Shaking with anticipation Kevin nervously stares at himself in the mirror. His nerves getting the best of him. His inner monolog asking the questions chewing at his soul.
“What if she thinks I’m a pervert? What if she turns her nose up in disgust? I’m not sure I can do this.”
He tightens his grip around a few already wrinkled pieces of paper. Scanning his list, he takes a deep breath and steps out of the bathroom. Allison is tucked comfortably into bed. The blanket pulled up to her chin, she’s playing one of her phone puzzle games paying little attention to anything else in the room. Kevin climbs into the bed next to her. Glancing over he quietly mumbles a question.
“What?” Allison questions.
Clearing his throat Kevin speaks up more clearly this time.
“Can we talk about something?”
Allison closes her game, sits up to give him her full attention.
“Of course.”
Not able to male eye contact, Kevin empties his feelings about his growing sexual frustrations. Allison listens quietly. Absorbing every word flowing from Kevin. After clearing his mind, he eagerly awaits her response. Allison adjusts her glasses looks at Kevin and says….
“Why haven’t you told me this sooner? I’m here as your wife and partner to help you discover and learn these things together. What did you have in mind?”
Kevin visibly releases the tension from his shoulders. Her response better than he imagined. Kevin fumbles for the wrinkled pieces of paper he didn’t realize he was gripping so hard his knuckles turned white.
“Well, I wrote a list of all the things I’ve thought about, had dreams about or just flat out want to try on bed. I even put things on this list outside of my own comfort zone. I was hoping we could pick one together every night and just do it? What do you think?”
Allison asks to see the list.
“Well, obviously that depends on the list. I’m not doing anything with pee or poop. But I’m pretty much willing to try almost anything else. If we come across something I’m not comfortable with can we skip it?”
Kevin, thinks for a moment.
“I mean yeah, but that kind of defeats the purpose of this experience. I’ll tell you what. Let’s male a deal. If you get to opt out of something that makes you uncomfortable than it’s only fair I get to as well. So, if you pass on one I get to pass on one. Deal?”
“Deal!” Allison enthusiastically replies.
After snuggling back down under the covers, Allison brings her phone back up to continue her game, but just before she does, she questions.
“When do we start?”
Kevin hums inquisitively.
“Tomorrow morning after showers?”
“Another deal.” Allison chirps.
