This is the second part of the story.
Again, it's a slow burn. If you have not read part 1, I would suggest you do.
There is fetish content - if that's not your thing, please move on to something that is more to your taste.
Sitting on the train back to London, I promised myself that I would not hold regrets about my time with Sara ending. I had much to cherish, not least of which was that I'd scratched the itch about having sex with a woman - it had been amazing! I'd also discovered that being submissive to a partner was extremely satisfying!
In my bag were two temptations, the memory stick and Lauren's note with her contact details on. I had no doubt that I would give in to the temptation to watch the contents of the memory stick, but I needed to buy a decent vibrator. What to do about Lauren was more difficult. Sara and she would talk, perhaps Sara might even tell Lauren to keep away from me.
I also had no reason to contact Lauren now Sara and I were finished.... but Lauren was not only beautiful she was, as Sara had said..."dangerous". I was intrigued by that and needed to think what to do. There was no hurry.

At home, I found living with my parents, even for a few days, difficult. After three years away at Uni, the family home felt stifling, and privacy limited.
After a week, I packed up my things, moved into my cousin Nigel's flat, and prepared to start work. I had a room in the basement of his attractive villa in Maida Vale with its own bathroom and access to the garden. I felt extremely fortunate. The best thing of all was Nigel spent a chunk of his time at his country cottage in mid Wales, so at weekends, the house was effectively mine.
He set a competitive rent and gave me a short list of Do's and Dont's and that was all.
The warm weather of July had given way to a wet early August. I joined a gym, and my father fixed up my old bicycle as the Toyota failed its MOT and had to be scrapped. I didn't think about Sara, Lauren or even look at the memory stick. I was so busy everything else slipped to the back of my mind.
My first three weeks at work were a whirlwind of induction, meetings and a couple of social dos. I was expected in the office every day except Friday unless I was doing research, when I could work from home.

The first Saturday in September I went to meet one of my old Uni housemates at the Tate Modern. Linda was down for the weekend and suggested we meet for lunch. I walked to the tube; it was a bright sunny day. I'd put on my new white wrapround skirt, a black top and carried my denim jacket.
I stopped at a coffee shop to get a bagel. I joined the queue to get served. There was a young woman ahead of me, her blonde hair cut to a short blunt bob. It was when she turned with her coffee cup in her hand that I first saw her face. I knew in a second it was Victoria, the girl off the video...
The hair was very different, but the face was the same, as was her light build and delicate features. It was Victoria, I was certain of it.
I was distracted when the guy behind the counter asked me what I wanted, when I turned round having made my purchases, she was gone...
As I left the shop, I looked up and down the street, but disappointingly she was nowhere to be seen.
I made my way down to the station, wondering whether she might also catch a tube. I scanned the platform. I'd only seen her momentarily, but she was I thought wearing a white blouse, black skirt and pantyhose and a black jacket. There was no one on the platform dressed the same way. Then as the train pulled in, I saw someone emerge from behind two others at the far end of the platform. It was her...
I dashed down the platform, the train doors opened, she got on, and as the doors started to close, I reached the same carriage.
She sat down. There was an empty seat beside her...
"Just made it," I said as I sat down, trying to sound nonchalant. She smiled at me, and I smiled back. Her eyes were the palest blue...
The train started to move. I sat thinking how I might engage her conversation but realised that it was not going to be easy. No one talks on tube trains, especially when they're not busy.
It was as we approached Paddington that fate lent a hand. I wasn't really watching her, so I didn't see what I happened, but as she went to drink from her cup the train rattled over some points and jolted her. The first I really saw of the accident was her coffee cup slipping from her hand and landing in my lap.
The heat from the coffee that spilt was enough to make me jump, and then the lid came off the coffee and the remaining contents ended up in my lap too.
"Oh my God," Victoria squealed when she saw what had happened.
The hot coffee had covered my skirt. I was slightly scalded, but apart from that the only hurt was to my pride.
Victoria reached into her bag and pulled out a tissue. It was completely inadequate; I was wet through.
"I'm so sorry," she wailed. "That was dead clumsy of me."
"Not to worry," I replied as calmly as I could. "These things happen." I fetched a couple of tissues from my bag to try and mop the worst of the mess up. Victoria dabbed my skirt too, but it made little difference.
"I'm really sorry, your skirt looks ruined. You must let me buy you a new one."
"I'm not sure it's that bad," I replied. "I may be able to get it to wash out."
"But it won't, you know it won't. Coffee is very hard to remove. Listen, I'm not sure where you are getting off, but let me give you my phone number. If you can buy a new skirt, I'll happily pay for it." She reached into her bag and pulled out a scrap of paper and a pen. She then wrote her name, address and phone number on it, tore the paper in half and gave it to me. The words Victoria Sanders were all I needed to see.
"And you are?"
I gave her my name address and phone number.
"We're near neighbours Jane. You live about three streets away."
"Really? Well fancy that."
Shortly afterwards, the train slowed down at Baker Street, and I needed to change. I told Victoria who said she was going to Oxford Circus.
"Please ring me when you know how much it cost to replace your skirt, Jane."
"Yes of course I will."
"Perhaps I could treat you to a glass of Prosecco for your trouble?"
"There's no need., really. I'll be in touch."
"Thank you, and once again I'm so sorry..."
The train stopped and I alighted.
As I stood on the platform deliberating whether to go on to the Tate or go back home to change, I realised what a good day it had been...
***
The decision about whether to go home and change or whether to meet Linda looking rather dishevelled was a simple one. I went as I was. Linda thought the whole thing was hilarious, but she was not particularly dress conscious. A t shirt jeans and cardigan were here normal garb and that day was no different.
After our visit to the Tate we went our separate ways, she to a concert on Clapham Common and me to Oxford Circus to buy a new skirt and look for a good vibrator...
