When Jenny rang me and asked me if I could sit for them because she and Van were going out for dinner and a show I couldn't believe my luck. I said yes like a shot, promising to be there early so that I could distract the kids while they got ready.
Jenny was nice and the kids are sweet, but Van is a real honey. I'm absolutely mad about him. He is totally, and I mean totally, perfect. I get warm just thinking about him and when he actually talks to be I get these little shivers running up and down my spine. He gave me a kiss on the cheek last time I was there as a thank you and I'll swear I was wet as I went home.
Van is tall and blonde and clever. He's really handsome, strong and fit. He's got what they call charisma, and his voice is like a rich dark honey. I could sit and listen to him talk for hours and not get bored.
I watch Van all the time when I'm sitting for him and Jenny. Oh, I'm not obvious about, God forbid, but I am always aware of where he is and what he's doing. I don't think he's noticed but if he has he's far too nice to say anything about it. He probably thinks I'm still just a kid.
I fronted up nice and early and took charge of the kids while Jenny and Van got ready. Then it was kisses all around and promises from the kids that they'd be good for Michelle, then Jenny and Van headed off for their night out.
The kids were as good as kids usually are. Little angels until they're crossed, and then look out. I kept on top of them, eventually getting them fed, bathed and into bed without too much bother. There were a couple of attempts to get out of bed again, but I squashed those without any trouble. It wasn't as though the little imps really expected to get away with it.
One nice thing about sitting for Jenny is that I have permission to use their computer and internet connection, and they've got a high speed connection. Far better than the one I've got at home. After the kids went down I was able to hop on and get onto Twitter and Facebook and chat with some friends.
It was nearly midnight when Jenny and Van arrived home. As soon as they strolled through the door I could see that they were happy. By happy I am referring to their state of inebriation as well as their general attitude. Not drunk, mind you. Not even tipsy. But they appeared to have taken on enough to be thoroughly relaxed.
Van winked at me and my heart gave a little jump and I smiled at him. Jenny gave a funny little laugh.
"Go on, Van," she said. "I dare you. It'll be fun."
"Underage, though," he murmured.
Jenny shook her head. "Eighteen," she said. "Just ask her."
They were both looking at me and it dawned on me that Van was wondering about my age.
"I'm eighteen," I assured him. "Have been for months. Why?"
"Just wanted to be sure," he said.
Van had settled down on the couch when he came in, and for some reason Jenny had taken one of the armchairs. I was still seated at the computer. While I watched Van gave Jenny a look, smiled and shrugged, and turned towards me.
"Come here for a moment, Michelle," he said, and that voice of his had me floating up out of my chair and moving towards him without me even having to think about it.
"Right," he said. "Now would you be so kind as to lift up the front of your dress?"
Gawd, I got wet just thinking of doing that, but what the hell? I looked over at Jenny to find her smiling and nodding her head in agreement. It was still a case of what the hell, but if Jenny didn't mind. . .
I reached down and lifted the hem of my skirt, showing off my legs, feeling squirmy inside and just a little embarrassed.
Van just shook his head.
"Not like that," he said. "Higher."
If I went any higher I'd be flashing my panties at him. I hesitated, thought 'why not' and hitched my dress higher.
Van seemed to consider me, looked and nodded to Jenny and then turned his attention back to me. He calmly reached out, took hold of my panties and lowered them. Not just a littler way. He took them right down to my ankles and then tapped my ankles to indicate I should step out of them.
I stepped out of them but I also let my dress fall back into place. Van promptly reminded me that I was supposed to be holding it up.
"But if I do that you'll see my, ah, my. . ." My voiced faltered out.
"That's OK, Michelle," said Jenny. "Go ahead and lift it."
I went ahead and lifted it again, blushing while I did so.
As soon as my dress was out of the road Van reached over and ran his hand gently over my mons, travelling down and between my legs to cup my mound and give it a soft squeeze.
Now I wasn't just slightly squirmy inside. I was feeling hot and wet. Van, my Van, was touching me intimately. I had another quick look at Jenny. She was smiling and seemed quite pleased and I couldn't understand it.
What I could understand was that I was standing there with no knickers and that Van had his hand resting on my vulva.
"Ah, what's going on?" I asked.
"Well, Michelle, we've noticed how you always watch Van, and I was curious to see how far you'd actually let him go. We're experimenting."
