From the Author: My apologies to all my readers who have loyally followed me these past 9 years. This Part 3 has been delayed way beyond normal expectations. I have a lot going on in my personal life at present and it has curtailed my writing so this story could be my last posting to Literotica for some time. There will still be one more part of this story and it will be posted within a week of this one.

This story is basically about the swingers' lifestyle in suburbia. Swinging can be considered infidelity in a marriage. If that does not appeal to you or offends your moral standards, don't waste your time reading on. But if so, what are you doing on Literotica? To those that are likely to enjoy it, here is the synopsis so far.
Ben and Susan, married 21 years, have relocated from their city roots to a smaller town way across the country. The two have just attended their first ever key party with the requisite partner swapping that accompanies that concept and now they are discussing this new development in their lives over late morning coffee. But Susan is about to spring some unexpected additional information.
Ben's Story Continues
"So it seems like your first sex outside of our marriage was a big success. There'll be no stopping you now."
"Umm!" she kind of agreed but I watched her eyes. She appeared to be distracted and I tried to work out where her mind was ... could there be something else stemming from my last statement? I went over what I had said to her again,
'So it seems like your first sex outside of our marriage was a big success. There'll be no stopping you now.'
Was she contemplating trying to do it more often, but then the revelation hit me. Was it my words,
'your first sex outside of our marriage?'
Susan, tell me what you're thinking right now?"
"What do you mean Ben?"
"I can see your mind reflecting on something and I want to know what it is, what are you thinking about?"
"No Ben, you don't want to know, these thoughts are private."
"Yes I do, I really do, come on, out with it."
"Ben, can you handle the truth?
"I'd rather the truth than a string of lies."
That must have pricked her conscience.
"Ok, you asked for it. Going to bed with Brad last night was not the first time I had sex with another man since we've been married."
"Really, you better tell me more then."
"Are you sure?"
"Of course I'm sure, I want honesty."
"You're right of course, we should have honesty, but I don't want to hurt you."
"I have to take that chance Susan."
"It was only recently and there has only been the one ... one man I mean, not just one time."
"Umm, it sounds like you better reveal all. Although I'm beginning to think that I'm not going to like this."
"Before I tell you who and why and when, I'll just say this. My wish to extricate myself from this relationship, from this man, was the main reason that I pushed for us to relocate here to this town. I know you wondered why I was so keen for us to leave all our friends and family behind and come here. Well in the end, I knew that if we stayed in that city I would continue to have this affair, to see this man. It had become that necessary in my life."
"What brought this on?"
"I've already told you that our marriage has become so routine, so mind numbingly boring. And then when you suggested that our finances were so good that I didn't need to work anymore, and our kids didn't need us anymore. My God Ben, I was at home all day and I was going up the wall after a life of constant work and running the kids around and all that sort of stuff."
"So you felt you needed to take a lover?"
"No, I didn't know what I wanted. I didn't plan it, it just happened and suddenly I was in so deep and the only way I could see to break the habit of fucking this man was to get us out of town and away from the temptation of him."
"Seems a pretty drastic remedy."
"I didn't want to be unfaithful, I didn't want to cheat on you, but he was there and I enjoyed it and I knew I wouldn't stop - couldn't stop - while we lived there and he continued to come to the house. It was so convenient."
"Ok, so who was this character?"
"Terry!"
"Who, who's Terry? Do I know him?"
"Yes, damn it, you sure do know him. Terry, the guy who mowed our lawns and cleaned the pool."
"Terry, oh shit, that Terry. Why him?"
"Because he was there and I was bored, simple as that."
"He's not exactly the image of a pool guy. When one thinks of a pool guy it conjures up some hunky and handsome 20-something with a good tan and super abs. But Terry, I think I only met him the once, but I recall him as being about my age, would that be right?"
"He's actually older than us Ben. He's 48."
"Not the image I'd expect, that is if I'd ever even considered you might have an affair. The possibility of that never ever occurred to me but after the way you behaved last night at the party when you threw yourself so enthusiastically into that key game, I am now seeing you in a new light. And now it sounds like this new you I am seeing isn't exactly new, I guess you'd better tell me about it. How it started, how often and why it needed such drastic action as for me to change jobs and us to leave town for you to end it."
"If you're really sure you want to hear about it."
"You have to now ... you can't admit to having an affair and then leave that hanging."
"Ok then! But tell me if it gets too painful and I'll stop, alright?"
"Yes ok!"
"I remember the start of it so vividly, like it was only yesterday. It was a really hot day; I think it might have even been the hottest last summer. Terry came by on his regular summer schedule, once a week for the pool cleaning and every other week he would do the lawns too. This particular Wednesday was on the fortnight when he did both. I was out by the pool in my bikini."
"I guess that could have been tempting for him for a start, you still look really good in a bikini."
"Thanks Ben, see that helps ... if you had made comments like that more often, complimented me about my body and how it still attracts you ... well, I may not have been feeling so unloved. Anyway, he was out there mowing the lawns and working up a hell of a sweat. When he finished them, he came over to me, I was on the sun lounge by the pool. His face was red as ... he was sweating so much that his tee-shirt was sticking to his chest and back and arms. I was really worried that he might have worked himself toward a heart attack. I suggested he take a dip in the pool but he declined, telling me he had a full book of appointments for the day and as appealing as the water looked, he might never leave if he went in. So instead I offered him an iced lemonade and he willingly accepted that. I had a jug on the table beside my sun lounge and I poured it into my glass and he drank from that. When he'd downed it, some of the red went out of his face and I felt a little better about his condition."
"What was he wearing?"
"Just shorts and a tee."
"Were his shorts sticking to his body with sweat the way his tee was?"
"A bit, but not as much."
"So it wasn't like you were getting turned on by seeing the shape or outline of his cock in his shorts?"
"Ben, who's telling this story, don't put words in my mouth?"
