I have this room in my basement that doesn't get used very often. It is a fourth bedroom in my house, and as such it contains a bed, a desk, a light, a couple electrical outlets etc. I guess you could call it a "guest room". Mostly we use our guest room as kind of a store room. It's where we store stuff that has no place in our day to day lives, but has value or may become important enough to use eventually.
I only occasionally go in there when I need something, otherwise I leave it largely alone.
Earlier this fall, I made plans to host my cousin for Christmas - she was going to come out on Christmas Eve and stay for a couple days.
As Christmas approached we got the house cleaned up. My husband tackled the upstairs, the kids tidied their rooms and I worked on the main floor.
One of the other tasks I had assigned to myself was to prepare the guest room for my cousin.
I went into the room expecting to see a huge mess, and was pleasantly surprised to see it was tidy. It had been roughly 5 months since I'd been in here, but the room was in better shape than I expected: items were stored neatly on the shelves, no toys littering the floor, and no layers of dust or cobwebs. Even the bed was made!
It struck me as a bit odd that this room was tidier than our bedroom, but I didn't dwell on it. I figured that it's been a long time since I've been in here and maybe my hubby cleaned it for me at some point.
Since I'm the one who does laundry, I know it's been almost a year since the sheets in here were cleaned (I had done them after my cousin's last Christmas visit) so I started stripping the bed. That's when I found the evidence.
The sheets smelled a bit funky, like stale sex fluids, and I noticed semen stains, and even a bit of blood. I hadn't bled on these sheets, and my husband and I had not had sex down here in ages (not since the kids were really little). These stains had to have gotten there after last January!
My brain was spinning and my blood was boiling as I started looking around the room for... What exactly I wasn't sure. Something. Anything. All I knew is that I needed to find something to fling in my husband's face. The housework was forgotten. I knew the truth now (or thought I did) and I wanted to nail the bastard.
That's when I found our old nanny cam tucked away on one of the shelves, in amongst assorted computer peripherals. It was running (I could see the red light blinking) and it was pointed at the bed.
I removed it from its hiding place and traced its cable up and over the shelf, down the floor and around to the controller box that was sitting on the top shelf of the closet.
I remember buying this several years ago when the kids were younger so that we could monitor any babysitters we hired to look after the kids. I had helped him hook it up at the time, so I had no trouble in powering it down and removing the External hard drive it recorded onto.
I made my way upstairs in a daze. The hubby was out Christmas shopping with the kids and would be gone for a couple more hours still. I grabbed the laptop and retreated to our room, closing the door behind me.
I turned on the laptop and inserted the USB cable into the hard drive. I browsed the card and found 6 movie files ranging in size including one from today and one from last Tuesday and a couple from last month.
I opened the one from today and watched the video in on the computer's media player. It was a little under 2 hours long and nothing was happening on the screen: the bed was in view but other than that nothing was happening. I skipped ahead to near the end and suddenly, there I was cleaning the room. I realized that my husband had set this up this morning before he went shopping, so of course there would be nothing on here.
I went back to explorer and clicked on the much larger file from last Tuesday. Again I was treated to the sight of the bed in our guest room. Suddenly my husband was in frame, tidying up a few toys and straightening the sheets. Then he left.
I skipped the video ahead 3 hours and was treated to the same boring sight of the bed. I was beginning to think that there was nothing to it - just my imagination. For the hell of it, I skipped ahead another couple hours and my heart sank. There was Phil fucking some woman from behind!
I backed up the video about 20 minutes - again it was Phil sitting on the bed with the woman, still fully clothed. His hand was stroking her thigh. I couldn't see who she was due to the angle of the camera and her body position. I was furious. I wanted to find out who this slut was who dared to fuck my husband in my house!
I backed up the video another 15 minutes. The room was empty. Ahead 2 minutes. Ahh there we go. I could see Phil's foot in the corner. He was advancing towards the bed. He was still clothed from work (he is a librarian). She walked into frame but her face wasn't visible yet. There was no sound on the recording, but it seemed obvious that Phil was giving her a tour as he pointed something out on the shelf.
Phil sat down on the bed and a moment later, patted the seat beside him. She hesitated, then joined him on the bed and I got my first good look at her. My god, she was a teenager! If she had seen more than 19 birthdays I would have eaten my hat.
She looked young, nervous and vulnerable. But she was gorgeous! She was tall and skinny, with long dirty blonde hair that was pulled into a loose ponytail. She was wearing a thigh-length skirt, knee-highs, a loose sweater and glasses. The backpack completed the schoolgirl look.
She sat beside my husband, shooting him glances occasionally as he was speaking, but mostly she stared at her hands, folded tightly in her lap.
I don't know what he was saying, but I could see him gesturing and looking stern. Then he put his hand on her thigh. She sat rigidly and he began to stroke it. I was horrified because I knew what was going to happen, but I was also somewhat aroused by what I was witnessing.
