The mall was quiet as I strolled past the numerous storefronts. It was early morning and I had the day off work so being a woman who likes to shop, I decided to indulge myself. I was shopping for something particular today however, with the idea of seducing my boyfriend when her returned from his work trip to London.
As I walked past the stores I caught several men glancing my way, no doubt trying to undress me with their eyes. I'm an American by birth and whilst not in any ways 'stunning', as I've heard British men describe women, I'd settled for being described as the 'girl next door' type. I don't dress in any way to attract male eyes. Take today for example. I'm dressed in a blue strappy top and black ankle length skirt, and you can just about make out my black leather sandals, complete with freshly painted toenails. I guess the sight of some exposed fresh is enough to set some guys off ha? Oh, and just for the record, I have 36C breasts, black shoulder length hair, I'm the proud owner of an amazing vibrator (which probably gives away the answer to the question many men wonder, 'Does she masturbate?') and no, I don't fantasise about having a threesome with my best friend being the 'extra' party. I'm Bethany by the way (okay, it's short for Elizabeth, which I hate).
I came over to Britain to do my masters degree in British history and some how I ended up staying. I ended up becoming a journalist and now I've been in Britain for the past eight years. Three of these have been spent with Scott, my boyfriend, who I met whilst waiting for a friend to arrive for coffee in one of those American style coffee dens you have over here. I was the lucky recipient of some of his cappuccino as it spilled over the sides of his cup. He apologised profusely, which I accepted because somebody had knocked his arm and it wasn't Scott's fault. We became engaged in a conversation until my friend arrived and we swapped numbers and the rest they say is memories.
Scott has been in London for the past three nights and I'm expecting him home sometime around 11 p.m. today. Of course, in his absence I have had to rely upon the aforementioned vibrator to provide me with my sexual fulfilment but now I'm desperate to feel Scott inside me. The idea of buying lingerie was to encourage him to fuck me as soon as he walks through the door, not that he needs the encouragement.
I entered what seems to be the best lingerie store that you guys have on these shores, La Senza, and proceeded to lose myself in the lace, silks and satins that were hanging so teasingly in the store. I say teasingly because if a man were to walk in with his wife/fiancΓ©/girlfriend then it would surely blow his mind to think of her dressed in anything in the store. Surprisingly though, I feel the same, because if you see something sexy it's impossible to not let your mind fast forward to the time when your husband/fiancΓ©/boyfriend sees you dressed in that item and immediately wants to make passionate love to you!
I spent some time looking over the various types of matching sets in all the different colours. It was a little while before the sales assistant came over.
"Hi there, can I help you at all?" she said, a wide smile on her face. I glanced down at her name badge and saw that, Chloe, was the assistant manager.
"Yes, if you could," I replied, thinking that she would know what lingerie suits which people and which is sexy.
"Oh, your American." she smiled at me.
"Yeah, from Boston, Mass."
"How cool. Is there anything in particular that you were looking for?"
"Well, I'm not sure, I don't have anything set in my mind." The truth was I didn't have anything set in my mind as I left home this morning, and I couldn't really come out with the line 'Oh, something that will send my boyfriend crazy!' to a total stranger.
"Okay, no problem. Is it for a particular occasion or, say, for work?"
'To fuck my boyfriend in,' that's the occasion I thought to myself. "A special occasion," I replied with this thought in my head, after all, special occasion could mean anything from a wedding to a graduation ball to fucking your boyfriend.
"Why don't I just show you a few things that I think would be suitable for a special occasion."
"Okay," I replied.
Chloe motioned for me to stay where I was as she went off around the store and collected items that she thought I'd be interested in. I watched as she went round the store, her long blonde hair flowing as she went. I'd guess she was about 25 and attractive with a slender body. Two minutes later and she was back, items in hand.
"What do you think of these?" She asked. "This is a really nice bra and brief set," she said holding up a fabulous looking set. "We've got his in lilac, white and blue as well as this black set."
"That gorgeous," I replied.
"Okay, why don't you hold onto what you like and then you can try them all on at the end," said Chloe, handing me the black bra and briefs.
Chloe then proceeded to show me the rest of the items that she had chosen; a white all-in-one body and various bra and matching panties.
I took the all-in-one body off Chloe and a rather nice blue bra and matching panties set but rejected the others.
"I don't know if you'd be interested in this but I picked it up because it's a favourite of mine."
