Dotty slammed the front door so fucking hard the window shattered and shards of glass flew across the porch, landing at my feet.
For some reason my mood shifted from the outright rage I had felt before to an tightly enforced calm.
There lay an easy goddamn 100 dollar bill worth of repairs on my porch, no fucking reason for it at all, just stupid shit.
I managed to quell the thoughts of going back inside and just popping her right in her fucking teeth, instead, I turned and simply walked away.
I was on the two lane highway headed inland, not exactly cruising along either. The 1971 Chevelle I was driving had all the tricks, dual exhaust, headers, huge 4 barrel. The engine shop had reworked the valves and ports, I had rebuilt the suspension with heavy duty all the way.
The one place in the world I found peace anymore was behind the wheel working the machine. I set her into a long sweeping turn, letting the rear end break traction, then fed the throttle to hold her there, rear tires bawling.
Yes, somehow it calmed me, maybe I missed my calling?
Finally after a few miles of that, I slowed down, the tears that suddenly flooded my eyes made it tough to see.
For weeks my Dotty had been this way, yelling and screaming, I almost hated to come home from my back breaking job loading bundles in box cars.
It all had started at that goddamn party. I didn't even want to go, I was tired from my day and the idea of sitting on my ass watching a movie with Dotty, playing with her nice soft little titties and then taking a hot bath together and fucking ourselves senseless sounded damn good to me.
But of course her days are cooped up in the house. Cleaning and moving things around near as I can tell are boring to her. She keeps a good house so there is almost never anything to clean or move. So she knows the names and histories of ever goddamned soap opera actor there is.
Jerry and Tina are sort of friends of ours. You know the kind I mean, they show up at backyard barbeques, the beach sometimes, maybe even at the movies. It is a "Howya doing?" and then off our own ways most of the time. Sometimes we end up at a bar sucking down drinks, but all they ever talk about is sex.
Jerry is a bit on the fat side, and it wouldn't hurt him any to brush his teeth a bit more often, maybe shave once a day instead of twice a week.
Tina is an exotic looking little thing and I do mean little, I would guess maybe 4'10" tops. Her butt is snug and her tits are firm and she knows it and does her best to show it off, too.
Yea, I am male, when she bends over to pick something up, I look. That pisses Dotty off if she catches me so I try to be careful.
We arrived at the goddamn party at Jerry and Tina's place, Jerry opened the door, grabbed Dotty and gave her a big hug. Then he reached out and shook my hand before I had time to get pissed at his mashing my wife's tits against his chest.
The party was in full swing, several people I didn't know were working a bong on the coffee table. I never touch the stuff, neither does Dotty but in a little room like that it was getting to us anyway. I could tell because Dotty's eyes turned red and she began to giggle at everything anyone said.
Several hours went by normally, I got the usual sly suggestions from Tina every time she got me cornered. Some guy named Bill was trying to hit on Dotty and getting nowhere at all, that was almost funny to watch because he was such a stupid ass about it.
I mean, come on! Bow and kiss the back of her hand at a goddamned neighborhood party?
As it got late I was thinking about the bath together with Dotty and a nice roll in the hay, then sleep in until fucking noon the next day wrapped up in her soft body.
I needed to take a piss before I made the drive home, I had managed to stay fairly sober in spite of everyone's best efforts but I still had 3 beers backed up in me.
Jerry and Tina have lots of parties, and I guess they don't like people puking and pissing all over their personal bathroom, so he had built a guest bathroom at the end of a little hall. It was odd because walking in it looked just like what you would find in a local nightclub, complete with urinal.
I was standing at the urinal, feeling a bit woozy, so I leaned my forehead against the wall to steady myself. That was when I heard a noise. I finished up and zipped up, turned and there stood Tina.
Unlike Dotty, I never lock the bathroom door, don't even think about it. She always does, even at home because she is on the modest side. So much so that we were dating for 3 months before I got to see her naked in the light, she always changed in our bathroom and came to bed in the dark. Funny but once I did see her naked, she lost all of the modesty after that. But she did still lock the bathroom door.
Anyway, I should have locked the fucking bathroom door.
Tina more or less advanced on me as I more or less retreated, until my butt was against the countertop by the sink, no place else to go. Tina reached down with both hands and grabbed her top and pulled it up and off.
I don't know how women can do that, reach over both shoulders with the opposite arms and grab, but they do. Crazy that this popped into my head right then, I was looking for a way to escape at the same time.
Next thing I know Tina was down on her knees tugging at my pants and I was using my hands to try and push her away and keep my pants done up and ....
You guessed it, Dotty walked in!
Great. Just try to explain that you are perfectly innocent when some bimbo with her tits swinging free is down on her knees in front of you and it looks like you are in the process of UNDOING your goddamn pants, not trying to keep them on like I really was doing.
Dotty let out a scream and was gone like a shot, I pushed Tina aside and headed out the door after her, having to stop and fix the buckle on my belt. That little bitch had quick hands, she damn near got them off me.
Sure, I could have just coldcocked her but that would have been a little much.
Dotty was gone, out the door, lord knows where. I jumped in my Chevelle and took off looking, up and down the side streets, I must have gone around the block 30 times, no sign of her.
I drove to our house, no Dotty, now I was getting scared. I waited for a good half hour, hell it was only 6 blocks to our house, no Dotty.
So I got in the car and headed back over to Jerry and Tina's place. It was pretty quiet when I got there, I walked inside and looked around. Bottles were everywhere, that Bill guy was out cold on one of the couches. I went down the hall to see if I could find Jerry, ask him if he knew where Dotty was.
I pushed open one bedroom door, it was dark but I could make out Jerry, he was up on top of Tina and they were having sex, so I started to close the door.
Then I heard a moan and that wasn't Tina. I knew who it was!
I shoved the door back open, reached over and hit the light. It was Jerry, he was on top of my Dotty and he didn't even stop when the lights came on. Dotty looked over at me, the expression wasn't from being in the throes of sex, it was one of anger.
I turned and walked out, got in my car and went home.
It was around 8 AM when someone was shaking me awake, it was Dotty. She was yelling something, it took a minute for my head to clear, then I realized she was screaming at me about the fucking slut that I was screwing and on and on.
I rolled over and sat up, when she slowed down to catch a breath, I told her that I had seen her and that fat ass Jerry. She didn't even blink, just screamed at me that I had it coming and that she was going to "Fuck ALL of my friends!" then she stormed out.
I sat there with my head in my hands as memories of the night before came flooding back. I felt like crap, too, much worse than I should have considering just three beers.
I got dressed, went out and got in my car and left. Dotty wasn't there when I got back, so I washed up, then fixed some eggs and bacon. That made me feel better but not much.
Dotty came home later that day, she just walked in and by me like I wasn't there. I tried several times over the next few weeks to sit and talk, explain, I got nowhere. The minute I mentioned the scene in the bathroom Dotty would explode into a rage and start screaming and swearing.
I pretty much gave up, it was easier.
I suppose some men would go off the deep end, the fact that Dotty had had sex didn't bother me as much as who she had sex with, I just could not see her spreading her legs for Jerry. When we were dating, we weren't exactly an item. We liked each other and had fun together, but I know for a fact that Dotty had at least a half dozen different guys that were coming around, and I didn't have any real shortage either.
Somewhere in there we had just slowly become more and more together and we both did less and less of the sowing our oats with others.
Our engagement was real romantic, one day I mentioned that we were together so much we might as well be married, she smiled and said, "OK!" and that was how that happened.
Yep, that was it. We found a little house, met with a Justice of the peace, took a short trip to Las Vegas and then we were home and together.
There was none of this promise to be true to each other or any of that, we had both been around the block and back and we both knew about each other's antics during the last few years before we got married. None of that even came up, I was faithful and completely content with it, Dotty seemed the same way.
One thing about Dotty though, she loved sex as much as me, we did everything. She gave magic hand jobs that would cross my eyes, I poked her with about everything I could think of that would fit. We did experiment with oral sex but it really wasn't our thing, what we usually did was get down to serious fucking and we did that a lot. I could make her eyelids flutter by gently rolling the tips of her nipples between my thumb and forefinger, if I kept it up for awhile her titties would flatten out and turn pinkish. Then she would let out what was almost a growl and roll me over and climb on top.
Our life was pretty good, I suppose the word is...normal?
Until that fucking party.
I should have known, I admit I liked getting peeks at Tina, she really was a nasty looking thing and over the years that Dotty and I knew Jerry and Tina I will bet I saw both of her tits from 30 different angles. Plus a few times I saw her bare snatch when she would bend over in one of her tiny short skirts, sometimes with a wisp of panties and sometimes nothing at all.
Then there were the quiet comments when no one was real close to us about "trying me out" and shit like that.
I tried to ignore that without simply insulting her. Hell, if I was single I would have jumped her bones in a New York minute but I was married and it mattered to me.
No amount of trying to explain to Dotty got me anywhere at all, so we settled down to tolerating each other. No sex, no nothing, I was miserable.
I even blamed myself for letting myself get into that situation, Dotty had made a couple of derogatory comments about Tina being a slut so I knew she was off limits in any event.
I was smart enough to keep my mouth shut, in the back of my mind I wanted things back to the way they were. It wasn't looking very good, though.
