(Part 1)
Prologue
Dan
The lights of passing vehicles flickered across the ceiling, just the visible part of the unending background cacophony of the city. My breathing returned to normal as my dick softened after filling Lisa's pussy for the first time in weeks.
I suppose it was a pretty normal situation in a long term relationship, but I really did miss the level of passion that slowly receded during our thirteen year marriage. It used to be Lisa and I couldn't keep our hands off each other. Of course, the fucking two or three times a day routine faded pretty quickly but we still managed a healthy, active sex life for a long time.
Now it just seemed even that was vanishing quickly. We never seem to be interested at the same time and so only managed a quick, perfunctory fuck once every week or two at best.
That night was a perfect example. We sort of fooled around a few minutes after climbing into bed. I think she climaxed when I slipped my cock inside her. It was over so quickly, I can't really be sure. Then she rolled to her side facing away from me as I stared at the ceiling.
I wished I had an answer.
Lisa
I don't know when or why things became so...well...dull. Dan's cock still felt somewhat pleasant inside me, cumming in me, yet it hardly seemed worth the effort. I faked the orgasm to satisfy him but knew my own gratification would come later...alone..in the shower...on my own hand.
We were certainly comfortable enough in most ways...decent jobs, good incomes and all that...but it wasn't enough. I could hear his ragged breathing becoming more measured and knew he would shortly drift off to sleep. The cooling trickle of his semen seeping down the inside of my thigh symbolized the emptiness I felt. I rolled over to face him.
"We really need to talk," I said softly.
Dan looked at me and I realized he understood completely, maybe even felt much the same way.
"Yeah, we do," he responded, "neither one of us wants to go on like this. We both need a new spark."
The Talk
Lisa
The next evening after dinner, I felt it was time to be honest, brutally so if necessary.
"When we were in bed last night Dan, you didn't seem interested. You seemed miles away."
He looked embarrassed.
"I am sorry Lisa. I had trouble keeping it up. I had to think of other things."
I had guessed this and wanted it out in the open.
"What or who were you thinking about?"
Dan shook his head. "It would be better if we didn't go there, Lisa. It may make us both more unhappy."
"We both agreed we need to talk, Dan. By that I mean we both have to talk. When we are in bed, you are obviously thinking about something besides me, another woman or girl perhaps. I want to be honest with you. I often think about somebody else. It is obviously fantasy but we have to deal with it."
I could see that my confession had shaken him. He thought for a moment before speaking.
"I want you to realize Lisa that I love you very much, and although I do think of other women and situations, I don't want us to separate. You know that this would be devastating for us both, not to mention our parents."
I nodded. Dan was a good, solid man and I certainly wanted to stay married. We both loved my parents who were well into their sixties and were quite religious. We were both brought up to be good Catholics and, although we no longer went every Sunday, we still attended on special occasions and went to Confession and Holy Communion at Christmas and Easter.
"Are you suggesting that we talk about each others fantasies, Lisa?"
"Yes. They are, after all, only fantasies. Everybody has them and they do no harm. I saw you look around today in the store at some of the women. Did you fancy any of them?"
He looked a bit shamefaced.
"I liked that young girl on her phone."
I smiled. I was glad he was being honest.
"She did look nice, although she was a bit plump and appeared to be with her father and mother."
Dan was relaxing more now and confessed.
"I do like women who are a bit plump and even a little older. Her mother was pretty nice looking as well."
I chuckled. This was the most candid conversation I had in years with my husband. He was relaxing and some very interesting things were coming out into the open.
"What about you, Lisa? I have told you my thoughts. What about yours?"
I had no intention of avoiding the issue. I had so many fantasies over the years and it would be a relief to finally share some of them with Dan.
"I liked the look of that man with the women, the one in the dark suit and yellow tie."
"The old man with glasses and the white hair and beard?"
"Yes. He looked like a Head Master."
Dan looked at me quizzically.
"Do you have schoolgirl fantasies, Lisa?"
It was my turn to blush.
"Yes, Dan, but as a grown up schoolgirl."
