Chapter 1 –
Damn, even after almost 10 years of marriage we were attracted to each other. We never knew what would set it off, a quick kiss, a shoulder rub or gently brushing your fingers across the back of the neck would sometimes lead to some epic sex, and I for one didn’t want to miss out on a chance for a quickie. Even though I had great expectations for later on, I had no idea what the plans truly were. Bar hopping, and I didn’t have to worry about driving, that’s about all I knew. I hadn’t done that since college.
Whenever we were at my In-Law’s house, Kara’s parents would always joke that I was as sober as a judge. It wasn’t that I didn’t drink (that’s definitely not the case) it’s just that I don’t drink and drive, and they live 90 minutes away. So if I have a drink while we’re over there I always hold that in mind. Apparently Kara and Sarah had wanted to do something like this for a while, but with baby Sam being born last year…
“Come on Baby.” Kara yelled to me.
I don’t know why I was sulking. My wife was being wonderful, had gotten us a babysitter for our newborn and we were going out to celebrate my new job promotion. Everyone seemed in agreement that I needed to blow off some steam. Everybody but me, I just wanted a quiet night alone to seduce my gorgeous wife. Kara was a natural blond, and after a having a baby at 35 she still took my breath away. Everything about her was sexy and playful.
“I’m coming.” I yelled back to her doing one last spot check in the bathroom mirror. No missed areas from shaving, shirt buttoned up right, brown hair combed. Just a splash of cologne and I was almost ready. That’s when I noticed Kara in the mirror behind me with a smirk on her face.
I turned around to kiss her, cupping the back of her head in my hands and breathing in the smells of her hair. I could feel her breath catch and suddenly, pushing me back.
“Don’t start some shit just yet, we haven’t even gone out.”
“Maybe I want to start some shit. We have the house to ourselves.” I reminded her pulling her close.
“No, we promised my sister that we’d go out to the bar with them.” She said referring to her younger sister Sarah and her new(er) boyfriend Steve.
“Great, so we get a babysitter so we can babysit your little sister.” I told her still sulking.
“That’s not fair.” She said laughing, “She’s 28 this year, and you had no problem pouring her a few shots for her 21 st birthday party. She just wants to hang out with us.”
“Like she did when she we first started dating.” I said kissing her softly again. Damn, her green eyes were sparkling. I know that usually means an interesting evening is planned. My Kara loves to laugh and loves have a good time. I think I married her more so I could come out of my shell sometimes.
“She was 18 back then, she just had a crush on you.” She told me.
I knew about it, but when your years older, and it’s your girlfriend’s baby sister who’s just out of braces and a training bra, no way. I was always nice, but distant with Sarah.
“Yeah, I guess you’re right. I just hate the dumb shit she started dating. I swear, if he was a TV character he’d either be the Straw Man or Beavis.”
“Why's that, because he's clueless, or he's a dumb ass?”
“Probably a little bit of both, but who knows. I just don't think Steve is ever going to amount to much, and your sister deserves better than that.” I told Kara.
“Rawr, now you're getting all protective. A second ago you were talking about babysitting her, and now you're talking about perspective boyfriend qualities?”
“Forget about it. Let's get this night going.” I told her.
“First things first, drink this.” She said holding up one of my large glass beer mugs I kept in the freezer. It had some sort
