Peter sat at his new desk in his new office in his new job.
Everything there was alien to him but he was intent on making a good impression.
So, why couldn't he concentrate?
He knew why. There was something, or more to the point, someone, on his mind. Why, oh why, couldn't he get Claire out of his head?
He was happily married to someone else and everything to do with Claire had come as a shock.
They had known each other for years and he'd always had an idle fancy for her. But that had been as far as it went.
Peter forced his brain back to where he was and tried to focus on work. He was a journalist, a news editor, and he saw this job as a stepping stone. He only wanted to be here a year so really needed to get the editorial team in shape sharpish to enable him to move on to bigger and better things. And to do that, he needed to keep his mind on his work.
Peter was 33. He had been married for five years to a wonderful woman and he had never been bored. He wasn't bored in the marriage now and he didn't want it to be over, but he also wanted Claire.
Claire and Peter used to be colleagues. They had always flirted and months ago they had shared a drunken kiss. The next day, wracked with guilt, Peter had confessed to his wife. Contrite and sorry, he had put all his effort into making his wife know she was his number one. Whenever Claire had come out socially, he had felt awkward and avoided talking to her.
Eventually, Claire had stopped coming out and he had felt relieved.
But, a few weeks ago, Claire went to a party at his marital home. Peter was drunk and when he looked at her he realised he still fancied her. All night he fought with himself and tried to avoid looking at her or talking to her. In the end, he couldn't help himself and sat next to her.
"I really fancy you," he had confessed. And that was the start of the affair.
Now, he found his thoughts occupied with Claire and the endless possibilities of what they could do together.
He thought about her body, which he had first seen naked not long after his confession. She was tall, with long dark hair and pert breasts. He thought of her sturdy thighs wrapped around his waist, pulling his cock into her, as had been the case only two days ago when they fucked. Peter felt himself begin to harden and again struggled to focus his mind elsewhere.
