Note: I have used the word condom several times, which is the British English word for what is known in America as a rubber.
As a writer of erotic fiction I often wonder what it would be like to be in the shoes of one of my characters. I write about all sorts of erotic encounters; the sort, which men dream of but my own sex life is pretty normal. I have a girl friend. Though we don't live together, we are close and the sex is good. I can't imagine writing about sex with my girlfriend though.
I had harboured this desire to somehow live out a fantasy for months. It wasn't that I was running out of ideas, just that I wanted to see if I could actually do something genuinely erotic and then put it to paper.. I didn't want to have to imagine for once. I wasn't sure what this scenario would be and for weeks I left the idea on the back burner. It was when I was writing a story the other day that the idea appealed to me again. It had to be erotic, but feasible. I decided, just once that I would go out and try and have sex with a complete stranger and write about it. It's a common enough fantasy but I had no idea how plausible or doable it was. I would try. I entered into this with a degree of excitement, trepidation and some guilt. Yes, I would be cheating on my girl friend. However, I wasn't married, not even engaged. She was a girlfriend.
It was New Year's Day and I had gone into town to see if there were any bargains to be had. One of my favourite haunts is Waterspoon's Bookshop. It has a nice Starbrook's coffee house, where one can have a chocolate cake and latte after browsing the books.
The city centre was quiet but there was enough lovely young women to at least give me some encouragement. I was pleased to see that the trend of leggings with no skirt or pullover was showing no sign of fading and there was many a fine, pert ass and cute little mound for me to ogle and feed the lust for my writing.
I meandered the quiet side streets, which look so quaint when there are few people about although I was concerned the bookshop might be closed, as it seemed very few businesses had bothered to open. It was New Year's Day, but I had figured, albeit wrongly that everywhere, or at least most places would be open. However, to my surprise Waterspoon's was indeed open and I went in by the corner entrance. I was about to take the lift to the third floor and the coffee shop when a flash of white caught my peripheral vision. I turned and almost had to catch my breath.
There was a girl behind the fancy postcard and stationery counter, who I swear had the best tits I've ever seen. I'm not going to be able to do them justice on paper, but I'll do my best. She was eighteen or nineteen I guess, with short dark brown hair and just the most butter-wouldn't-melt face I ever saw. She had dark brown eyes, a cute nose and full, rosy pink lips. To be honest she made Bambi look like the Elephant Man. Then there were her breasts. They weren't huge, but they were big. Not just big, but round like water melons, so that from whatever angle you viewed them, they were perfect. If that wasn't enough, her nipples had begun to point through her T shirt and brassiere.
I had no chance with this girl. She looked so good, she must have had no idea how good she looked and I suspect she was a virgin. I made an excuse to go right up to the counter and made a spurious enquiry about something. She spoke with a middle class, Daddy's girl accent and she really was just a total sweetheart. As confident as I am with the opposite sex, even trying to get it on with this beauty was futile. I thanked her for her assistance, while spending as long as was reasonably possible getting an eyeful of her puppies and caught the lift to the top floor.
Undeterred I browsed the wildlife section and then the shelves with politics and political biographies, which is an area I enjoy reading. There was a waft of coffee drifting my way from Starbrook's, and it won the battle for my attention with a polemical chapter on the British economy. I joined the queue and set my heart on a piece of hazelnut cake. The café was quite busy and I had begun to look for a place to sit before I had been served. Two places in front of me was a woman in her late thirties, with a beige pencil thin skirt, within which her ass cheeks nestled like a pair of peaches. She turned to the barista and I noted she also had a fine pair of tits, which were embraced by a lacy-looking bra, evident through her white blouse. Her hair was long, mousy blonde. I would say she was a legal type or at least a professional. She wasn't gorgeous but good-looking. I decided she was a candidate for my adventure. I would try to fuck this woman.
I was served presently and conveniently found my self in an area with no free seats and casually asked the woman if I could sit at her table. She said that she didn't mind.
'Everyone seems to be in here, town's quiet today.' I said, trying to engage her early on.
'Yes. The one's I needed to go to, were open though.'
'Got anything good?'
The woman, who spoke with a cultured but local accent was clearly not overly accustomed to being chatted up by a complete random and eyed me with a little suspicion I felt. I tried to make my body language as comfortable and reassuring as possible. I was happy though, when she was the next to speak and I took the opportunity to play all my cards right.
'Have you found the book you were looking for?' She asked.
I wasn't sure if this was asked out of genuine interest or politeness while I temporarily shared her space.
'Actually no. I was browsing the political section, but I got the urge for coffee. How about you?'
'Yes, I got Nigella Lawson's latest book, with a token that my Sister got me for Christmas'
'Oh Nigella Lawson. There's a woman.'
'Like her do you?'
'Like her! Doesn't every man?'
This was a good opening. I saw a way to engineer the conversation from hereon in.
'She's a domestic Goddess.' I could write a story about her.'
'A story, you are a writer?'
'Indeed I am. Erotic fiction is my genre. I am out today on a sort of experimental folly. To get inspiration if you like.'
'Erotic fiction. Oh!'
The woman looked genuinely interested.
'What do you mean by an "experimental folly."
'I intend to sleep with a complete stranger and write about it.'
The woman, possibly involuntarily, shuffled in her seat and adjusted her blouse. I admit I felt a surge of adrenaline as I contemplated how she might react and what she was thinking. She could either take me for a complete weirdo and move to a different table or find my idea a turn on. I wasn't sure what to expect.
'Really?'
'Yes.'
'Anyone?'
'Not anyone no. They need to be fuckable, if you will excuse my language.'
The woman's face appeared to brighten up at my use of the word "fuckable."
'Are you serious?' She asked.
'Of course. As much as I use my imagination, I think doing something like that will just make a great story as well as being enjoyable. I hope.'
'What do you do with the stories? Do you publish them?'
'I'm currently writing a novella, which I hope to get published, but most of my stories go on a website called Literotica.'
'Literotica! I've never heard of it.'
'Are you married?' I asked.
There was quite a pause when she said nothing. I had had some scruples about following this line of conversation. It was intrusive and she was still slightly ill at ease. Then she smiled, what I thought was a warm smile. Her frostiness suddenly thawed as if the dawn itself had suddenly broken over the horizon.
'No, I'm not.'
