I live alone in a small bungalow on the way out of town. I have a lover, Tina, who visits as often as she can, but because she's married that's not as often as I would like. Strangely her husband knows about us, but because I'm also a woman he doesn't seem to mind, thinking perhaps that if he doesn't make too big a deal out of her bi tendencies she won't have any excuse to up sticks and leave him. I'm not bi, I'm uncomplicatedly gay. Men don't do it for me at all. Tried it - just to make sure - didn't like it, and I've got no use for the tee shirt.
Next door, in an identical little single story home, live a young couple in their early twenties. They had only recently moved in at the time of this story and I hadn't got to know them very well yet, although she was the sort of petite blonde that I wouldn't mind getting to know very well indeed. He was friendly enough, but she was reserved to put it mildly, speaking only when she absolutely had too and then as briefly as possible. I'd reluctantly come to the conclusion that she suspected I was a lesbian and was suffering from an attack of chronic homophobia. Some people are like that, anything a bit different gives them the creeps, but I've got used to it in the thirty-four years I've inhabited this earth and I just ignore it. Shame, but that's the way it is, and each to their own.
Anyway, on the day that this story really starts Tina and I were sprawled side by side in bikinis on a blanket in the back yard, just enjoying the sun and a couple of beers. We were holding hands as we often did, but other than that we weren't actually doing anything. But then Tina leaned over and whispered something to me.
'Don't look now, but we're being watched.' She announced. 'That new girl next door is spying on us.
My eyes scanned around without my turning my head, but I couldn't see anything. 'Where?'
'Look at their garden shed; she's in there watching out of the window.'
Now I could see her, standing stock-still a little way back from the window and thinking she couldn't be seen, but there was no mistaking that she was spying on us, presumably trying to find out for sure what mine and Tina's relationship really was.
I smiled to myself. 'I think she's waiting to see if we get up to anything.'
'Then let's give her something to watch.' Tina suggested. 'Pretend we haven't seen her and give me a kiss.'
I didn't need much of an excuse to kiss Tina, I'll do that anytime. We leaned towards each other and kissed, and then kissed again, and again. Soon we were snogging properly, lips and tongues doing their stuff, and I was beginning to get turned on. I reached across and pushed my hand down the front of Tina's bikini top to fondle her breast and especially her nipple. Tina had great nipples, long and rubbery and just right for sucking. Should I, I wondered? Why the hell not, I answered. I reached around her and unhooked her top, pushing it out of the way and lowering my mouth to her breast.
'Oh you bastard.' Tine whispered. 'You know we haven't time for that, I've got to go soon.'
I knew that, but right just then I didn't care a great lot. I'd started out intending to worry my neighbour but by then I'd forgotten all about her.
Tina put her hand on my shoulder and pushed. 'No, pack it in. I've got to go to work and I want to be able to concentrate.'
Very reluctantly I backed away, my tongue almost hanging out as I watched her hide those beautiful breasts of hers.
'Now look what you've done to that poor girl.' Tina giggled.
That was when I remembered why we'd kissed in the first place. The neighbour was still in the shed watching out of the window, but now a rhythmic movement of her shoulder betrayed what her hand was doing out of sight.
'Come on, let's go in and leave her to play in peace.' I suggested.
'She'll only think we've gone inside to finish what we started.'
'Well, let her.' I said, getting to my feet. 'Anyway, maybe we will.'
'And maybe we won't. I'm out of here in ten minutes.'
We didn't, and she was out of there in ten minutes, and I have no idea if our watcher finished her mission either. Not the most satisfactory day for any of us really.
But if that day wasn't so good, a couple of days later it got more interesting. It was another hot and sunny day and I was sunbathing again, this time on my own. My neighbour was out too and from time to time I could see her casting quick glances over the fence. I was beginning to think that maybe, just maybe, my original diagnosis had been wrong. Maybe she wasn't so homophobic, maybe she was just hiding deep in her own closet. Now that could be interesting, after all she was a good looking girl. I decided to test out the water a bit.
Before you start thinking I'm an unfaithful bastard who ought to remember she already has a lover, I should explain that because Tina is a married woman with a foot in both camps, she appreciates that what we have can be neither permanent nor exclusive. She knows that the relatively small amount of time she can spend with me is unlikely to be enough and she understands that I do occasionally look elsewhere.
Anyway, back to the story. What I decided to do was to indulge in a little nude sunbathing and maybe a little finger play, and see if it sparked a reaction one way or the other. I thought that if she really was homophobic she'd disappear back into the house like a rabbit going down its burrow. If she wasn't, then we'd see what happened.
The only thing I kept on was my sunglasses, and I only kept them on so that I could keep a look out without anyone knowing which way I was watching. Other than that I was soon laid out flat on my back and totally naked. I'd arranged myself at an angle so that only someone near the bottom of next door's back garden, including their garden shed, would be able to see anything meaningful. That way I figured that if she turned up there, then she was deliberately trying to get an eyeful and was definitely a possible for my team. I didn't mind the idea of her getting an eyeful, I'm a bit exhibitionistic and I knew it would simply turn me on.
I couldn't see anything of my young neighbour when I lay down, but I parted my legs anyway and began to play. I wasn't really masturbating, more just feeling myself, running a couple of fingertips up and down my slit and rubbing softly at my clitoris while scanning the horizon for my hoped for audience. It was quietly exciting in a strange sort of way to be deliberately displaying my body in the hope that she would want to see it, and getting pleasure out of doing it. But after a good ten or fifteen minutes there had been no sign and I was beginning to think my first opinion had been correct and I'd just frightened her indoors. I was also considering if I should give up and go in myself or carry on and give myself a genuine seeing to, but before I could make up my mind I caught a quick movement in her garden shed. My heart leapt and I automatically spread my legs a little wider and began playing as if I meant it.
She was there all right, standing further back than before, almost hidden in the dark of the interior. In fact if she hadn't moved I probably would never have seen her. But now I had seen her I kept made sure I kept her in sight, even though I was busy rubbing my clit more vigorously than before. At first all I could see was her outline, but as my eyes grew accustomed to the dimness of the shed I began to distinguish more detail, detail that gave me a jolt of pure lust. She was watching me through binoculars, with one hand holding them to her eyes and the other pushed into her top, massaging her breasts. I stretched my legs wider to make sure she had a good view and deliberately pushed two fingers up inside myself.
