When Kate had come across the new store she had been looking for birthday presents for her husband Tom. She had already bought him a new shirt and a biography of one of his favourite footballers. However she didn't feel that was enough. They had a bit of a tradition of buying each other something a bit zany for each others birthdays and these socks seemed to fit the bill. She didn't for a moment think they would actually work but the story was worth a few laughs. And they looked warm, he could always wear them when lounging around on a winters day.
She went home and wrapped her purchases then hid them in a cupboard along with the bottle of Glenfiddich, Tom's favuorite whiskey she had found on special a month earlier. His birthday was in two days time. She then went to work on making him a birthday cake.
Come Friday morning. Kate provided breakfast in bed then presented him with her gifts. When he unwrapped the relatively plain looking socks she told him the story of where she had found them and allegedly what they would do. They end up cuddling which led to morning sex.
However it was a workday for both of them so after a shower they had to hurry to get to work on time. Tom's new socks remained on his bedside table.
That evening they were picked up by Tom’s brother Michael and his wife Kerry. They were taken out to dinner at a nice restaurant. Tom wore his new shirt and his new socks. Kate dressed up in a sexy grey dress. She hoped Tom might be up for a repeat of the mornings activities.
It was an enjoyable evening. Tom and Kate, not having to drive enjoyed more than a few drinks. When asked Tom told of his birthday gifts and Kate repeated the story of the magical socks and what they would allegedly do.
They were driven back home at 9pm and Kate invited Michael and Kerry inside to enjoy a slice of the cake she had cooked. They sang happy birthday, and Tom blew out the candles. Then Kate cut a slice for everyone.
While Michael was helping Kate clean up the plates, Kerry asked Tom “I’d like to see these magical socks Kate bought you”
"I'm wearing them"
