Ben
When we arrived back at the house, Anne and I said our goodnights and went to our room. Trisha and Tera's things were still there since there had been no time to move. I figured that they would survive for one night and went to bed with my wife. We held each other and kissed, telling each other how much we had missed each other. Then, no more words were needed as we let our bodies communicate our love and need.
We showered and laid back down on our sides, facing each other. We began sharing the details of our time apart. I was a bit concerned about her affection for Tom and Scott, but she was very direct about reassuring me before I asked. I had no concerns about her honesty.
When we both finished telling our stories I was horny as hell and still concerned. Anne reached out and her hand caressed my cheek. "There's something on your mind. Tell me."
I struggled for a moment to find the words. "I'm not worried about the Bradys. It was the right decision to take our relationship to the next level and maybe beyond that. I think we are all happier because of it. I'm not concerned about Lynn's sons, either. I've been with their mother and shared Trisha and Tess with them. It would be hypocritical as hell for me to have an issue with that. Plus, I know you'd have a great time and they would certainly never forget the experience.
"It's the strangers that bother me. I know that you don't feel like they are strangers, but the fact is that you've known them for a few days at most, and I don't know them at all. Is that going to be something you want more of? We've both been changed by this week and I need to know what has changed for you."
A tear ran down Anne's cheek. "No, Baby. I haven't changed, really. I did enjoy my experiences very much but I'm not looking for a lifestyle change. I'm so amazingly happy with our life. An occasional sexual adventure that we can share would be wonderful, and I want to continue what we've found with the Bradys and to some degree, Lynn, Matt, and Mike.
"Looking back on it, Tom and Scott may have been a mistake. I enjoyed being with them very much but there was an element of guilt that I didn't like at all. I never want to feel guilty about something I do sexually. If I feel guilty it means I've done something that might hurt you, and I never want to do that."
I needed to clear the air. "Anne, I really don't have a problem with what happened and I'm happy that you had a wonderful time. It was a special moment in your life. My fear was that you wanted more of that, maybe a lot more, and I don't know if I could accept that. The thought of losing you, because I can't let you live the sexual life you want, destroys me. But letting you go to other men whenever you want would destroy me too. I don't want to feel like I'm your only one, except for when I'm not."
She moved close and her green eyes searched mine. "Ben, I love you with all my heart. I won't lie to you and say I wouldn't like to be with Tom and Scott again someday, but I will give that up without a second thought if it bothers you in any way. The others were party sex, for the lack of a better term.
"I think there are really two things that worry you. The first is my becoming romantically involved with other men. The second is that I would want to jump into a swinger lifestyle.
"As far as a romantic interest other than you goes, that will never happen. Tom and Scott knew the rules going in. They had no expectations and made it clear that I was the one in control. Still, even though I never intended harm or felt anything other than sexual attraction, I've hurt you by being with them. I'm so very sorry for that. I should have realized it was a bridge too far."
I shook my head. "You told me about them before anything happened. Do you remember what I told you? I gave you my blessing and asked that you keep things in perspective. You've done what I asked and you've addressed my concerns. I'm good now. All I needed was to talk to you, to hear you say you still want me above all others.
"That brings me to another big thing. I don't want us to be apart like this again. I understand when the business requires it. I'm talking about sharing our sexual adventures. I don't want to do this stuff if I'm not doing it with you."
Her eyes glistened. "That's exactly what I want."
I nodded. "So, I was thinking. Would you agree that casual sex with the Bradys doesn't require pre-approval?"
Anne never hesitated. "Sure, but we still need to be aware of each other's needs. I wouldn't want you to be left hanging because you came home horny, and I was too tired from fucking Tera all day by the pool. It will probably happen to both of us at some point. We're not insatiable, but I promise I will never take you for granted."
"OK, that works for me. Can we also say that anyone else we talk about first?"
Anne nodded. "Absolutely. When word gets out about you I'll need to hire security guards to keep the women off of you."
"You won't need to. I belong to you and you decide if you want to share me. I would like the same commitment from you. Is that asking too much?"
She kissed my lips. "It's only asking for what you deserve and I wouldn't have it any other way.
We settled in for some romantic kissing and were having a wonderful time when there was a knock on our door, followed immediately by Tess's head peaking around the door. She was grinning. "We need a few things."
