The remaining time between Richard and Nikki wasn't exactly silent, but it was nonetheless profound.  For her part, Nikki had to consciously resist the urge to look back; to self-censor on what was now oozing from a faucet of pent up sexual energy.  It wasn't as though she and Chris had a<em>bad</em>sex life.  But this was different, and different was something most marriages -- not just theirs -- were sorely lacking in.<br/><br/>That said, she only glanced back once more between that transgression of a smooch and her husband's return, but she remained comfortably within the younger man's embrace.  Arms curled about his neck, any onlooker might've expected that her elongated form simply belonged to the other's; and that the ring on her finger had been put there by him.<br/><br/>It wouldn't have taken a rocket scientist to discern what was on the verge of happening.  With heavy, fluttering lids and that soft dreamy smile, plush lips were on the brink of sinking into Richard's once again when Chris returned.  There was no jump or startle.  Rather, she simply paused in what was happening, opting to turn and look at her husband as though he were any other man interrupting a moment.  There was not one iota of annoyance.  Rather, the paradigm simply seemed to have shifted, and she was going to play whatever game this was until he told her to stop.<br/><br/><em>"Oh,"</em>she cast a brief and cursory glance back to Richard, latching eyes with him long enough for that mischievous glimmer to resurface; alongside a coy little smile that could've looked just as devious whether she wore it while decorating a birthday cake or sucking another man's cock.<em>"That's our secret.  Sorry.  You shouldn't have gone,"</em>she teased, flashing her husband a devious wink.<br/><br/><em>"It looks like we're bein' evicted though.  Y'all wanna take this party to our place?  I want Richard to meet the pups.  And he definitely needs to try one of your margaritas, hon."</em>Already she was starting for the door.  Arms unhinged from Richard's broad shoulders, she latched for his hand in one of hers while its sister grabbed for Chris's.  Together, she started tugging at both of them.<br/><br/><em>"You set up an uber for us, right, hon?"</em>She called back to Chris.
