Joshua and Shae had been married six years and a month when they called it quits. In truth, it was actually more of Shae's decision.
Shae had been harboring guilty feelings about her lack of sex drive for most of their marriage. Joshua soldiered through and never complained. Shae felt bad, but didn't know how to help. Since she was young, Shae was raised with the idea that sex was sinful and shameful, and this notion continued to be deeply ingrained in her. It was more of an obligation. Despite her deep love for Joshua, Shae's unresolved issues prevented their relationship from flourishing.
After a few years, being intimate even once a month became a strain as the novelty of being newlyweds faded. Joshua thought it was his fault. He tried to spark their relationship by surprising Shae with romance gifts and date nights, but nothing seemed to excite her. Now, the couple's bond could be described as nothing more than a friendship.
Joshua never complained and always remained loving and optimistic. Shae had always found comfort in her husband's determination and love, as Joshua remained a faithful dotting husband year after year. He remained encouraging and emotionally available, and always hopeful his bride would return to him.
Everything changed one day when Shae joked about how repulsive it is for guys to watch porn. Joshua found it difficult to find the humor in her comment, and the truth was out.
Shae felt appalled by Joshua's choice to watch porn to cope with their nonexistent sex life. This wasn't the man she married. This was a pervert. It was too much for her to take. Shae packed a small bag and left for her mother's house that night.
Joshua felt devastated. He loved Shae with all his heart and was trying all he could to make the marriage work. Despite all their years together, Shae labeled him unfaithful, and their lines of communication were abruptly severed.
Joshua had always prided himself on his physical fitness, and now he poured all his energy into his workouts. Joshua would spend hours at the gym, pushing himself to the limits and channeling his emotions into each rep and set.
As he looked at his reflection in the gym mirrors, Joshua couldn't help but notice the streaks of gray flecking his mahogany hair. It seemed like he was just yesterday in the prime of his life, but now the signs of aging were beginning to show. However, Joshua refused to let that deter him. He was determined to use his gym time as an outlet for his anxiety and frustration, focusing on building his strength and stamina instead of his crumbling marriage. The intense physical exertion only provided a temporary escape from the heartbreak he felt.
For a long time, Shea had been frustrated with their relationship. If she was truly honest, guilt overwhelmed her more than anything. But the thought of Joshua fantasying about younger, more endowed women was too much for her to stomach.
In reality, Shea's stunning physique always turned heads wherever she went. Her perfectly proportioned curves accentuated her shapely ass. Shae's wavy amber lock and hazel eyes only added to her captivating and irresistible air. Despite understanding Joshua's unwavering dedication to her, Shea couldn't escape the overwhelming sensation of jealousy.
A little over a month had passed since the couple had gone their separate ways. Shae had been living with her parents until she could find a place of her own. Leaving Joshua depressed and alone in their apartment.
Joshua ended up ordering pizza nearly daily. It was difficult not to notice that the same pretty young pizza girl delivered several times in a row.
It didn't take long for some friendly banter to develop. The pizza girl was the first to break the ice. "Are you hungry or are you just starting to miss me?" She quipped. "You sure don't look like someone who orders this much pizza."
The gorgeous girl's flirtatious comments froze Joshua in place. He hadn't flirted with a pretty girl in ages, but the pizza girl's charm was irresistible. Her tight fitting polo caught his attention, but it was her piercing blue eyes that made his heart skip a beat. She had a subtle and youthful presence, accentuated by her porcelain skin and messy raven hair, that playfully escaped from under her ball cap.
The pizza girl noted Joshua's endearing shyness and giggled. "My name's Bree, by the way." She winked. "Thanks for the tip." As she turned and left, Joshua was in a daze, embarrassed and dumbfounded. Did he say anything? He swore to himself to do better next time.
A couple of days later, the pizza girl returned, and Joshua resolved to make up for the awkwardness of their last encounter. He answered the door with a ready smile. "I'm Joshua." He blurted out. Bree couldn't help but smile. Her plump red lips curled upwards as she fought to suppress her laughter.
"I know. It's on the receipt." A giggle escaped her lips as she couldn't resist finding Joshua hopelessly adorable and handsome. "You're really cute, you know?" Now it was Bree's turn to blurt out words without thinking. Embarrassed, her fair complexion flushed with a rosy shade of crimson.
Joshua's nerves were already shot, but Bree's awkward compliment eased the tension enough for him to take notice of her as more than just a pizza girl. His heart leapt ahead of his mind, and he surprised both of them. "You want to get a cup of coffee sometime?"
Butterfly's exploded in Bree's chest, practically answering yes for her. Bree's face lit up with a radiant smile as she eagerly passed her phone to Joshua, "I'm off tomorrow, Tiger." Bree answered with a wink, as Joshua franticly added his number to her contacts. "I'll find a quiet spot and text you round 10?"
"Sounds great," Joshua exclaimed with a wide grin, his heart pounding in his chest like a bass drum. He felt like a teenager again. Bree, not content with just words, leaned in closer, her soft touch sending a rush of warmth through Joshua's skin. Her vanilla scent lingered as she kissed his cheek, overwhelming him with her sweet and intoxicating aroma.
"See you then." Bree smiled back with a devilish grin. Joshua's head was swimming as he watched Bree's taut ass turn and bounce down the hall. Joshua felt like she was going to melt. The weight that had been dragging him down was beginning to ease, he felt alive again.
For their date, Bree picked a quaint little coffee shop on Main St, just around the corner from a trendy spa.
The coffee shop had a cozy atmosphere with exposed brick walls and vintage furniture. Arriving early, Joshua couldn't help but feel optimistic as he picked out a table in a cozy, sun-drenched corner. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee filled the air, tempting Joshua's senses even before he laid eyes on Bree.
As Bree walked in, her casual attire highlighted her natural beauty. Out of her uniform, Bree was ravishing. Her radiant, youthful smile brightened the room. Bree's flowing raven hair cascaded down her shoulders, accentuating her delicate features. Joshua struggled to remain focused on their conversation, his eyes involuntarily drifting towards her alluring, youthful, smooth cleavage.
Joshua, still lost in his thoughts, failed to notice as the waitress began taking their orders. Bree chuckled softly as Joshua slowly realized it was his turn to order. "Ummm, black yeah yeah."
"You are out of practice, aren't you?" Bree giggled endearingly as the waitress walked away.
Joshua blushed and shrugged. "Well, yeah, I have to be honest.... I've been well... I am kinda, uh, married." Joshua cringed. Why'd I have to be so honest? Joshua kicked himself. This was going to be a short date. "Separated, for a while actually, but yeah..." Joshua stammered, his hands trembling as he absentmindedly stirred his coffee, dreading Bree's inevitable reaction.
Bree was no where near shocked and really pleasantly surprised. This shed light on why Joshua was so endearing and allayed her fears. "I have to be honest, too." Bree smiled warmly as she reached across the table and cupped his hands. "I have a girlfriend."
Joshua could only stare. Bree's revelation left him bewildered and uncertain of what to think. Bree's cute giggle cut the confused tension. "It's more like a friend's with benefits thing. Don't worry."
This was heartening for Joshua to hear, and more than a little intriguing. Joshua's wife didn't even like to have sex with guys. Was this hot young girl that sensual and outgoing?
As if reading his mind, Bree leaned in and whispered. "I like cock."
Joshua's eyes widened at Bree's steamy words. He wasn't expecting her to be so open. The atmosphere at the table crackled with a palpable mix of sexual tension and anticipation. Joshua couldn't help but feel drawn to Bree's youthful, raw sensual energy.
With a mischievous smile, Bree continued, "But don't worry, Joshua. This doesn't have to complicate things. We can keep it casual, just enjoy each other's... company. No expectations."
The chemistry between them was undeniable. Joshua's mind raced. His mind kept drifting to Shea, but the irresistible allure of Bree was impossible to ignore. He couldn't deny that his own desires had been unfulfilled for some time.
Joshua took a deep breath, and his instincts took control. "You want to get some dinner later?"
"Only if it's at your place." Bree winked. She continued to smile as she stood and gathered her purse. "Thanks for the coffee. I'm off at 8, I'll text you, cutie."
Joshua stood up and Bree moved closer, their bodies melting into a warm and tender embrace. "Can't wait, tiger." Joshua stood up and Bree moved closer, their bodies melting into a warm and tender embrace. "Can't wait, tiger." Bree's tempting whisper lingered in his ear, sending a shiver down his spine.
Joshua's heart pounded as he watched Bree walk away, her hips swaying with a captivating grace. Her hand gently grazed his tenting pants as she passed, sending a jolt of desire through his body, leaving him longing for more. Joshua couldn't help but wonder if Bree's teasing gesture was intentional, a playful hint of what awaited them later. He felt like a love drunk teenager, with renewed anticipation. Joshua couldn't wait for the night ahead.

Shae's mom suggested a massage to relax. Shae had been separated from her husband for months, but the residual anxiety took its toll. "You need to relax!" Her mom instructed, handing her a gift card for the spa so she couldn't refuse. "I made you an appointment later this morning. Be there at 10."
Taurus Day Spa was on a quaint little corner downtown, right across the street from Shae's favorite coffee shop. The interior had the familiar appearance of a doctor's office, but with the added touch of lush tropical plants and the soothing scent of coconut in the air.
