Jack and Pandora.
This story is, hopefully, the first in a series. It is about two people that share very similar philisophies on sex and its importance in relationships but are hamstrung by the fact that they are not a couple. They are married but not to each other and their spouses don't share those same philosophies. These stories follow their journey.

The beginning.
Jack had been living overseas for a year and was now returning home. His friend Bob and his fiancee Pandora had said that he could have a room at their house until he got back on his feet. He was grateful for the room as it allowed him time to get settled without the stress of finding a place to live.
It was a really easy going house, the three of them got along very well and there were always other friends around for parties and get togethers.
Jack and Pandora had only met each other once and that was when he had left to go overseas so they didn't really know each other at all before this. As they got to know each other they realised that they were very much kindred spirits.
They very quickly developed a very strong and close friendship but it was never in any way sexual, although as time went by there was speculation by their friends that in fact they were playing around it wasn't the case. Pandora was still very much in love with Bob and Jack respected them both so much that he never tried to be more than her friend.
They were able to share anything with each other and they often spent hours telling each other about their lives and past loves. In fact after a few wines Pandora was more than happy to share a little more than she should at times. Poor Jack went to bed one night with a raging hard on after she had shared a story about some of her experiences with a previous partner and hot wax...
Jack was a bit of a flirt and he did enjoy walking around the house in nothing but his white boxer shorts and he enjoyed the occasional comment from Pandora when he did.
Once he had decided to get into bicycle riding for fitness and decided to shave his legs and when Pandora saw this she playfully asked him what else was shaved. They had both had a few drinks and Bob was away but he managed to control himself and not tell, or show her that he had in fact shaved everything from his chin down.
The temptation was so hard to resist as by this time he had a crush on her but didn't want to make things awkward between them all.
In time Bob and Pandora moved interstate and Jack found love with a lovely woman. They all remained great friends although being half a continent apart made it hard to catch up in person all that often.
A few years later Bob and Pandora were coming to a wedding and Jack and his wife were also invited. They arranged to share a flat together for the weekend and have a great catch up. By this time both couples had children and their lives seemed to be perfect but in truth, just below the surface there was tension building.
Jack and his wife had had issues conceiving their second child and that had placed pressure on their marriage and Pandora was getting frustrated with Bob's lack of intimacy.
They all met up at in the city and when Jack hugged Pandora he couldn't believe how great it felt to hold her again. They used to often sit on the couch as flatmates and snuggle together and it never felt anything more than platonic but to Jack this was different. He had missed her contact..
They all spent the day doing some last minute shopping for the wedding and then headed off to the flat together. After getting their bags into their rooms they decided to organise food and drinks. It was a great night of reminiscing and after many drinks and a couple of movies Bob and Elizabeth decided to go to bed, leaving Jack and Pandora watching the end of the movie.
They were sitting at the opposite ends of the couch and Jack reached out and put his arm around Pandora's shoulders. She immediately moved over and snuggled into him. Jack sighed and said that he missed this and she agreed.
Jack's hand started to gently rub Pandora's shoulder and she murmured that she liked that.
His hand slid down off her shoulder and onto her chest. Pandora's breathing quickened as Jack slowly and softly stroked her skin. His hand moved closer to her breast and Pandora stopped him and moved it back onto her shoulder.
Jack continued the soft stroking and his hand again made it's way down her chest and again she moved it back but Jack could feel that her breathing was getting deeper and her heart was beating faster so he did the same thing again.
This time when his hand got to her breast she didn't stop him so he slid his hand under her bra and touched her nipple for the first time.
Pandora moaned, sat up and kissed him hard. They were like two teenage kids for a few moments as they kissed each other hard, their hands exploring each other through their clothes.
Pandora was the first to pull back and reminded Jack that their spouses were 10 feet away in their rooms and they couldn't do this. Jack was a little drunk and full of lust and didn't want it to end but knew that she was right. They couldn't do this. They stood up to head off to their bedrooms and Jack couldn't resist one more kiss. He pulled her to him and they started kissing again and this time Jack's hands found their way to Pandora's pants and she undid the belt and button and started to unzip her.
"No!" said Pandora.
