Harvey seemed very attracted to Selma and it seemed a mutual one. Betty had even overhear him telling her about a modeling job he might have for her. Selma's eyes had lit up at the prospects, and Betty got the feeling that when she and Doug faded out of the picture, they wouldn't be missed too much, at least by Harvey and Selma. She probably would miss Jean, but knew that she wouldn't go on seeing her. Jean, too, was taken with Selma, so everything had a way of fitting together.

Doug and Betty both were relieved when they finally left. They were beginning to think they'd never be alone together again. Harvey, Jean and Selma all seemed to be insatiable and never tired of new variations. Betty knew, that come the morning, the crowded events of this day would come back into her brain with perfect clarity, if she wanted to remember them. But she was doubtful that she did. But one thing she was grateful for, and that was that she had convinced herself that group sex wasn't for her. It definitely palled on her, and she was secretly relieved to hear that Doug felt the same way.

Gratefully, they headed for their bedroom as soon as their guests had gone and thankfully shut the door behind them.

"Well, what a day," Doug said, shaking his head. "I hope we don't have another like it!"

"I'm sure we won't… as long as you don't take on a new mistress!" Betty said mischievously.

"And the same goes for you," Doug laughed, gathering her in his arms. "From now on, I want a stay-at-home wife!"

"You mean, that I'm not to work anymore?" she said in mock alarm. Actually, she was relieved to be giving up modeling. It was fun and exciting, but very hard work, and she found that most of her earnings went on clothes, make-up and hairpieces. Not to mention cabs!

"That's just what I mean. From now on, the only modeling you're to do is for me!"

"All right, you're the boss!" Betty laughed happily, surrendering herself completely to her husband.
