"I'm not angry, just disappointed. You know that I have really been looking forward to this break."
Cathy's struggled not to cry as she knew that this would only upset her husband Steve, who was as disappointed as she was that an urgent meeting with a very important client was going to force him to miss a much anticipate long weekend away together.
Both Cathy and Steve worked in high pressure jobs and all too often, work interfered with their private lives. Climbing the corporate ladder had its consequences and being at the beck and call of their respective employers was just one of them.
"Well, I guess that is it then. I'll see you tonight. Love you."
Cathy hung up her phone and stared blankly out the sliding glass door that led to the back patio and the swimming pool.
The weekend away had been long in the planning. A three-day break at a resort hotel, by the beach about 2 hours' drive north. The accommodation was paid for and at this late stage would be forfeited if cancelled. Money was not the main concern. The last year had been particularly busy for both, and precious time together was in short supply. Mentally, Cathy was primed for the holiday. She had bought new outfits, including a bikini that stretched the bounds of decency and in fact had her a little worried about wearing around the resort pool. But she knew that Steve would love it. Cathy was a very fit 32-year-old, long blond hair and blessed with what could rightfully be called, perfect breasts. She was tall at 5 foot 10, just a bit shorter than Steve. Together, they stood out in a crowd, not just because of their physical attributes, but they were both open and fun and the first on the list when planning a party.
Cathy went to the fridge and poured herself a glass of white wine.
Stepping through the door to the back patio, she placed her glass on the table and undressed. She had arrived home from work only an hour previously and had quickly divested herself of her corporate attire, replaced simply with a long t shirt, with no need for underwear.
Naked, she stood on the edge of the pool, the last golden rays of sunshine filtering through the trees, casting long shadows across the private backyard that afforded the luxury of swimming nude. Her skin matched the rays of the sun, a healthy full body tan acquired from time around the pool and visits to the nearby clothing optional beach. Nudity was something that she and Steve practiced religiously and only added to her disappointment of cancelling the holiday, as there were plans to drive to a nearby clothing optional beach.
Elegantly, Cathy launched from the pool's edge with a graceful swan dive and rose to the surface and stroked languidly to the far end of the pool. She turned and floated blissfully on her back, water lapping at her breasts, her nipples hardening a little, perhaps from the coolness of the water, but more likely from the sheer, sensuous joy of being naked.
Her mind was still preoccupied with the disappointment of the cancelled break. Not only would they not be enjoying a long weekend away, but now she was going to be languishing at home alone while Steve was working. It just seemed so unfair.
Cathy swum to the ladder and climbed out of the pool, returning to her sunlounge and her glass of wine. She sipped it slowly, its magical qualities relaxing her and relieving the tensions of the day's work. She returned to the fridge and poured herself a second glass and headed back to the comfort of the sunlounge. She closed her eyes drifted into a light sleep.
"Honey," said Steve, gently tapping her on the shoulder so as not to startle her from her slumber.
Cathy slowly opened her eyes to see her husband standing above her. The sun was setting, so Cathy guessed that Steve had come straight from work, and she had perhaps been asleep for about an hour.
"Oh, hi darling," Cathy replied drowsily, "I must have been more tired than I thought, dropping off like that."
"I'm not surprised, babe, I know that you have had a busy week at work. Here let me get you another glass of wine," said Steve taking her glass and heading to the kitchen, returning with a glass for himself as well.
He placed his glass on the table and began to undress. It was still very warm, and Cathy knew that Steve loved a swim after work. She watched, admiring his muscular frame. Steve had membership of a gym very close to his work and made the time to attend a few days a week, in the mornings. He said it cleared his mind and had him fresh to start the day.
Steve walked to the pool's edge and dived in. He glided under water and with one breath, made it to the opposite end. He swum back to where Cathy was seated.
"Coming in?" he enquired, as he pushed away, floating on his back.
Cathy got up from her lounge, walked to the pool ladder and gently lowered herself into the refreshing water. She swam towards Steve, catching up to him and throwing her arms around his neck and placed a passionate kiss on his lips. Steve responded, taking her tightly in his arms, his tongue darting into Cathy's mouth, their lips entwined.
With their bodies locked together, Cathy could feel Steve's cock growing and pressing against her. She reached down and took it in her hand, gently rubbing its length, thrilling to the sensation of it expanding in her grip. Her hardened nipples were pressing into Steve's chest, and she felt the pleasant, warming feeling developing in her pussy.
Steve turned her around and guided her to the edge of the pool. Cathy spread her legs and felt the tip of Steve's long, thick cock, part her pussy lips and slowly force its way into her welcoming cunt. Slowly he pumped, teasingly pulling back and plunging in, building a steady rhythm as his hands wrapped around her, massaging her large soft breasts.
Cathy's breath quickened. Steve's cock glided effortlessly inside her hot, moist vagina.
Steve nibbled on Cathy's neck, knowing that was one of her favourite erogenous zones. He could feel tightening around his cock, a sure sign to him that she was approaching an orgasm.
For his part, Steve was in full arousal too.
"I'm cumming babe, oh yes, yes," he whispered in her ear, as his thrusting increased in tempo.
"Fuck yeah," was all Cathy could respond as her body was convulsed in a surging climax, her body pushing back as hard as she could against Steve's now throbbing cock. Steve held her tightly, their bodies as one as the passion of their lovemaking overtook them. With heaving breaths, they stood as they came down from their sexual high.
"I love you babe," Cathy managed to finally say.
"I love you more," Steve replied with all honesty.
They floated for a while then both made their way back to the sunlounges and the waiting glasses of wine.
"Honey," Steve finally spoke up, "I had an idea about this holiday. I'm shattered that work has got in the way, but I'm more disappointed that it means that you are missing out on a well-earned break. Why not ask your brother Greg to take my place. I'm sure he would love to go, and he is a teacher so he is on a break now anyway. I can't see what would stop him."
Cathy sat silently and did not answer straight away. The thought had not occurred to her but there was certainly merit in the idea. Greg was her older brother, by 2 years and the same age as Steve. She adored Greg as many little sisters do their big brothers. They were very close growing up and remained so, with Greg always having time for her and included her in social occasions with his friends. She looked across to Steve.
"I don't know babe, I was so looking forward to going with you. It was going to be our little getaway. It wouldn't be the same," Cathy replied somewhat despondently.
"Of course it wouldn't be the same. But it is all paid for. It would be a shame just to waste it. We can go another time soon. And you and Greg get on so well. I reckon you will have a ball," Steve enthused.
Steve was right on all counts, Cathy thought to herself. Yes, I would love to spend some time with Greg and yes, why just throw money away. And yes, why sit at home and mope when I could be having a good time.
"Hmmm, well, I guess it could work," Cathy replied after reflection. "I'll give him a call and see what he says. I'll do it now."
