"Table Talk" by Sandman (sandman@bitsmart.com). The author's stories
are archived at ftp://asstr.ml.org/pub/Authors/sandman/index.html).

Have you ever sat at a table in a restaurant with someone you love and
talked about how much fun that person might have fucking somebody else
in the room? Isn't it fun to get your lover all turned on, and don't
you sometimes get so turned on that you can't wait to get to a more
private place and rip each others clothes off - unless, of course, you
happen to be wearing no panties, and the restaurant has long
tablecloths, and your partner is able to remove his shoes and socks,
and....

That's sort of what happens in this story - except that the two
friends go their separate ways at the end of the evening with the
people they have been sizing up in the restaurant.
