I had just turned 22. The previous year I had left university with a first-class honours degree in economics. Having secured a place on the graduate programme of a large accountancy firm, I had decided to take a gap year and go travelling.
One year later, the beaches of Thailand and Australia were a distant memory and I was getting used to the daily grind of living and working in London.
My life in London quickly settled into the type of routine that will be familiar to many young graduates starting out on their career journeys: very long hours, drinking excessively until the early hours, and then back in the office the next morning nursing the biggest hangover in history. And my typical weekend, if I wasn't working, involved drinking even more, going out clubbing and frequently waking up in bed with a random guy or girl, with no recollection of who they were or what we'd done.
Yes, I was really living the London dream!
Oh, and did I say? I really hated my flatmate!
I had been friends with Kirsty at university and therefore it had sounded like a good idea when she suggested we share a flat when we moved to London.
However, in the year since we'd left university, Kirsty had become a Christian and had turned into the dullest and most prudish person I'd ever met.
However, although I found her fucking annoying, one thing I could thank her for was the part she inadvertently played in getting me into escorting.
We were both sitting in the kitchen one evening when Kirsty said in the most disapproving way possible, "Lisa, you're not going to believe this. Julie told me today that she's been working for an escort agency for the last few months. She's actually on its website with her tits out! Do you think I should say something? Maybe I should try and convince her to stop?"
I tried hard not to laugh out loud. I was not naive. I was fully aware what escorts did, but I found Kirsty's puritanical response ridiculous.
The girl that Kirsty was talking about was a mutual friend from university. I was not particularly surprised to learn that Julie had become an escort. She was drop dead gorgeous, had an insatiable appetite for sex, and had fucked more people at university than anyone I knew.
I was really curious to see Julie's online profile.
As Kirsty launched into a lecture on morality, I nodded sympathetically and pretended to share her concern for Julie. I even bit my lip when Kirsty referred to the number of people that I had fucked since moving to London, implying that I was also a whore who was destined for hell.
However, as soon as i was alone in my bedroom I texted Julie, "Wow, I heard you are escorting - that's cool with me by the way. Please do send me a link? Lisa, xxx."
A minute later my phone pinged. Julie's message simply said, "Thanks Lisa, J x," followed by a website link.
I clicked on the link and was taken to a smartly designed homepage that promised, "Exclusive, high class, university educated English girls".
I clicked on the button labelled, "Meet the Girls" and was taken to a page which had thumbnail pictures of around 20 girls.
I spotted Julie immediately, although I noted that she'd adopted the pseudonym "Sienna" for her escorting activities. I clicked on her picture and was taken to her personal profile page.
Wow! Julie's page contained a dozen professionally taken photos, including pictures of her in a beautiful black dress and in sensual lingerie that perfectly showcased her enormous boobs and voluptuous arse. As Kirsty had reported, in one picture she was fully naked. Her magnificent breasts were on display, although her hands were strategically placed to obscure her pussy. My own hand instinctively slid into my knickers.
Julie's page also contained a short biography. Although she was using a fake name, most of what she had written about herself was true. Her page also listed her vital statistics, the sexual activities she enjoyed and her hourly rate. I stroked my clit as I read the reviews posted by some of her clients and I could feel my panties getting wetter.
As I flicked around the website I came to a page entitled, "Work for us", which included an online application form.
As the fingers of my left hand began to part my pussy lips and curl inside, my right hand instinctively started typing responses to the application questions.
In that moment I don't think I was intending to actually submit the application. I was simply finding answering the very personal questions while vigorously playing with myself a major turn on.
The application questions (and my answers) included the following: Height (5"5); Dress size (8); Hair (Brunette); Breast size (32B); Natural or enhanced (natural); Pubic hair (thin strip); Straight of bisexual (Bi); A-levels (sometimes).
