I was surprised when the video tumbled out from the back of the video cabinet. I know that sounds strange, after all aren't video cabinets the place you'd expect to find a video? But it was hidden behind the sex videos we had collected. It was in a bright green box, one I hadn't seen before, so I knew right away that you must have put it there. So of course I slipped it into the video player to see what was on it. Maybe I shouldn't have, perhaps I should have called you to ask you what was on it. But I didn't, I just went ahead and watched it.
Had you been down the hall in the study, then I would have asked you. But you weren't, you were away with work again. Which was why I was fishing around amongst our porn collection in the first place. You'd been away for a week, I was horny and was going to watch some porn and relieve my tensions. So I found it. It wasn't until some time later that I realised that your chosen hiding place was quite deliberately selected. That you had realised that I would be looking there, looking for a tape when I was horny and alone. Clever I suppose.
So I sat on the coffee table and flicked it on, saw static and was about to hit the fast forward switch when the static vanished and was replaced with a close-up of you. You were standing only a foot or so from the camera, then you stepped back and smiled into it. You looked great, dressed to kill in your best going out clothes, gold mesh top, black pants, high black shoes. Our bed was behind you, and I realised that the camera had to be sitting on the dresser. The bed was the centre of the on screen image, and I smiled as I realised that this tape may be far better than the one I had intended to watch. I moved to the couch and loosened my pants, settling against the cushions.
You turned to the bed and pulled back the doona, dropping it onto the floor in a neat stack at the foot of the bed. You pulled the sheet back and then looked across at the camera. A slight frown flickered across your face and you walked towards me, filling the screen again and I could see your arm reach out behind the camera as though you were adjusting something. You looked satisfied with whatever it was you had done and with another wink you left the room.
I sat watching the empty room, nothing happening and wondered if that was it. Had you started to make an electronic letter for me, been interrupted and left it for another time? Perhaps that was why the tape was hidden, perhaps it wasn't finished yet and I wasn't supposed to see it. I hit the fast forward button, and finally after ten minutes you reappeared. You weren't alone. He was tall and rangy, snug fitting jeans, expensive looking brown leather boots that tapered to a fine point. He wore a crisp white long sleeved shirt which accented his deep tan. He appeared clean shaven yet his dark hair and eyebrows seemed to give him an unshaven look. His hair was pulled back into a pony tail and hung between his shoulders.
You didn't look over at the camera and my stomach jumped as I realised that it was hidden. You had been adjusting - well, whatever it was that you were using to hide the camera. I felt a stab of jealousy as he leaned towards you and you tilted your head back to offer him your lips. His mouth was gentle, lips parting just a small amount as you kissed. His arms slipped around you and caressed your bare back, the movement of his hands pulling slightly at the glo-mesh top and making small pearls of golden light dance around the room, bouncing from the walls and ceiling.
Your hand reached down and pulled his hips against you, your fingers kneading the firm buttocks under the denim. His mouth opened more and I saw his tongue dart forward wetly, then your mouths were pressed firmly together, his hand dropping to cup your buttocks. His fingers were long and almost delicate, his hands large and they covered the whole of each of your cheeks. Unable to tear my eyes away I felt my erection growing and I had to adjust my seating position to regain my comfort.
Your hand had slipped between your bodies and they pulled at the front of his shirt, then the back, until it was untucked and hung loosely. Your hands disappeared under the white material and I could imagine them stroking his stomach. Slowly your fingers unbuttoned his shirt, starting at the bottom, revealing a strong stomach and chest which you stroked, then leaned forward to kiss.
His hands had moved up to your back again and were stroking the flesh of your back. I watched, as he did, looking down at you, as you opened his shirt to reveal his small brown nipple, then your tongue flicked forward and touched it. I saw his eyes close as your tongue ran around and over it, working it into a hard peak. Your teeth gleamed whitely as they gently closed on it, nipping him playfully and I watched as his fingers dug a little deeper into your back.
His fingers ran upwards, through your short hair, feeling its spiky line across the top of your neck, then his fingers found and gripped the bow which held your top in place. He hesitated as though waiting for your permission, and with a smile you turned your back to him, allowing him to loosen the tie. You were facing the camera now, standing at the end of the bed, but still your eyes made no contact with the lens. To me, the audience, it was as though you had forgotten that I was there.
