Ladies Circle part 5

As usual, when Joe got home from work that night he interrogated Nicky about her day. She told him it was the usual routine but she glossed over her trip to Angela’s. She was still buzzing from the experience, especially watching Caroline and Angela together after she had brought Caroline off. She was slightly jealous of the obvious intimacy between the two women as Caroline expertly brought Angela to her climax.
She was in two minds as to whether she might raise with Joe the question of a threesome again, after her experience today, but she knew that Joe would only accuse her of being a tart. It was all right for him to suggest it but not her; he was old fashioned like that.

Oddly enough it was the next evening that Joe raised the matter again. He seemed surprised and suspicious that she did not dismiss the suggestion out of hand as she usually did, but he soon forgot his suspicions as he enthused about Nicky’s sudden willingness to broaden her horizons. He said he knew “just the girl” and Nicky wondered who he would bring home. She also wondered, in passing, why and how Joe thought she would be “just the girl” but pushed this to the back of her mind.

Joe was keen to try a threesome as soon as possible, presumably before Nicky changed her mind, and he promised to bring the girl home following evening. Nicky spent the next day wondering what the evening would bring. She was to know soon enough as she heard the front door open and she stood up from the sofa, waiting with some anticipation and, she had to admit, not a little excitement, as she heard Joe’s voice, mixed with another girl’s, coming from the hallway.

Her husband came into the lounge first, with a big grin on his face, and behind him came a girl he quickly introduced as Maria. Nicky was expecting someone slim, blonde and glamorous, attributes that she knew Joe held very highly in a woman, and so she was somewhat surprised at this short, dark haired and, not to put too fine a point on it, chubby girl who hovered behind Joe.

“Hi!” she exclaimed with a nervous smile. Nicky wasn’t sure how to greet Maria, bearing in mind that she was almost certainly sleeping with her husband, but it was obvious that she was as nervous as Nicky was about the situation. Only Joe seemed to be oblivious to the circumstances as he suggested they open a bottle of wine. He then disappeared into the kitchen with an exhortation for the girls to “get to know each other”.

“Sit down why don’t you.” suggested Nicky and Maria gratefully sat herself at the other end of the sofa from Nicky. The two girls eyed each other, like protagonists in a divorce battle.

“You’re gorgeous!” Maria suddenly blurted out. “I was expecting… you know…”

“You’re wondering why Joe sleeps with you if he’s got someone like me at home aren’t you.” Nicky regretted this as soon as she said it. Although it brought out into the open the fact that she knew they were sleeping together, it did infer that she thought Maria was unattractive which, bearing in mind Joe was hoping they would all go to bed together, was a somewhat inauspicious start to the proceedings.

“You didn’t know Joe was a chubby-chaser did you?” replied Maria with a grin on her face. Nicky was relieved that she hadn’t taken offence and grinned back.

“Sorry I didn’t mean it to come at like that. Not a good start really is it?”

“That’s all right. It’s me that should feel embarrassed. You obviously know that Joe and I sleep together and here I am coming into your home.” She paused. “Joe kept telling me that he wanted a threesome but you weren’t interested. What made you change your mind?”

“Something happened the other day…”

“What was that then?” asked Joe who had now come back into the lounge with a bottle of wine and three glasses. Nicky looked up guiltily. “Come on then…” demanded Joe. Nicky caught a sympathetic glance from Maria. Was he like this with her she wondered?

“It’s just that when I went to the gym I saw a couple of girls naked in the changing room…” her voice trailed off.

“Told you!
