I was staying in a holiday let in the south of France that belongs to a business partner, and on my first day there I had an incredible experience with Colette, the young lady that does the gardening. For the next couple of days I waited for her to arrive but she didn't show up, and I did not know what days she worked. I am not sure what I was expecting to happen, if anything, but it would just be nice to see her again.
On the third day when she did not show up, I took the car and drove to the nearby village to do some shopping and have a look round. I stopped at a little café and had a coffee and cognac and sat in the warm spring sun, watching the world go past. Late morning I drove back to the house and when I got there her little scooter was parked out front. I put the car back in the garage as it was a country lane and there was not enough space to leave the car on the road.
Feeling rather excited, I went into the house and through to the back where I could see the garden. There she was, tending the flowers, whistling as she worked, just like last time, only this time she was fully clothed. Even in her work clothes she looked quite chic, with a loose shirt/blouse that was tied in a knot at her waist, quite short shorts, and her long legs were bare and nothing on her feet.
I knew her body, intimately, but even so I admired her even when dressed. She was of dusky Mediterranean colouring, medium height and had a slim body with shoulder length brunette hair, a slim bust, narrow waist and tight bum. Her legs were long and shapely and her whole body moved with an easy sensuous. From where I was watching I could not detect any bra under her shirt, but as her breasts were quite small she had no need of one.
Having watched her for a while I went out the garden to meet her. Not wanting to make her jump I said 'hello' from a distance.
She jumped as I spoke and turned around. She looked slightly surprised to see me and then smiled.
'I thought maybe you had gone back home,' she said.
'No, I just went to do some shopping'. I looked at her admiringly and the memories of our first meeting flashed through my mind until I realised I was staring at her body, not listening to what she was saying.
'I was going to make some coffee, would you like some?' I asked and she accepted.
When the coffee was made I went out and sat on the swing seat on the back porch and she came over and joined me, and we sat in a slightly embarrassed silents for a few moments.
'I wanted to...'
'What happened...'
We both spoke at the same time. 'Go on' I told her, 'you first'.
'I was just going to say, what we did, you know, the other day, it was so good, so nice and you were so kind and gentle, and good too. It has been over a year since I split with my boyfriend partner. There are some nice guys around here, but in a village like this if you go out with someone, everybody expects you to marry them. And in a small community, if you do anything before you are married everyone seems to know about it straight away. No one here knows you and you don't know them, so we are safe from discovery.'
I told her about my divorce a couple of years back and how setting up the new business had used all my time, and so that first morning had been very special for me too. I thought she was a sweet and attractive girl and I had enjoyed the time more than words could express. It was amazing, here was a girl, probably in her mid to late twenties thanking a man in his early forties for having taken her on the grass.
As she spoke, she put a friendly hand on my leg and smiled, and we talked on some more about ourselves. Was it accidental, intentional or my imagination, but was her hand slightly higher up my thigh than would be entirely normal, and her fingers slightly more around my thigh?
When we finished the coffee, she said she had to get back to work, as she needed to finish a bit early as she was meeting up with some girl friends. She went back to her gardening and I went indoors to wash up the mugs, though I did sneak a look at her working, the memory of our previous encounter still resonating in my mind.
About mid-afternoon, when the day was at its hottest she came to the door.
'If is OK I would like to use the shower. Michael (who owns the house) gave me a key, so I sometimes get cleaned up here if I am going out.'
'That's fine' I said, 'do you have everything you need?'
She showed me the small bag she had with her and said she had everything. She went upstairs and I heard her moving around in the bathroom and then the shower running. Then I heard her voice as she called down 'Hi John, I forgot my towel, do you have a spare?'
I got one from the downstairs airing cupboard and took it up. I could hear the shower running and the bathroom door was slightly ajar, so I pushed it open and went in. She was in the shower and heard me enter but didn't seem concerned, after all, I had seen her naked before!
'Thanks, John. Would you put it on the basin' and I put the towel down where she could reach it.
On the spur of the moment, I didn't leave, but sat down on the closed toilet to watch her. She had her back to me and it took her a few moments to realise that I was still in the room. She still didn't object.
She had her back to me with the shower playing on her front, and as I sat there, I admired her body. She had a lovely, slender figure, a typical dusky, Mediterranean colouring, her skin so smooth, flawless. From her shapely neck I followed the line of her spine down her long back to the first curves of her buttocks. She had a beautiful, perfect bottom, with two perfectly proportioned, round mounds with a slight dimple at the top of the crack that separated them. Below her bum her long, shapely legs led down to her trim ankles and almost dainty feet. Given her tan, I was surprised that there were no tan lines, anywhere, as she obviously sunbathed with nothing on, as I had found her on that first day.
