Chapter 1 - Meet
Never been on Eurostar before and the English landscape looks so splended from a train. But I'm getting ahead of myself, probably should begin at the beginning, as David Copperfield said.
Factual stuff: 4o year old lesbian who came out...well never really came out, just had the odd encounter with other girls. After leaving school worked in an insurance company till I was 30 then spent the next 10 years taking care of my elderly mother who passed away last year.
So I've led a somewhat quiet and uneventful life with the only personal highlights being a series of brief and rather unfullfilling relationships. Dear mumsy passed away last year but whilst I was a long term, full time carer I made a lot of friends online. Some were others like myself in the full time caring role, others being lesbians looking for some sort of contact.
Can't remember the name of the chatroom or forum where I met one of my closest acquaintances, Beatrice. She lives in Germany and the same age as me. A gal with a great sense of humour, rather flirty and slighty naughty. I found this character of Beatrice a wonderful distraction when the task of caring left me drained and weary.
Beatrice commiserated sincerely when mumsy died and I was torn between grief and a relief it was all over, for her as well as me since she was not suffering anymore. Now a year later I was beginning to get myself back on my feet, the repairs and various necessary improvements had been done to the house and Beatrice invited me over to Germany to stay.
Well naturally I jumped at the chance and it wasn't long before my new passport arrived through the door and I had booked my ticket. Bags packed and with only a slight, well maybe quite a large, expectation of a close and hopefully intimate relationship in the very near future I called a taxi for the station.
Oh this all sounds rather boring and routine, doesn't it. Suppose it is really, just trying to set the scene as a contrast to my life up until that time. I was really very excited just to be travelling and getting away from the rather confined situation I'd been in for so long. But it was the thought of spending time with someone I already knew which was reassuring as I'm quite insecure emotionally and a holiday in another country on my own seemed rather too much for me yet.
So to cut all the supplementary waffle I arrived at Beatrice' house in MΓ€dchenhaft Strasse. She answered the door and I saw the woman in the many pictures she had sent me. So many people post overly flattering pictures of themselves online but hers were honest and I saw in front of me the exact person of whom I had become so fond. Hoping she felt the same about me and that I had been just as open with her.
Beatrice was friendship and hospitality itself, she made coffee while I relaxed in her very well appointed town house and we just chatted for a few hours until lunch. This was really two women getting to know each other face to face after so long a period of communicating online. Any subject from the weather to the price of stockings.
We lunched in a delightful bistro in town and spent the afternoon walking along the canal before dining at her fav restaurant. Coffee and soft music made the evening special and we said goodnight and each retired to our rooms. I quickly fell asleep feeling happy and refreshed in the company of a wonderful friend.
Next day was similar, spending most of the day being shown the sights and highlights of the lovely small town where she lived. Beatrice asked me to help her prepare dinner and afterward we sat down very contentedly in one of those silent but relaxed atmospheres where no one feels awkward or obliged to speak just to fill a gap.
I had just relaxed even more into that lovely floaty state when Beatrice put on some soft jazz and after a while she walked to my seat, took my hand and pulled me to my feet. I loved the initiative she took and we danced slowly in a light embrace and for the first time I began to wonder if this was when things might happen.
Another intermission here, time for physical descriptions. I know that what really counts is who we are inside but a lot of attraction starts with external appearances and our bodies are the potential cause of so much pleasure.
So who first, Beatrice I think: She's forty years old, have I said that already? About 5'3" and medium build and boobs. Gorgeous silver grey hair and a delightful wiggle when she wants to tease. Added to this a wicked smile and a very naughty streak underneath.
As for me, a bit taller at 5'6" and definitely a curvy figure with full boobs and hips. Not fat, I've always exercised, but certainly tending toward the more well endowed end of the spectrum. As for personality I'm basically demure and my innocent face looks out from under brown shoulder length hair.
Oh yes, so back to the smoochies. We slowly moved round the room, holding each other lightly. The first kiss was natural, two people who are obviously attracted showing affection and it just carried on from there.
We made our way to the bedroom and explored each others bodies, with breaks for the toilet and to change the music, some more drinks and snacks. I was laying on my back and Beatrice slowly ran her fingers over my body till she reached my nipples, which are incredibly sensitive and the center of my sensuality. My sharp intake of breath made her smile and I'm sure she made a mental note of that particular area.
