Bethany stood on the small balcony that stood high above the reception area just inside the front door. Ever since she was a small child she had stood there on party nights, watching the guests gather, and admiring their fine clothes and jewels.
Once she had turned sixteen she was allowed to join some of the parties, and after her eighteenth birthday she attended them all, but she still liked to stand above everyone watching them gather.
It gave her a little thrill to be watching them unseen, even though she was in plain sight. No-one every looked up.
She hadn't changed into her party dress yet. Her party things were all laid out on the bed in the room behind her, and soon she would have to hurry up, shower and dress. But just now was her time, looking down unseen and watching the performers gather.
She sensed him come up behind her. Mike, her boyfriend, her lover, her future.
"Hi, Mike," she murmured. "It's odd, you know, but no-one ever looks up and sees me here. I've been watching them for years."
She heard Mike breath an answer, but didn't turn. A wandering hand settled on her bottom, lightly stroking her. She giggled.
"Now, now, Mike. This is not really the time or place."
The hand didn't waver, moving smoothly over her bottom. Suddenly it dipped slightly, down below her skirt and then back up, this time on the inside of the skirt. Now there was only a thin piece of lace undies between Mike's wandering hand and her sensitive skin.
Bethany found herself twitching her bottom about, liking the feel of Mike rubbing her, laughing to herself, because all those people could see, if they just looked up. Well, they'd see her, standing there laughing quietly. They wouldn't see Mike or the hand on her bottom.
Now both of Mike's hands were on her bottom, paying some interesting homage to it. It felt as though every inch of her cheeks were touched on by those roving hands, and they gave her such exciting feelings.
She gasped as one hand dipped lower, sliding between her legs and rubbing against her mound. She shuddered slightly, as tingles spread from where Mike was touching her, and heat stirred deep within.
"Stop it, Mike," Bethany hissed. "This is not the time or place. Later, I promise. We just don't have time right now, especially out here."
