+++++++++++++++++
Every few weeks I travel with a female coworker to three-day site visits in distant cities. I am happily married, and she is recently divorced from a guy she caught cheating on her. Nancy isn't exactly a slut, but she does love good times, and a hotel in a far-away city is an opportunity for her to have some good times with new men. On most of our trips she gets laid by some random bar pick-up. Nancy loves her job.
On the other hand, I am a genuine straight-arrow and never cheat on my wife, Sally. Indeed, Nancy sometimes chides me for so often saying that I'm happily married. She too was once, or she thought she was, and I think sometimes she tires of hearing me praise my wife and our marriage, given her divorce. When I go on and on too long about my faithful marriage, I can see her slight eye-rolls. She just can't seem to bring herself to accept that some marriages really are made in Heaven.
It's hard to describe how it came to pass, but Nancy always had zero interest in me as road-cock. Zilch, nada. I've been with her once or twice late at night when she not found a guy and even though she was wearing beer goggles she left me alone. I am perfectly OK with being in her friend-zone. We like each other as office buddies and friends, nothing more.
I do enjoy her company when we're on the road together. Our work travel involves a lot of hotel breakfasts and dinners together. She's witty and friendly and easy to be with. Nancy also has a terrific body, which she works hard to maintain even when traveling. She tells me that hitting the hotel Exercise Room pays two benefits -- keeping her tight, and finding buff men. No one ever called me buff.
When we travel we normally have dinner together, fairly early, maybe in the hotel, and then go our separate ways until breakfast. More than once after a trip my wife has grilled me about what Nancy and I do with our evenings, but I've never been tempted to misbehave and I know for sure Nancy feels the same way about me.
One night, in Boston, a guy dining by himself at another table started flirting with Nancy despite the fact that she was obviously with me. She pointed him out to me, without being obvious about it, and said "That guy's no saint, Don. Notice his ring? He's married, too. Some guys still 'have it' even if they're married." I didn't take any offense, because I'm proud of my restraint.
He later ambushed her coming back from the bathroom, out of my sight, with a proposition. He wasn't what Nancy had in mind, so she blew him off, and our evening continued. I didn't see their short conversation near the restrooms, but I had noticed his attempts at eye-contact while we were all seated at dinner.
The next day at breakfast she told me that the guy had assumed we were a married couple and had asked her if her "husband let her play around". He loved wives with open marriages! It was convenient for her to let him think we were married -- easier to brush him off -- and she told him I was very jealous, and then left him.
We both had a good laugh. But then she floored me by asking if I would be willing to have some fun with her that night. I guess she noticed from my expression that I thought she was hitting on me, and she quickly explained her idea. She said there were lots of guys who really got aroused by the idea of banging some other guy's wife. She admitted she herself thought the idea of being a hot wife was kind of exciting, and that because she was, in fact single, being a slut wife was a thrill she couldn't really experience.
Our conversation wandered around for a bit. Remember, we're not an actual couple, and it is a least a little bit awkward to be talking about sexual stuff, even though we're not flirting with each other. I think I sounded a bit disapproving of the impulse, and she told me not to be "all goody-goody." She made at least one joke about how if she'd known her ex-husband had been cheating on her, she would have done it to him, too.
I said I would be willing to play-act as her husband at dinner as long as she didn't expect me to do anything my wife wouldn't approve of.
"Oh, no," she taunted me, "we wouldn't want to piss off the Ice Princess. Or test if you're really holier than everybody else."
Nancy proposed that we merely walk in at meals holding hands, no kissing or other touching. Maybe we laugh a little too hard at each other's jokes, I hold her chair for her, and -- her best idea -- that I call her my "wife" when speaking to the wait-staff, as in, "my wife will have the trout." She added, "Are you so pure that you won't even let me have a little dirty fun?"
So, that night we did all those things. I held her hand, which felt weird, pulled out her chair, etc. It was easier than I had feared to pretend to be affectionate to Nancy. I didn't find her attractive or anything, but other men treated her like she was pretty hot. She played her role to the hilt, smiling at everything I said, and leaning into me once or twice as we dined.
She soon caught some guy's eye and sent him those secret signals women have that say "hi there, big fella". (Not to say I've ever gotten such signals!) She asked me to go to the washroom for 10 minutes, to give her some space, and he approached her right away. Of course he did. Other men were drawn to Nancy most of the time.
Later, when I'd returned to our table, she went to the bathroom, and he made his big move. He caught her in the hallway on her way back to our table. She told him some story about how yes, now that he mentioned it, she loved cheating on her husband, and that her cuck had no say in who she slept with. She agreed to go upstairs to his room with him.
He was smirking smugly when she walked him back to our table. They stood next to me while I remained seated. Nancy said, barely loud enough for the server to overhear, "Darling, I'm going to sleep with Thomas here tonight. I'll see you in the morning. Don't play with yourself until I get back, you understand?"
Her catch-of-the-day was standing very close to my chair, and I couldn't help noticing the sizeable bulge in his trousers. I may have stared at him a moment too long, and I briefly imagined him in bed with "my wife." I don't think either of them noticed me looking at his erection, so close to my face. They turned and walked back to the elevators while I choked on my drink. He was so proud of himself, thinking he's bagged a hot wife, when in fact he had been her trophy. Some guys are so stupid.
