The Beach
Outside it was a perfect late summer's day. Mark looked out the window at the sun glinting on the water, the perfect baby-blue sky and the light wispy clouds, and groaned inwardly. His leave was over for this summer and the prospect was for a long, difficult business year ahead. It had never really struck him until recently, that retirement mightn't be such a bad option after all, but it was a long way away. He turned back to the computer screen and tried to summon some level of focus for the task at hand.
The work made a little more enjoyable with classical music playing on the radio and he had become absorbed in what he was doing when a message window popped up from his screen. It was from Catherine.
"Hi Mark, I had an appointment this afternoon but it's been cancelled, which means I can take an extra long lunch. Can you get away? xxx"
Mark had just about finished the job he was doing, he was owed some time and it was a beautiful sunny day. What could be better than spending an afternoon with Catherine?
He replied to her message.
"Sounds great Cathy! 12:30 in the usual place?"
Almost instantly a response came back.
"Goody! I'll get a drink and something to eat. See you soon!"
It was fortunate that he had nearly finished the document on the computer, because the prospect of a lunch time meeting with Catherine usually started him daydreaming very naughty thoughts.
A short time later, after the document had been finished and emailed to the client, Mark logged off his computer, grabbed his wallet and keys and headed out the door. He took the lift to the carpark, started the car and made his way into the traffic. A few minutes later he pulled up at their usual meeting place and turned the engine off. Catherine wasn't there yet, he must have slightly misjudged his timing.
Mark turned the radio on and reached down to switch it to the classical music station. The car was filled with the gentle sound of strings and he settled back in his seat, slightly excited with anticipation. He wondered where they might go - it would depend on how long Catherine had free. He glanced in the rear view mirror and saw Catherine walking up the street.
Catherine usually wore smart jeans to work but today she had a beautiful floral summer dress on, basically white with large red and yellow flowers. The hem swished around her legs as she walked, and she had flat sandals on her feet. She carried a light cloth bag over her shoulder.
Mark opened the door as she reached the car, and she got in. He noticed her bare legs as she settled into the seat, and his heart rate increased a little as the lovely dress bunched up around her thighs. She smiled at him and he drank in the sight of her smiling face. Her hair had been cut in the last couple of days and hug stylishly around her neck, and her lips shone with soft pink, glossy lipstick.
"This is a pleasant surprise!" he said, as she put her bag on the floor and clipped the seat belt into place.
"How long do you have?"
"It is, isn't it?" she replied. "Oh, it doesn't matter when I get back today. Can we go to the beach?"
"Why not?!" he smiled and put the indicator on to pull into the traffic. Catherine put her hand on his leg.
It had been a while since they had seen each other so they had plenty to talk about so they chatted while Mark negotiated the way out of the city. Before too long he was able to accelerate to the speed limit and he flicked on the cruise control.
Mark glanced across at Catherine's legs with the material of her dress still up around her thighs.
"I really like you wearing a dress." he said as he moved his hand to her leg, cool from the air conditioning.
"I thought you'd like it" she replied, smiling "and since it's such a lovely summer day I thought I'd take advantage of it."
"Ha!" Mark exclaimed "I'd like to take advantage of it too!" He moved his hand a little further up Catherine's leg.
"Only if you were allowed..." she said, cheekily.
Mark moved his hand away again.
"Oh, am I not allowed?" he asked, with mock innocence.
"You'll have to find out, won't you?"
Mark smiled and kept his eyes on the road, but he moved his hand back to Catherine's leg and slid it up under the material of her dress.
"Is that OK?" he asked?
"Ok so far" she laughed.
Mark drew circles on the bare skin of Catherine's thigh with the tips of his fingers and stroked her leg with the palm of his hand. Gradually his hand moved a bit further up her leg and he rested it there for a while and concentrated on the road. Catherine's hand was also moving, lightly stroking Mark's leg through his trousers. He was enjoying her soft touch as he drove.
Mark started tickling Catherine's leg again and slowly moved his hand further up under her dress until it was resting against the soft cotton of her knickers. He smiled to himself.
"Still OK?" he asked, jokingly.
"Hmmm, I guess..." she responded with fake seriousness.
"Oh, too far?" he answered, playing along and moving his hand away.
"Well, it's not going to do you much good, is it?"
"Maybe not. It's still exciting though." He moved his hand back and traced the tips of his fingers over the skin on Catherine's inner thigh and the front of her knickers. Catherine responded by moving her legs apart, and Mark's fingers slipped down the front of her pants into the warm, moist space between her legs. He ran his fingers over the softness of the cotton and the firmness of her body and applied a little pressure.
"Mmmm, that's nice," Catherine sighed, "but I think you should stop."
"Oh, OK." He was a little puzzled. "Had enough?" He moved his hand away again.
Catherine glanced at him from under her hair and smiled. She moved in her seat, lifting herself up from the leather. She moved both her hands up under her dress, hooked her fingers into the sides of her knickers and slowly pulled them down her legs and over her feet, taking care not to get them tangled in her sandals. When they were off she folded them and put them on Mark's lap. She settled back into her seat and moved her legs apart again.
"There you are. That might help!"
Mark laughed.
"You're so naughty! You always surprise me, I love it!!" And he moved his hand back between Catherine's legs. His fingers brushed up and down over her pubic hair and then moved lower to where it was warm and moist. Mark glanced across at Catherine and she gave him a delightfully sexy smile, inviting him to continue. He smiled back and returned his eyes to the road but his fingers continued their exploration. He touched her labia and ran his finger up and down between them. Catherine was wet, very wet, and she opened to him easily. She slipped a little forward in her seat so that it was easier for him to reach, and the movement pushed the tip of his finger into her wet, warm, tight vagina. Mark squirmed in his seat a little, trying to find a comfortable position for the growing erection in his pants.
"Ooh you feel good!" he said, and she could hear the excitement in his voice.
Sitting there beside him, with the traffic going past, her dress pulled right up and his finger inside her was thrilling for Catherine. She knew that drivers of trucks or buses might be able to see how she was sitting and what was happening but she loved the naughty feeling that she might be on display. She wanted Mark to keep going.
"It feels good for me too, but my clit is feeling a bit lonely!"
Mark laughed and moved his finger from Catherine's wet vagina. He traced up between her lips and found her hard little clitoris. He drew circles around the head with the tip of his finger.
"Mmmm, I like that!" she moaned.
They were coming to the end of the highway and the road became more winding. Mark had to use both hands on the wheel so he moved his left hand away from Catherine and concentrated on the road again.
"Hold that thought Cathy," he said "we might be able to get back to it later."
Catherine was disappointed. Being fingered in semi-public like that was turning her on.
