Our trip was a complete success. I started writing this, but I gave way too many details and it went on for way too long!
We had a pleasant drive to ButterCup’s city. We left after SirGawain got out of work on Friday, so we didn’t arrive at the hotel until almost midnight. Upon check in, there was a dude ahead of me who was completely shitfaced. He was talking very loudly, asking me if I had blue hair for real or if he was just seeing things. He also introduced his wife to me, saying “I just met this woman 10 minutes ago, she liked me so much she agreed to come here to this hotel with me.” She wasn’t having it though - “we made this reservation a couple of weeks ago; we’ve been married for 10 years.” LOL
I told her I understood her exasperation, and that my husband and I had been together for 16 years. “Why’d you leave him in the car?” The drunk was even louder now. “Is that him? Tell your husband to come inside!” When I responded that the guy in the car wasn’t my husband, they both laughed super loud and completed their check in. When I told SirGawain, he laughed too!
We had a really nice room - we had paid extra for a king suite with a whirlpool tub
The next morning, we got up and showered and did a Starbucks run. We also swung by Walmart because SirGawain had forgotten his iWatch charging cable. Even with those two stops, we beat ButterCup and her family to the mall arcade. SirGawain and I played a game of air hockey while we waited.
I knew ButterCup had lost weight but I was still really surprised by her appearance. She was looking nothing like I had expected, and I was very attracted to her. We chatted here and there while her husband corralled their kids and got them started on some arcade games. Together we did 18 holes of putt putt. We didn’t keep score.
Afterward she suggested we go get ice cream at this bookstore combo, and we all talked more. Her husband was REALLY quiet, but he opened up more over the treat. He also looked not much like his photos, but not in a catfish way - different features were animated in real life, I guess? Anyway, I didn’t get the feeling he was really into me at all, but he was friendly.
We went our separate ways, and SirGawain and I went back to the hotel. He was really being a little obnoxious and was talking about being naked when I returned from my date later, and maybe being in the hot tub awaiting me and ButterCup. I told him this wasn’t about having sex or his threesome tonight - I wanted to get to know ButterCup better so we could do that another time. This was something we had discussed a few times, so I was more than a little irritated.
However, when ButterCup messaged to say she was on her way, I had to pop out quick and go get her some flowers. Earlier in the morning I had seen some gorgeous sunflowers for $4 a bunch at a nearby grocery store, but when I returned there, there were only a few bundles left and they were terribly wilted and small. So instead I got her a mixed bouquet that I thought was pretty.
When I returned to the room, she was waiting with SirGawain, and again I was surprised by her appearance! She had a super cute dress on and her makeup was on point. I was really excited to go out with her! She acted really surprised by the flowers, saying she never got flowers on a date or even from her husband. So that made me happy, that I was able to do something special. Here’s a pic of me getting ready to go out with her:
I wish we had taken one of us together, after the fact, even if I couldn’t share it here. She was super cute! I was feeling attractive myself - my blue hair was still making me happy, and I loved my polka dots. I was all jazzed up about having some alone time to get to know each other.
Okay, so we had our dinner date, and we had good conversations. She said she appreciated that I did talk a lot (like, that’s my default!) and she said it took a lot of her anxiousness away. At times she was kind of a loud speaker, but it was endearing to me.
When we finished eating, we stopped and talked outside of the hotel for a bit. She is quitting smoking, so she finished 1/4 of a cigarette, making sure to keep it away from me completely. SirGawain had messaged that he had ordered DoorDash, so we waited for that to arrive without him knowing that’s what we were doing. Lol
While waiting, we talked a bunch about the threesome, and whether we were comfortable with it or not. She said she wanted to make a rule that everything below her waist was off limits, since she hadn’t been tested. She asked if I was okay and if my other partners would find that acceptable. I knew they would, and I thought it was a good work around. That said, I was worried that hooking up and involving SirGawain would fuck up our connection - I really wanted to get to know her more, and I didn’t want a group sex experience to interfere with that. She said she thought that it wouldn’t alter her feelings on anything and I said okay. I didn’t think it would really mess up mine, but it still made me a bit anxious.
We wore our swimsuits into the whirlpool tub, and shared a bottle of my favorite wine. We also each had a bottle of hard cider that she had wanted to get after our dinner. SirGawain ate his dinner while we chatted, and then he put on his own swimsuit and joined us briefly. He steered the conversation toward the housing market, credit scores and PMI. Like, the most unsexy things ever! I was like, wtf are we even discussing right now!
After he got in, ButterCup announced that she was overheating, with the alcohol and the hot water. Then the 15-minute timer went off, so we all climbed out and dried off.
She got dressed and said she had to go - it was waaaaay later than we thought (like midnight). I was topless, getting my pajamas on, and SirGawain was wrapped up in a towel. She apologized for having to run off, and then showed me her own boobs. Lol
SirGawain drove her home, and I was in the passenger seat. Initially I wasn’t going to go along but they both cajoled me. Her house was like 5 minutes from the hotel. She apologized profusely and we dropped her off.
After we got back to the hotel, she messaged and asked if maybe she could come back over before our check out time to have sex. She said she’d bring coffee. Lol I was like, uh, okay, but neither I nor SirGawain drink coffee!
