Wednesday morning, 30th May 2018
My conversation with Jill had lasted so long that I didn’t have time for breakfast and had to make do with some brought in pastries and coffee when we got to our offices. But a missed breakfast was a price worth paying to talk to Jill and to hear her words of reassurance.
Being driven across town I’d tried to concentrate on what the team was telling me, but my mind was fighting an internal war. Mostly reassured by Jill’s words about always coming home, and how she’d kept this same promise to me during her long affair with Chris. But a smaller, nagging part of my brain reminding me that although she had indeed kept her promise, it had been a close-run thing. And that even if it was just for a few minutes, when she’d been at Chris’s that last weekend she had agreed to leave me and move with him to California, before coming to her senses and changing her mind.
While this internal war stopped me concentrating while we were driving, when we reached the office my brain had the activity of the day to help it block out thoughts of Jill’s promise and what was probably going on right now back in Miami. Especially as the client meeting was timed for three p.m. and we had plenty of work to do before then.
The more I dug into what the local team had done, the more I felt depressed and angry. They’d made so many elementary mistakes in the analysis and modeling they’d done that it was no wonder the client was so angry with us. I knew this wasn’t going to be a quick fix and I forced the team to build a methodical, logical and well-thought plan to fix what they should have done first time around.
As they built the plan, I saw what I’d hoped would be a two or three-week timeline extend out and out until it occupied pretty much all of June, July, and August. My only comfort coming from the fact these three clowns in front of me most certainly wouldn’t be getting a bonus in 2018 and that depending on how they did over the next few months some or all of them might be looking for new jobs once we’d fixed the problem.
The meeting with the client went well and they accepted the plan we shared for fixing the problem, but understandably they stated very clearly that their board wouldn’t make a decision on compensation or litigation until we delivered on the fix. The inference was clear. ‘Perform well over the next few months and my company might just escape with only minor financial and reputational damage. Don’t perform and well, you can imagine …’
The meeting broke up just after five, with my opposite number in the client company shaking my hand and telling me that he’d take our plan to his board and would call me back as soon as he could with an answer. I knew that, realistically, this was the best outcome we could have hoped for, so as I watched the elevator doors close behind them I felt a wave of relief wash over me. There was still a slim chance we could escape this monumental balls-up with the shirts still on our backs.
I told the guys I’d call them tomorrow, making it clear I had no desire to have dinner with them. I think they felt the same, knowing full well how pissed I was at them both as individuals and as a group. They had even less desire to dine with a pissed boss than I had to make small talk with three people who’d behaved so badly and caused me so much trouble.
There was still one flight back home to Miami, but it left at nine and would only land back in Miami at five in the morning. I was torn between staying the night and heading back tomorrow at a more civilized time and rushing back to reclaim Jill and keep a watchful eye on the new love interest in her life.
Not surprisingly, my need to be back close to Jill won out over the tiredness that was now overtaking my mind and body, now that the adrenaline rush had worn off. Having made up my mind I decided to ring Jill, a decision which had the benefit of another kick of adrenaline as I wondered what sights or sounds I might be about to witness.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
“Hi honey,” my smiling and bikini-clad wife greeted me, Jill’s revealing royal-blue bikini being the naughtiest thing greeting me on a call that had been triple-X rated the last few times I’d dialed.
I could see our neighbors’ pool in the background and could hear the sound of frolicking and laughing in the background.
“How was your day, darling,” my happy-looking wife asked.
“Not bad, not bad at all,” I smiled back in return.
There was a moment of awkward silence between us. Despite all that had happened these last months, I guess the conventional part of each of us still ran deep. Both of us feeling a little strange that my call had found Jill frolicking with our three black neighbors in a very skimpy bikini.
I was the first to break the silence and relax the mood. “Well, if my day wasn’t bad, it looks like someone had an even better day. That they made the most of their unexpected sick leave day.”
Jill grinned. “Well, I’m sure my loving husband wouldn’t want his poor little wife getting all sad and lonely while he’s away. At least, not while there are three handsome and hunky young black guys just next door, willing to be perfect gentlemen and keep her company.”
Ahh! Jill had always known just what to say to wind me up. To wind me around her little finger.
As Jill and I chatted, with her being a little modest and evasive about her day’s activities, for some reason it came into my head that I’d not let on the time of my flight. So that I could surprise her. A wicked corner of my brain realized that if I told her I’d see her tomorrow, she’d naturally assume that I’d take a morning flight and see her at the end of the day when she finished work. Rather than just before six a.m. when my cab would bring me home from the airport. If I told her this, that I’d see her tomorrow, I wasn’t lying, which I never wanted to do with Jill. I was just being ‘economical with the truth’ and allowing her to draw her own conclusions about when on Thursday she’d see me.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jill and I couldn’t talk for long as I had to book my flight, pack, checkout and then dash for the airport. Each of these seemed to take forever, and the flight itself seemed to last an eternity. How could a five-hour flight seem to last so long? At least I managed to get some sleep on the plane, which I greatly needed as I’d only had a few hours' sleep last night and the stress of the project recovery and Jill’s games back home had taken their toll.
Finally, I was clear of the arrivals area and jumping into the cab. Glad that at this time of the day the journey from MIA to our home in Pinecrest would only take twenty minutes. Feeling a bit of a fraud, I asked the cab driver to try and keep the noise down to avoid waking the neighbors, explaining that we had some bad-tempered neighbors. Failing to share my real reason for wanting him to be as quiet as he could at five-thirty in the morning.
Since Chris had left for California, Jill’s days were less busy and she’d developed the habit of sleeping-in until seven, allowing herself an hour to leave the house so she could reach work by eight-forty-five, which was okay with her reduced workload.
So, as I slowly turned the lock and silently eased the door inwards in its frame, I knew it was pretty certain I’d still find Jill asleep. But as I eased the door back into the frame with equal care as I’d opened it, it suddenly occurred to me that yes she’d be asleep, but where? There was no guarantee that she’d be upstairs asleep in our home.
She might just as well be sleeping next door in the bed of one of our neighbors. A latter-day Goldilocks – trying to find the bed with the perfect temperature for her newly hungry married pussy. Or should that have been the perfect cock size? (Although that smacked more of Cinderella, Prince Charming and a slightly different type of size test than in the original.)
The thought that she might not be there, that she might be next door with one or more of her lovers, both excited and worried me. Just as it had done on those occasions when Jill had started sleeping over with her boyfriend Chris.
Chris? It suddenly came back to me that I’d still not had the chance to tell Jill about meeting Chris in the hotel in LA and about his admission that I’d won out over him and how envious he felt of me. Funny, at the time it had felt such a big deal. But here I was just two days later and it didn’t seem a big deal anymore. The world seemed to have moved on. Jill seemed to have moved on. And the source of the mixed excitement and threat to our marriage was no longer Chris and his and Jill’s emotional attachment. It was Jill and the way she responded to Josh and Freddy’s dark bodies, big cocks and the amazing way they fucked her. And to be totally fair, not just the way Jill responded to this, but the way I got off on watching Jill’s response.
Ever since I was young, I’ve always been a highly impatient person, and this morning was no exception. Having shut the door as quietly as I could and placed my travel bags by the door, I tip-toed towards the stairs. Fifty-fifty as to whether finding Jill upstairs or finding her absent would provide me with the biggest buzz.
The house was still dark and my eyes hadn’t adjusted to the lack of light, so I was staring down at the first step as I slowly headed up. Jill’s always had a habit of leaving stuff on the stairs which bugs the safety-trained engineer in me, and so I was concentrating hard on the bottom of the stairs so as not to trip on something Jill had left and wake the whole house.
I was concentrating so hard that the first I knew about not being alone was when I jumped a foot in the air.
“Hey, man. We thought you weren’t back until much later.”
My eyes were slowly adjusting to the light and as the dark figure slowly descended the stairs.
The first thing I noticed was dreadlocks swinging in time with his steps. Freddy. Which just left one question. Was his buddy Josh upstairs with Jill as well, or had this been a one-man show? No doubt a toss of the dice or some such to see who would be lucky enough to spend the night with my lovely wife. My money was firmly on a double-act. After all, they’d shown no hesitation in always sharing Jill up until now. Why should tonight have been any different?
The second thing I noticed as the silhouetted figure continued to descend the stairs was the side-to-side swing of something dangling between his dark legs. As he got closer to me, I realized the obvious. Shit, our neighbor Freddy was wondering around butt naked in my house in the middle of the night, just like he owned the place.
He walked straight past me as if I wasn’t there, my eyes glued to his shiny and very naked ass as he headed into the kitchen.
“Hey, Dave. You want a coffee or something, man? Or maybe from the look on your face you’d like something a little stronger,” he chuckled.
There was nothing malicious in his tone. As far as he knew, I’d given Jill permission to sleep with him and his buddy, and he was just seeing the funny side of a husband walking into his home in the early hours to find a butt naked black man having a morning piss and cup of coffee.
Like a moth to a candle, I followed our naked black neighbor into my own kitchen. He’d turned the light on and now in the bright neon light, I could see just how muscular and well-defined his body was. To his credit and to my relief, Freddy seemed more pre-occupied on getting his first coffee of the day than on commenting on the barely disguised way I was staring at his naked body. Who knows, maybe he’d had previous experience of it with other husbands whose wives he’d slept with.
Until now I’d only seen Freddy’s body on the small five-inch screen of my phone, where it had looked very virile and masculine, and where his cock had looked plenty impressive. But up close and in the flesh, and under the high-intensity neon glare, everything seemed more exaggerated and bigger. His skin seemed darker and to have an even more pronounced sheen than I’d seen on the phone. His chest seemed broader, his pecs stood out more and his whole frame seemed far bigger than mine.
And his limp, dangling cock seemed both longer and thicker than when I’d seen it before through the marvels of FaceTime. I felt myself swallow nervously as I realized that even limp his dark cock was both a little thicker and a little longer than my own cock is when it’s hard. Even limp and off-duty’ he must have been nearly seven inches long.
I was lost for words. What do you say to a naked man making a coffee for himself in your kitchen when you know he’s just popped down before popping back upstairs to sleep with and most probably then have morning sex with your wife?
Thankfully my dilemma about what to say was solved as Freddy had made his coffee and started heading back upstairs. Winking at me as he passed me. “I know you like to watch, Dave, so I’ll leave the door open a little.”
Still tongue-tied, I didn’t say anything in response, unable to stop myself watching his muscular backside as it receded from my view and climbed the stairs, its friend his dangling dick visible and then not visible as his legs climbed.
“And. Dave, as you’ve been such a good sport about all of this, I’ll not tell Jill or Josh that you’re home. That way you can know that you’re watching the real Jill. Raw and uncut, so to speak. The real Jill when her beloved white husband isn’t around,” he chuckled.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Still more than a little shell-shocked at finding a butt-naked black guy in my house, it took me a few moments to gather myself. Part of me wanted to stay downstairs, make a coffee, wait for Jill and retain some semblance of self-respect. But who was I kidding? Freddy had done a great job in baiting the line and barely seconds later I was climbing the stairs, following the path his black ass had climbed just seconds earlier.
As promised, our bedroom door was just slightly ajar. Padding along as quietly as I could, I brought my eyes to the crack in the door. I saw the scene inside my sharp intake of breath nearly gave the game away. My chest instantly tightened as I took in the sight.
