Jessica sat alone once again Saturday evening, feeling lonely and miserable. Her husband had started working a job where he stayed out of state for months at a time. She had tried traveling with him, but it was just not her preferred lifestyle. It was fine for the hour or two at night when Charles was off work and would actually interact with her (sometimes). Even during that time, he was often talking on the phone or catching up on planning and record-keeping on his computer. He usually worked seven days a week, so she hardly saw him, and the rest of the time she tried to occupy herself. This scenario had led to several arguments, and ultimately resulted in her going back home. They were definitely still married, but during this current work situation, they would be living apart most of the time. She decided to make the most of her situation and stop feeling sorry for herself.
Jessica was able to resume her part-time job once she moved back to their home in the Midwest. She was a teacher at a local private school. The pay was not great, but it gave her some extra spending money. Charles' income more than covered their expenses, but Jessica liked having a little of her own money to spend.
Since her job did not keep her busy for more than three or four hours a day, Jessica had plenty of time left to herself. She loved to shop for clothes and things for the house, but there is only so much of that you can do. She liked to look at social media and admire other people's lives. So many ladies looked like they had everything they could ever want: their perfect lives, each with a strong but sensitive husband and 2.3 cute, well-adjusted children. She envied their lives, though her practical side knew that this was simply what they choose to show on Facebook or Instagram.
Jessica longed for deep connection that, if she was truly honest, she never shared with Charles. She did have her best friend, Jenna, who lived in the next town over from hers. Jenna invited Jessica to stay with them for as long as she wanted to or until Charles started being home more.
Jenna was one of those who seemed to have it all together though. She had an incredible husband who obviously adored her. They had three cute, smart kids, and both parents had jobs that allowed plenty of time together at home. They ate home-cooked dinner together at home almost every night. Jessica loved her friend dearly, but she had to admit that she envied her life, and especially her marriage. Despite some minor envy, she decided to move in with Jenna and Adam for a while.
Jenna had started dating Adam during college. When she first brought him back to meet her parents on a holiday break, Jessica was there too on break from a different college. She was instantly attracted to her friend's new boyfriend. Not only was Adam good-looking, but he was truly kind, considerate, and a lot of fun to be around. He could be very goofy and silly, yet still remained rather responsible and down-to-earth.
Many guys that Jessica had met that had great personalities were dorky or wimpy looking. That was not true for Adam in the least. He was about six feet tall with a trim, athletic frame. He had wavy red hair, blue eyes and a nearly constant smile on his face. She could tell he worked out, but he had mostly leaner muscles, like the ones earned through hard work more than lifting weights. Later she found out that he grew up on a farm, which accounted for his musculature. One of Adam's best physical features was definitely his butt, which was firm and shapely.
Jessica had liked Adam from the start and decided that he was a good fit for her friend. She couldn't help but think at the same time that he might just be a good fit for her. She loved her friend too much too get in between them, and besides Jenna was prettier than her (at least in Jessica's mind), meaning it might be hard to take Adam away from her even if she tried. Jessica had decided during that first weekend when she met Adam that she would not get between her friend and Adam, but she would not shy completely away from him either. She would subtly and carefully flirt with him and not be afraid of spending time with him. Even now that they were both married to different people, she couldn't help but flirt with him a little bit.
When they were both looking at something on her phone, she would sit right up against him to show him the screen. Then after they were done looking, she would not move away immediately, instead lingering with her leg and side pressed against his.
Normally when she needed to bend over to pick something up from the floor, she was mindful to hold the top of her shirt closed. When it was only Adam around, she purposely let her neckline drop down to give him a quick flash of her cleavage. Adam was normally too much of a gentleman, but she had caught him stealing quick glances occasionally.
Jessica enjoyed trying on clothes, and she got an extra thrill trying on clothes when Adam was in the next room. She secretly hoped he would accidentally walk in on her partially or completely undressed. This possibility became more likely when she decided to temporarily move in with them while her husband was always out of town.
Jessica had recently begun sleeping without a bra. She told Jenna that it was healthier and more comfortable, but these were actually only secondary reasons. Her main motivation was to direct Adam's gaze to her chest when she was in her pajamas. Whenever it was colder in the house, she knew her nipples would get hard and be visible through the thin t-shirts and tank tops she usually wore.
Jessica also liked to work in conversations about her body, like asking if her waist was getting larger. The conversation would prompt her to lift up her shirt to show her slim waist, though when Adam was around, she tended to lift her shirt up all the way to the bottom of her bra, sneakily showing him some extra skin. She might ask if her legs seemed smooth after she waxed them, causing everyone present to caress her legs (which she always kept smooth). She tended to pull her pants or shorts up higher than was actually necessary, presenting her thigh for Adam to touch rather than her calf or knee.
Jessica had noticed that Adam was not especially modest or shy about his body. When they talked about body-related topics, he was more than willing to show his abs, chest, legs, or whatever the subject might require. Jenna was normally very modest, so she would hardly ever bare any skin during these conversations.
Jenna joked sometimes about how Adam would run around naked all of the time if it was socially acceptable. She told how he would take off his clothes in the laundry room when it was time for a shower and then walk naked down the hall and through the bedroom, passing by at least three windows before reaching the shower.
Jessica had to admit that she found this exciting. It seemed like there might be an opportunity there for her to "accidentally" see Adam in the buff. Now that she was staying with them most of the time, she was sure to find a way to get in the right place at the right time. She doubted Adam would be so brazen as to walk by naked if he knew she was in the master bedroom. She had to be in the living room until he stepped into the laundry room to undress and then sneak into the master bedroom to watch and wait.
A few days after making this plan, she found just the right opportunity. Jenna was upstairs working on some organization project, and Adam had just come inside from an evening run. Jessica sat in the living room, pretending to be engrossed with her phone. Once she saw Adam go into the laundry room, she hustled down the hall and into the master bedroom. She sat down on the bed, still pretending to look at her phone, though her peripheral vision was alert for movement.
Adam walked into the bedroom completely nude and picked out clean underwear and pajamas without really looking around. When he came out of the closet with his pajamas, he was facing right toward Jessica. He saw her there on his bed and froze.
Jessica had been looking at him with mostly her peripheral vision, but when he stopped, she looked up. She pretended surprise while looking his body up and down appreciatively. While he was frozen with surprise, she got a great view of his toned body. She could see his flaccid penis hanging down between his legs. She didn't have much experience, but his looked larger than Charles' when not erect, definitely thicker and maybe slightly longer. Actually, she felt like Adam's penis might have grown a little bit larger as he noticed her looking at him. Was he excited by showing himself to her? Would she feel excited if she was naked in front of him?
Adam stayed frozen in place for about ten seconds, then he blushed and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't know you were in here. If you're looking for Jenna, I think she is upstairs. I'm headed to the shower now."
As he turned and walked away, Jessica got a great view of his firm butt. It looked even better naked than clothed. She said, "I'm sorry, I actually came in here to look for something in Jenna's closet and got distracted by a notification on my phone. I hope I didn't embarrass you too much."
Jessica then walked back to the living room before Jenna came downstairs and questioned why she was in the bedroom. She decided then that she would orchestrate some innocent-seeming or "accidental" way that Adam would see her naked. She wanted to see if it gave her a thrill like she thought it might.
