Saturday 12.44 a.m.
It was almost a quarter to one when I finally got home and, parking my car on the drive, I crept into the house as quietly as I could.
Downstairs was in darkness so I staggered upstairs to bed, completely exhausted, only to find my husband still awake sitting up and waiting for me.
"Oh, you're still up." Seeing him there startled me.
"I wondered if you would make it home?"
"We were done and I didn't want to stay with him."
"Did you....?" He enquired cautiously.
Kicking my shoes away I peeled off my dress and simply discarded it on the bedroom floor as I answered wearily.
"Yes, he signed them. They're downstairs on the side in the kitchen."
"How was the...?"
I sat down on the duvet unclipping my stockings and rolling them down my legs "The sex, you mean?"
"Mmhhmm...."
"It was incredible. He fucked me twice and I lost count of how many times he made me cum." Flopping back onto the bed I closed my eyes and yawned as I slid my knickers off.
"And was he.... you know?"
"Big? Yes, he was... bloody huge." I turned onto my side and closed my eyes.
"So, what did the two of you do? Did you....?"
Chris clearly wanted to talk about my time with Darius but I was exhausted.
It had been a long day and all I wanted to do was sleep.
"Enjoy it?" I yawned, "Is that what you mean?"
"Mmhhmm... was it good."
"Remember I love you Chris, no one else." I rolled back and gazed at my husband for a moment, "Yes, sex with him was fantastic but that's all it was.... just meaningless sex!"
Saturday 9.48 a.m.
It was close to 10 o'clock and the sun was shining when I eventually awoke on the Saturday morning to stumble downstairs. My tousled hair clear evidence of the rampant sex I had enjoyed the previous evening.
Chris was already up and had the coffee brewed when I finally emerged from the bedroom.
"Good morning sleepyhead." He grinned at me, "Coffee?"
"Oh god yes please." I slumped wearily into a chair as he poured me a mug, "Did you find the contracts?"
"I certainly did." Chris beamed and joined me at the table, "You are an amazing wife."
I laughed "On that subject you do realise he knew I was married to you, don't you?"
"Ah!" my husband gave me an apologetic expression, "I kind of mentioned that after you left to come home and get ready."
Taking a mouthful off coffee I gave him a pained look and shook my head "You might have told me."
"Sorry." He apologised.
"It's ok, it really didn't matter."
"Don't forget the Harper's BBQ starts at 2 o'clock, Derek said not to be late." Chris quickly changed the subject.
I groaned quietly, "I forgot about that. Do we really have to go?"
"Yes, we have to go." he informed me quite bluntly, "They're our neighbours and we said we would."
"I know but it's always so awkward. I have to talk to their wives knowing that half of their husbands are fucking me."
Chris smiled, "That's as maybe but the Harper's live next door to us and we can't ignore them."
Sighing I resigned myself to an uncomfortable afternoon trying to be polite and as discrete as possible.
"It's not just Derek Harper though there will be a few others there as well." I mumbled disconsolately.
"You shouldn't be so popular amongst the older men around here then, should you?" Chris laughed and finished his drink before getting up to go and shower.
I pulled a face behind his back as he left and then blew on my hot coffee. He was right though I was getting to popular and sometimes there just weren't enough hours in the day.
Saturday 10.24 a.m.
I was just about to follow my husband upstairs to take a shower when my phone pinged,
I know it's Saturday but � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � any chance I can see you � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � today?

I'm really desperate.
Jason
Normally I don't work at week-ends, it's my time with my husband, and all my clients know this. So, Jason Whichell must have been really at the end of his tether, desperately wanting to see me, to send me that message.
Pausing for a few minutes I thought about what to do. Jason was a regular, like nearly all my customers and I wanted to help him if I could.
Making a quick decision I sent a text back to him
I can do a quick meeting � � � � � � � � � � � � � at your yard at 11.30 if � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � that helps? � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � �

Agreeing to meet him barely left me with an hour to get ready and get there so, without waiting for his reply, I dashed upstairs and showered quickly. Then I took a little time to put on my make-up; the false eyelashes, mascara and eyeshadow followed by foundation and lip gloss.
Saturday 11.01 a.m.
"What's going on?" my husband enquired as I rushed around.
