Since the "incident" with my mother in law, she had not been allowed back into our home. Carla seemed to be far happier by this and our relationship had been smoother than ever before. Unfortunately, I had experienced and uptick in work, when coupled with my gym regimen I was seeing far less time with my wife than I wished. This also did not help our renewed sex life, the tension between us was beginning to build again.
I had attempted to nip this in the bud and suggested we open up our relationship. This was met with immediate dismissal and did the opposite of my hopes. The irony hadn't been lost on me with what I had asked, however we were both adults and had our needs. Part of me understood Carla's stance completely, both of us could be jealous and possessive. Not to mention she had just a couple months earlier walked in on me fucking her mother. I had let the issue die down, while I tried to find another solution to our ongoing issue. This was when Carla caught me by surprise, one day seemingly out of nowhere she brought the subject back up. Curious I indulged her; at this point we had been three weeks without sex just due to my work schedule. She inquired did I have anyone in mind I wanted and I had to admit I didn't. Just out of curiosity I asked her the same question, she hesitated slightly before answering.
"Honestly babe I can't get the sight of you and my mother out of my mind. As bad as I want you, and crave to be with you. Even when we are together something seems off. I don't want to make this about me getting even but maybe that's just what I need." The words truthfully weren't unexpected though still carried the same weight to hear, I sighed and went to speak just to find myself cutoff.
"Then after you asked about opening up our relationship, I got to thinking that maybe I'm just not enough for you. But then I began to realize, maybe you aren't enough for me. I mean I can't stand to see you with other women and I wouldn't ask you to see me with other men. But maybe that's the only way we can make this feel whole again."
This part caught me completely off guard, the fact that I wasn't enough to satisfy her had never really crossed my mind before. Then it started to all slip into place for me, the renewed spice in our relationship, her efforts at being understanding. Her level of caring that had increased seemingly. Calming myself slightly on the inside and putting on my best poker face I casually asked.
"So, who does satisfy you?" She paused and placed her hand on mine.
"Well me and Vincent have been getting to know one another recently, honestly he reminds me so much of you. What we had and what I want us to get back too."
I nodded keeping my poker face straight, Vincent was currently separated from his wife and my neighbor. He was a good guy through and through and at the moment an emotional wreck. I could easily see how the two could have connected as Vincent had walked in on his wife Della getting gangbanged. It had been a horrible situation; I had never honestly seen a guy so broken.
"So how far have you two gone?" I asked casually as I got up to grab a whiskey glass for my night cap.
"Well that's just it, the poor guys kind of in no mental place for intimacy at least not physically." I looked over and shrugged slightly my broad shoulders slumping a bit after. Honestly the thought of Vincent fucking my wife didn't bother me, I mean the guy deserved something and if it made Carla happy that was double points for me. Not to mention it freed me up to pursue possible other interest such as one girl who seemed to mimic my gym schedule.
My mind drifted to her as I temporarily zoned out. She couldn't have been taller than five foot two, her brown hair cut into a short pixie cut went perfect with her bright blue eyes. Her slightly upturned button nose and one dimple on the right side, just below those sat a luscious pair of full lips that just made her picture of sultry, cuteness. Her body however would have been done a disservice to be described as cute her toned legs and thighs still had a thickness to them that wasn't over muscled. Her bubble butt was the same as her legs but just jiggly enough to bounce when she was on the treadmill. Her toned core led to perky what had to be D cup breast. I had to shake my head to clear the image yet it wouldn't go away.
Me and Carla had been together long enough for her to know when I wasn't paying attention and I found and ice cube down my back to the distraction.
"What are you thinking how hot it would be to watch me and Vincent together?" She said playfully as I quickly retrieved a bottle of Johnny Walker Blue label.
"No, I just couldn't help but think what would Della think. I mean aren't they trying to patch things up?" Carla nodded at this.
"Yes, however his lack of ability to perform is making that hard. As apparently his work schedule led to that situation to begin with." I popped the cork from the whiskey while muttering,
"Women in this neighborhood I swear." My wife was taken aback by this but I just shrugged.
"Well you were trying to fuck your masseur and Della gangbanged the lawn crew. Honestly guys can't win for losing around here."
I should have known better than to say that and immediately regretted it as my wife bellowed. "YOU FUCKED MY MOTHER IN THE BED WE SLEEP IN EVERY NIGHT, IN FRONT OF ME TWICE TECHNICALLY!!"
I went to argue that she did even if it was half-heartedly blow the masseur but thought better of it. Holding my hands up in surrender.
"Actually, no I need to get this off my chest." She continued as I sipped the whiskey. "I get she came on to you, I get that you were mad at me and maybe in that moment completely done with me. I get I was in the wrong for a big part of that situation, BUT MY FUCKING MOTHER?! Who does something like that?" I calmly took another sip; this argument had happened before and I figured it would again.
"Listen you're right. I'm not just saying that to end the argument, I went way to far. I never planned on that happening and I'm an adult and should have stopped it. I appreciate you attempting to keep this going, I really do. I appreciate your dedication to this marriage; however, I understand if this is something you can't get by. I understand if you want to go fuck Vincent, I mean the man's been through just as much shit as you and you both need the reprieve. I understand if you need more than me to satisfy you or if we just need to go our separate ways. But what I am going to need, other than another drink. Is us to not fake this anymore, you can't be the perfect wife I got it. I'm far from the perfect husband I know. But we have to find something to make it work. So, we can sit here and yell all night or figure it out."
My wife plopped next to me at our counter. "You aren't going to leave me if I do this?" She asked, I could hear worry in her voice. I had to be honest even though I knew it wasn't fair.
"Truthfully, who knows. I mean we already damaged the dynamic of this relationship." My sentence trailed off as a sudden piece of brilliance hit me, I wasn't sure if I wanted to risk it. But fuck it all the cards were on the table anyways.
I turned to my wife and looked her in the eyes. "Babe hear me out here ok, Vincent wants Della back right? Me and you want to fix what we have as well, so why not combine the causes? Vince has performance issues but I get a suspicion he's comfortable around you, maybe even comfortable enough to perform."
