‘So’ I asked Kaija, ‘do you swim?’
Again she looked puzzled.
‘Yes. A great deal. How did you know?’
Anna was amused.
‘It’s your broad shoulders, leifje. You must know this.’
‘Liefje,’ I think is Dutch for ‘darling’.
‘Oh ja. My shoulders. Of course. Yes. I like to swim in the wild. In the rivers and lakes, yes?’
‘In Finland?’ Anna asked, ‘a little cold, perhaps? You must use a wetsuit.’
‘Cold? No. Invigorating,’ she replied, ‘ and no wetsuit. I like to swim naked yes?’
The thought if this woman, swimming naked, really appealed to me. She asked me if I swam too and I replied that I did and that I also was fond of skinny-dipping. Although mainly in the sea.
‘I’ll bet you are good at swimming,’ Anna said, almost dreamily, ‘and naked too. That’s not very English.’
‘I like the feel of being naked in open water,’ I said, ‘it’s wonderful. Sensuous. There’s nothing to compare.’
Both women seemed to sit back a little and take this in. I noticed Kaija crossed her legs.
I took a moment to pour each of us another glass of wine. There was a silence… perhaps what might be described as a pregnant pause.
‘So how do you two know each other?’ Kaija asked, innocently.
Anna gave me a wry look and then turned to her.
‘We met for the first time a few months ago. This is only our second meeting.’
‘Oh,’ Kaija was surprised, ‘I assumed you were old friends’
‘We…’ I thought about how to phrase what I was about to say next, ‘we got to know each other… quite quickly.’
Once again, Anna gave me a wry smile. Seeing this, Kaija seemed to click.
‘Oh. Oh I see.’
She didn’t smile. She was silent. I thought perhaps we might have offended her.
‘He thought I looked like Sylvia Kristel,’ continued Anna, apparently oblivious.
‘The actress. ‘Emmanuelle’?’ said Kaija, almost forlornly, ‘I remember the film vaguely. It is often shown on late night cable TV. It is what they used to call soft pornography, I think.’
She was sort of babbling. I realise now, we’d probably made her nervous.
Anna continued.
‘Pete and I started talking here – in this very bar – and I think we both…well, the conversation turned to what we wanted. And that turned out to be each other, yes?’
I nodded.
‘Well,’ said Anna, ‘we decided to act upon it. What else were we to do?’ She paused. ‘It is making me moist, just thinking about it.’
Anna’s little gambit – to bring that deliberately sexual element into the conversation didn’t seem to have quite landed. If Anna was expecting a reaction, Kaija was unreadable. She was looking at me intently. I still wasn’t sure what she was thinking. Had she started to suspect Anna’s little scheme for all three of us? Would she know that this conversation was part of an attempted seduction? I could see what Anna was doing. Exactly what she did last time with me. She was hoping to turn Kaija on by talking about how aroused she was. Letting out the details of an intimate moment that would make Kaija part of the intimacy.
Another pregnant pause.
‘Was it good?’ Kaija asked, suddenly. She was asking Anna, but she was still looking at me.
‘You two. Together,’ she said, as if for clarification, ‘Was it good?’
Grinning, Anna put her hand on my arm and stroked it sensuously.
‘It was very, very good.’
Then she turned to Kaija.
‘I might lend him to you if you like.’
There was a pause, then Kaija answered.
‘I might let you.’
And this time her voice was darker, more assured.
Kaija was looking at me intently again, only now with more interest. Was that…lust I could see in her eyes? Certainly it was the beginnings of it. And I have to say it was reciprocated.
I decided to lighten things a little and pretended to be affronted.
‘Am I some sort of livestock? Honestly, you women – we men are just objects to you.’
There was a brief pause and then they both burst out laughing. And then, when the laughter subsided, Kaija said, ‘actually I have a fantasy about that.’
It was a step forward into new territory and all three of us knew it.
‘Oh…. A fantasy?’ Anna purred, ‘you must tell us.’
Kaija seemed to go a little red, but she ploughed on.
‘I have the choice of three naked men, yes? I am in the forest, and I have just emerged from a pool…a pond. I am naked too and they are wild, these naked men…feral you know?…like deer…in the fantasy I am stalking them, like prey. They come from the forrest and stand in front of me, waiting to flee. I must choose one, because the others may run but…’ and here she really did get embarrassed, blushing heavily and her words came tumbling out at speed, ‘but in the end I have all three, one after the other, one on top, one underneath and one from behind and I am very excited yes?… I cannot believe I have told you that,’ she gushed, ‘I don’t know what made me.’
She stopped, then she said, ‘I suppose you two shared something with me. Something of your history. Something intimate. I thought I should share something with you also.’
Now she really was blushing properly. She picked up her glass and took a big gulp of wine.
I have to admit I was more than a little turned on. She hadn’t taken her gaze off me. Maybe she was imagining what it would be like with me. I was certainly imagining what it might be like with her. And the thought of her and Anna. Naked. Being in the same room with both of them, all of us naked, touching, caressing, kissing…
‘You must not be embarrassed,’ Anna told her, ‘this is why we are here.’
‘It… it is?’ Kaija was back to being puzzled, ‘am I…are you?…’ she fought for the word, ‘..viettely… are you seducing me?’
I could see Anna slipping her hand on Kaija’s thigh. She let her fingers glide along it, stroking the fabric of her skirt.
‘I know you want me,’ said Anna quietly, ‘ you told me so, when we last met…’
‘Oh I was drunk. I should not have said so…’
‘It’s alright,’ Anna said, soothingly, ‘ because…well, I feel the same. Pete feels the same too, don’t you, Pete?’
I nodded.
‘Very much so, Kaija.’
Kaija looked at me and smiled properly for – I think – the first time, that evening.
‘You find me attractive?’
‘Of course, I said.’
‘Hmm,’ she seemed to be considering,’so…what do we do next?’
Anna decided to take charge.
‘I have an idea. Here…’ she poured out the last drops of wine into each of our glasses, ‘finish up and then we go to my room. Don’t let the waiter take this,’ she added, indicating the empty bottle, ‘we are going to need it.’
******
The journey to the room together was electric, filled with sexual tension. As we travelled in the lift, none of us said a word. Kaija was, if anything, stoney faced, Anna carrying the empty wine bottle was grinning like the cat that had the cream. I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror and thought I looked a bit like a rabbit caught in the headlights. I don’t think I really believed that this was happening.
We arrived at Anna’s room. She produced her keycard and we all trooped in behind her in silence. Once in, we stood together at the end of the bed. I was thinking and I suspect, Kaija was also thinking, ‘what happens now?’ But Anna was in control. Anna was always in control.
‘So now we play a little game. It’s called ‘Spin The Bottle’. Come come. Let us make ourselves comfortable.’
About half an hour later, we were all seated cross legged on the floor, facing each other. We were in various states of undress and intoxication. And thus quite giggly. Anna, it turned out had a bottle of Schnapps for us to share.
The rules were thus:
The empty wine bottle from before was spun on the floor between us and then, when it stopped spinning, whoever it pointed to was given the choice of ‘truth’ or ‘forfeit’. By and large ‘forfeit’ meant removing an item of clothing. ‘Truth’ meant answering any question asked. Once this was done, that person had to down a shot of the schnapps. I was down to my teeshirt and trousers. Anna had managed to lose shoes, skirt, jacket and tights, so was sitting in just her panties and blouse. Her shapely legs, very much on display. Kaija had only taken off her skirt and shoes and was sitting in panties with her suit jacket on. I was dying to see what, if anything, was underneath it.
We were all, after the two bottles of wine and the shots, a little tipsy.
It was hot in the room – Anna had put the thermostat right up. I’m pretty sure it was to encourage disrobing. The bottle had just stopped spinning and was pointing at Kaija for the second time in a row.
‘Okay, I’m not doing another forfeit,’ she said firmly, disappointing both myself and Anna – she wanted to see what was (or wasn’t) underneath the jacket too – ‘ so,it’s truth.’
‘What’s your favourite sexual position?’ I asked.
‘Oooh,’ said Anna, appreciatively, ‘nice.’
‘Oh, okay,’ said Kaija, thoughtfully, ‘with a man or a woman?’
‘Let’s start with a man,’ said Anna, glancing towards me,’for instance, how would you like Pete to fuck you?’
‘Well,’ Kaija said, looking me up and down, ‘hmm. In Pete’s case…hmm I think I’d like him to be on top…only with my legs on his shoulders, yes? That way there’s you know, bouncing and…momentum? And I can look into his eyes…’
She broke off giggling, before downing a shot, then reaching forward to spin the bottle once more, only to have it point at her again. She cried out in protest as Anna laughed, loudly.
‘Forfeit! You have to do a forfeit!’
‘No!’ She protested. And she hugged the jacket around her.
‘Come on…’ said Anna, imploringly.
‘Fine.’ Kaija pouted grumpily, but relented.
She slowly undid the three buttons at the front and slipped the jacket off her shoulders. At last, I thought.
I had been right. Nothing underneath. Her long blonde hair cascading down to her bare, white shoulders. Her breasts were beautiful. Large, round and firm. She had large pale nipples with big aureolas. I noted he contrast between her and Anna’s small red-brown nipples I’d seen last time. Kaija leaned back on her hands and stretched her neck, rolling her head from side to side with her eyes closed. She looked graceful, sensuous.
Anna noticed me staring and, grinned, pouring out another shot before spinning the bottle once more.
This time it landed on me and I figured I could afford to lose my shirt.
