RING! 6am. Melanie Peterson awoke from her slumber. She wiped the sleep from her eyes and slowly rolled out of bed. It was Tuesday. She had to get ready for work.
She fixed herself up. A little make up to hide the bags under her eyes. Just a touch of lipstick. The lines around her eyes were becoming more pronounced. It was to be expected for a 45-year-old woman. Her sun streaked was starting to become grey streaked. She carried an extra 20-30 pounds on her. She was never a head turner, and she was at peace with that.
The morning news played in the background. Otherwise, the house was silent. She'd been divorced for almost 10 years, and the kids had both graduated college and moved out of state. But life goes on.
She pulled on a long dress, flat shoes, and fixed her hair. She grabbed a toast as she scurried out the door. Ten minutes later she entered the parking lot of the accounting firm where she worked.
Meetings, emails, and crunching numbers. She was good at her job and got along well with her coworkers.
"Melanie, you need to get out more," her friend, Donna, said during lunch.
"Oh, that's just not me."
"You need to spice up your life a little."
"Maybe I do, " Melanie mused.
The afternoon passed, and Melanie made her way back home.
The house was silent and empty. She filled the void with a Lifetime movie and microwave popcorn. As she watched the movie, she let her dress creep up. No one could see far thru the windows and into her home during the daylight, she reasoned. She idly played with herself. Her hand rubbing her pussy through her panties. Just enough to get her aroused. Almost 10 years since she'd been divorced. Over 10 years since she'd been with a man.
That night she laid in bed and pulled out a vibrator and dildo. Over 10 years since she'd been with a man, but she found ways to get by. Every night she played with herself. Naked in bed. She pinched her sensitive nipples. She teased her pussy with the vibrator. Slowly she spread her legs apart. Then she replaced the vibrator with the dildo. 10 long and thick black inches of pleasure. With her pussy aroused and sensitive, she'd slide it all the way in. Every inch filling her with pleasure. One hand playing with her sagging tits, and one hand slowly pumping the dildo. Soon she came in a wet and sweaty orgasm. A damp wet spot left on the bed, she moved to the other side to sleep for the night.

The next day at lunch, Donna continued to press Melanie. "Don't you ever get lonely? When was the last time you even went on a date?"
"Jesus, I haven't been on a date since, I don't know when - before I was married."
"Melanie, you don't have to remarry, but it's ok to have a little fun. I worry about you sometimes."
"What about you, Donna? You seem in a good mood lately. Maybe I should do whatever you're doing, " Melanie conceded. "Maybe a change would do me good."
"I think you'd be surprised," Donna replied, a glint in her eye.
That night Melanie orgasmed again, but she felt rote. She wanted something more. A new thrill, a new adventure, a new sensation.
The next day she wore thigh high stockings under her pant suit. No one would know, but it made her feel sexy. She'd do this occasionally when she wanted an extra thrill. Sometimes she'd wear a thong; sometime to hide her panty lines; sometimes because she wanted to feel sexier. Sometimes she'd go to work without any panties. It was her little secret. She could never risk her career by doing anything explicit at work. Besides, she was older and pudgier. No one would be interested in her like that. She heard how some of the guys talked about the young interns. She couldn't compete with those interns, and she knew it.
She went thru the work day but wearing the stockings didn't seem to do the trick anymore. The next day she wore stockings again. And no panties. With a dress. A long dress, but a dress nonetheless. And somehow it left her feeling sadder. What good was being sexy for nobody else?
She briefly considered more risquΓ© options. Go braless. She had large nipples that would easily poke thru. Or wear shorter dresses to flash someone the top of her stockings. Or even let them look up her dress to her hairy pussy. But, no, she couldn't risk that. Her job and reputation were too important. She couldn't risk coming across someone she knew.... Even if she could work up the courage to put on a show.
"Donna, what should I do? I'm in a rut," Melanie complained.
"What are you looking for?" Donna asked.
"Something. I don't know. I need some excitement."
"Maybe you just need a vacation?"
"I just went to California last month. I don't think that's it. I've just been lonely lately".
"Do you wanna go to a bar. Maybe you'll meet someone."
"You know I don't drink. And I suck at inane bar conversation."
"What about online dating sites?"
"Oh God, Donna. I'm scared of STD's. And the conversations just get even more inane. And the guys my age... they're pathetically creepy. I don't know. Maybe I'm just like them."
"Melanie," she implored. "You may be pathetic, but you're certainly not creepy.". They both laughed.
"What about you, Donna? Are you seeing anyone?"
"Well, not exactly," Donna replied demurely.
"Friends with benefits? Oh God, is it someone from work?" Melanie blurted. She blushed, suddenly aware of the other folks around in the cafΓ©. This was a frequent lunch hot spot for her coworkers. The cafΓ© was noisy, however, and no one seemed to take notice.
Donna lowered her voice and replied, "I have a group of guys who take care of my needs."
"A group?" Melanie asked, her voice also lowered.
