The following day Neil and Polly slept late, both surfacing from separate rooms at around noon. Even though Polly had assured him that Dave would be completely happy with the situation, Neil had suggested that it would not be proper to spend the entire night together while Dave was unaware of the situation. Sitting together in the expansive kitchen, they both enjoyed the good meal Polly had prepared. Neil was ravenous and ate heartily while Polly watched him with an amused smile.
"God, Neil. Do you always eat like that after sex?" she laughed
"Mmmm. Yes I suppose so. Especially with a woman as beautiful as you!"
"Flattery will get you everywhere"
Dave stopped eating for a moment and looked serious. "But, you know, I'm still a little guilty. Dave is my brother and I've just made love to his wife. The situation is weird to say the least."
"Well, if it makes you feel any better Neil, I spoke to Dave early this morning and told him the whole story"
Neil stopped in mid chew with his fork half way to his mouth and looked at Polly in wonder.
"Wh..wh...what?" he mumbled
"I told you, it's fine. Dave is totally cool with all this" she reassured him, "we have a totally open relationship, I think that's what keeps it so special. Anyway, He's taken his pretty little assistant with him on this trip and I don't suppose she is just there to take notes and hold his hand, do you?"
"Wow, I never realised. And you're ok with that?
"Sure. Don't get me wrong we're not sleeping around, but Dave spends a lot of time away these days, and I for one cannot go for long without a good fuck!"
"So what happens now?" said Neil
"Well, Dave wants us to call him tonight. Together. He must have an idea for something!" she replied with a wicked grin.
The rest of the day passed fairly uneventfully. Polly busied herself with various household chores while Neil took advantage of the hot climate and lounged around the pool in the back yard with a good book. As much as Neil tried to concentrate on his reading, his mind kept wandering back to the events of the night before. The temperature outside was topping 80 degrees, and as he replayed the incident in his mind, the combination of heat and his own excitement began to tell on him. What made matters worse (or better!) Was that Polly was now outside watering the plants wearing only a tiny high-cut bikini.
"Time to cool of a little!" thought Neil to himself as, trying to hide a growing erection, he stood and jumped into the pool. The cool water having the desired effect, Neil started swimming furiously from one end of the pool to the other. Back and forth he swam feeling his muscles stretch and putting every ounce of energy into his strokes. As he finally surfaced at one end of the pool, he shook the water from his short dark hair and looked up. Polly had finished watering the flower beds and was watching him.
"Come on in" said Neil with a grin "It's a great way to cool off!"
Polly smiled warmly showing her perfect white teeth "No. I don't want to get my hair wet....and any way, we don't want you using up all your strength now!"
Neil was about to ask her what she meant, but she had already turned her back and was flouncing off towards the house.
"Dinner in an hour, OK?" she called back over her shoulder.
The conversation that evening flowed freely, the two chatting away about a variety of subjects. Neil insisted on clearing away after the meal, and after loading the dishwasher went to join his sister-in-law in the lounge. Polly had opened another bottle of wine and the two sat comfortably and continued talking. After a while, Polly drained her glass and announced that she was going to take a quick shower. Now sitting by himself, Neil flicked on the TV and scanned the channels eventually settling on a football game. After half an hour, he was well into the game and did not hear Polly enter the room and only noticed when she sat next to him.
"Aahhhhh football" she groaned
Neil turned his attention away from the TV. Polly was sitting very close. The aroma from her freshly washed hair was intoxicating and she had changed her clothes. Neil let his eyes drift over her body. She now wore a white silk blouse and faded blue jeans. It was obvious that she had not bothered with a bra and he could clearly see the outline of her breasts and nipples though the sheer fabric. Her blonde hair was still damp and tied back in a pony tail and she was barefoot. She leaned towards him and lightly kissed his lips.
"I think we should call David now" she whispered "he's expecting our call."
The telephone was next to the sofa where they both sat, and Polly leaned back and hit the speed dial and hands-free buttons. Neil could once again feel his apprehension rising as he heard the ringing tones and then a familiar voice answer.
"Hello?"
"Hello, darling it's me!" said Polly. The connection and the phone's loud speaker were good, Neil could hear both sides of the conversation easily.
"Hey baby, how are you today beautiful?"
"Oh we're both great here" replied Polly "You doing ok?"
"Yeah, not bad. But my assistant Jane has gone out for the day with a few of the girls, so I'm all alone!"
"Ahh..poor baby's all by himself!" said Polly in mock sympathy
Neil though he should join the conversation
"Hey bro! How's things"
"Neil!...great to hear your voice man. Just fine thanks."
