“Oh honey, it wasn’t too bad,” she said. “It couldn’t have been more than an hour or so.”
He shrugged and said, “That’s being generous.”
“Awe, you did good,” said Kinsey. “Once we got those trunks off, you never wanted to put them on again. You were like a little boy who wants to run naked out the front door.”
Eric’s cell rang. He ignored it. “I started to relax once I realized no one was paying any attention to us,” said Eric.
“Babe, everyone was watching you”, said Kinsey. “You are drop dead gorgeous. They were just discreet about it. You know what I mean. Things like not applauding when you finally took your trunks off.”
Eric gave Kinsey a kiss. Smiling he said, “She’s my greatest fan. It was so liberating to finally take them off. I felt free. In fact, it was kind of hard to put them back on at the end of the day.”
Kinsey sighed. “We loved it so much we went back every day,” she said. “Somewhere around our third day on the clothing optional beach we realized we were nudists.”
“Naked on a public beach…where is this place?” asked Ginny.
“Sorry,” said Kinsey. “We were staying at Trump Towers, which is just north of Haulover Park. A group of local nudist activists who call themselves, South Florida Free Beaches, managed to convince Miami-Dade County to legalize clothing optional in the northern section of Haulover Park.”
“Surely there was a lot of political fallout from that,” said Ginny.
“About what you would expect from the moral majority,” said Kinsey. “But the cash strapped park system made so much money from parking fees they weathered the storm.”
Ginny was hanging on every word. She seemed particularly interested in Kinsey’s experience and directed her question to her old friend.
“So, how did you end up swinging?” asked Ginny.
“Well, there is no sexual activity permitted on the beach,” said Kinsey. “That helped us to relax and just enjoy the pleasures of public nudity. Everyone was friendly and we met a lot of people. In fact, we met one couple who invited us to hit a club with them.”
Eric shifted in his seat. “Humm…the club,” said Eric. “The couple was friendly enough, but I was a little suspicious. When I pressed them for details, they admitted the name of the club is Trapeze. I still didn’t make the connection, so they just came out and told us it was a swing club.”
“Did you go?” asked Ginny.
“Not at first,” said Kinsey. “We talked about it for two days, before I finally admitted to Eric that one of my fantasies is to watch and be watched. So we went.”
I was still stunned and asked, “Watch and be watched…you mean having sex?”
Kinsey nodded.
It was unimaginable and scared the hell out of me, but I also felt something else…something unexpected and asked, “How could you do something like that?”
We were interrupted by Eric’s ringtone. He cursed and answered it this time.
“This better be important,” said Eric.
He listened quietly, as the blood drained from his face. Nodding his head in the direction of the house, he walked away without explanation. Kinsey excused herself and followed him. For the first time, we were left alone together.
Without a diversion, or anyone else to distract us, the tension bubbled to the surface. Judging by her pinched brow, I knew something was bothering her and genuinely wanted to make her feel better, but couldn’t get past the naked body so close to me and what I’d seen earlier in the pool. I disliked what she had become and ended up asking a little too coldly, “What are you doing here, Ginny?”
She responded with a sharp intake of breath and leaned away from me ever so slightly. Her eyes shifted rapidly from side to side a few times as if she was processing alternative answers. Finally, she made up her mind and said, “I’m in town for a conference and wanted to see Kinsey.
