I sat on the sofa sipping my beer, the party flowing around me. I'd reached that point where being drunk, turned into being tired. I'd been talking to quite a few people, meeting and laughing with them, but right now I just wanted to take five. Most of the people were in the garden enjoying the barbecue, put on by a couple of my friends. It was still light outside - just past high summer, and it was nice and warm.
The sofa jolted abruptly as someone sat next to me. I turned my head lazily staring at a pair of bare knees, neatly shaved. My eyes continued up to the hem of figure hugging dark purple skirt partly covered by a black shirt, which, as my eyes continued upward, I was grateful to see, was very open.
"You look depressed." She said.
I looked up from her chest and met a smiling face. She looked about my age 29, maybe younger. Her round face fitted her curvy body and slightly round belly, whose jewelled button poked out from under the last of the only three fastened shirt buttons.
"Nope," I smiled back, "Just chillin'. I was a bit tired."
"Was?" She nudged me a little.
She's flirting with me, should I flirt back? My mind began to work out if I fancied her or not, but my body had already decided for me and I found myself sat facing her.
"Er, yeah. You know," I leaned forward a little, "you can't stay tired when you're talking to someone as beautiful as you." Oh you prat, I thought, talk about using a mallet to crack a walnut.
"Thank you." Her smile grew - phew, I thought.
I was wearing shorts, so when she moved a little closer I could feel the heat of her legs centimetres from mine. My previously muzzy mind began to focus on this woman. Her legs were tanned an even light brown, from the hem of her skirt, right down to her black open toed shoes. Her calves smoothly made their way to her knees, then to her thighs up under that lovely tight skirt. I tried to concentrate on her face, tried not to make it too obvious that I was ogling her, I secretly hoped she was as horny as I was becoming.
"Who do you know then? John or Karen?" I enquired.
"I know John from work. I work in accounts."
She seemed to shy away from her statement. I could see she was shorter than I was, which is a good thing as I'm only 5'8" myself. Angling myself toward her, I placing an arm casually over the back of the sofa.
"There's nothing wrong with accounts." I reassured. "It could be worse, you could be a PE teacher."
I gained a little laugh from that. Pleased with myself I decided to try for contact and placed my knee against her outer thigh. She didn't move, instead her eyes dropped to my lips and then back to my eyes. She licked her own lips slowly.
"And you? Karen or John?" She asked.
"John as well. We go all he way back to primary school. I've probably known himβ¦" She placed her hand on my knee causing me to take an unexpected breath, "...since we were eight."
"You poor sod!"
We laughed, while I was thinking where we could go for some privacy? And how willing was she? Her hand moved to my inner thigh, her index finger made a little circle. I could feel myself getting excited and I had to concentrate hard on not growing erect in such an open place. I looked at her eyes, she knew what she was doing - the smile she was beaming at me clearly showed that.
"Let's go outside, get a drink." I suggested.
"Okay."
I stood rising to look down on the top of her head, her blond hair flowed down her back - no roots I mentally noted. When she looked up I caught another glimpse of her sizeable breasts squeezed together by a black satin bra. Resting her hand flat on my stomach she steadied herself and adjusted her shoe.
"Wow! You must run your pupils ragged."
"Sometimes." I replied proudly winking and raising my shirt to show off my toned stomach.
She stroked my six-pack, gently letting her fingers run over the ripple of my muscles. When the hand reached the top of my shorts it was removed, much to my disappointment. I let my shirt fall and breathed out slightly as subtly as I could, letting the tension subside.
I followed her to the garden where the beer cooled in a water filled container. It was getting late and there were only a couple of people left, which I was thankful for as I could feel my erection arcing outward slightly. For the most part I angled myself behind her - hiding. I couldn't help looking down at her round bottom pressing out of her skirt, her thong visible through the material, disappearing between her cheeks.
