Have you ever been in the position of being instantly attracted to someone? Not necessarily a mutual attraction but one where your heart seems to leap at the sight of her and you get a hollow feeling in your stomach? I have.
I was down at the beach with some friends. We were just clowning around generally. You know how it is with young men at the beach, busy impressing any likely talent. There were a number of young ladies scattered throughout our group, some of whom I knew and some I didn't.
I spotted a rather attractive blonde who I didn't know. She was sporting an excuse for a bikini, had a nice tan, her blonde hair nearly reaching her waist, and her figure from the rear was out of this world. I couldn't tell what she was like from a front view as her back was to me, but she was talking to someone I did know so I drifted that way, angling for an introduction.
"How's it going, Megan?" I said sauntering up to her and her friend.
"How's what going?" she asked, while her friend turned around to see who was speaking to them.
Oh boy! The front more than matched the promise of the rear. Most prominent were her breasts, beautifully shaped and barely contained within that bikini, a bikini designed for ripping off if I ever saw one. Big blue eyes that seemed to latch onto me and not want to let go. She had a heart-shaped face, with a small dimple showing on her smiling face, and just like that I was deep in lust.
"This is Miranda, my cousin. Miranda, this is Bryce, a pest. Now that you've been introduced go away and worship us from afar. We're busy."
With that she took hold of Miranda's arm and towed her away, taking my heart with her. A cruel and selfish woman, Megan. At least, Miranda turned and flashed a smile at me. I just wished she'd flash other things.
After that the day was ruined for me. I just couldn't be bothered with the other girls, lust for Miranda ruling the day. I didn't think that the attraction was all one-sided, either. Any time I glanced over in her direction it seemed to me I caught her either looking in my direction or hastily turning her head away.
I managed to time things so that when Miranda wasn't talking to anyone there I was at her side, proposing a stroll along the beach, enjoying the gentle breeze and warm sun.
"We can just talk and get to know a few things about each other," I suggested.
"Just a walk along the beach, talking?" she asked. "You're not going to be trying to get me alone somewhere and take advantage of me, are you?"
"That, too," I admitted. "The trouble is that there aren't any reasonably private places along this stupid beach where we can be alone and I can take advantage. Hopefully I'll think of some way to make one."
She giggled but when I touched my fingers to her elbow she came along, and we strolled along the water's edge. We didn't talk about anything of great consequence, just a little bit of mutual flirtation. Mind you, I did notice that her nipples were poking little points against her bikini but I was too much of a gentleman to say anything. That didn't mean I didn't think things.
We were passing the car park and it occurred to me that my car was up there and in my car were a couple of beach towels. I could quite easily think of a few things I'd like to be doing with those beach towels at that moment, or perhaps I should say on those towels. That's when another odd thought struck me.
