I was nervously trembling at the prospect of suggesting to my date what I was considering.
The two of us were still chilling on the couch watching music videos, drinking raspberry vodka with iced tea and taking hits of the bong when buddy texted. I only briefly glanced at the message before a sinking feeling came over me. I didn't expect to hear from him until after my date was done, but things had gone well. We got comfortable and I all but forgot about the potential for this situation to arise. Now that it had, I found myself conflicted.
Do I dare express my innermost desire?
My date was not oblivious to whatever was arising in me. He was very quiet and obviously noted the shift in my mood. He looked inquisitive but didn't broach the subject of who it might be hitting me up this late at night. Or why.
I closed my eyes, took a deep breath, and contemplated whether or not divulging my secret arrangement to my date was in my best interest. The vibe was now off and I felt like I owed him an explanation.
I didn't know where to start explaining the situation. I was scared of just blurting it out. My heart raced and I felt out of breath, my inhales becoming sharper and my exhales morphing into short panting. My sex drive was in high gear. I imagined what could happen, and how hot it would be, but was at a loss for how it could possibly come to be. I had no idea how to set it in motion or what might unfold once I did. What will happen afterwards?
Was I prepared to deal with whatever might transpire if I cross the line into uncharted territory?
At some point the tension became unbearable. I couldn't face my date or look into his eyes. I felt his gaze and sensed his concern. I was overcome with equal measures of shame and sexual craving. I didn't know if I could handle the embarrassment of a rejection or if our still fresh relationship would suffer irreparable damage if I put this naughty idea out there for his consideration.
What if he is into it though? I'll never know unless I find out.
I was weak to this temptation.
Discomfort is the first step in bringing a fantasy to reality.
With that thought at the forefront of my mind, I broke my silence.
"My buddy wants to come over."
"Oh?"
I got straight to the point.
"We have an arrangement. He comes over and lets me go down on him."
I let the words sink in before continuing. I tried to gauge his reaction but he was unflinching, as if he wasn't all that surprised at the revelation that I have a fuck buddy. He remained motionless next to me with a blank expression.
I had no choice but to speak my mind.
"I am wondering if it would interest you to see me and him together like that."
