The summer air was thick with the scent of chlorine and fresh-cut grass. Patrik watched as Ana leaned against the pool’s edge, her long brown hair damp and clinging to her shoulders. She sighed contentedly, glancing over at him, who was sprawled out on a lounge chair, his skin already turning pink under the midday sun. This is perfect, he thought, letting the sound of his wife in the pool rock him into a nap. A new home, a new start.

“You okay, babe?” Ana called out, squinting at her from behind her sunglasses.

“Yeah,” Patrik replied, flashing her a smile. “Just thinking how lucky we are.”

Ana chuckled. “We earned it. Hard work pays off.”

He adjusted his chair, already half-asleep. “I’m gonna nap for a bit. You good?”

“Of course,” she said, wading toward the shallow end. As she climbed out of the pool, her black bikini clung to her curves, droplets of water trailing down her legs. She grabbed a towel and draped it over her shoulders, heading toward the kitchen for a glass of iced tea.

"Oh! Hello!"

Patrik stirred as he heard his wife greet someone. His eyes refocused to see a man probably in his mid 40s. He had a full head of dark hair with just a hint of grey in it, large sunglasses that you might see in a Tom Cruise movie, and he was tall and was built like he used to swim back in the day and kept up with it to stay healthy. The man was talking to Ana, and Ana pointed back to Patrik, saying "Patrik! Come meet the neighbor!"

Patrik got up and walked over to greet the man, Patrik's flip flops smacking against the bottoms of his feet as he did. He brought a hand up to shade his eyes and reached the other hand out. "Nice to meet you! Sorry we didn't come introduce ourselves first, just moved in and all."

"Not at all I know a young couple like you has better things to do than mingle with the old cranky neighbors." Will grasped Patrik's hand and shook firmly." I was just telling your lovely wife here that my name is Will Bennett, and I've lived next door for almost 10 years now." He smiled, a warm, inviting expression and shot a look over at Ana as he shook Patrik's hand.

"It's nice to meet you Will. Got any fun stories about the neighborhood?" Patrik grinned.

Will laughed and put his hands up to touch both of their shoulders. "Not any that I'd be willing to tell completely sober. Get a couple beers in me and put me in that hot tub and we'll talk."

Patrik was taken aback at how touchy the man seemed and tried to steal a glance at Ana, but her eyes were locked onto Will, a big grin plastered over her face.

“Well hey, I didn’t mean to intrude—just wanted to introduce myself. I was also about to tell Ana here that I work from home full Patrike, so if you ever need anything at all here is my cell number. Neighbors should look out for each other, ok?”

Will whipped out a business card and handed it to Ana, his personal cell number written on the back. Ana looked at the card for a half second too long and then looked back up at Will. "Wait, you work at MintLock Technologies?"

Will did a double take from looking at Patrik back to Ana. "Why yes, I do! Senior Software Engineer, very boring stuff."

Patrik rolled his eyes "Here we go.." He looked at Will in an 'you shouldn't have done that' kind of way.

Ana was practically vibrating, "I am a software engineer too! Not for a company as prestigious as MintLock but I hope to one day get there."

"Oh well what do you know? Small world! What firm are you working for?" Will seemed keenly interested in hearing all about his new neighbor's job.

Ana and Will talked for the next few minutes about work, Patrik only catching about every third word, but Will seemed impressed.

"Well hey if you ever need to bounce ideas off of someone, give me a holler, ok? Working from home is nice but I could use some human interactions every now and then. But let me get out of your hair, so nice to meet you two!" And with that, Ana and Patrik said their goodbyes and they watched Will saunter off back towards his house next door.

"He seems so nice!" Ana said to Patrik, beaming.

"He did. He also couldn't stop looking at you, Mrs. White Bikini." Patrik teased.

"Oh yeah? I guess it works then." Ana winked and turned away from Patrik to walk into the house and she swayed her hips seductively as she did. Patrik stared after his wife, he was truly a lucky man.

Over the next few weeks, Will became a bit of a fixture in their new lives here in their new home. Will would chat with Patrik when Patrik was on his way out to work in the city, he'd pop his head over the fence to shoot the shit, and he'd even help out with some bigger things like carrying in some furniture that Ana had ordered. Patrik couldn't help notice the way Ana's eyes seemed to stay on Will too long and she smiled whenever he was around. He chalked it up to projection and didn't let it bother him. But he also remembered how Will looked at her in that bikini that first day...

One day, Patrik was working hard at the email factory in town. He moved here to pursue his career of being a Consultant for Consultants. He was typing away at his keep board when his phone buzzed in his pocket. It was Ana.

Ana: I am so stuck on this feature request I might just scream. Bring earplugs home!

Patrik: I'm sorry baby! Big problems at work?

Ana: Yeah I'm just working in Rust and I don't have as much experience as I could. Something seemingly simple is giving me a hard Patrike. Youtube has been no help at all!

Patrik: Why don't you go ask Will?

Patrik saw the bubbles pop up on his phone indicate that Ana was typing and then they went away. A minute went by, and they reappeared.

Ana: I can't bother him with something like this! He'll think I'm an idiot.

Patrik: He will not. He'll appreciate that you thought to ask him for advice. Plus he'll get to imagine that black bikini again ;)

Ana: STOPPP you bring that up all the Patrike, maybe you want me to show him what he's missing??

Ana sent a picture of her wearing the black bikini inside, sticking her ass out to the side and giving the camera a peace sign in the pic.

Patrik: Are you just wearing that around??

Ana: I was going to get in the pool after work and took my shirt off for you. And Will, maybe ;)

Patrik: Now it's your turn to STOPPP

Ana: If you want me to..

Patrik sat for a second. He always was turned on by the idea of showing off his wife a bit more than they had explored in the past. What better way to push the envelope a little than with something harmless like this?

Patrik: I don't actually. Go over wearing that :)

Ana: Are you serious?

Patrik: I am. He'll definitely give you a good answer if you show up in that! We've talked about me showing you off somePatrike.

Ana: You're so bad. Ok fine, I'm going. I feel ridiculous.

Patrik: Have fun! ;)

Patrik expected a text back, so he stared at the conversation. The bubbles didn't come back, she left his last text on read. He couldn't stop himself from picturing them together, Ana coming over with her laptop in tow, wearing her revealing black bikini top, leaning over to put down the computer and her full breasts straining against the material. He pictured Will trying to solve her problem but being distracted by the beautiful woman that entered his home, and not being able to resist reaching out to touch the hem of her bikini bottoms on her waist...

Patrik snapped himself out of it, a pit of anxiety and desire roiling in his stomach. It was just a fantasy, it's fine, he told himself. He went back to typing away at his emails, keeping an eye on his phone.

Patrik drove home a bit faster than usual subconsciously. He had to see his wife and find out what happened, and if she got her problem solved. That was it.

The car pulled into the garage and Patrik walked straight inside. "Honey??" he called out. No response. Patrik's heartbeat spiked, could she still be over at Will's? That would mean she'd been there for hours, what could they be doing for that long-

Patrik's rollercoaster of thought slammed to a halt as he passed the sliding glass door leading outside. Ana was in the pool, reading a book on a floaty. Black bikini still sexy as ever.

He took a deep breath, and noticed that even though he thought his wife might be with Will, he was surprisingly hard as a rock right now.

The sliding glass opened for Patrik and Ana looked up. "Hey there office man! Come join me!"

30 minutes later Patrik had stowed all his work equipment and jumped into the pool with his wife. He swam up next to her and lowered his voice, in case the neighbor was outside over the fence.

"Soooo, how'd it go over there?" Patrik bobbed his head towards Will's house.

Ana laughed. "How'd I know you were going to ask me about that? You're a pervert." Ana hit the top of his head playfully with the back of her book.

Unperturbed, Patrik pressed more. "Seriously though, did you get your question answered at least?"

Ana looked at him over her sunglasses, and then went back to her book and said in a playfully uninterested tone, "Yes Mr. Bennett helped me quite a bit. And then I helped him."

An instant stroke of heat went through Patrik to his crotch. Why did this turn him on so much? "What did you help him with?"

A sly grin plastered over Ana's face. "Wouldn't you like to know..."

"Ana! Please!" Patrik practically begged.

"It's not all that exciting, I'm just teasing you. I invited him over for dinner this Friday is all. He gets lonely with all his family out of state and working from home, I figured it would be nice for him to have a meal cooked by someone who isn't him or a fry cook." Ana tossed her book to the edge of the pool. "What's gotten into you anyway?"

Patrik thought for a second. He wasn't sure what had gotten into him. Words spilled out of him in a stream of consciousness. "I am not sure, Ana. We've talked before about trying different things, and the way he looks at you I know he's attracted to you, I don't know it just seemed fun to know he was going to be so close to you alone while you had this sexy bikini on." Patrik looked up and Ana was studying him closely. "Did I take it too far?"

Ana shook her head, "Not at all, Patrik. I thought it was fun too. A hot new fantasy I can tease you about how fun." She leaned in and kissed him. "Who knows, if you're good maybe I'll wear something sexy for Friday night and you can show me off all you want."

Patrik paused, did her breath smell different? No he was just imagining things. "That sounds fantastic, honey. I'd like that."

Ana ruffled her fingers through his still dry hair. "Good boy. Now go get me my phone it's over by where my book landed."

Patrik obeyed, and handed the phone to Ana. "I'm going to go get dinner ready, do you want anything in particular?"

Ana was smiling down at her phone, "Hmmm? Oh whatever you want honey you know I'm not picky." She went back to her phone.

Patrik walked inside, already feeling the anticipation for Friday night.

The house smelled like Ana's famous roast chicken, as her and Patrik made the final preparations for Will to come over for dinner. Patrik had changed into a fashionable sweater from his work button-up and Ana was wearing a pair of tight around the waist and flared jeans and a black crop top that was low enough to show off her assets.

Patrik walked up behind her and gave her neck a kiss and grabbed her ass. "Dinner almost ready?"

"Mhmmm, set the table for me? Will should be here any minute." Ana responded, leaning into him kissing her neck.

"Gladly, darling." Patrik gave her ass another light pat as he went about setting the table with "the good plates", which really just meant the nice set they got as a wedding present but didn't really like that much, like many millennial couples.

A knock came from the front door, "I'll get it!" and walked out to greet their guest. Patrik heard the door open, and Ana's warm voice was greeting their guest.

They both walked back in and Will greeted Patrik warmly. He jumped in to help Patrik set up.

Dinner was served and the conversations flowed easily. Will had a way with making Patrik and Ana talk about themselves, and the stories he would tell were engaging and flowed like Will had told them a thousand Patrikes.

Patrik finished off his second glass of wine with dinner, and Ana quickly poured him another one. "Careful honey, it seems like you want me to get drunk."

Ana's shoes clicked on the tile floor as she walked back to her seat, and she chuckled. "Not at all." She leaned in to look at Will, her assets fully on display. "Patrik is a bit of a sleepy drunk, aren't you honey?"

"Only a little bit. I just like my beauty sleep." Patrik raised his refreshed glass to his lips and took a long drink.

"You and I could use a lot more beauty sleep, couldn't we Patrik?" Will laughed. "Ana is taking all the beauty from us men."

A tingling sensation shot through Patrik. Will had been checking Ana out, but he hadn't outright said anything like that yet tonight.

"You boys and your flattery." Ana said and Patrik could hear the amused eye-roll in her voice. She stepped out towards the restroom.

Will leaned over to Patrik. "You've got one hell of a woman there, Patrik. Good work."

"She is sexy isn't she?" Patrik responded and took another drink of wine.

"Keeping her tied down must be another full Patrike job." Will murmured.

Patrik laughed, "She could do whatever she wants I wouldn't do-"

"Are we about ready for the hot tub?" Ana interrupted Patrik by walking back in, she had completely shed her jeans and crop top and now wore that sexy black bikini that she teased Patrik with.

Both men just stared at her for a second before Will got up. "Yes I'll change right now. Dinner was delicious Ana."

Will left to change and Ana leaned down to Patrik, "Now you get to see him check me out right across the hot tub."

Patrik could feel his eyelids getting heavy. "I'll go change now too."

Patrik got up and there was too much alcohol in his system, he took a wobbly step and Ana called after him, "I'll be waiting for you boys!"

The door to the downstairs bathroom where Will changed opened and Patrik saw the older man walk by with his swim trunks on and no shirt. The man was very finely muscled, but had a layer of fat around him that showed him to be an office worker who was past his college years. Patrik couldn't help but notice how he was a lot taller and stronger than himself. The thoughts came quickly as he made it up to his bedroom to change.

Patrik slowly changed into his swim trunks and headed back downstairs. The wine made him sluggish, and by the Patrike he got down there, Ana and Will were already in the hot tub. He saw them and froze for a moment, as they seemed very close together in the tub. They were talking and Ana was leaning in as if to whisper in his ear, but her hands were under the water. Will then laughed and looked down at her shaking his head.

Patrik opened the door and he noticed Ana subtly scoot away from Will just a little bit. "Come on in, slowpoke!"

The wine made Patrik sluggish but also made him want to push the envelope even further. He got into the hot tub and looked with his best 'sleepy face' to both of them. "I'm sorry, Ana you are right I am a sleepy drunk."

Will chuckled and patted Patrik on the shoulder. "No worries, champ, if you doze off we'll prop you up."

"Patrik, do you want us to call it a night early?" Ana asked, her eyes worried, but also something else.

"No, no not at all. Let's keep the party rolling." Patrik really wanted to get an eyeful of Will checking out his wife in her sexy bikini. But the wine wasn't doing him any favors, and when Ana launched into a long work story about a nightmare client that wanted services migrated off of something called 'log4j', Patrik felt his head start to lull back...

Flashes of movement in front of him, Ana had her back to him, leaning down. Will's powerful hands were reaching around her for the bikini straps.

Ana's voice "-e can't hear a thing.".

Will standing up, completely naked with a huge cut, veiny cock. Patrik's wife reaching out and grabbing, stroking.

Will's voice "we should probably..."

Water splashing, a soft pillow, the couch.

Will sitting in his favorite chair with his head thrown back. Ana on her knees in between his legs, her head bobbing up and down.

Patrike woke up in the middle of the night. Someone, probably his lovely wife Ana, had led him in his drunken nap, to the couch in the living room. Patrik walked upstairs and got into bed, it was cold but he only slept the best while here.

The sun spilled into the master bedroom as Patrik woke up to the sound of pots and pans banging around downstairs. He got up and stretched, the events of last night pouring through his mind. His head hammered, he hadn't drank enough water last night with his wine when he fell asleep in the...hot tub.

The dream he had came flooding back. Nothing continuous, just glimpses of steamy events and words that he wished would've happened. Right?

He got into a gym shirt and headed downstairs. Ana was flying around the kitchen, cleaning up from last night. She had on a pair of leggings and a big t-shirt he didn't remember her buying. "Finally awake, sleepyhead?" She chimed. She seemed like she was in a good mood.

"Good morning Ana. I hope me falling asleep didn't ruin the party?"

"Oh not at all, I know how you are." Ana smiled at him and kept cleaning.

"What did you and Will do after I went to sleep?" Patrik asked, the images in the dream dancing in his mind.

"Um, nothing really just chatted about work stuff. He helped me get you to the couch and then we turned in." Ana said but didn't look at Patrik while she spoke.

"That's crazy, I had this really weird dream." Patrik said.

"Oh yeah? What about, baby." Ana still not looking at Patrik.

"Well, in my dream, you and Will started making out right in front of me in the hot tub. You back arched and he took your bikini top off." Patrik let the words hang in the air.

Ana stopped what she was doing and turned to look at him with a confused look on her face, her nose and eyebrows all scrunched up.

"Pretty crazy dream, right, Ana?" Patrik asked.
