This is a follow up to kcfirst's story "Faithful". It is from the point of view of Molly and it continues on past the end of kcfirst's story. Thanks out to kcfirst for allowing us to take a crack at his story. I have tried to stay true to his story with just a few changes.
***
My elation at my boss John getting a big promotion quickly turned to despair. John's big promotion would take him to England, far from me. I ran to the bathroom and cried like a baby. John was my boss, but I was in love with him and I believed he loved me.
Yes, we were in love and married, but not to each other. While I was in love with John, I was also in love with my husband Tom. I never intended to fall in love with John but somehow it happened. After working with John on a few projects he invited me to be his administrative assistant.
John is a good-looking man and I was not oblivious to his looks when we started working closely. John had the charisma to command a room when he walked in. He had a way of making you feel special when his attention was on you. At ten years older than me, John maturity and presence that appealed to me. Working side by side we developed a closeness. He would never fail to compliment me on how I was dressed and looked, not in a sexual way at first. Somewhere along the way, our relationship became very personal. We talked about personal things that I wouldn't with my husband including our sex life.
My husband Tom was a very different kind of person. He doesn't have John pretty boy looks, more of what I would call rugged good looks. He is a wonderful husband and has never failed to please me in bed. I guess it was the difference that attracted me to John.
John's touches on my arms and shoulders lasted longer and longer. Handshakes between us turned to hugs. The first time his hand landed on my thigh we both felt the sexual tension. I was never going to cheat on Tom but I had to admit to myself that I had feelings for John and he had feelings for me.
As his administrative assistant, I accompanied him on most of his trips. John never overtly pressured but we both felt the attraction. I still remember the first time we danced on a trip. We went to a club with a bigger group. The others had all gone back to their rooms when John asked me to dance to what he said was his favorite song. It was a fast song so I was okay with it. When that song stopped, a slow song came on. Halfway through the song, I melted into his arms. It was wonderful to be in his arms.
John is built very similar to Tom; Tom is a little more muscular and younger. We dance every slow song that night till it was closing time. When they announced last call, John asked me back to his room for a nightcap. I was very tempted. I will admit to having moist excitement between my legs. I knew if I went to his room we would end up in bed. I told him no, I couldn't do that to Tom.
John insisted on walking me to my room. The kiss we shared at my door almost convinced me to let him in. My marriage meant too much to me to cheat on Tom. I rationalized that a kiss and some dancing was not physically cheating because I stopped John at sex. I was admitting to myself that I did have feelings for John.
I was ashamed of myself that night as I fingered myself to a wonderful orgasm. I imagined it was John making love to me while my fingers went to work. I had always prided myself on being a moral person. That pride would not allow me to betray my husband as much as I wanted to give in to my feelings for John.
The Monday morning after that trip I walked into John's office and told him we needed to talk. "John, we need to talk about this last trip. You know I care deeply for you but we are both married. I will not cheat on my husband and will not be the other woman to your wife Gail."
"Molly, I can see it in your eyes. You love me as much as I love you. We could express our love and our spouses would never know. I saw it in your eyes after we danced. You wanted me to make love to you."
I quickly cut him off, "John, I will admit it. I wanted to make love to you that night. I just can't, I won't ruin both our marriages. Please respect that." I turned and walked out of his office.
Our relationship continued that way. While on trips we would dine together and most times dance. The slow dances were our favorite. It was the closest we came to making love. John would grind against me and I would grind back. Each time he would try to convince me to come to his room. I would decline and share a pleasant kiss at my door. Back in my room, my fingers would be John's cock making sweet love to me.
I tried hard to hide my feelings for John from my husband but he suspected something was going on. He asked several times if something was going on. I told him every time that there was nothing between us. We were work colleagues and good friends. There were several company functions that John and I danced. Each time I told John it wasn't a good idea to dance in front of our spouses but he insisted.
I could tell from my interactions with John's wife Gail that she suspected something was going on between us. She confirmed her beliefs when she invited us out to dinner with them. Gail cornered me in the bathroom.
"Look Molly, I can tell you and my husband have feelings for each other."
I quickly cut her off. "Mrs. Decker, there is nothing going on between us."
"No, you mean there is no sex between you two. There is definitely something going on. He is obsessed with you. You remember that last company party when you danced so close?" I nodded. "He called out your name when he was fucking me that night. He said there is nothing going on but I knew before that he is in love with you. You just haven't given in yet. I can see it in your eyes, you will."
I confessed that I had feelings for her husband but I was not going to cheat on my husband. "Please, please don't say anything to my husband", I begged her. She agreed if I promised not to cross the sex line. That was six months ago. If I'm honest with myself I have to believe if I hadn't made that promise to Gail I probably would have succumbed to John's advances.
A week after the announcement of John's I was summoned to John's office. I was confused because I knew John was at a meeting off-site. The confusion turned to surprise as I was greeted by John's wife motioning me into the office. Gail closed the door behind me and sat in her husband's chair.
"As you know, we are moving to England with John's promotion. My agreement to John's accepting the position was that you are not going with him. I'm done playing second to his love for you."
"Gail, I kept my agreement with you. I've told him no each time he has proposed sex."
"I know you have. I confronted John about his feelings for you. John has admitted his love for you and admitted to trying to get in your pants. He says you have resisted his sexual advances. I think you denying him has made him want you even more. You are the forbidden fruit he craves. Do you realize that most of the company believes that you two are fucking."
