I was playing basketball on the corner park by the courthouse. I go down there pretty often with my friend, Tom. It's our final summer before heading to school and we don't have money to travel. There's not much to do but shoot hoops and smoke weed on the park. It's not so bad, when I'm not playing ball I'm reading piles of books or playing around on my dad's gym equipment. Classic, bored 19 year old shit.
I noticed you as you walked down the hill. I always notice a lady in yoga pants and a hurry. Tom had seen you before - he described you as a 'brunette milf that looked kinda like Jennifer Connelly with the height and tits of Salma Hayek'. Tom was dumb, I wouldn't ever use those definitions but for the sake of fast description - sure - that's good enough. I took an eye off the ball and watched you walk quickly down the hill, it was hard to concentrate on basketball. We don't see too much of the female form around this quiet town.
Just as I got my mind back on the game you were coming back up the hill, slower this time with a coop bag pressed against your chest. You noticed me watching you, and since you're older you did that thing that older people do - you spoke to match the eye-contact.
Beautiful day. You said.
Hot. I said.
Too hot! You smiled and slowed down even more, sort of drifting toward the edge of the park, like a person wanting distraction.
Tom shot another hoop, half-attempting to continue our game, half wanting to join our conversation, or whatever it was.
You live Uptown? Tom asked - throwing another ball at the hoop.
Couple of blocks up the hill. Right by the church.
I know the place. Needs paint!
Yes! That's the place. You laughed. - My husband promised to paint but then he's gone away for weeks - done a runner, left it for me to do, the bastard!
Sounds like a smart man. Said Tom.
Right. You nodded, and started to walk off again, adjusting the bag in your arms. You were walking beyond the edge of the court now, and I wanted to keep you talking...
Well, we're on vacation. We could paint the outside of your house. We're at a lose end. I mean, We. Are. Bored.
You slowed again.
That's fine thanks. You laughed. - You sound like Mormon missionaries.
We're no mormons! Tom, like a child, flexed a bicep. It was painful to watch. Funny. Dumb. You laughed, politely.
Oh, you know what though? You got serious. If either of you know how an Apple TV works... you could help me out. It fucks me off, but it's not starting in the mornings... my husband says it's a simple reset, but I have no idea where that is, or how to do it.
It's tricky when you don't know how. Said Tom, but we all knew he was being kind. He'd have ripped into anyone else who couldn't find a reset button.
Well, I have kids ice lollies. You lifted the bag away from your chest - I only want one. You reset my Apple TV and you can have the rest of this box.
Deal. Tom smiled. We put on our t-shirts and jogged to the edge of the park. Tom carried the ball as I reached to take the shopping bag from you. I couldn't help but notice your breasts, big, and cold from where you'd pressed the icey box against them. You caught me eyeing your cleavage, you may have been a bit annoyed - but you blushed a little. And in a micro gesture you were back to composed, and you frowned a little.
We got to your house. Tom tossed the ball onto the lawn as you opened the front door. It was unlocked.
Such a safe town, this thing is never locked. You said, leading us into the house.
You walked into the kitchen and pointed us to the TV at the end of the living room. You were putting groceries into the fridge, and the freezer. Cursing that things never fit. You told us to find the remotes and see what we could do.
Tom, who has always been way more confident than me, went straight to the TV. He sat on the floor as I sat on the sofa. He found one remote and turned on the TV. You sat on the sofa to the left of me, closest to the kitchen, with an ice lolly in your hand. I couldn't help but watch you - perched on the edge of the sofa a couple of cushions along from me - your back straight, chest out, knees together. It's like you were still in a yoga pose. Tom made noises about the TV - about finding the right input. He was taking way longer than he needed to. Perhaps he was politely showing that 'yes - this isn't easy' to humor you, or perhaps he was stalling for time, and to hang out a little longer in your home.
It was hot and you started to suck on the lolly now, stopping the melt from dripping. I couldn't stop watching. I'm 19 and male, and we see sex everywhere - but I guess you knew what you were doing.
Is there another remote? Asked Tom - his back to us. - I can't get the box to talk to the TV.
Oh - maybe in the sofa. You said, and you leant a little closer to me, pushing your free left hand down between the cushions. Tom, still with his back to us. You didn't find anything on your side of the sofa, so you leant closer toward me, leaning over me - you brushed your far arm over my waist, right along my belt. I felt your breast against my upper arm, and, like I said, I'm 19 so was getting hard super fast. This is the stuff of fantasy.
It was clear now, that you knew what you were doing; this teasing, this licking, this silly brushing of the arm. You slouched back to your end of the sofa
- It's usually between the cushions, right, that's how this shit always ends up. You said, way too serious for us to take you seriously - this was playing like a bad movie.
Well, if you can't find it, I'll have to do everything around here. Tom was so sure of himself, he turned around, to see you now slouched, pretending to be tired, or bored, or exhausted with the trial of it all. your legs a little apart, laying back, your nipples now hard pushing through the fabric of your vest. Tom, not like Tom, stuttered for a moment, he saw the tension between us - I'm not sure you could have looked everywhere, or we'd have it in our hands.
