Now that I had a place to live and a steady job the problems of day to day living became clear. My new bungalow apartment was great, the rent was somewhat affordable, and there seemed to be perks if my flamboyant landlady got a glimpse of my anatomy now and then. A slightly inconvenient new development was that I was almost always horny. I walked around with a semi-hardon most of the time. My assignments with FD Corp. had provided a sexual outlet I no longer had. The stress of graduation, job and apartment hunting, and living totally on my own left me little time for a social life.
The coder job with Encompass was going well. The tweaks to the Smartphone photo program were going smoothly. The end result of placing a photo of a person on to a different but realistic background was looking very good. The only sticking point was watermarking the photos so that criminals couldn't remove the watermark and use the program to provide a photo alibi. I suggested creating a virus of sorts that would destroy the photo if anyone hacked the system and tried to remove the watermark.
I received an email from Jane and Ted requesting a Zoom meeting with me that evening. There was also a non-disclosure agreement they wanted me to sign and email back before the meeting. Since I was dealing with software and consumer products signing an NDA didn't strike me as odd. I had submitted one when I was hired. I figured they wanted a separate one for the X-treme division.
I hoped my watermark suggestion was met with approval. I knew the job had a probationary period and I was just starting to count on those paychecks coming in. I still needed to furnish my place. I wanted an air conditioner. I was truly spoiled being on scholarship at school, especially with extra financial help from FD Corp. I had no idea how expensive it was to live alone and I did not want a roommate. It became clear I was going to need a side hustle like working naked at parties again.
I'd been working on the watermark codes for most of the day and I needed a break. It was a beautiful summer day and I thought a swim would be relaxing. I threw on my board shorts and headed for the pool. I stopped at the door. Maybe if my landlady Vera got an eyeful of me in something more revealing she might bring me some more 'buy one get one free' goodies from the grocery store.
I dug through some boxes in the closet and found the sheer, yellow Speedo that I had worn for Mrs. Twombly when I was on FD Corp. assignment as her pool boy. It still molded perfectly to my ass and left nothing to the imagination in front. My cock and balls were shown to full advantage. I remembered that when wet, the Speedo was pretty transparent. As I remembered my session with Mrs. Twombly, especially having her service my dick while I was in bondage, the blood began flowing to my cock. I felt it swelling and lengthening. In no time I was sporting a full hard-on that barely fit in the small Speedo. That had to be worth some groceries.
I swam some laps and stretched out on one of the lounge chairs. My goods were so visible in the wet, sheer Speedo that I might as well have been stark naked. As I relaxed I kept remembering Axel modeling at Vera's art show. Watching him pop a boner as Vera dripped paint on him in front of a crowd of people was a pretty wild sight. I felt my own throbbing cock straining against the thin fabric. Damn, I was hard and horny. I was so lost in thought that I hadn't noticed that Vera had come in to the pool area with another of my neighbors in tow. As she spoke her eyes zeroed in on my turgid member. She sat right beside me on the lounge chair. As she chattered on, one of her hands managed to rest directly on my bulging crotch. She also took a firm, full squeeze of my pulsing man-meat. I was so horny I hoped that she would reach in my Speedo and give me a hand-job.
"Randy sweetie, I'm SO glad you are using the pool. I can see that you're REALLY enjoying it! You could swim in the nude if you want to...but in that suit you almost ARE! How very, VERY nice! This is Paolo, our resident fitness/underwear model!"
Paolo could have stepped out of a fashion magazine. We were overall the same age, size and height. Both of us were muscular but Paolo was ripped to the extreme. He was wearing loose sweatpants, so I couldn't compare our 'equipment'. Whereas I was the ultimate blond California beach boy, he was swarthier, more hirsute and a bit more ethnic; like a statue of a Roman god.
"Hey, Paolo, it's nice to meet another neighbor. How's it goin'?"
For an underwear model, Paolo seemed a bit sheepish and shy.
"Um...it's cool. Uh...nice to meet you, I gotta go help Vera with...something. See you around."
With that they both went into Vera's studio. I swam a few more laps and decided I should see what I could do about dinner. As I walked past Vera's studio windows I saw Paolo and her inside. Doesn't this woman believe in curtains? Paolo was completely nude. I could see why he was an underwear model. His ass was perfect. It took me a minute to recognize the pose that Paolo was emulating. It was Michelangelo's David. Well, Paolo certainly had that classic Italian look although he was more defined than the David, and certainly better hung! His cock was long, uncut, and very thick. It was resting comfortably on Vera's cleavage. My landlady certainly likes them young and hung! Even I was impressed.
There were several patches of different colors on Paolo's torso. Vera seemed to be trying different kinds of body paint or make-up. The expression on her face indicated displeasure. Occasionally, as she stared at the colors and textures she was applying, she would run her fingers along the rigid shaft of Paolo's cock. This was the second of my neighbors I had seen getting such attention from Vera. I wondered if and when my turn would come. I stuck my hand inside my bulging Speedo and began to stroke the swollen shaft, wishing that my cock was the one resting against Vera's breasts, leaking pre-cum on to her luscious mounds.
Paolo caught sight of me at the window. Unlike Axel, who seemed to get a kick out of being watched with Vera, Paolo seemed embarrassed. He also noticed my hard-on. He sighed, shrugged, closed his eyes and let Vera continue with her task. She tested and re-tested the body paint while stroking Paolo's thick dick in earnest. I stood there, mesmerized. These blatantly sexual exhibitions were making me crazy horny. I got back to my bungalow, stripped off my Speedo, grabbed my cock and started to crank one out. I noticed the time. I had too much to do before my Zoom meeting with Jane and Ted to sit around jacking off. My cock would have to wait for some attention.
I washed up and had some dinner. I was nervous about the meeting. I was enjoying the job. I liked working from home. I wanted the steady paycheck and benefits. I would have thought a simple email message would be enough to tell me if my watermark destruct idea was feasible or not. I put on a nice, business-like Polo shirt. I was about to put on a nice pair of dressy shorts when the computer signaled that the Zoom meeting was ready to start. I was naked from the waist down but I wanted to log in to the meeting right away. I was sitting down, so Jane and Ted wouldn't be able to see my lower body.
Jane seemed to be alone. She looked different. She wasn't wearing glasses. She had on a very snug blouse that looked like silk; it was unbuttoned far enough to show some very ample cleavage. This was not what I had expected to see at a business meeting. My cock, which had been hard to semi-hard all day, was soon fully erect and throbbing for attention. I prayed my boss wouldn't notice that I was sexually aroused by the sight of her.
"Hi Randy! First let me say that I've had glowing reports from your team leader. The work on the photo app is coming along beautifully. Your suggestion on how to deal with the watermark problem was inspired. We may well pursue that course!"
"Thank you, Jane. I really like my job, and the other coders are really fun to work with."
"Wonderful. That's what Ted and I like to hear. Now, as to the reason for this private meeting. As you may recall we mentioned that there was another division called X-treme. Only the employees who show the most promise and have the right attitude are given the chance to work on projects in this division."
"Um...that sounds really interesting. I'm all ears."
Actually I was not all ears. It must have been warm at Jane's location because I noticed a bit of sweat trickling down between her breasts. I subtly grabbed my cock to keep it from jerking around. I desperately wanted to jack off. I also wondered where Ted was. Before she spoke again I thought I noticed Jane gasp ever so slightly.
"The projects from X-treme involve some very nice bonuses on top of your regular salary. Randy, I'm going to ask you a series of questions. If at any time you find something inappropriate please let me know immediately and the interview will cease. Being chosen, or not chosen for X-treme has no bearing on your regular job. X-treme just provides an...interesting...extra."
The alarm bells in my head were giving me a flashback to my experiences with FD Corp. I found myself squeezing my cock while staring at the sweat on her breasts.
"That sounds good Jane."
"Excellent. Do you have any objections to dealing with erotic adult materials? If not, do you have any experiences with so-called adult sex toys?"
"Umm...I do know what those things are...I have had...umm...some experience."
Pre-cum had begun leaking from my piss slit.
"Fine. We have a line of sex toys for both men and women and we are hoping to create electronic enhancements to make them more 'hi-tech'. Would you be uncomfortable working with such products?"
