Part 1 - Fear and Pleasure
You'd be forgiven for thinking that it was weird, wanting to join a cult. Truth was, I didn't know that I wanted to join until I met someone who really wanted in. It ended up being the best decision of my life. Even though humanity seemed enlightened in many ways, for those of us that were Gay, Lesbian Bi or Transsexual, life was hard, we were frowned upon, abused and had no protection from the law, which had abandoned us with the rise of the right.
If you wanted to follow your true lifestyle then you needed to be very, very discreet or, you join one of the communities that were segregated and tolerated where you could be with others of the same sexuality. Like all teenagers, assuming that I was smart and independent, I figured that I'd explore my sexuality on the quiet. I'd not allow myself to be caught and all would work out OK.
As a teenager, I had lots of boyfriends, but they never really did it for me. I found girls attractive and soon accepted that I was Bi. Eventually, at 19, after craving the attention of a woman for quite a few years, I had my first experience. I was drunk, of course, and leaving a bar after a night out with some friends, I was intending to walk home. An older woman left at the same time as us and, after I'd bid farewell to my friends and begun to walk, caught up with me just around the first corner. Her name was Nicole, I found out later that she was 45 years old. She asked if she could walk with me and, as it was the early hours of morning and she seemed friendly, I said yes.
We got talking as we walked through the city streets which were full of drunk people like us heading home. I couldn't help but admire her, even though she was much older than me, she was sexy, fit and looked great in her tight jeans, boots and check shirt, the back of which was hidden by her long flowing blonde hair. The shirt strained at the front over her large breasts which put my little ones to shame.
We'd walked a good way towards my apartment when two cute girls walked past us in the opposite direction, I stared at them as they passed, briefly looking over my shoulder. Nicole laughed at me and whispered. "You like girls?"
Even though I was drunk, I was a little surprised and stammered my reply as well as feeling my face redden. I'd never confessed that to anyone. It could have even been dangerous. "Urr, no, not really, I like boys. I've never thought of women like that."
Nicole stopped walking and grabbed my arm gently making me turn to face her. She was giggling, drunkenly. "I know you like girls honey, I've been watching you all night, staring at them as they walked around the bar. It's OK honey, I like them too, especially cute ones. Don't worry, I won't tell anyone."
I was so young and naive that I didn't really realise that Nicole was hitting on me. I nodded at her. "I suppose some girls are cute, but that's it, I'm not a Lesbian or anything."
Nicole laughed again and dropped the subject and we continued to walk. We began to discuss how unfair it was that if you were Lesbian then you could not be free to be open about it. By now the effects of the alcohol were wearing off a little but I was still not tired. Nicole suggested that we stop at her apartment which was on the next block and we could drink some vodka and listen to music.
Since I liked my newfound friend, I agreed, and we walked around the last block and entered the main door to the apartment block. It was dark and quite run down, much like my place but we climbed the stairs to the second floor where Nicole let us into her home. It was basic but seemed clean and smelled fresh. The blinds were closed in the living room and Nicole told me to sit on the sofa.
I dumped my bag beside me and sat on one end of the huge leather sofa while Nicole logged into her computer and began playing some chill out tunes. She left the room for a few minutes before returning with a bottle of Vodka and 2 glasses. We chatted for an hour or more, drinking, getting even more drunk. She was great company, but it wasn't long before the subject of lesbians came up again.
Nicole was hot, it was a humid night and she released the top two buttons on her shirt, exposing the top of her cleavage. I was, feeling a little horny like I always did when alone with a woman and I found myself staring into the void between her breasts. I think I'd even stopped listening to her.
"You like what you see there?" She asked in between laughs.
"Oh, shit, I'm sorry." I said, looking away from her.
She slid across the sofa and put her hand on my thigh. "It's OK honey, don't worry. I'm just teasing you."
I nodded without looking at her and took a gulp of the Vodka, I suddenly felt embarrassed and had obviously betrayed all my denials from earlier in the evening.
Her hand slightly squeezed my thigh through the denim of my jeans as she said. "Have you ever been with a woman, honey?" Her voice suddenly much quieter.
I shook my head, "No."
Nicole began to stroke my leg and she reached around me with her other arm and began to stroke my hair softly. It was at this moment that I understood why she'd caught up with me as we left the bar.
"Would you like to be with a woman?"
