*



Nicole and I shared a quick kiss goodbye, as the girls and I jammed into our SUV and headed off to the arcade. That's not a real good name for it, because it's more than just an arcade. It's a holy place of entertainment and it has the power to suck money right out of your wallet! Inside this shrine is a restaurant, pool tables and a huge area devoted to video games and related stuff. We called it the arcade, but it was more like a huge entertainment mecca.



The girls were bubbling with excitement, chatting and laughing back and forth, as I navigated the parking lot. I got lucky and found a spot pretty close to the front, but what made it particularly valuable is that it was under a tree. So it had that most valuable, but elusive quality that made it a prime parking spot....shade.



We blew through the front and made our way to the games section. I got the kids squared away for money and they were off. I threaded my way through running 5 and 6 year olds and grabbed a stool at the little drink counter. My phone was my lifeline at this point, because I wasn't interested in playing 'kill the zombies' for the thousandth time; so I just surfed the net on my phone, while the girls played video games.



The smoking-hot waitress gave me a wink and a smile as she dropped of my soda. It was my 'usual' drink order. We knew each other fairly well, because our family was here a lot. She flirted with me and I flirted back, but we both knew it wasn't going to amount to anything.



I took a short break from surfing the net and scanned the video game area. I found the girls at the 'kill the dinosaur game and they were happily occupied. The girls were at an age where they preferred to play the games by themselves. If they needed anything, I always sat in the same spot, so they knew where to find me. My spot was also right in front of the exit, so they couldn't leave without walking past me. What can I say, I'm a parent.



I wandered around a few times each hour just to keep an eye on them, but everything was fine. They were having a blast and there were no boys in sight. Well, that's not true. There were no boys in sight that looked interested in talking to my girls and that's what was important. I occasionally stuck a token into a Pac Man or Galaga game, because video games were truly awesome when these games were popular.



We'd been there about three hours and just ordered lunch, when my phone buzzed. It was a text from Nicole and she wanted me to call her. I excused myself from the table and walked over to a quiet corner, just outside the restaurant.



I dialed Nicole and she picked up immediately. "Hey baby, thanks for calling me so quickly. How are the girls?"



"No problem. The girls are fine. They've blown through the money I gave them for games and now we're having lunch. They also didn't talk to any boys, so it's been great!"



Nicole laughed. "You really need to relax about boys honey."



"Yea maybe when they're 35, I'll relax a little. Anyway, what did you need?"



Nicole paused and spoke a little more slowly than normal. She typically did this when she was nervous, so I guessed that it had something to do with Collin.



"Well, Collin called and he wanted to know if I was available tomorrow."



"Just you? Not the three of us together?"



Sweat started to break out on my forehead and I wiped it away quickly. I scanned the restaurant and checked on the girls. The appetizers had been delivered and they were munching away on them. I stared back at the wall and listened to Nicole's response.



"No Nick. He wanted to spend the day with me, just the two of us. He said he hasn't had a chance to date me without a chaperone." Nicole paused. "The chaperone is you baby."



We both laughed at the ridiculousness of that statement.



"Right, whatever. I apparently suck at being a chaperone, because I haven't prevented you from doing anything so far. Ok. This is a bit sudden, but what do you think? Do you want to spend the day with him? I know we talked about you being alone with him, but this seems quick to me."



"Well, I won't go out with him, if you feel uncomfortable. There's no rush, but I would like to see him again. We don't have anything planned for tomorrow, so I wouldn't be missing anything. I could even have him bring me back in time for dinner, if that makes you feel better."



Great. Now I really felt like a schmuck. My wife was bargaining with me for more time with her boyfriend. Almost like a teenager or something. I sighed and reminded myself that I knew this would happen. It's not like I could be with them every time they were together. Besides, this wasn't impacting any activities with the girls and she was right, we hadn't planned anything for tomorrow. Nicole was also taking them shopping this afternoon and a movie tonight. They were not being neglected and honestly it would give me more time with the girls tomorrow, which was always pretty cool.



"Nicole, I'm sorry. Yes, go out with Collin. I'm fine with it."



"Are you sure?" There was happiness, mixed with excitement, in her voice.



"Yes, I'm totally sure. You're dating Collin now and the key word being 'dating'. Will you do me one favor though?"



"Sure. Anything, you name it."



"Will you text me throughout the day, maybe a phone call as well? I know you'll be safe, but it will help me get through the day without worrying. Please?"



"Absolutely Nick. Maybe I'll send you some steamy texts."



She laughed as though it was a joke, but my response was serious. "Don't laugh baby, I'd love that!"



"Really? Well, I'll talk to Collin and see what we can arrange for my little cuckold!"



My heart flipped over and I held my breat, it was the first time she'd called me that name. I felt my cock stir and grow. Quickly making a fist, I dug my fingernails into my skin. This was not the time and definitely not the place. I needed to get better control over myself.



"Nick, are you still there?"



"Yes baby, your little cuckold is still here." I tried for sarcasm in my voice, but I'm pretty sure I failed spectacularly. Nicole didn't pickup on the name again though and continued as if nothing had happened.



"Great. I'll let Collin know and I'll see you in a bit. How much longer do you think you and the girls will be at the arcade?"



"Mmmm, I'm guessing another 45 minutes to an hour, at most."



"Ok, I'll see you then. Have fun. I love you Nick."



"I love you to honey."



It was a good guess on my part, because 48 minutes later we were outside and heading home. The girls had managed to get a few souvenirs (like we really needed more of those) and they were comparing scores on various games. The ride home was uneventful and I was able to switch quickly and easily with Nicole.



The girls were off again with Nicole in no time. They were excited to be doing that mysterious and confusing activity called shopping. I had no idea how they made it last so long but I was positive I wouldn't see them until dinner. A quick wave goodbye and they disappeared. I walked, no stumbled is more appropriate, into our bedroom and crashed. I barely remembered to slip off my shoes and was asleep in no time at all.



There's nothing like a mid-day nap on a weekend. It's the perfect remedy for a late night or an early morning. In this case, I was suffering from both, so the nap was awesome! A few hours of sleep and I felt like a new man. The girls were still out shopping or doing girl-stuff. They were in good hands with Nicole and I knew they were having a great time.



I had some time to myself, so I logged into the website focused on cuckold marriages. I liked this one the best, because it seemed to deal with the lifestyle in the most serious fashion. I could get porn anywhere, but what I really needed was information and perspective. I scrolled through the forum and various postings. I couldn't believe how much of this information directly related to my situation. I considered going into the chat room, but I wasn't ready for that yet.



I found the section of the website devoted to cream pies and stopped cold. The more I read, the more I found this part of the lifestyle captivating. I remembered this morning in the shower with Nicole and it was amazing for me, well for both of us really. She tasted great and I loved making her cum with my tongue. It was a sure-fire winner for me and she loved it as well. I had to acknowledge that her pussy had probably been full of Collin's cum, but honestly it didn't bother me. The taste wasn't drastically different and Nicole seemed to be even more turned on by it. I should have been shocked, appalled and disgusted, but I wasn't. It was fun. I enjoyed it and Nicole enjoyed it and I could hardly wait to do it again.



I remembered Collin saying something about chastity devices and I searched the site for more information. I wasn't sure I was prepared for that either, but I thought I'd better get familiar with all aspects of this lifestyle.



<em>Holy Shit</em>! These were devices that fastened around the scrotum and shaft of the penis. They were deliberately downward, so it was impossible for a guy to have an erection. Well, almost impossible, if a guy was willing to undergo some serious pain, he might get hard. Even if a guy did manage to get hard, there was no way he could have penetrative sex. It just wasn't going to happen.



This was an aspect of the lifestyle that dealt directly with control. The chastity belt allowed the wife, or her boyfriend, control of the husband's penis and ultimately control of his emotions. I was a little surprised to learn that husbands enjoyed wearing a chastity belt. I definitely wasn't ready to board that train. I loved having an orgasm and feeling myself spurt into Nicole. Well that hadn't happened lately, but whether it was Nicole or the toilet, I still wasn't ready to give up control of my cock.



There were other sections related to Chastity; involving the husbands wearing women's panties, blindfolds and being restrained in a variety of ways. It was all pretty hot, but I filed them under the "Not Ready" column and shut down the computer.



The clock on the wall let me know that the girls should be home soon, so I started dinner. I fired up the grill and started making my classic Paella. It was a huge hit with the family and fairly easy to make. I liked making it over the grill, because it was as close to the traditional way of making it, as I could get in my backyard.



The girls arrived, just as I had everything setup on the grill. I just had to wait and check it every 10 minutes and viola', dinner would be ready! I got hugs from each of my girls, because they were starving and I was making dinner. Shopping bags littered the living room floor and I guessed that it had been a successful hunt. Excuse me, I meant shopping trip, although 'hunting' wasn't a bad comparison.



The girls finally put away the stuff that they bought and we sat down to dinner. I got lots of compliments, which wasn't always the case. The thing about families is they can be brutally honest and if my cooking sucked, they'd let me know it. Tonight however, the food met their expectations, so I got a lot of compliments and the honor of doing the dishes. Yea!



Nicole and I finally had a few minutes to ourselves after I was done with the dishes. I wandered into our bathroom and saw Nicole trying on some of the items she bought. I watched for a while. It seemed that everything she tried on was just a little sexier, showed just a little more skin and was just a little more revealing than normal. I approved, and wow, she looked sexy. She would turn her body this way and that for each outfit, almost like she was posing.



Some of the items she tried on were probably not something the girls should see her wear; but that was ok, I knew she'd be careful around the girls.



She finally saw me and realized I had been watching her. She turned towards me blushing furiously.



"How long have you been standing there?"



"Oh, I've been here for about four outfits. I'm not sure how long that is in minutes, but about four to five outfits. By the way, you look amazing in each one and I liked everything I saw you try on."



She came over to me and kissed me softly. I grabbed her before she could get away and held her to me. Our eyes met and we stood together for a little while, just looking into each other's eyes. Nicole finally reached up, tweaked my nose and broke our connection. She kissed my cheek one last time before heading back into the closet to put everything away.



"So, any idea what Collin has planned for the two of you tomorrow?"



I really tried to sound nonchalant, but the idea of her dating Collin made me anxious. It was exciting as well, but right now I was anxious, very anxious. I think I succeeded in sounding calm, because Nicole answered and without any sarcasm. It was surreal. It was almost as though her going out on a date with another man was completely normal. How had things changed so quickly?



"Yep. He's meeting with a real estate agent and she's going to be showing him some properties. He also mentioned that we may have lunch with his attorney. They're going to be discussing him setting up a new business in town."



"Wow. It sounds like a busy day. Not much of a date, if you ask me."



I honestly wasn't trying to sound bitter or jealous. Nicole popped her head outside the closet and gave me a steady look. She didn't answer right away; she simply maintained eye contact with me.



I finally broke contact and looked down at my shoes. Her voice was calm and even when she finally responded. "Nick, I didn't ask you. You said you were ok with me going out with Collin tomorrow. What we choose to do on our dates; is up to us. Right?"



I nodded at her and held up my hands, palms out.



"Yes it is. I'm sorry, you're right. I'm just getting used to the idea, I guess."



She nodded at me and disappeared again into the closet. She continued our conversation while getting dressed.



"Don't worry Nick. I'll be fine and I'll do my best to keep in touch with you throughout the day."



"Thank you baby. I really don't mind you dating Collin or even going out with him alone. I realize I have to get used to you two being alone together. It's just that I feel excluded and that makes me worry."



Nicole came back into the bathroom, fully dressed for the movies. She looked at me with a huge question mark on her face.



"Why would you say that Nick?"



"C'mon Nicole." I rolled my eyes at her. "We've had this discussion already. Collin is rich, good-looking and successful. He treats you with respect and he's funny, which I know you like in a man. Oh, and one more thing, he's very well endowed and you obviously love fucking him. Am I missing anything here?"



My voice had risen to almost a shout, not good, and I concentrated on calming down and take slow, deep breaths. Nicole was also struggling with her temper, as I ranted and I saw it her temper building and I didn't care. I was worried and I wasn't going to just watch her fall in love with another guy, at least not without a fight. I may be enjoying this whole 'cuckold' thing more than I anticipated, but there is nothing exciting about losing your wife.



Nicole took a breath and made a visible effort to calm down, before she started talking. She walked forward and placed her arms around my neck and kissed me.



"I love you Nick. That's where I'm beginning this conversation and that's where I will be ending it. Yes, you did leave something out. Collin is not my husband, he is not the father of my two girls and he has not built a life with me. That's something that only you have done Nick."



I nodded and she continued.



"Both of us come from broken homes and our families didn't have a lot of money. You and I married young and we were so poor we used pizza boxes as end tables. Thank god for Duct Tape. Ever since we got married you and I worked our asses off to build this family. We make a very good living together and we've managed to raise two great kids. We've still got some work to do there, but their heads and their hearts are in the right spot. None of that happened with Collin."



I leaned forward to kiss her and she stopped me with a hand on my lips.



"I'm not done. I'm married to a man who respects me enough to listen when I say I want to try something new. He loves me enough to allow me to see another man. Finally, he loves me enough to fight for me and not let me walk off into the sunset with another guy. I know that's what you're doing now Nick and I love you for it. Collin isn't doing that Nick, you are. I love you. Please have faith in me. Please have faith in us."



Tears had formed in her eyes as she was talking and it hurt me to see them. I hugged her tight and she hugged me right back. I was truly a lucky man. We finally pulled back from one another and she wiped her eyes.



"I'm sorry baby. I love you. Thank you for telling me that, I really needed to hear it."



Nicole nodded and smiled.



"You better remember it mister or I will seriously kick your ass!"



We both laughed and hugged again. Nicole shoo'ed me out of the bathroom so she could finish getting ready and I went and checked on the girls. Fifteen minutes later, we were off to see the movie.



Counting sheep, counting backwards, trying to remember each of your elementary school teachers names, you name it, I tried it that night. Unfortunately sleep still eluded me. The thought of Nicole and Collin spending the day together consumed my thoughts. My mind raced all night long, with images of them at lunch, visiting properties and Collin telling her she could move-in permanently with him. First, I was hot; then I was cold.



I finally gave up and slipped out of bed. Nicole was sleeping soundly, so I closed the door to our bedroom and sat outside on our patio. It was a nice morning and the sun was already starting to lighten the sky. Birds started singing to each other and I tilted my head back, closed my eyes and enjoyed the sounds of the morning. I didn't get much private time, with two girls and a wife in the house, so this morning was extra special.



<em>The beginning</em>, I thought, <em>start at the beginning</em>. Nicole wanted to try having a boyfriend and I agreed. Maybe that wasn't the brightest idea I've ever had, but Nicole was as happy as I'd ever seen her. We met Collin and he turned out to be a great guy. Yes, he was rich and yes, he was obviously handsome. Nicole enjoyed him immensely, but that didn't appear to have changed the way she felt about me. At least, it hadn't changed her feelings so far. Nicole was like a clear pool of water though, she didn't hide anything and I knew she meant what she said to me earlier. I also had to admit that Nicole's relationship with Collin had awakened urges and desires within me as well. I hadn't expected that at all and I wasn't sure how to deal with them at this point. Nicole and Collin both seemed accepting and open to including me, in whatever way I felt comfortable. How cool was that?



Now Collin and Nicole were going to spend the day together. As a couple. Alone. How the hell do I deal with that little piece of information? How would Collin introduce Nicole to his friends and business partners? What about her wedding rings? Would this lead to overnight stays? How about weekends and traveling together? I was nervous, anxious about Nicole being away from me for a day; I wasn't sure how I would handle an overnight stay or a weekend away.

<hr pg="2" />Yes, I was worried about where we were headed. I would have been insane, not to be worried. I had to be honest though; I was also turned on, very turned on. Various fantasies of what Collin would do with Nicole flashed through my head constantly and I loved it. These feelings of anxiety and lust, of fear and titillation, were discussed at length on the website I viewed earlier. These feelings were the attraction, the sexual drug of the cuckold husband and they were powerful. They were intoxicating and I was just now starting to realize how to deal with them.



The sun had finally made an appearance and I decided I needed some caffeine to start my day. I hoped the house would still be quiet, but the girls had already made their way into the kitchen. I joined them and got the coffee started.



"What are you guys thinking about for breakfast this morning?"



The girls looked at each other and smiled. "Waffles!!" They said it unison and laughed. It was their favorite breakfast and I enjoyed making it for them. Our waffle iron was an industrial strength model and it could make two waffles at the same time. It was also heavy and a pain in the tail to move around the kitchen; but it was for my girls, so I didn't mind too much. In no time at all, the waffle batter was made and the first waffles were in the waffle iron. The girls got the table set, just in time for the first waffle to be ready. I got both of the girls situated and made my own waffle. A few minutes later and the girls and I were enjoying hot, delicious (my own opinion) waffles and laughing about shopping with mom. A lull appeared in the conversation and I thought I'd let the girls know what the plan was for the day.



"Hey you two waffle-loving kids, how do you feel about spending the day with dad? Mom is going to spend the day helping a friend of ours. He's new in town and not very familiar with the city, so mom's going to show him around. He's looking for a new home, so she will probably spend most of the day in the car, taking him to various neighborhoods. You two ok, if she's gone for most of the day?"



My youngest shrugged her shoulders and stuffed another piece of waffle in her mouth. She was obviously fine with it. My oldest finished chewing and reached for more syrup. "Do we know this guy dad?"



"No honey, like I said he's new to San Antonio, so we've never had him over. Your mom and I met him recently and we've kind of adopted him. He's a really cool guy and we had dinner with him the other night. It's a long story, but he actually owns a restaurant here in town."



I wasn't technically lying to my child, but again, she wasn't old enough for this situation. This was something Nicole and I would keep from the children. While that may change in the future; we would cross that bridge when we came to it. In the meantime, there was a solid wall between our kids and this situation.



My oldest shrugged her shoulders. "It's cool dad. I was going to stay home anyway and we didn't have anything planned. Besides, we've done a lot the last two days. It'll be nice to just stay home and Chillax."



Ahhh. Another new word from the kids and I had absolutely no idea what it meant. It must be cool though and it was further confirmation that I definitely was getting old. My daughter caught my confused look and rolled her eyes at me. I swear they were going to start rolling and never stop!



"Dad, it's a combination of Chill and Relax. Duh. Chillax!"



"uuh. Right. No I got it. It's cool." Another eye roll, but at least she had carried her dishes to the sink and managed to put them in the dishwasher. All was forgiven, because that didn't happen very often. The dishes got cleaned up and put away.



The girls disappeared into their rooms or the game room and I wandered into the bedroom to see if Nicole was up. The bed was empty and the sheets and blankets were still rumpled, so she hadn't been up long. The shower was going, so that explained what she was doing. I made the bed, then snuck over to watch her in the shower.



Her leg was covered in shaving cream and she drawing the razor very carefully over her leg. I had been married long enough to know, that you never startle a woman while she's shaving her legs. Men have been tortured and killed for a lot less. I backed away and let her finish her shower. Her phone buzzed as I was leaving the bedroom, so I walked over and picked it up. It was a text from Collin.



<em>Moment of truth</em>, I thought to myself. <em>Do I read the text or put the phone down and let her have her privacy?</em> I put the phone down, left the text unread and walked out of the bedroom. I actually made it to couch, before turning right around and rushing back to her phone. Checking quickly to make sure she was still in the shower, I snatched the phone and scanned the text. So much for privacy.



<em>Good morning beautiful. Let me know when you're ready to come over. I can't wait to see you!</em>



That was the entire text. It was pretty damn tame and definitely not worth pissing off Nicole. I replaced the phone and went back to the couch. I was a little deflated. I had hoped for something hot, steamy and full of promise. I wasn't sure anymore if I was worried or horny, about this date. Obviously, I was both and I wasn't used to the mix of emotions. One thing was certain, I was going to drive myself nuts, sitting on the couch obsessing over this date.



My honey-do list was waiting, so I got started. There were several chores, inside and outside that I needed to get done. I was going to be busy. I was in the garage, when Nicole came in to let me know she was leaving. Soaked in sweat and covered in dirt, I stopped what I was doing and stared at her. She was beautiful and today she looked very sexy. She had on one of the outfits from yesterday and sexy, just didn't do it justice.



Nicole's face lit up as she saw my reaction. "Down boy! I'm not yours today." She giggled and gave me a slow turn. "Do you think Collin will like it?"



"Yes baby. I think Collin will love it. You look beautiful, sexy and still classy."



"Good. I'd kiss you honey, but you stink and you're dirty." She smiled at me and blew me a kiss. "I do appreciate you working on your honey-do list. I should be home for dinner, but I'll keep in touch today okay?"



I nodded. "Sounds good babe. Have fun." I noticed that she was still wearing her wedding rings.



Her ass was a thing of beauty and I openly admired it, as she walked out of the garage. The shorts were definitely short and showed a lot of leg, but they covered her ass completely. The high heels she was wearing helped emphasize her nicely muscled legs. The top she was wearing was some sort of two piece ensemble. She had on a tank top, that showed a lot of cleavage, but it was covered by a sheer blouse, that had a flowery print. It looked amazing and showed off her cleavage without being too obvious or slutty. That was my wife, she could look sexy, but classy and I'm sure Collin was going to be proud to have her on his arm today.



I'd like to say that the day flew by and that I was so busy, I barely missed Nicole. Unfortunately, the opposite is true. Yes, I worked like crazy and finished my entire honey-do list, but I could barely concentrate. I hammered and nailed. I sanded and painted. I mowed, raked and trimmed every green part of our yard. I even earned myself some weird looks from the girls, because I got the vacuum cleaner out and finally learned how the damned thing operated. I vacuumed every spec of carpet we had in the house. All day long I worked and never once did I stop thinking, fantasizing and worrying about Nicole.



My phone buzzed pretty regularly and to her credit, Nicole did keep me informed of what was going on. I got cheery texts about how great Collin was and how much fun they were having. She met his attorney. The real estate agent was kind of a bitch apparently, but she took them around to some very, very nice homes and neighborhoods. Nicole even sent me a photo of her and Collin at one of the homes. It was obviously taken by the real estate agent and they were standing together, side by side, arm in arm. One thing I noticed was that Nicole didn't have her wedding rings on in the picture.



I got texts all through the day, up until late afternoon and then nothing. My phone went silent, no texts, no calls, nada. My mood transitioned from working and impossibly horny, to working and worried. Emotional roller-coaster, now there was a perfect description of my emotional state, if ever there was one.



I fired up the grill and the girls and I had hamburgers. Spending time with the girls, just the three of us, was a definite perk of this lifestyle so far. We had a great time and I was able to take my mind off Nicole and Collin and simply enjoy my time with the girls. When dinner was over we rented a movie online and the girls and I crowded onto the couch to watch the movie. Each of us had our own bag of flavored popcorn, which we shared with each other, by digging our hands into each other's bags. Good times.



The movie had just gotten started when my phone went off again. The girls and I shared a look and I knew they were thinking I should just leave it alone. I thought about not answering it, but my burning desire to know what was going on with Nicole, won the battle. Careful not to spill anyone's popcorn, I stepped over and grabbed the phone.



It was a text, with a picture. What a picture. It was taken at the hotel in Collin's suite. Nicole was lying on the couch in just per panties and thigh high stockings. Collin must have bought her those as well, I thought, as my cock came to life. I walked quickly into our bedroom. Her tits were uncovered and beautiful and she had her arms above her head. She had posed for Collin and let him take a picture of her.



I hurried into our bathroom and set the phone on the back of the toilet, so I could stare at the picture. I started stroking myself, slowly at first, then faster. I hoped for another picture, but one didn't come through. I couldn't hold out any longer and came into our toilet. The picture stared back at me, as I leaned over the toilet and caught my breath. She was so beautiful and she must really trust Collin already to let him take a picture of her, especially that type of picture. I checked the text again and I saw that Collin had used her phone not his; but it was still a huge leap of faith for Nicole.



I saved the picture and cleaned up around the toilet. I washed my hands, brushed my teeth and went back out to let the girls know I was going to watch something else in our room. I wasn't comfortable sitting next to the girls and finishing the movie, after that text and my bathroom visit. Call me crazy, but I just didn't think it was appropriate.



"Dad, when is mom coming home?" My oldest was pretty sharp and she'd noticed that Nicole had been gone all day and missed dinner.



"She just texted me honey." It was true and I didn't want the girls to worry. "She is at dinner with our friend and they met some of his friends. They were going to have a few more drinks and then head home." That part was true, but I didn't know it at the time, so it felt like I was lying to the girls. Ugh.



"Ok. Thanks dad. Good night."



"Good night Honey. Don't worry about mom. She's ok."



My youngest was absorbed in the movie and missed the exchange. They both went back to watching the movie and I lay down on my bed. Now that I had my orgasm, my mood changed dramatically. My horniness had passed and I was worried now, a little confused and hurt. She let Collin take a picture of her naked, with her face showing in the picture! Nicole had also been gone longer than she promised and she took off her wedding rings. I wasn't sure why that surprised me, but it did and it also hurt. Our wedding rings were my only link with her, while she was out with Collin. Why did she stay out so late? She said she would be back by dinner and it was well past dinner now.



I tried not to dwell on what she was doing, but I couldn't help it. I knew she was getting fucked by Collin right that second. I knew she would love every minute of it and he would as well. <em>Relax</em>, I told myself. <em>You knew this would happen eventually. Remember what Nicole told you this morning</em>. I took a deep breath and found an action movie on cable. It had scantily clad women, cheesy lines, explosions and a decent chase scene. It was the perfect way to get my mind off of Nicole. I didn't receive any more texts or phone calls.



My movie ended at about the same time as the girls, so we cleaned up the popcorn and put the blankets away. Nicole walked in, just as I was about to suggest the girls head upstairs and get ready for bed.



"Mooooom!" The girls were getting good at shouting in unison.



Nicole was all smiles and her attitude was bright and cheery. "Hey Guys. How's it going? I missed you today." I took a closer look at Nicole and she wasn't drunk or tipsy. Thank god. She was just happy.



"Mom!" The girls rushed over to give her a hug. My youngest looked up after the hugs were over and filled her in. "We missed you too and you missed a good movie tonight. Dad also cooked the best burgers and we sat on the couch and shared popcorn."



Nicole laughed and smiled at the girls. "Sounds like you had fun. Don't you have the best dad?" She looked over at me and winked. "Thank you honey for taking such good care of our girls. I love you." I smiled back at Nicole and was about to say something, but one of my daughters beat me to the punch.



"Why were you out so late mom? You left fairly early this morning and you're just now getting back?" My oldest was clearly still fixated on Nicole's activities today. Nicole glanced over at me, but I wasn't sure what to say and I gave her a blank look.



"Well honey. Our friend had a lot of stuff to do today and I stuck around to help him. We spend most of the day with a real estate agent, trying to find him a place to live. We had a long, boring lunch with his attorney. We had just finished dinner and I was about to come home, when he ran into some of his friends and they asked us to stay and have a few drinks. Don't worry, you're mom only had diet soda. I'm sorry, I was out so late, but he did need the help. You're not mad are you honey?"



My oldest shook her head. "No mom. We just missed you." She leaned forward and gave Nicole another hug. It must be a mother/daughter thing.



The girls finally headed upstairs to bed. Nicole disappeared into our room and I spent a few minutes in the kitchen having a drink of water. I wanted to give Nicole time to relax and change, without me standing over her shoulder. I had a million questions, but I didn't want her to feel interrogated. The dishwasher was almost full, so after I finished my water, I put the glass in the dishwasher and got it started.



I walked into our bedroom and felt my heart start beating faster. I wanted details, I wanted answers, but I was worried I would upset Nicole, so I waited. This was her first official date and I didn't want it to become a bad memory.



The tap was running at her sink, when I stepped into our bathroom. Nicole emerged from our closet, wearing a long T-shirt and walked over to her sink. She smiled at me as she passed and started washing her hands and face. I couldn't help staring at her ass, as she leaned over to rinse the soap from her face. She was wearing thong panties, and yep, her ass still looked amazing.



She finally finished with her face and walked over to me. She kissed me softly and gave me a big hug. We hugged for a while, not saying anything, just reconnecting with each other. My erection must have caught her attention though, because she started to slowly rub her body against me.



"Somebody missed me today!" A slow sensual laugh rolled out of her. "Into the bedroom mister!"



She grabbed my wrist, led me over and pushed me onto the bed. While I was struggling with my clothes, Nicole locked our bedroom door and then disappeared again into the closet. I finally managed to get naked and only put a small rip into my shirt as I struggled to pull it off. It's not easy to get undressed, when you're lying down, especially when you're horny.



The click of high heels on tile announced Nicole's return from the closet. She paused in the doorway, turned off the bathroom lights and slowly walked over and lit a candle on the nightstand. The room immediately took on the soft warm glow of cande light. Nicole stayed standing at the side of the bed, just looking down at me, a sexy little smile etched on her face.



My eyes were fixed on her; I was drinking in the sight of her and committing every detail to memory. She was naked except for thong panties and high heels and she held a small hand towel in her fingers. Her breasts were still perfect; full, lush and her nipples were hard and erect. I thought I saw small bite marks on her breasts, but they were very faint. My eyes slipped down and admired her flat stomach and the smooth, shiny thong panties. They were like a sexy second skin; that accentuated her hips and legs. The barest outline of her pussy was visible and I fixated on that sight. I could just make out the discoloration of her panties, around her pussy lips.



She watched my eyes and noticed where they stopped. "I'm very wet baby. I missed you and I missed your tongue most of all. Will you use it on me baby?" I didn't trust my voice, so I nodded frantically at her. The smile on her face transitioned from sexy to triumphant. She lowered her panties and they slid off her hips easily and lay crumpled around her ankles.



She stepped out of her panties carefully, slipped off her high heels and moved on top of me. She dropped the hand towel on my cock as she moved upward toward my face. Her thighs felt like satin; smooth and warm as she straddled my face. The perfume of her pussy was intoxicating as I slowly inhaled it through my nose. I felt the warm wetness of her lips meet my mouth and my tongue snaked out to taste her. The silky, slightly salty wetness ran over my tongue and lips. I pushed my tongue deeper inside her, separating her pussy lips. My hands had clamped onto her hips, refusing to let her move. I was possessed. I couldn't stop, wouldn't stop and my tongue strained to reach every part of her. Her clit was a magic button and I circled it several times with my tongue and felt her buck in response.



The headboard jerked suddenly and I glanced up and saw Nicole grasping it with both hands, leaning forward with her eyes shut tightly. The muscles in her arms were clearly visible as she gripped headboard. A spasm ripped through her pussy, as an orgasm erupted inside her body. Her mouth was clamped shut and I knew she was trying not to moan loudly, because of the girls. She was mostly successful, but a low, long moan finally broke out and filled the room. Her hips bucked hard on my face several times and she pressed her pussy down on my tongue. I continued to lick her pussy, but slowed down a bit, because I knew her orgasm had passed. Her gasps still filled the air, but she sat back on my chest and slowly started to recover.



She eventually released her death grip on the headboard and started to catch her breath. Her thighs were trembling and I ran my fingers over her flat stomach. Our eyes finally met and I was rewarded with a tired, satisfied smile.



"God that was good Nick. It was so powerful, so intense and it seemed to go on and on."



"I'm glad I can still make you cum like that baby. I really like doing that for you."



Her hand caressed my cheek and she leaned down and kissed me softly. Her hair tickled my forehead, but I couldn't have cared less. I held her and made the kiss last, until she finally broke it and lay down beside me.



She rolled on her side towards me, propped her head up on her hand and smiled at me. "What can I do for my husband? I want to please my sexy, sweet man; who gives me such great orgasm?"

<hr pg="3" />Her fingernails ran lightly over my stomach on their way down to my cock. Her hand reached its destination and I felt her fingers encircle my cock and stroked it lightly. My back arched of it's on volition and my head pushed back into the pillow. The soft, sexy sound of her voice filled my ears as I enjoyed the sensations she was creating in me.



"Why don't I tell you about my day? How does that sound, my little cuckold." A gasp burst from me, involuntarily and Nicole stopped stroking my cock.



"Hmmmm. I think you like it when I call you a cuckold. Don't you baby? It's such a weird sounding word. Cuckold, Cuuuckoold." She emphasized the word, drew it out and laid it like a blanket over me. Her breath was hot in my ear as she whispered to me. "You're my dear, sweet cuckold husband and I love you." My eyes snapped open and I looked over.



Our eyes met and I saw love reflected in her eyes. No judgment, no disdain or disgust; her eyes were filled with a deep abiding love and understanding. I also noticed something else. Hidden slightly behind those two overwhelming emotions, was excitement and while it was just barely visible, it was definitely present. This was exciting and fulfilling for her as well.



The warm sensation of her fingers sliding over my cock; brought me crashing back to reality and reminded me of a simple truth. I needed to cum, badly.



"Collin made me strip, completely naked when I got to his hotel room. He wanted me to wear the things he bought me, but when I walked into his bedroom we never made it to the closet. He took me as soon as we reached the bedroom. No foreplay, he just pushed me on the bed and slid inside me." A soft laugh came from her. "He wasn't even fully undressed yet."



Her fingers continued to stroke me softly, but she was watching me carefully. When it looked like it was getting close, she would release my cock. She kept me on edge, kept me aroused and focused on her voice.



"Fortunately, I was already so wet, that it didn't hurt much when he pushed inside. Nick, he's so big! I'm almost overwhelmed; when I feel him slide inside me. Collins cock stretches and fills me completely; and he's so big and muscular." Nicole shivered next to me and closed her eyes. "He just makes me feel so feminine, so submissive and I can't think of anything but him, when we're fucking."



Her fingers released me cock again, I was close, very close. Nicole patted my chest, when a disappointed groan left my mouth.



"Collin fucked me twice. The first time was quick, hard and fast. We both needed each other and the first time was almost frantic." Her eyes were focused on my chest and I saw her smile, almost to herself, as she remembered her time with Collin. "The second time lasted much longer and we were almost late to meet his real estate agent. I barely had enough time to get dressed and fix my hair and make-up. The clothes Collin picked out for me were sexy, but tasteful, thank goodness. Yes, I was showing a lot of cleavage and the shorts were short, but my nipples weren't visible and my ass wasn't hanging out. He let me pick my own shoes though, so he got a nice, long kiss for that one."



Nicole giggled a bit and the question on my face made her continue.



"Collin tried to get me naked again, but the phone rang and it was the front desk. Collin was going to ignore it but I tickled him, escaped his arms and grabbed the phone. I told them we would be right down and you should have seen the look on Collin's face. He was so disappointed; he looked like a little kid who lost dropped his ice cream cone."



"Anyway, we met the real estate agent and she was....professional, barely. She had a hard time taking her eyes off Collin, so I made sure to keep close to him the whole time." Nicole's eyes flashed a bit with anger. "She wasn't even that attractive. She had a flat chest, too much makeup and ass the size of cow." I suspected the real estate agent had actually been attractive, but I knew better than to say anything and Nicole finished. "Bitch, find your own man." I knew she hadn't said that to the real estate agent, but it was clear that's what she was thinking.



"The homes we saw were beautiful and Collin liked a few of them, but he wanted a place with more land and a bit more privacy. Most of the homes were big, but on small lots, so there was hardly any room between the houses. We have another appointment with the real estate agent next week, to see some homes a bit further outside of the city."



"Is that right? You made another appointment with Collin for next week?" Surprise was in my voice and Nicole slowly nodded her head at me. "I am dating him Nick and I'm not going to give that bitch any 'alone time' with Collin. Her fingers made quotation marks in the air and her hand returned to my cock, stroking it softly.



"Don't worry baby, I won't forget about you or our girls." She continued seductively. "I won't neglect my cuckold husband. I prooomise." She drew the word out slowly and brushed her lips against my cheek.



"Hmmmm. God that feels good." Nicole's plans for next week quietly slipped away, as pleasure took over again and spread through my body once more. Her silky smooth voice flowed over me and filled my ears again.



"We did have a long lunch with his attorney and god was it boring. The only thing that made it fun was that Collin asked me to take my bra off for the rest of the day." She knew that would drive me crazy and took her hand off my cock well before she finished. My eyes bulged and I came close to spurting all over myself. A light pain flared in my chest, as Nicole scraped her fingernails across my chest.



"Not yet, little Cucky. Ooooh, I think I like that better. Cuckold sounds so formal, so serious." She tried it out again. "Cucky. Yep, that's better. You don't get to cum yet, my little cucky." She was playing with me now, giggling like a little girl and tapping my cock with the tips of her fingers. Her eyes watched me carefully as she continued.



"The attorney was very nice and charming. He was an older black gentleman, I would say middle 50's and very handsome. He had a bit of a belly, but he wore it well and his voice was very deep. He had one of those voices, that invades your mind if you close your eyes and listen."



She shook her head and refocused on me, but I didn't want to let it go. "So, if it doesn't work out with Collin, would you be interested in his attorney?" I had to grit my teeth and focus to get that sentence out, because Nicole had resumed stroking my cock and it felt fantastic.



A very naughty laugh wafted over me. "Well, he certainly liked me, thats for sure. He couldn't take his eyes off my chest and he stroked my hand, when Collin went to the restroom." She paused and took her fingers off my cock. She was getting very good at gauging my reactions. "Yes Nick. I would definitely be interested in his attorney, but not unless Collin doesn't work out and I'm sure he's going to work out just fine baby." She kissed my cheek and continued.



"Lunch finally ended and we went back to the hotel. I attacked Collin as soon as we were in the hotel room and we fucked right there on the living room couch. The windows were open and everything, but we were both so consumed with each other, that we didn't care. Collin took the picture of me after we were finished." Her fingernails scratched my chest again.



"Oh..Hey guess what?" She giggled and even in the candle lit room, I could tell she was blushing. She didn't wait for me to respond, I guess she meant it as a rhetorical question.



"I can take all of him down my throat now! I'm so excited. I just had to learn to relax my throat, keep calm and anticipate my gag reflex. It's harder than it seems, but I did it baby!" Pride echoed in her voice and she tapped my chest in excitement. "He was so impressed and I can tell he loves it when I take all of his cock. You should see his face."



"Great honey." It was all I could manage. I mean, what was I supposed to say in response?



Fortunately, her fingers returned to my cock and I was soon lost in the waves of pleasure she could summon at will from my body. Her breathing progressively got deeper and more rapid, as she described their afternoon. I also noticed her eyes were closed more than they were open; as she stroked my cock. Apparently, I wasn't the only person drifting in waves of pleasure.



"Collin took me three more times after lunch. Nick, his stamina is amazing and he recovers very, very quickly. It was all I could do to keep up with him and he played my body like an instrument. He brought orgasm, after orgasm, after orgasm out of me and I was completely exhausted when he came the third time."



<em>Close</em>, I thought. <em>I'm so goddamned close, please don't stop Nicole</em>. Nicole must have sensed my thoughts, because she immediately removed her hand from my cock.



"Not yet, cucky. I'm not finished." I let out a very frustrated groan and gripped the sheets tightly. My hips thrust upward into dead space, vainly trying to fuck something. Unsatisfying is how I felt, but that was a gross understatement.



"We jumped into the shower and cleaned up. Collin picked out more clothes for me and I re-applied my make-up. Thank god I brought some in my purse; otherwise I would have looked hideous at dinner. The dress Collin picked out was an expensive designer dress and it fit me very nicely. Of course, I was still bra-less. I thought it was deliciously naughty and Collin liked it, so I didn't mind."



"We had dinner and it was very nice, quiet and intimate. Collin was a perfect gentleman and he was very charming all night." She laughed to herself. "It seemed like every woman in the place was either trying to catch his eye or glare at me. When we were leaving, Collin saw some of his friends in the bar and we walked over to talk to them."



She looked over at me. "Do you remember the couple he was with, when we met him at the Swingers club?" I nodded. I really didn't remember their faces, but I did remember that Collin had gone there with a couple. "Well that's who we met and they are a great couple. We stayed and talked to them for a while. The lady's name is Jennifer and her husband is Tommy. Jennifer and I really hit it off and I think we're going to try and get together this week. Anyway, they're swingers; well they're sort of swingers." She shrugged her shoulders and continued. "They have more of an open marriage, I guess. They're really nice people and suggested that all of us, you included Nick, should get together some time."



My face was impassive as I nodded to her. I wasn't sure how I felt about meeting with folks who knew our situation. I'd have to think about that some more, <em>after,</em> I finally got a chance to cum; which unfortunately wasn't looking likely right now.



"I realized how late I was and we excused ourselves and headed back to the hotel room so I could change. Collin insisted on fucking me one last time." She smiled at me. "He didn't have to insist very hard though, because I was the one who got naked, lay back on the bed and spread my legs for him. I can't explain it Nick, I just saw the bed and I knew Collin wanted me. It felt so good to lay back completely naked, spread my legs as wide as I could and surrender myself to him."



"Collin didn't hesitate and fucked me hard and a little rough, which was fine with me. He had stretched me earlier in the day, so I could take him easily now and it was fun. He called me his little "White Slut" and he gave me some love bites on my breasts, which just made me wild. I came at least three times and then he finally finished inside me. He pushed all the way inside me, when he came and I could feel him spurting inside me and filling me up. God I love that feeling."



A guilty look passed over her face. "I knew I was so late and I rushed to get dressed and back to you and the girls. I put the clothes on that I wore over to Collin's. My underwear was still a little moist from this morning and they felt wet and sticky on the way home. I could feel Collin dripping out of me. Ugh, I'm glad the girls were ready for bed and only needed a hug."



"They missed you baby. I did too. We're glad your back." I smiled over at her.



"Me too baby. I'll try and manage my time better in the future." Another naughty smile played across her lips and her fingers found my cock again. A deep inhale filled my lungs and Nicole's stroking became firmer, more insistent. My orgasm was building again and I desperately wanted to see it to fruition.



Her hot breath caressed my ear and she whispered softly into my ear. "Nick, Collin wanted me to give you a present when I got home. Do you know what it is?" This was clearly the moment she had been waiting for, because her hand stayed on my cock, stroking harder now.



My hips bucked upwards, my back arched and I groaned. I didn't see it, because my eyes were closed, but I felt the towel covering my cock. "What? What was his gift?" My voice was hoarse.



"Collin came inside of me, each time he fucked me. So his gift to you Nick; is my full pussy. My pussy that Collin completely stuffed completely full of cum! Just for my cucky."



Her timing was impeccable. I felt myself explode as she finished whispering in my ear. My hips bucked several times and felt my balls clench and release as I came into the towel. I savored the sensation of my orgasm, because it had been long delayed and it finally arrived with a bang. My chest was heaving and I shuddered several times, before I started to regain some control.



I finally opened my eyes and found Nicole smiling over at me.



"I love you Nick. Was that good for you?"



"I love you to baby. Yes it was awesome. It was amazing. Honestly, that was probably the most intense orgasm I've had in a while. God you're good in bed."



"I'm glad I can bring you that much pleasure honey." She looked down for a moment, before continuing. "Did anything I say bother you; especially that stuff at the end?"



I took a deep breath. It was honesty time and I needed to come clean to Nicole. "No. Not at all, Nicole, I love all of it. You know I've always loved to give you oral sex; I totally love tasting your pussy."



She smiled at me. "Yep, I know and you're really good at it too Nick."



"Aww, thanks baby." I continued. "Since we started this thing with Collin; the thought of going down on you, after you've finished with Collin, drives me wild. I can't get enough of you, after you've been with him. The way you taste; the texture and the thought of Collin fucking you right before; it's intoxicating for me."



My face was getting hot and I ran my palm over my forehead. "Sorry. I guess I got carried away there."



"No, it's ok Nick. Really, it's fine. I feel the same way. I love the way your tongue soothes me, after I've been with Collin. It's exciting for me as well, when I think of you cleaning me up and taking care of me after Collin is finished." She leaned over, kissed me softly and rested her chin on my chest. "I love it too Nick." Our eyes met and we smiled at each other. She tweaked my nose with her finger



"There is one other thing I need to tell you Nick."



"Yea what's that baby?"



"Collin and I discussed my wedding rings today. He asked me to take them off and I did, but I told him it was only for the day and that I would discuss it with you later. I didn't commit to taking them off every time we're together, but I do think we need to discuss it."



"Yea, I noticed you weren't wearing your rings, in the pictures you sent to me earlier."



"I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner Nick."



"It's ok. Things like this are going to come up and we may not always have time to discuss them beforehand. I appreciate you bring it up, rather than waiting for me." She nodded.



"What are your thoughts Nicole?"



"Collin has a good point Nick. If we're going to date, I'm going to meet his friends and business associates and he can't very well introduce a married woman as his girlfriend."



"Yea. I see his point, but your rings are the only link to our marriage when you're out with Collin. He buys you clothes, he pays for everything and without your wedding rings, I just worry. That's all."



She kissed me again and rubbed her hands across my chest.



"I understand Nick. I'm not sure there's an easy answer."



I nodded. "I tell you what Nicole. If you will tell me everything that happens when you're out with Collin; I will be ok if you don't wear your wedding rings. It will help me to know that there are no secrets between the three of us. Sound fair?"  



Nicole hugged me tightly. "That sounds more than fair and I'll let Collin know as well."



"I love you Nicole."



"I love you too Nick, always and forever."



We lay together and just reconnected with each other. We talked, whispered and laughed together, until both of us fell asleep.



Our normal routine started the next day. We got the girls situated and headed off to work. We normally drove separate cars, even though we worked at the same place; because sometimes one of us would need to work late.



I was immediately summoned into my boss's office, when I walked into my area. I knew it wasn't bad, because I was one of the top performers in our section. I was damn lucky to work for my boss, because he was a great leader and a rising star in the company. He was demanding and expected a lot from his team, but he also didn't hesitate to reward good performers.



There had been no pressing issues when I left on Thursday, so even though I took Friday off, things should have been pretty normal this morning.



I stuck my head into his office. "What's up boss?" He waved me inside.



"Nick. Dude, we missed you on Friday." He smiled over at me as I took the chair across from his desk.



"You did? Why?"



"A big opportunity landed in our laps. It was totally unexpected, but holy shit, this could make our year." His excitement was infectious.



"No kidding? Well let's hear it."



"Ok, you're probably going to laugh, because I did when I first heard it. It's the classic con game situation, a guy knows a guy, who knows a guy, who knows another guy-who's connected to someone on the inside." His fingers made quotations and I smiled at him. I had to hear this story.



"Well we just hired a new Executive VP in another department and he has a relationship with a guy, who has a relationship with another guy, who knows the risk manager for the professional sports team in town. We're not talking names yet and you have to keep this quiet, but there's only one professional sports team in town, so that narrows it down a bit."



I nodded. <em>Holy shit, this could be huge</em>, I thought to myself and nodded.



"The bottom line is that we're in the process of setting up some meetings with the decision makers. I'm going to be running point on this, but I need you to be my back-up. You'll be coming to all the meetings, but you probably won't have an active speaking role."



I nodded at him, because that was fine with me. I was a great detail guy, but schmoozing was not my strong suit. My boss was had helped me develop in this area and I was much better; but for something like this, he was the right guy.



"I need you to compile everything that's discussed in these meetings, get back here and get the team running on quotes and options. I can tell you that it's going to pretty complex and there will be a lot of moving parts, so this is definitely going to be a full team effort. You will be working closely with their risk management folks as well. So make sure you get all the details, so that our quotes and prices are accurate."



He paused and smiled at me. "If this works out Nick, our company could take over all of their insurance and financial products. I'm being conservative here, but all their products will probably add up to several million dollars in revenue for our company. Our entire team would be the company Rock Stars."

<hr pg="4" />"Sweet Boss, well let's get started. We need to land this fucker, stuff it and mount it on the company wall." My boss was a fisherman and I knew he'd love the analogy. I was right. He laughed and gave me a high-five, before walking over and closing the door to his office.



"Nick, there's one last thing I wanted to discuss with you." He paused. "You've been the team leader for a few years now and I want you to know that I'll be recommending you to take my spot. I'm going to be moving on shortly, I can't say more right now, but when I do, I want to know that this team is in good hands. You know there will be a lot of competition for my job, but if we can land this account; you would be the obvious choice to replace me."



He looked at me steadily. "Our main focus for the next several weeks; needs to be winning this account and I need you to work your magic with the team. They like and respect you and I know you can do it. It will be a huge win for everyone. Cool?"  



I stood and gave him a fist bump. "Damn straight boss. Give me a few minutes and I'll call the team together and bring them up to speed. Will you let me know when you're first meeting is going to take place?"



"Absolutely. It should be within the week."



I nodded and headed out the door. My cubicle was a little bigger than my peers, because of my position; and I had the most coveted item in the building, my own printer. Yea baby.



I immediately started pulling all of the publicly available information on our potential new account, from the internet. Fortunately, they were a publicly traded company, so I was able to get a good amount of information. I knew the information was going to be a bit dated, but it would serve as a good foundation and we could use it for general planning purposes.



My computer chimed and startled me. It was Nicole. Our company had an instant messaging system that had a horrible chime sound. Everyone hated it, but we couldn't get the vendor to change the damned thing.



<em>Nick, gotta sec?</em>



<em>Not really, something big just came up. Can we talk tonight? I'm going to be swamped today and I'm skipping lunch.</em>



<em>Uuuh. It's about lunch. Collin will be on this side of town and he wanted to take us to lunch. Waddya think?</em>



<em>I'd love to baby. I really would, but I just got out of the boss's office and we have huge opportunity. I planned on skipping lunch today.</em>



<em>Awww. C'mon. It's just lunch. We'll make it quick, say 45 minutes?</em>



<em>Oh, ok. I'll get the team started and slip out for lunch. Only 45 minutes though, I can't stay any longer.</em>



<em>You're the best babe. Love you!</em>



<em>Love you too. Come by and collect me when you're ready and we'll ride together. Cool?</em>



<em>Cool!</em>



<em>Just great,</em> I thought. <em>Lunch with Collin</em>. Don't get me wrong, I do like the guy, but we had basically spent the weekend with him. Well, the nights anyway. <em>Fuck it, I can't think about this now</em>, I thought and got back to work.
