This wonderful little piece of 'what if' was actually written by my husband, who normally doesn't stray too far from the sci-fi genre. It's an interesting take on some beloved childhood characters and I thought that it was worth sharing with the Literotica crowd. Enjoy!

Lucille worked hard all her life to get where she was, buying and selling real estate to put herself through college, getting her Masters degree and PhD in Psychology shortly after that. Now the practice that she spent years, struggling to establish a steady clientele, was all in jeopardy now because of her loser of a husband.
Loading her last suitcase into the back of her 2006 Lexus LX-470 8 passenger SUV, she wiped the tears from her eyes, replaying the incident over and over in her mind. She always suspected he was fooling around, that's why she took a shot at the reality show
Cheaters
. Their investigation caught his infidelity alright, but it wasn't with another woman ten years younger and with big boobs as she had expected. No, her husband was caught in bed with another man.
Being embarrassed and hurt didn't even begin to describe the feelings she was experiencing; anger, betrayal, inadequacy and disbelief were just a few of the emotions at the top of her list. The worst part was that since she was the bread winner in the family and they had no kids, she'd have to pay a hefty price to divorce him.
Her perfect life in upper class suburbia was over. She fired up the V-8 Five Speed Automatic and realized she didn't really have a place to go. She sat there a minute before flipping out her cell phone and calling her friend Patricia. When her friend's voicemail came on, Lucille hung up and her tongue protruded from her lips a little bit, they way it always did. Sighing and sniffling at the same time, she dialed her brother's number.
"Hi," she said when the voice on the other end of the phone answered. "I was wondering if I could come over and talk, maybe spend a few nights with you." Her brother accepted as she knew he would and she said, "Thanks. I should be there in an hour or two. Bye." She hung up and backed out of the driveway. Then she drove off down her posh street, tears running down her face.
On the freeway, she made good time and was at her brother's apartment in forty minutes. She grabbed her purse and, using her brother's spare key, unlocked the door and walked in. "Hey Li..." She stopped and stared at the scene she had just walked in on. Her brother was lying naked on top of his ex-wife and the two were obviously in the middle of intercourse. "Jesus Lucy. Ever hear of fucking knocking?" The ex-wife asked angrily.
"Oh, I'm sorry. I..." Speechless and repulsed at the same time, she backed out and closed the door. She felt ill and wanted to throw up. Lucille sat outside the apartment for a few minutes before her brother's ex-wife came out in a skimpy light blue dress, giving her a look of disgust before walking away.
"Hey," the familiar voice of her brother called out. "What's up?"
Lucille turned around to see her brother wearing nothing but a pair of worn down blue jeans. "I thought you two were divorced." She asked.
"We are," her brother flashed a devilish smile. "But I guess she just can't get over me since I took her cherry in the pumpkin patch."
"How's her blockhead brother?" she asked, trying to dig at him in some way.
"Same as always," he said, making a face. "Coming in?"
She got up and followed her brother inside his apartment, the aroma of sex still hung in the air. "At least somebody's getting some," she remarked dryly.
"Want a beer?" he offered as he padded to the kitchen.
