My name is Sara I'm 32 years old, single and the fact that I'm writing this story down is as unexpected as the events that unfolded that summer day.
I decided since I was on holiday for the week that I would make the most of the good weather. I fixed myself some breakfast and sat out on the patio to make the most of the sunshine.
"Hello!" A man's voice shouted, startlingly me. I looked up to see a face peering through the back gate.
"Yes, can I help you I asked?" Hurriedly pulling the straps on my t-shirt back over my shoulders. Regretting my decision to put on the skimpiest top I could find.
"I'm looking for number twenty-six." The man replied. "Removals."
"It's three doors up." As if he didn't know; he was obviously taking the opportunity to ogle me at closer quarters through the gate. I decided to play along, I stood up to reveal my long legs and shapely body, with an exaggerated flick of my long blonde hair I pointed in the direction of the now no longer vacant property; as I did so I allowed my top to ride up to reveal the bottom of my full breasts.
"Thanks" He managed to say over his bulging eyes. "Eh...any chance of a cuppa, love?"
"None." I replied, making it clear that his leering fun was over. I sat back down and continued reading my book.
After an hour or so the removal men finished unloading and departed, leaning out the window of their truck one of them shouted something but was drowned out by the driver leaning on the horn.
I blew them a kiss and then gave them the finger to make the message clear. Fuck off!
"Hey don't be like that." The one I recognised from earlier shouted out. "Don't you want to come with us for a ride?"
"Yeah, we've a double bed in the back we could make this a fuck-truck." Another shouted.
I was livid, nobody speaks to me that way, I threw my book down and in the process spilled a glass of ice-cold water all over my shorts. The shock of the cold and the laughter that now came from the pigs in the truck made me jump up and storm towards the gate to give them a piece of my mind.
"Is there a problem here?" Another voice asked forcefully, just as I wrenched the gate open. I jumped at the unexpected appearance of another person, took a step back and turned my ankle in a flowerbed, falling over in the process. The removal men were stunned into a momentary silence, which ended abruptly when they saw that my top had ridden up over my right breast, which was now exposed to their leering stares.
Another face appeared at the gate; it was that of the man who had just demanded to know what was going on. He immediately started forward to offer to help me back on my feet, but stopped when he noticed my predicament.
"You lot, fuck off right now, or I'll be on the phone to your office to make a complaint." He snarled at the removal men.
I quickly sorted my clothes and retrieved my sunglasses, which had also fallen off. The stranger offered a hand to help me up, which I gladly accepted and he gently pulled me back to my feet. The pigs in the truck slowly drove off, laughing uproariously as they did so.
"Thank you." I said, taking the time to examine my would-be rescuer. He was in his forties with greying hair, he was certainly a handsome man and must have been a very attractive man when younger. I put weight on my injured foot and stumbled into the stranger.
"Whoa. Did you hurt yourself when you fell?" he asked, grabbing hold of me firmly to steady me. His hands were slightly cold to the touch and they felt electric when they touched the bare skin around my midriff.
"Yes...I think I've twisted my ankle slightly."
"Okay let's get you to a chair." With the aid of the stranger I managed to hop back down to my chair, conscious of the fact my boobs were barely under control beneath my top.
"My name's Charlie, I just moved in a couple of doors up. Do you want me to call and complain about those idiots in the truck?"
"No, it's okay. I only have myself to blame; if I'd just ignored them then I wouldn't have hurt myself."
"Okay, if you're sure. Do you want me to get you an ice pack or something for your ankle."
"Would you mind?" I asked. Charlie headed into the kitchen and came out a minute later with some ice wrapped in a towel. "Ah. My night in shining armour." I joked as he handed me the icepack.
"When I see a damsel in distress, especially one as beautiful and sexy as you, then how could I resist." He replied with a mock bow. I was a little taken aback to be called both beautiful and sexy by this stranger, that I was finding increasingly attractive. My face must have flushed as he winked at me then said, "Well I'd better be off, my brother will be wondering where I've gotten to, he's helping me move in and since it's just the two of us I'd better get a move on."
Eventually the pain subsided in my ankle and I was able to change into a clean pair of shorts and fix myself a sandwich for lunch. A couple of hours passed by, lost in my book when there was another shout from the gate.
"Hello."
"Hello Charlie" I responded.
"I'm not Charlie, I'm Dave, Charlie's brother."
"Oh, you're twins?" I said stating the obvious.
"That's right. Good book?"
"Oh no nothing serious, just some trashy novel."
"Well, Charlie asked me if you'd like to come round and help us celebrate his moving in; we've just opened a rather nice bottle of wine."
I couldn't think of a reason to decline, and in fact I rather wanted to check out my new neighbour so I readily accepted. Dave seemed every bit as charming as his brother and obviously he shared his brother's good looks. We all sat down at a small table and spent a good hour or so chatting away. I found out that Charlie had decided to move back to Scotland when his wife divorced him; something that had hit him hard Dave explained when Charlie went back inside for our third bottle of wine. That had been a year before and it had taken him that long to sell his house in London and find somewhere suitable here.
We continued to down the wine like there was no tomorrow and the conversation flowed on. I was surprised to find out that the brothers were actually 52 years old.
"You guys certainly don't look your age," I said.
