Angie had been married to Bill for 9 years now. It had been one of those quick engagement / marriage things in the 2nd year of college. You would think, for someone taking up the profession of accounting, that bill would be one of those kind of people that would do things slow and meticulous. That was true professionally, but when he had met Angie at a party one night, it seemed like the slow and sure way of doing things flew out the window.
At 5'7", long blonde hair, sparkling blue eyes, full lips, and a stunning figure that accented her 35 C breasts, Bill could not take his eyes off her. She seemed to be the object of attention of every guy at the party. With so many other guys to choose from, Bill didn't think he had a chance to even get a response to a simple hello from Angie. The normally shy Bill finally got up the nerve to approach her and ask if he could get her a drink. Angie hadn't really been facing Bill when he approached, and when she heard a voice ask if he could get her a drink, she thought the offer was from one of the much younger guys she really wasn't interested in.
As she whirled around, she started to say "No thank you, I . . . .", she caught sight of Bill's face and her eyes immediately locked onto his. For a moment, she was speechless. This wasn't the immature nerd she had been trying to ditch; this was someone who had a more mature look and manner. Bill's eyes were riveted to Angie's and it was like he never heard her initial rejection. After what seemed like minutes they both kind of shook themselves out of the 'instant attraction' trance and started talking. What started out as 'small talk', progressed quickly to revelations of mutual likes. By the end of the party, they were inseparable. Angie's apartment was not too far away but Bill felt it would be safer if he walked her home. The 'front door kiss' turned out to be one that had both of them panting. At that moment, Angie decided that Bill just might be a 'keeper' and wrote her phone number on the palm of his hand, with instructions to call her tomorrow.
That was the start of a whirlwind courtship that lasted barely 4 months, culminating in a quick wedding. The speedy wedding was more due to Bill's hormones and insecurity of not wanting to let Angie slip through his fingers. The wedding and honeymoon were modest in nature. They soon found that neither Bill's or Angie's apartment were adequate for the both of them, so they moved to a larger apartment in a better location. With Bill having just starting with the large accounting firm, they both realized that they could no longer afford to put Angie through college, at least right now. At the end of the semester, Angie dropped out and became a stay at home wife.
In the early years of their marriage, both Bill and Angie were pretty happy. Bill was beginning to slowly advance in the firm and his salary advanced with it. Angie made the effort to make Bill happy when he came home, with at good dinner and fantastic sex later in the evening. Even at the start, Angie seemed to notice that her sex drive was higher than Bill's. It seemed like she needed relief every day, whereas Bill was more of a 'once every other day' kind of guy. Angie resigned herself to fact that they had 'differences' and she would have to live with it.
As time went on, Bill received a couple of promotions as was now working on some of the bigger accounts. Along with the promotions, his salary was increased to match. The only problem was that, working on the bigger accounts, he would sometimes have to travel out of town to the satellite offices to work for as much as 2 weeks at a time. This kind of routine was expected of the accountants at Bill's promotion level. While Angie knew this was expected of Bill, the long times away from home meant she was in sexual turmoil for days on end. It was only relieved when Bill finally came home for the weekend and they could do some catch-up.
This had been the situation for the last few years and Angie was beginning to notice the trips away from home were beginning to show on Bill. Maybe it was exhaustion from long hours or maybe it was something Bill was doing with his free time away from home; whatever it was, Bill's sexual performance at home didn't seem quite what it used to be. Angie was at a loss for what to do. If Bill's problem was due to the long hours, she couldn't very well tell bill to quit, they were too used to living well. If it was that Angie just didn't seem as attractive to him as she once was, she wasn't quite sure how to revitalize things.
One of the things she thought she might try would be to re-arrange and redecorate the rooms. She figured that a change in the way things looked at home might shake Bill out of the ' same old, same old' when he would come home. It was during one of Bill's out of town trips that Angie had acquired some new furniture and was now browsing through some out of the way shops to find something to decorate the walls with. She thought that a nice painting over the bed might accent the new bed and side tables, but all she had seen so far were paintings of fruit and flowers. Just as she was about to walk out the door, when the clerk offered to show her some of the more unusual paintings. With that, he lead her into a more private room in the back of the store. What she saw both surprised and intrigued her.
There were numerous paintings on the wall. Every one of them resembled an old masters work of art; the kind where the subjects were mostly nude. Each painting had a compelling aspect to it. It wasn't until Angie had examined a number of them that it dawned on her what was so compelling about the painting. It was not that the subject was nude but that it seemed like they radiated extreme sexual energy. She looked in the corner of one of the paintings and saw that the artist's name was Michael T.
Angie had never heard of Michael T., and as she started to turn around to ask who the artist was, she found the owner of the shop standing right behind her. The owner had one of the artist's cards in his hand. He knew from past experience that customers who had seen these paintings would be curious to know more. The owner said that the artist worked by appointment only and to call him if you were interested. Angie took the card and soon exited the shop.
