For the first time since meeting him, Chuck finally met his eyes directly. “So you’re really okay with this? With me having sex with your wife, right in front of you?”
“Why wouldn’t I be?” Mick chuckled. “She’s going to let me fuck that beautiful piece of milk chocolate, don’t forget. And trust me, we’ve been at this for several years now. We’re both completely comfortable with our relationship. There is no jealousy, no doubts between us. I need you to understand that. So you can relax, enjoy yourself, knowing you don’t have to worry about me or my reactions.”
“Fair enough,” said Chuck, still not entirely sure. Then, “You’re not…um, interested in, well…”
Mick read his mind. “Doing anything with YOU? No, absolutely not. No gay stuff, my friend.”
“Not that there’s anything wrong with that,” they finished in unison. The fact that they’d both said it, and understood it as that famous quote from the classic Seinfeld episode, made them laugh, dissipating the tension between them.
