Infestation
CHAPTER 1
It was just a simple girls' night out at the beginning. The women who worked at Winchester Logistics, those who worked in the warehouse anyway, got paid on the last Friday of the month. They agreed that was the best opportunity to get together. Hilary really enjoyed letting her hair down with her friends. Most of them were married like her, and this was a chance for some lively fun, away from their humdrum work. Hilary's husband Paddy didn't mind at all, and the other husbands didn't seem to care what their wives got up to, as long as dinner was on the table when they got home.
At work, Hilary felt slightly superior to her workmates, though she tried not to show it. They were all working class women doing a boring repetetive job because they needed the money. But her Paddy was well off and Hilary did not meed to work. She thought being a stay-at-home wife would be fun, but soon got bored and taken a job well below her capabilities. She loved the interaction with women who came from the background she had once known. And when they exchanged tales about what they'd got up to on their holidays in Ibiza and Torremolinos, she laughed at their antics but didn't really join in. She and Paddy were more likely to holiday in Singapore and Bali
The girls had tried most of the town's watering holes and eventually setlled on the Tollgate Hotel. It tried to keep its guests and the locals from straying all over the town by providing music and dancing every Friday and Saturday night. The ballroom had plenty of dimly lit corners and their husbands never went there. So it was the perfect place to cut loose without anyone paying attention. For Hilary it was a perfect location. Not too far for most of the girls to travel, but a fairly long taxi ride for her.
That first night Hilary had a wonderful time. She soon let her down with the other girls and started flirting. Watching them, especially the married ones; dancing and getting groped turned her on. She drank five glasses of wine, but only paid for one. And she had dances with four different men, getting her arse squeezed by three of them and wet kisses from two. At least one married member of their gang slipped upstairs for an hour with a stranger. Two more spent time in the carpark. Later they all agreed any indiscretions would never be discussed outside their girls'night out. And they would definitely be on the pull next month.
When Hilary got home she felt sexy and rejuvenated and Paddy was happy she'd had a good time. She had been a wild one when she was at secretarial college, soon finding she had a submissive side. She had a lot of boyfriends and let them do whatever they wanted with her. But one day she overheard two classmates talking about her. She was getting a reputation. That had been when Hilary decided to clean up her act. She met Paddy and he was her saviour; marriage would calm her down. They got wed, and honeymooned in Hawaai. Her wild hedonistic days were behind her.
CHAPTER 2
There were only two of these houses left on the upmarket side of town. They were reputed to be the oldest in the county. They were not actually 'listed' or old enough to have earned preservation orders, but they did cause the occasional pedestrian to stop and admire. They were semi-detached and boasted the numbers 1 and 2 Bristol Road. Mr Barnes lived in number 2; he had retired. Paddy and Hilary were in number 1 which had been passed down from Paddy's parents. He liked the place, despite the creaks and draughts.
Paddy ran his own business, Paddy's Plans, working from home. He designed warehouses, domestic extensions and carparks, and word of mouth was bringing him in a steady stream of commissions. His computer aided drawings were not quite to architect standard. But they were more than good enough for local planning permissions.
CHAPTER 3
The following month Hilary was in the arms of a handsome man; tall, with black hair greying at the temples. His name was Arthur and he had slow danced with her last month and got familiar with her buttocks and lips. She'd been hoping he would be there again. The song was loud and he leaned in close to her ear.
"I really enjoy your company Hilary. Could we sit somewhere quiet for a minute, so we can talk properly?"
After eighteen years of marriage, Hilary was feeling like her old wild self again. Sex with Paddy had always been fulfilling, if not quite frequent enough. But the low light levels, the naughty co-workers, and getting her arse fondled and her ear kissed, was making her horny. She couldn't believe how her nipples and clitoris were crying out for attention. They hadn't responded like this since the first time Paddy slid his hand up her dress, and that was two decades ago. Paddy made love to her, but what she wanted now was a good fucking from a stranger.
Arthur's hands were gripping her buttocks harder now -- almost pinching her. Hilary shivered; the truth was she would prefer to keep talking to him right here, with his erection prodding into her lower belly.
"OK, let's find a quieter table." she agreed reluctantly.
They moved to a darker spot away from the stage. Without asking what Hilary would like, he went for more drinks. When he returned, he shuffled his chair round next to hers
"You said you work for Winchester Logistics?"
"Yes," she replied, "the girls I'm with tonight have jobs in their warehouse, like me."
That sounded a bit low-life, but Hilary didn't care; she was feeling low-life. Still, she didn't want to come across as a typical mamual worker though, so she added:
"I did go to secretarial college but warehouse work was all I could find round here."
"Well I'm director of sales at Empire Holdings, on the other side of town. I think a woman with your class should be a PA. And it just so happens I'm looking for one"
Hilary was flattered. She knew men found her attractive but had never been described as classy before. If Arthur really did have a job for her, Hilary would be off like a shot. She would miss her friends of course, but that's what this girls' night out was for. She wished she'd worn something more alluring. Sitting next to a powerful man, she could feel a tingling sensation spreading from her breasts to her groin. Handsome, sexy, possibly with a better job for her; how could she resist?
"That's sweet of you to say so Arthur. Tell me more."
They chatted for another tweny minutes and he continued to flatter her. He soon had one arm draped across the back of her chair. Occasionally he touched her shoulder.
"Well, it's been lovely talking to you Arthur ..."
He interrupted her.
"Next time we talk we should get a room and talk about the PA position. We could take a bottle of wine up with us."
Hilary wasn't sure what to say. On the one hand he was bold to presume she would agree; there was no doubt he had sex on his mind. But on the other hand, sex was what she wanted too. This handsome man clearly desired her, and she him. No need to make it too easy for him though.
