Kim, my wife's friend from North Dakota. She came to stay with us for a week. We're all in our mid 40's, and Kim wanted a break from her marriage that, according to her, may be falling apart. To hear her tell it, she couldn't really care. It was her second marriage and both had grown children from previous marriages with no kids between the two of them. Eleven years with this husband was more than enough according to Kim.
She had come and stayed with us a few years ago, that being the first time I met her. I can honestly say I was happy to see her leave then. She seemed to be trying to make it a 'guys-vs-girls' thing for the week that she was here, making her stay very awkward feeling for me. It was like she could sense-and liked-the tension she created, which only made me look forward to her departure from our lives. Now she's back so I planned on staying busy with some remodeling chores I'd been putting off around the house.
Kim's a typical mid 40's looking woman. She has blonde hair, but it's nothing spectacular. She has an average looking body, with the exception of being a bit more top heavy than most women her age. She's a little curvaceous with a few extra pounds that the passing of time tends to add. She's not ugly, but she wouldn't win any beauty contests either.
The last time Kim had come to stay, my wife, Tabitha, and I had only been married a couple years, so my eyes didn't wander much in those days. I was very partial to my wife then which probably fueled a little of my resentment towards Kim, given her attitude, on that first visit.
As anyone who's been married for any amount of time knows, the fire starts to fade over the years, and your eyes begin to notice the 'scenery' a bit more.
The first evening Kim was here on this visit, we went out to eat. Something me and the wife don't do a whole lot of anymore, at least not during the week as we both get in fairly late in the day from work. The night wasn't as bad as I remembered it being from Kim's previous visit. Although, I will admit, I'd found myself taking notice of her more now than last time too. She didn't have that 'men suck' attitude she seemed to have had before. My wife had also mentioned before, that by marrying her, I was 'stealing' her away from her life-long friend. Perhaps now Kim realizes that wasn't my plan as I'm not one to keep tabs on my wife. Tabitha comes and goes as she pleases, after all, it's a free country.
Back home sfter dinner, we settled down in front of the TV. I was in my usual spot on one end of the couch, with my wife on the love seat. This is just the normal routine we'd fallen into. Kim made her way into the living room and took her spot at the opposite end of the couch from me as it afforded the most room to sit.
I had the remote and was scrolling through Netflix while my wife scrolled through her phone, this being our typical behavior on any night. It always seems to me that Netflix, or any of these movie/show apps, have a ton of stuff but nothing to watch. I glance over at Kim sitting there with her phone in hand and notice she is wearing snug, thin looking shorts and a big t-shirt. From this angle there is a lot of curvy thigh on display and I can't help thinking how I'd missed that on her first visit. My initial reaction was to immediately glanse in my wife's direction and see if she noticed me noticing her friend.
Women and their phones, Tabitha wouldn't have noticed the house burning down. I quickly turn my attention back to the thigh to my left when I was met with a raised eyebrow and a look that said 'I see you looking'.
I proceed to hand her the remote and say, "I can't find anything to watch, why don't you give it a go".
Kim takes the remote, all the while giving me that knowing look, her eyes darting over to my wife a time or two as if to say 'you shouldn't be looking at me like that'. I just look at her like I couldn't care, and pick up my own phone.
Kim wanders through the offerings, most of which we'd seen, or didn't want to see. I can't stop myself from sneaking side-glances in Kim's direction, using my peripherals to judge when the coast is clear...I think most any guy has this activity down to a science.
I began to wonder if the shorts were the only thing she was wearing on her bottom half, getting a bit aroused at the thought of 'what if?'
In the middle of that thought is where Kim caught me looking at her again. In an attempt to cover my actions, I asked her if she'd found anything for us to watch yet.
"Looks like you have," She replies low enough that I know it was meant for only me to hear.
I look towards my wife to see if she is picking up on any of this. The way she is squinting to see her phone lets me know she hasn't heard a thing.
I turn my attention back to my own phone while occasionally looking up at the TV to see what Kim has going on. I can see she is now checking out documentaries. That is one of my go-to categories, but I know that is something Tabitha couldn't care less about. No big deal anyway, this time of the evening she would start snoring fifteen minutes into whatever we tried to watch regardless.
Damn, that thigh is still on display...now all the way up the side of Kim's right ass-cheek. Did she pull the side of her shorts up higher when I wasn't looking?
Fuck, I'm starting to get a little turned on as I once again ask myself the question of 'panties, or no panties?'
Looking up I see I'm being noticed again. I just give Kim an emotionless look, dart my eyes down to that thigh/side-cheek display, then back to her face, silently letting her know 'I'm a guy and that's an ass'.
With the mannerism of a teacher trying to give a silent warning to a student, she gives me that stern big-eyed 'You're a married man and shouldn't be looking' look.
I just look back at my phone like nothing matters. Only problem is now I'm intrigued. I find that I'm more interested in her than I ever had an inkling that I would be.
"Here we go," Says Kim suddenly. She's decided on what my wife will most surely fall asleep to, a Christmas movie with Kurt Russell in it.
To be honest, me and the wife have already seen it awhile back, but neither of us say anything to give this information away.
The movie starts, and Tabitha closes out her phone and lays it on the end table. I've still got my phone in hand, scrolling mindlessly through Facebook at the same posts I've already seen a thousand times...but feel compelled to do again.
Kim lays the remote on the couch between us and puts her feet up under her ass, leaning over towards the left side arm of the couch as she does. This has the added effect of pointing her ass a little more in my direction. Dammit, that ass cheek is showing even more so now, she's got to be doing this on purpose just to mess with me.
I look over at the wife as I pull the handle that engages the recliner, built in recliners being the reason why I chose this particular couch and love seat setup.
Tabitha grabs her pillow and blanket she keeps handy, and turns long-ways on the love seat while putting the pillow behind her head and covering up with the blanket.
I glance over at Kim and see her watching my wife. Without saying anything I point to another blanket, just to her left, on a bench under the window.
She gets up to grab that blanket and I check out her ass as she does. A quick look is all I chance, but it's enough for me to see there are indeed no panty lines on this woman. Now I'm getting horny.
I watch, nonchalantly, as Kim hops back on the couch with the blanket now covering up anything worth seeing. Probably for the best, I tell myself.
The movie takes off and sure enough, Tabitha is snoring within minutes. Even Kim looks over at her, then at me, before giving a quiet little laugh.
"No different than any other night," I say to Kim, as much as to myself.
"Does she always snore so loud?" She asks.
