Downsizing Chapter 4

Dan and Stacy went to a couple of the “swinging” sessions in the weeks following the football game. They learned a lot about themselves and each other, but Dan still didn’t feel totally comfortable. He knew he was bisexual, because he enjoyed the men as much as the women, but something wasn’t right.

The ladies at the office picked up on his mood. They knew he was troubled about something, but not quite sure what it might be. Stacy noticed as well. When she asked him what was bothering him, he said he couldn’t put his finger on it. They figured it was because of the swinging, and the fact that he was almost as interested in the men as he was with the women.

Stacy had a suggestion that kind of piqued Dan’s interest a little bit. Her suggestion was that they create their own little swinging group, and see if that changed how he was feeling. So they go to work on creating what they had only been joining in the past few weeks.

Stacy had talked so several of the coworkers that seemed to be a bit more open than the rest, and did it on lunch break, away from the job. She singled out the “singles” and invited them to join for a night of “who knows what,” at their apartment. They all had a good idea of what they were there for when they arrived. But as each of them knocked on the door, Stacy made sure that they all were very clear as to what may happen, and were not allowed in if they said that they may not be able to handle it.

A couple of them were the new men at work, but most of them were the ladies they had grown to value the friendship of. Susan was one of the first to show up, and definitely the most anxious to get things underway. She stated, “Alright, we are all here so let’s get this show on the road!”

Susan peeled off her shirt, and looked at Stacy as if to say “What are you waiting on.” Stacy caught on right away, and her shirt was soon off as well. Dan started unbuttoning his shirt, and taking it off.
