First Time Swingers

Linda and Frank sat at the table in their favorite restaurant with a glass of wine in front of them. They had just ordered their meal and now toasted their nineteenth wedding anniversary. This was a second marriage for both of them. The first being more of a business partnership than an actual marriage. Sex had not been a part of either of their first marriages after the second year. They each had grown children from their previous marriages, but were estranged from everyone associated with their former lives.
Both Linda and Frank wanted more from life than just working away to pay the bills and waiting to die. They discovered each other twenty years ago and for the first time learned how to laugh. They also discovered the joy their bodies could provide as a toy when you had a playmate. They taught each other the joys of just wasting time also the stimulation of seeing each other's naked bodies.
The year of dating broke down a lot of barriers and they decided to take the extreme risk of marrying for a second time. They explored the various aspects of sex that neither of them had even heard of before. They bought books, watched videos, and tried to duplicate what they read and saw, within reason of course. It was fun for the first several years, then they ran out of ideas and they both feared a repeat of their previous marriages where sex is forgotten and life is reduced to doing the necessary with no time for the fun.
Their seventh anniversary was a turning point for them. They sat down and had a long and honest conversation about their fears of where their marriage was headed and how if was starting to feel just like what they had tried to leave behind. After and day and a night of tearful talks they decided to take their lives back under their control and to step outside of their comfort zones. They had read and watched enough to know that there was more to sex than just the vanilla flavor they experienced.
The most they have ever done was about half a dozen different positions, erotic massages to include masturbating each other, and they enjoyed oral. They both felt that was as kinky as either of them would go.
They bought more books and videos and set out to try new things. After a week of reading and watching activities that neither Linda nor Frank thought they would ever do, they decided they had to pick one to try and if they didn't like it they would stop it and look for something else. They decided to try spanking each other with the promise not to spank too hard and only with an open hand.
Linda asked Frank to spank her first since she was the woman and most of the videos they watched had the woman being spanked.
Linda slowly positioned herself over Frank's lap and he delivered a soft slap.
"I barely felt that," she commented, "You can spank me harder."
Frank delivered another slap on the other cheek a bit harder," like that?" he questioned.
"Harder," was her response.
This simple exploration set the stage for their foray into the vast world of sexual activities. Over the next several years spanking had become one of the fetishes they both enjoyed. Linda often found things she could do that would require her to be spanked. They developed a bit of role-playing as well. She was often the schoolgirl who forgot her homework, or the housewife who forgot to make dinner.
It was times like these where she often wore a short flared skirt and no panties when she confessed her indiscretions to Frank. Frank loved the feel of her naked bottom under his hand and would caress her soft warm flesh between slaps. She wiggled her butt under his hand encouraging his fingers to explore her recesses.
Frank also experienced being bent over and feeling the slap of her hand on his naked backside. They found an online adult store where they bought a flogger and found they both enjoyed the sting it provided. They also discovered a few more sexual positions.
Their new found kink kept them both happy and content for another several years until the sameness brought about another bout of boredom and with it a lack of sexual activity.
One day Linda brought up their complacency and reminded Frank of how they handled it the last time. Again there was the hopelessness and the fear that they were doomed to repeat the life they had been trained to accept since early childhood. It didn't take an all day/all night tear-fest this time. Frank remembered a video he'd seen when they discovered spanking. It was about a female dominatrix dressed in revealing leather.
Linda liked the idea of her taking total control, so within a couple of weeks a package arrived in a plain brown wrapper containing her new outfit. It was a corset the left her breasts exposed, black fishnet hose that attached to the bottom of the corset, and a mask. She had also bought a pair of black high-heeled shoes to complete the outfit. She tried on the new costume and grabbed the flogger.
Their new games kept them occupied for a couple more years until they needed more. That is when the bondage started. First Frank wore handcuffs and a mask while on his knees servicing Linda. That expanded to Linda being tied and fondled while blindfolded. They pushed their limits and learned the use of a safe word.
They had a good run of keeping sex exciting and fun, but now it was their nineteenth wedding anniversary and it was time to find something new. They sat across from each other each holding a glass of wine and knowing that some new sexual kink was close to becoming part of their lives.
"Happy anniversary sweetie," Linda said to man with the silver hair seated across from her.
"Happy anniversary honey," Frank responded. "I know we've been slowing down on our play time recently and I think it's time to talk about adding something new to our toy box."
"I agree, but I thought we would talk about it at home later tonight,"
"Why wait?" Frank questioned with a gleam in his eye.
"You've got something in mind, don't you? Does it involve us being out in public?" she asked suddenly becoming excited.
"I do and it's something we talked about before, and found intriguing. We weren't ready for it then and it was a bit scary. Now, we might be ready if we ease into it slowly." Frank explained.
In a hushed voice Linda asked, "are you talking about the video we saw where couples swapped partners?"
Frank flashed a smile indicating a level of arousal, "Yes, but I don't think we're ready for that just yet, but we could build up to it."
Linda felt her face start to color as she considered this taboo activity, "how would we build up to being with other people?"
"I was thinking we could start by flirting with others and you could start wearing clothes that are a bit more revealing." Frank shared. It was obvious that he had given this a lot of thought.
Just then the waiter brought out their food and Linda found herself getting more aroused thinking that the waiter had overheard their conversation about having sex with other people.
The topic was dropped and they enjoyed their dinner. They both commented about how their lives had changed for the better since they met. They might not live in a large expensive house or have the most expensive car on the block or for that matter live in the most exclusive neighborhood, but they were happy and they interacted with several of their neighbors. They both agreed that the last nineteen years had been the happiest of their lives and looked forward to the next nineteen, or how many years they had left.
Over the next several days the idea of finding another couple became a topic of conversation a few times. Neither knew how to find suitable partners, but they were enjoying the game they invented of considering what sex would be like with people they either knew or saw while shopping. They watched several videos of the swinging lifestyle and Linda stopped wearing a bra. She was lucky in that she was not overly top heavy and going braless was actually more comfortable for her. Frank liked the new look and took notice whenever he saw other men checking her out. He also pointed out the fact to her when someone had noticed her braless state. Her nipples often hardened whenever Frank informed her of another man checking her out. She sometimes turned to give the stranger a better view.
One of their neighbors decided to throw a birthday party for her husband. He just turned 75 and had complained that they rarely had anyone over anymore. His wife invited Frank and Linda plus another couple they had known for years. They decided not to invite any of their family since that party had already taken place at their daughter's house on his actual birthday.
Linda and Frank knew Tom and Carol from the time they had moved in nineteen years ago and often exchanged cookies and cakes at holidays. They were neighbors and helped each other out when needed, but had never been close friends. Linda thought Tom was cute and he was one of the fantasy men she talked about having sex with. Frank likewise imagined Carol naked. Neither Tom nor Carol seemed interested in talking about sex. The two couples never even hugged each other.
Frank asked Linda if she wanted to push the envelope a bit and actively flirt with Tom.
"I'm not sure," she hedged, "Tom and Carol are our neighbors and I wouldn't want to give Carol any reason to get mad at me."
"You have been going braless for almost a month now and Tom has checked you out more than once. I even noticed Carol going out of her way to talk with me and that never happened before." Frank observed.
"You think they might be interested in joining in our playtime?" Linda asked.
"I'm not ready to say one way or the other, but a bit a flirting could be fun." Frank said.
Linda decided to upgrade her wardrobe and headed out to the mall. She knew she enjoyed the braless look and wanted to try it with tops that were thinner so that her nipples would be more evident. She also wanted to try tops that were more see-through. She added a couple of very short skirts and two pair of very tight shorts to her purchases.
She arrived home excited to show off her new clothes to her husband. Frank loved her new look and asked, "Are you planning to wear the see-through top to Tom's party?"
"I'm not sure, but I do want to wear them out in public," she shared.
"Put on the green one and those shorts. We are going for a walk around the neighborhood," Frank directed.
