Author's Note: This is a story about a loving couple, husband and wife, who get very lost in their relationship -- neither knowing that the other has strayed.
Scott and Madeline were happily married 30-somethings, up until a week ago. Madeline asked her best friend, Shelly, to try hitting on Scott -- just to see if he would cheat on Madeline. She didn't realize Shelly coveted her husband, and had so for several years. Shelly happily took the opportunity to seduce Scott, easily ensnaring him with her womanly charms. Shelly then concocted a plan to drive a wedge between the couple, neither of whom are yet aware their marriage is unraveling.
In the last episode, Madeline confided in Shelly, telling her the sex just hadn't been that great with husband Scott the last two times. She was starting to get worried about that. Shelly suggested Madeline go see Shelly's psychotherapist and the two should get together for lunch afterwards, so Madeline could tell her how it went.
This series is about a cheating wife, a cheating husband, and a not-so-loyal best friend. If "cheating wives" who seemingly get away with it -- with no consequences -- angers you, please stop reading now! You'll have this tale.

As it turned out, Madeline was still late for her luncheon date with Shelly. Thirty minutes after her already extended appointment with Nicholas was supposed to end, the office assistant came knocking on the door a second time. This time, her knocks were louder and a little more insistent. Nicholas had been with this client for nearly two hours!
Nicholas opened the office door, just a sliver, and informed Katie he would be extending his consult with Mrs. Brown "just a little bit longer." His next appointment wasn't until 1:30pm, so he encouraged Katie to go take her lunch.
"Lock the front office door while you're out," he told her. "I'll see Mrs. Brown out and schedule her follow-up if you're not back by the time we're done."
On the other side of that door, Madeline had been doing her best to distract Nicholas. She was on her knees, sucking on his cock, trying to get her new therapist to shoot his load -- all while conversing with his office assistant. She hadn't been successful. Nicholas had remarkable restraint.
It was nearly a half hour later when Madeline finally tore herself away from Nicholas's office. Katie was still out to lunch. Madeline texted Shelly while strolling through the parking garage on the way to her car.
MADDY: I'm so sorry to miss our date, just leaving now.
SHELLY: WHAT?!? OMG! You're just leaving now?
MADDY: *Blushing Smiley Face*
MADDY: Too late for lunch? Raincheck?
SHELLY: No way! If you had a two hour session with Nicholas, I want to hear ALL about it!
SHELLY: The waiter is cute. I'm sure I'll find some way to entertain myself until you get here. See you in 15
MADDY: LOL. Yay! OMW!

The hostess escorted Madeline to the table. Shelly got up from her seat to give her "BFF" a warm, welcoming embrace. Shelly couldn't recall the last time she had seen Madeline so happy. She was radiant, positively glowing, and giddy with excitement.
Madeline sized Shelly up and down, telling her, "You look great! Where are you going, all dolled up?"
Shelly glanced at her reflection in the window. She was dressed to the nines. She wore a tight, grey pencil skirt and a short-sleeved purple top. The shirt had a ruffled placket down the middle, and Shelly had the top 4 buttons undone. This revealed a scandalous amount of cleavage. The shirt fit like a second skin, hugging every curve of her body. A wide two-tone belt, purple and gray, complimented the outfit, accenting Shelly's narrow waist.
"Nowhere special," Shelly lied. "I just like an excuse to put on makeup and get dressed up every now and then."
Shelly checked her watch. The truth was she had an appointment this afternoon with Madeline's husband. He didn't know if yet, but she was planning to surprise him at the office. Madeline's tardiness was an annoyance, but Shelly was still hopeful she could pull off the afternoon rendez-vous.
Shelly poured Madeline a glass of wine. The bottle of Riesling was half empty, and the pretty housewife felt a twinge of guilt. She shouldn't have left Shelly waiting on her at the restaurant, as she had. Friends need to stick together, and Shelly was her best friend. Her only friend, really.
"Sooooooo," Shelly said, excitedly, getting straight to dishing the dirt. "How did it go?"
Madeline smiled, looking down at her wine. She idly caressed the stem of the wine glass with her finger.
"How do you think it went?"
"I think he fucked your brains out on his couch."
"Bingo! First try." Both women laughed.
"Sooooo ... you do that with Nicholas every Friday?" Madeline asked.
"Talking with Nicholas is good for my psyche," Shelly said happily. "And his cock is good for my pussy."
"We scheduled my next appointment for Thursday," Madeline told her. "He originally suggested a Friday 10am time slot, but that would have been right before your weekly appointment. I didn't want to wear him out before you got there."
Madeline laughed again, then took a long sip from her wine. Shelly fumed angrily, but kept all emotion from her face. How dare Madeline think she could wear out any guy to a point that Shelly could not entice them further!
"You're so sweet," Shelly told her. "Gosh ... you were with him for two hours, really? I think I did maybe an hour and a half with him during my first consult. What the hell, Madeline?"
Shelly's voice was playful, and perhaps tinged with jealousy.
"I know. Crazy, right? We just lost track of time. But I'm afraid my situation now is worse, not better."
Shelly looked at her, eyebrows raised.
"I want more, Shelly. So much more!"
"Didn't Nicholas explain why that is?"
"Unh ... no? I didn't give him time for talking," Madeline grinned sheepishly. Shelly laughed, putting her hand on Madeline's.
"Honey, the sex with Nicholas is great, yes, but listen to me now -- it's just as important to talk with him BETWEEN the sex. That's where he'll help you grow."
"Oh?"
"Yes! Ok, I'll share what he told me during my first session because I think it's important. You're peaking sexually, Maddy. Guys peak in their early 20's, women in their 30's. Legit. They've done studies on this. Right now, your sexual appetite is roughly six times stronger than your husband's.
"It's completely normal for married couples to have less and less sex as their marriage goes on. You read about that all the time in those woman's magazines, right?"
Madeline nodded, a growing realization dawning across her facial features.
"But not you. You are coming into your prime. You can't get enough! The only way you're going to stay sane is if you keep finding ways to satisfy your craving. But to save your marriage, you need to find away to do it without exhausting and abusing your poor husband."
It was as if a lightbulb had been turned on over Madeline's head. Everything Shelly said made perfect sense! Now she wished she had let Nicholas talk more during their couch cuddling, rather than focusing on getting him hard again for the next go round. She would remember that for her next therapy session: talk with your therapist, don't just fuck him.
"Is that the way it is with you and Bob?" Madeline asked.
Shelly nodded, yes.
"Mostly. Bob travels a lot, so I don't have to worry about exhausting him as much as you do with Scott. I'm sure Bob welcomes his frequent business trips -- they are a reprieve away from me! I can be a bit intense in the bedroom."
Madeline laughed. "I've noticed!"
"Ha ha!! When Bob is home, like this week, I find other ways to keep my urges under control. My therapy sessions with Nicholas help. And I have a few other ... outlets, too."
Madeline was about to pry for details when Shelly glanced up excitedly.
"Oh, here comes Faras. He's our waiter. Cute, huh?"
Madeline followed Shelly's gaze to their approaching waiter. Faras was young, college-aged, both boyish and handsome. He had dark eyes and jet black hair. His skin was smooth, clean-shaven, and richly brown. Not overly dark, but certainly having the look of someone who spent long hours in the sun. His name and darker skin tone gave hint of his ethnicity: India, Madeline guessed.
His skin contrasted sharply with his crisp, starched-white uniform shirt. His black slacks were somewhat tight-fitting. They did precious little to hide the bulge tenting at the front of his crotch.
Madeline looked him over, then arched her eyebrows in Shelly's direction. Shelly was nodding, smiling. She had noticed, too.
"Here we are, ladies," the young man said, setting a wooden plate down between them. On it was an appetizer: a lightly toasted bread, with a creamy, gooey, melted cheese topping.
"Oh, and welcome Madeline."
A surprised look came over the brunette's face. How did he know her name? Faras caught her facial expression, and explained.
"Shelly and I became acquainted with each other while she was waiting for you," Shelly chuckled at these words, and a knowing look passed between them. "She told me a little about you. I'm very sorry to hear about your divorce, by the way --"
Now surprised turned to shock, and Madeline turned to her best friend, who was laughing behind her menu.
"-- but as they say in my country, there are plenty of fish in the sea."
"Faras is from Mumbai," Shelly introduced their waiter. "In India. His name means 'Good Gift'. He's a student her at Uni. He's studying chemistry!"
