It started out like most any other Saturday morning. I was just heading over to a friends place so we could blow the day doing the usual nonsense two twenty-something guys do when they have too much spare time. Little did I know it would turn into the best day of my life.
First I guess this story needs a little set up. This happened a couple of years ago, back when the X-Files was still shot in Vancouver, which is where I lived then and now. Iâve never been a particularly big fan of the show but Iâve always been a fan of itsâ lead actress, Gillian Anderson. For my money sheâs as beautiful as any woman in the world and Iâm not ashamed to admit Iâve spent many lonely nights fantasising about being in her arms. At the time I was twenty-one years old. Iâm quite tall (about 6 foot 4), have dark brown hair and green eyes. I donât work out much, but Iâm not fat, just a touch pudgy. My last girlfriend always called me her âbig cuddle bearâ. I liked that.(Maybe Iâll tell you all about her sometimeâŠ) Iâve always been quite shy, especially around attractive members of the opposite sex. Unfortunately this left me single most of the time. But nonetheless there were always women around who were willing to make the first move so it wasnât like I was suffering or anything like that. But enough about me, on to the good stuff.
At the time I still lived at my parents place, which was in a pretty decent neighbourhood in Vancouver. My friend Brad lived about fifteen minutes away and like most people on a short drive I probably wasnât paying as much attention to the road as I should. There was a stack of CDâs on the passenger seat that I was taking to Bradâs place and as I turned around a corner I must have turned a bit too hard as the CDâs went tumbling forward.
âShit!â I exclaimed. A couple of the CD cases had popped open and the disks had come out. As the disks were Bradâs not mine I was a bit concerned. I didnât want to scratch up his disks as he was already pretty paranoid about who heâd lend them too. To this day I donât know why, but I decided to try and pick up the disks without stopping the car. It could have been the single stupidest thing Iâd done in my whole life, and believe me thatâs quite an accomplishment. As I was fumbling around with the first disk I suddenly heard a sound that would change my life. Actually, it was two sounds. First, the sound of a car horn. Second, the sound of my car ramming into another vehicle. Actually, there was a third sound; my head hitting the passenger side dashboard.
I was a bit stunned, but otherwise I was alight. In a few seconds my vision cleared and I looked out the windshield, and what I saw distressed me greatly. Not only was my beater of a car wrecked, but I had just run head on into a very nice black car, a Lexus I think.
All I could think was âI bet some rich lawyer owns that car. Heâll probably take me to court for this.â
We were still in the middle of a residential area, not on some main drive so I was hoping no one had seen me run into this rather expensive vehicle and maybe this imaginary lawyer would have a hard time finding a witness.
Then the driver side door opened and the site before me stunned just as much as the accident Iâd just been in. Out stepped a woman that bore an uncanny resemblance to Gilllian Anderson. She was wearing blue jeans and a grey sweatshirt, a far cry from the look she had on T.V. but as she walked toward my car there was no doubt, it was her.
She walked up to my driver side window, looked in and asked, âAre you alright?â
Her voice sounded genuinely concerned, not upset at all as I had expected. Now I found myself staring into the beautiful blue eyes of Gillian Anderson. After what probably felt a lot longer than it really was I managed to stammer out, âY-Yeah Iâm okay I think.â She must have thought I was still stunned from the accident but that wasnât it. In fact I had almost forgot the accident had happened at all. My heart was going as fast as it could and I couldnât believe this. Hey, worst case scenario Iâd at least be able to tell all my friends that I rammed Gillian Anderson!
I opened up my car door and stepped out into the street, trying desperately to think of something to say. The best I could manage was, âSorry about ramming into your car like that, I didnât mean to do it . I was just driving to a friends place, you see and I dropped these CDâs and I was trying to pick them up andâŠâ and I was babbling like an idiot.
âHey, itâs alright, just try and relax a littleâ, she said, putting a hand on my left shoulder.
She could tell I knew who she was and that I was very nervous.
âNeither of us seems to be hurt and thatâs what is important.â
âY-Yeahâ, I stammered back, âI guess your right. Still, sorry I was such an idiot.â
She smiled a little and said, âNo big deal. Listen, both of our cars still look in good enough shape to drive. Why donât we take this mess out of the middle of the road and over to my place where we can talk about it?â
âYour place?â I probably sounded a little more excited than I should have, but she didnât seem to notice or care.
âYeah, Iâve got a nice little place around here. I use it when Iâm in town. I guess we should formally introduce ourselves. Iâm Gillian.â
âI know!â She smiled again, a little wider this time. God she was even prettier in person. âMy nameâs Michael.â
âWell all things considered itâs good to meet you Michaelâ, she said and extended her hand. I shook it delicately. Her skin was unbelievably soft.
âOkayâ, she said, âGet in your car and follow me.â
We only had to drive about a mile to get to her place. It was just a standard townhouse, blended in against an array of endless townhouses. Very inconspicuous, perfect for trying to stay out of the way of unwanted attention from fans and media. It wasnât at all unlike my own home, at least from the outside.
She pulled into the driveway and I pulled in behind her. We both got out of what was left of our cars.
âPlease come inside Michael.â
Who was I to argue with Gillian Anderson? As we walked up the steps to her house I couldnât help taking a peek at her ass in those tight blue jeans. It looked pretty damn fantastic from where I was standing. She unlocked the door, turned to me and said, âWe can make any phone calls we have to here. A lot better than in the middle of the street donât you think?â
âAbsolutelyâ, I said, trying not to pay any attention to the heat I was beginning to feel in my crotch.
âPlease, come into the kitchen.â
It was an amazingly normal house. You could tell it was that way on purpose. This woman may have been rich and famous but she still had her feet grounded in reality. Somehow that thought relieved me greatly.
âMichael, would you like anything to drink?â
âOh, thank you very much, thatâs most kind of youâ, I replied, starting to feel quite at ease with myself.
âIs water alright?â, she asked.
âThat would be just fine, thanks.â
She took two glasses out of a cupboard and as she reached up, her sweatshirt raised a bit. Not enough to see too much but just the sight of that milky white skin of her spine was enough to send a shiver down mine, not to mention send quite the jolt down into my crotch.
She turned on the tap filling both glasses, and handed me one. Our hands just barely caressed each other as I took the glass from her. âHere you are.â, she said.
âThank you.â Another shiver down my spine.
As I sat in her kitchen she stared aimlessly out the window at what had been one hell of a car less than half an hour ago. She looked to be in deep thought, probably thankful she hadnât been injured. My eyes on the other hand were firmly fixed on her body. I couldnât stop my eyes from moving up and down every inch of her. Even dressed as plainly as she was and with no make-up she was stunning. Just as my eyes passed over her ass for the third time she turned to look at me. Busted. She just smiled another pretty little smile as I quickly averted my gaze, pretending Iâd been looking over her house and not the housesâ occupant.
âGod I feel hot right now, donât youâ, she asked, âI guess being in such a sudden accident will do that.â
