***************
Last year, I went to Orlando for a business convention. The tech company I work for has a great deal of buying power. Suppliers come from all over the globe to present their company's products.
I'm 38 and constantly in the gym. I have a taste for the finer things and like to dress well.
It was about halfway through the week-long conference and I was getting bored. I had attended this conference a number of times and it gets old after a while. My colleagues and I had dinner and a meet-and-greet in the swanky hotel the conference was held in. Given the reputation of the place, I decided to dress up nice: Italian suit, silk tie, and a blue dress shirt.
I headed down to the event and started mingling. Two women and a gentleman approached me. The two women introduced themselves. They said their names were Lisa and Beth. Beth was there on business for her company. Lisa was a friend of hers there for a free vacation.
Beth walked up and said, "I'm Beth, it's very nice to meet you. And this is my friend Lisa and my husband Mark."
The three of them were dressed nice. All three are in their mid to late 30's. All very attractive.
"What brings you here?" Beth asked.
"I'm a buyer for one of the largest retailers." I replied.
Beth's eyes lit up. From that point forward, Beth was very talkative. She was trying to impress me anyway that she could. Her friend and husband picked up on it and tried to help out. They sensed it must be an important contact for Beth.
We got a few drinks and everyone loosened up a little. Beth finally got to the point and pitched her company's product. She did a good job selling it. She is an excellent salesperson. The three of them were excited and everyone felt the electricity in the air.
I listened politely to Beth's sales pitch but I was getting tired.
"I'm calling it a night. It's been a long day and I need to go relax," I said, stifling a yawn.
Lisa sensed the nervousness as I started to exit the conversation. Beth asked if we could speak again tomorrow. I gave her a non-committal answer. Lisa picked up on my nonchalance and got more active in the conversation. Lisa began asking more personal questions to try to keep my interest. I felt her hand grab mine. Mark, the husband, didn't seem as interested. I noticed him looking around the room. I think Lisa's flirting made him uncomfortable. I think he was worried Beth might also join in. The flirting did make me pause from leaving, but I still wanted to go.
At that point I told them I was tired. I told them I had been standing on my feet all day.
I said, "I have enjoyed meeting you but I'm heading out." Beth immediately asked if we could find a table and sit down. "I'm not so sure, I mean sitting down would be better, but I really need to go," I replied.
Beth and Mark left to go look for and open table. I stood next to Lisa.
I then turned to her and said, "It was nice to meet you. Have your friend give me a call in the next few days." I saw the desperation in Lisa's eyes.
"Please stay a little longer," Lisa said.
I paused for a moment and then said, "I'm heading down to the hot tub. If you want to keep on talking, you and your friends are more than welcome to come join me."
"I think we will do just that," said Lisa.
I left and went right to the hot tub outside. It was empty. I took off my suit and got in with only my boxer briefs on. I relaxed for a moment. Then I heard the click click click of some high heels walking on the pavement. I look up and it's Lisa, Beth, and Mark.
"Looks relaxing" said Beth. They came with a bottle of wine and glasses. I smiled at them.
"I just needed to relax," I said.
It took them a moment to notice I wasn't wearing a swimsuit but my boxer briefs. I noticed both Beth and Lisa taking hard looks.
"I didn't feel like going up to change so I improvised and I'm making my boxer briefs work. Why don't you hop in? The water feels great" I said smiling at Beth.
All three of them were quick to decline. Beth had an awkward look on her face as she looked at Mark while telling me she just can't get it.
"I think we will pass. The water looks inviting but we didn't bring our swimsuits," Beth said. Mark was giving her a stern look.
"Go up and change into them," I said.
"I would but we are staying at a different hotel," Beth said.
I just leaned my head back to relax. I heard them talking but couldn't hear them that well. I really could hear them but played it up as though I couldn't. I kept asked them what they said that I couldn't hear them over the jets of the hot tub.
Beth was still talking to me about her product. She was still trying to close a deal. I admired her persistence. I motioned with my hand to my ear for her to come closer, that I couldn't hear her. She walked closer, right up to the edge of the hot tub. She kneeled down. She was wearing a little black dress. It was about mid-thigh. She had on black 6 inch heels and black thigh highs. When she knelt by the hot tub, her dress rode up just enough for me to see. I turned around to face her. In doing so, my face was then 3 inches from her knee. We were both very close. As I looked at her, I noticed her inner thigh as her thigh high top was exposed. She noticed me looking as well. She did not adjust though. She stayed in that position and smiled.
We talked for a few moments. I touched her ankle.
"This would be so much easier if you just jumped in with me," I said.
I could see her mind working. She looked up at her friend Lisa and her husband Mark. I knew I had her in a hard position, but the way I looked at it, I didn't really care. Either she was going to hop in the hot tub or she was not. I knew that if I were going to have any fun with this situation I had to not care or get emotional about her choice. I kept thinking to myself, I'll just keep pushing this as far as it will go and have fun with it. I had no expectations.
"Ok, I'll get in. Give me just one minute," said Beth.
