It was the morning of her shoot. I donât know if the tension was getting to Kate but it was certainly getting to me. I had only managed a fitful sleep and was already showered and dressed before dawn. I was sitting on the terrace listening to the tide breaking on the shore a short distance away. As dawn began to break the intimidating murky shadows were revealed to be nothing more sinister than ornamental shrubs, the threatening shapes at the waterâs edge merely mangroves. In the half-light I ambled down to the waterâs edge. There is a tranquillity about a beach at this time of day. It would certainly be different once they commenced shooting in a few hours time. My thoughts turned to the film.
She had been sent the script a couple of days before we left. A husband, played by Tom and his wife, played by Colette are on holiday in Jamaica. They make love but subsequently have a big argument and she walks out on him. She goes to a bar where two men, played by Rudi and Wayne pick her up. Her husband goes out to look for her but instead finds a girl who is sunbathing alone on a deserted beach. That was Kateâs role. He shows her a picture of his wife and asks if she has seen her. She hasnât of course, but this being a porn film, she lets him fuck her by way of consolation! Later on Kate spots his wife and tells her that her husband is looking for her. The wife is very grateful and a girl on girl scene ensues. Finally the husband appears and it turns into a threesome. At the time it had seemed somewhat fanciful but now, having seen the other performers, it was all too real.
It was still not too late! She could still pull out. Of course theyâd be angry but so what. It didnât matter if sheâd had sex with Greg either. Well thatâs not true; it did matter to me, but at least whatever theyâd done together would have been private. What she was about to do was anything but. There could be no going back after today. I resolved to speak to her immediately. Well no, she wouldnât even be awake. I decided Iâd go and see her in an hour. I lay down on the cool firm sand and closed my eyes. The sound of the sea washing over the sand was very soothing.
âOh, itâs you, Joe. You had us all going there for a minute. We thought a dead body had been washed up!â I opened my eyes. One of the technicians was standing over me. I squinted as I looked up at him silhouetted against the bright sky. The sun was up and the beach was now a hive of activity as the crew prepared for the shoot. I looked at my watch. It was nine-thirty. Damn! There wasnât much time left. I quickly headed back to the villa.
I was walking down the passageway when I heard Jan say something and I stopped in my tracks. She was the bathroom but the door was open and the slightly reverberant sound carried to me quite clearly. âKateâs almost ready, Greg. Weâve only got to get her dressed. You didnât make it any easier for me by the way.â
âWhat do you mean?â
âShooting your load in her of course! You knew she was on set first thing this morning. Itâs a bit irresponsible to say the least. Youâd be the first to complain if anyone else did such a thing.â
âYes, I know, Jan. Iâm sorry, I shouldnât have done it. I just got carried away. Sheâs so nice and tight.â
She addressed him as if he were an errant child. âI think youâre getting worse as you get older, Greg.â
âYou might be right about that. Anyway you wonât forget what I said about her bikini top, will you, Jan? I want her tits to bounce when she walks. And youâll send her out as soon as sheâs ready, please.â
He came out of the bathroom and saw me. I thought for a moment that he was about to say something but he just nodded as he strode past.
The door was still open and I glanced in. Given the topic of their discussion, I was certainly not expecting to see Kate and I was more than a little surprised to find her sitting in a chair as Jan busied herself around her. On a tray next to her were numerous mascaras, eye shadows and lipsticks. âMorning all,â I volunteered. âHow are things going in there?â
âJan looked up. âMorning, Joe. Come in and see for yourself. I think our Kate is going to be a knockout, donât you?â She stepped back to scrutinise her handiwork.
Jan was not wrong. Kateâs make up was spot on, and had the impending shoot been for a cosmetics companyâs sales brochure, rather than for an adult film, it would have been no surprise. Her hair was perfect too, having for the most part been combed up, save for two strands that coiled down to the nape of her neck. Understated silver drop earrings completed the picture. The faded white housecoat she wore was the only indication that she was not yet ready to face the cameras.
âItâs time to get dressed now Kate. Iâll just get your outfit.â Jan hurried out.
âHow are you feeling?â My own mouth was dry.
âNervous as hell. Will you stay with me, Joe?â
âOf course I will. You can still pull out, you know.â
âI canât Joe. Look, this is just a job and Iâm being paid good money for it; money that Jamie desperately needs. It wonât alter anything between us; youâre the man I love.â
âI love you too, Kate.â
We could hear Jan and she reappeared carrying a hangar on which a blue bikini was clipped. Kate stood up and stepped out of the housecoat. Jan had been busy âdown thereâ as she put it and had depilated her pubis leaving a narrow triangle that started an inch above her opening and ran for maybe two inches. It was no more than an inch wide at the top. Although this hair had been cut quite short it still afforded a marked contrast to the freshly defoliated areas. A fine silver chain adorned her lower waist.
She stepped into the bikini bottoms and eased them up her legs. They were of the high cut variety, swooping down at the front to reveal as much as decency allowed, whilst the rear strip nestled between her cheeks, and flared out to full width at the top. Although her cleft was just about covered, it was nonetheless clearly delineated as the thin material clung to her like a second skin.
She leant forward and cupped her breasts in the bikini top. She fastened it and looked at herself in the mirror. I studied both the image in the mirror and the view from the rear. God, I was such a lucky man; this divine creature was my wife.
Just then Tom poked his head round the door.
âIs anyone else coming in?â Jan asked. âItâs getting like Piccadilly Circus in here.â
âI just popped in to see if everythingâsâŠâ He stopped when he saw his screen partner. âYou look fantastic, Kate. You really do.â
She smiled wanly at him, her nervousness clear for all to see
Tom attempted to reassure her. âI know you havenât done this before, Kate, but I have, and there is no need for you to worry about anything; youâll do just fine. All you have to do is to follow my lead. I wonât hurt you, I promise. I will make sure you are really wet before I put it in. And even then Iâll only go in a bit at a time just in case. You know our scene ends with a facial? I will try to miss your mouth with the first two or three spurts but I have to get it on your face because thatâs what the punters want. Please try and remember to keep your mouth open. And donât forget to smile at theâŠâ
She interrupted him. âI know what to do. Greg showed me a DVD. Anything else?â She seemed a bit curt but I think it was just the stress of the moment.
âThatâs it really. Oh, and good luck!â The next moment he was gone.
It is really difficult to describe my feelings at that time. I was on edge already but hearing my wife and Tom discussing their forthcoming fuck in such matter of fact tones was endangering my health. I had never known my heart to pound so.
The chance of an imminent heart attack was made no less likely when Jan next spoke. âAll right my dear, itâs time for your debut. We canât put it off any longer.â
I followed them out on to the terrace and down the steps. We had to take care to avoid the cables that led down to what appeared to be the control centre. A number of the crew were standing around talking under an improvised canopy, made of sheets and tied to adjacent trees. The beach itself was deserted save for one man who was raking over the imprints left by the crew when they had been setting things up. Of course! The scene was meant to take place on a deserted beach and a series of footprints would strike a jarring note.
Greg was giving some last minute instructions to Kate. âI want you to walk down to the beach. Do you see that small black stone directly ahead. I want you to walk to it but donât make it obvious. Weâll be filming you from behind. Donât forget to swing your arse but donât overdo it. Youâre not a hooker; youâre a girl whoâs here for peace and solitude. Thatâs why youâve chosen to sunbathe on a deserted beach, OK?â He didnât wait for her answer. âRight everyone weâre just about ready. Can we have some silence please?â He smiled at her. âAre you ready, Kate?â
âYes.â There was just a hint of a tremor in her voice.
âGood luck, girl.â Colette gave her the thumbs up.
âOK teamâŠthree, two, one and action!â
I watched Kate as she walked on to the beach, a towel under her arm. She swayed her hips in the most enticing way, the skimpy bikini, concealing so little, served only to enhance her sex appeal. She reached the appointed spot.
