightly reddish color in her cheeks. John thought she was just exhausted after dancing. He sat down to chat with the others.

When the others went to the bar, Lena quickly moved over to John. She told him that both of them had placed their hands on her thighs under the table. And that they were still there after John had returned. John took some time to process what Lena had just told him. Then asked for her to repeat it. Lena explained it again in details.

John felt his cock start to harden and got a pleasant feeling in his stomach. It was new for John to get turned on by someone touching his woman. John had to pull himself together. He asked Lena how she was feeling. And how she experienced it. Lena was unsure of what she thought and felt about it. Maybe mostly scared that John would get angry or disappointed.

John quickly reassured Lena that he was not angry or disappointed. But rather proud that she handled it so well. In John's head, many thoughts came up. Maybe it was the alcohol talking when he made a suggestion.

"You should grip your wine glass with both hands if it happens again Lena," Said john with a big smile on his face.

Lena interpreted this as John wanting to protect her. And make sure he would give her an easy way out of it.

So Lena nodded and returned "Ok my dear".

John, on the other hand, felt an increasingly strong arousal building up in his body.

John saw Max and Robert approaching the table. He quickly got up so that the two could sit down on either side of Lena. John sat down again on the opposite side. It didn't take long before Lena clasped her hands around her wine glass. It made John's arousal rise to new heights.

The three men continued talking for several minutes. Lena sat the whole time with her hands around her glass without saying a word. Suddenly she stood up quickly and said she wanted to dance. John was not particularly eager and complained about it. Robert stood up and said he would love to dance with her. Lena looked questioningly at John.

John met her with a big nod and a broad smile. "Go ahead my love".

The two disappeared into the large crowd on the dance floor. While Max and John stayed behind to chat.
