There were four of us that loved to get together to play poker and drink beer every Friday night. We had done this for years, without interruption. We were golfing buddies, and all were happily married goofballs.
One night, as we were, deep into our ninth or tenth hand of poker, with the beer and the whiskey flowing, one of the group members asked the question that all of us had probably thought to ask at one point or another, but none of us had ever dared to ask.
“So, what’s the kinkiest sex you’ve had?”
Everyone had a story, except me. There was no way I could out do any of the stories some of the guys told. I apologized and told the group, that I had to be the one weird one since I did not have any wild or unusual sex stories to tell.
“But,” I declared, “I bet I could figure something out that might make up for it.” I was let off the hook temporarily, but I knew I would be held accountable. So, I went to work on a plan. I figured if I was going to do something, I might as well make it stupendous.
I had an old friend who used to be a bit on the wild side, a retired stripper, if there is such a thing. I decided to consult her for a story that might seem plausible. Roxy was a head turner. She was also married five times and a heartbreaker. I had always admired Roxy from afar, but didn’t want to ever broach anything as personal as her love life.
I invited Roxy to lunch one day and told her about our little poker playing club. I told her about our conversation and the stories the guys seemed to relish telling. Roxy reached across the table and placed her hand on mine. She had always been that type of friend, one I could confide in and one that could read a mind.
“Say no more,” Roxy said. “I’d love to meet these guys."
“You don’t have to,” I replied. “I was only hoping you could give me some ideas or a story to tell.”
“Oh dear,” Roxy replied, proffering a wink, “I can give you more than a story to tell.”
I knew Roxy was a bit on the wild side, but how much on the wild side, I had no idea, until she asked to accompany me to the next Friday night gathering.
I picked Roxy up at her apartment. She was dressed in a killer low cut, boob displaying, one-piece cocktail dress, which showed off her stripper-like body very well and rode uncomfortably high on her sexy thighs. Roxy was forty something, but one would never know it by how well she took care of herself.
“Is this a bit too much?” Roxy asked as she settled into the passenger seat of my SUV.
“Not at all,” I said. I jokingly teased that I should get a hotel room and forgo the poker party.
Roxy laughed.
“Save that thought for another day,” she replied.
Roxy followed me into James’ house. Almost immediately, everyone stood up to welcome Roxy to the party. Everyone was polite and super welcoming as I introduced Roxy to the group.
I explained to everyone that Roxy was an old friend and was a close confidant and a super good poker player.
“Except for strip poker,” Roxy quickly added, taking up a seat at the dining room table where we each had a seat. “I always end up losing at strip poker.”
No one said much of anything as the first few hands were dealt. We had a ceiling amount that capped bets at $25 per hand since none of us were super rich. The first person to accumulate $100 had to host the next weekend, so there was a small impetus to win, but not win too big.
Roxy turned out to be the big winner of the first three or four hands, demonstrating her prowess at playing some serious poker. Then, the beer and the whiskey came out. Things got more serious after that. Roxy held her own, but quickly decided to sit out a few hands.
“I don’t want to blow all my money at once,” she proffered with a wink.
“Don’t worry,” I told Roxy, “James over here will let blow something else.”
I thought for sure James, the older of the five of us, was going to have a heart attack, he turned so red.
Roxy didn’t miss a beat.
“If I blow good old James, I blow everyone.”
Sam, the one guy who was a church deacon, just about fell all over himself, getting out of his chair and making his way around the table to where Roxy sat stoic and smiling. He looked down at Roxy and declared, “I’m ready.”
