We had coordinated our watches while IMâing each other in the morning. Or we had agreed to both set our watches precisely to the clock on New York One. I told you that seconds would count and you had to get a new digital watch with stop function for $12 on Canal Street just for the purpose of our encounter. When I first saw the watch on your wrist, it felt as if you were tied to me or us through the black strap on your wrist. We had entered the cafĂŠ five minutes apart to make things even less conspicuous than they already were. Because we were on a strict timetable, the pressure to fulfill all the assigned tasks according to schedule added to the thrill of doing something sexual and forbidden almost in plain view of the public.
I felt for the little camera in the inside pocket of my leather jacket. It was around ten oâclock on a rainy Thursday. Most of the tables werenât taken, probably because people in SoHo didnât wake up before noon if they didnât have to be at work. The Starbucks on the corner of Spring Street was busy with people rushing in on their way to work, but very few of them lingered and had time to make themselves comfortable at one of the tables. It was a stretch for both of us to fit the realization of our plan in our busy schedules. We both had to travel from far away and would only have a relatively short time for what felt like a well planned bankrobbery. Until the last minute, I was doubtful whether the subways would cooperate or whether something unexpected like an âout of orderâ-sign would throw everything off. I was still doubtful whether one or both of us would actually come ââcomeâ as in âcomingâ or âcumingâ- because it is hard to reach an orgasm quickly ⌠on demand ⌠and (almost) in public. But the whole perversity made our plan worth it and I was sure that both of us had come often and hard while fantasizing about our plan and that todayâs âjobâ (still thinking in terms of the Bonnie & Clyde metaphor) would be the beginning of a string of other, similarly arousing encounters.
You didnât seem nervous at all when you walked into the Starbuckâs, almost to the second on time, your hair a little wet from the drizzle outside. I imagined that the wet curls of your pubic hair might be as moist as your hair. You seemed as composed as when you were presiding over the conversation with your brother and his girlfriend in the âRed Railâ. I looked at the black girls behind the cash register and the coffee bar to check whether they had picked anything up. But how should anybody guess that we knew each other? I had the Times on my lap. I was still on the first page, because I hadnât been able to concentrate on the subway ride into the city. I thought about your subway story ⌠the fact that we both came from Brooklyn on the subway on the same morning ⌠me covering my erection in the subway with the Times on my lap that very morning. That very second I knew that I already had a plan for another encounter which would follow if our Starbuckâs plans succeeded.
I regretted that I hadnât paid attention for a second. You had already paid for a coffee or tea, did it really matter? I had gotten the cheapest herbal tea, appropriately named âPassionâ, and I wasnât planning to finish my cup. You looked for a seat. You started to appear nervous. Nobody noticed, but I did. I liked it. Maybe you doubted whether we should go along. Maybe you were anxious. I imagined how fast your heart was beating. I liked it. I checked my watch. You sat down. It didnât matter where. From now on you had only three minutes to get up. From my seat near the window I could watch both the only entrance to the Starbuckâs and the hallway leading to the phones and the restrooms. We had agreed not even to look at each other, in case anybody would notice that. We just looked around, taking it all in, studying the faces of the other people, who were completely clueless that both of us would be moaning, screaming and getting off in a couple of minutes.
My stop watch showed 3:04. You got up, again a little too hasty, a little too fast. You walked up to the coffee bar. The black girl shot you a glance. You reached for the key with the wooden panel attached to it. She lowered her eyes. You took the key out of the basket. The white paper cup on the table were you had sat was still steaming. I looked at your ass while you were walking along the bar and then disappearing in the hallway leading to the two restrooms. I didnât know which one you would use. I would knock four times, two times long, two times short. In exactly three minutes. That was the time you had to take your pocket vibrator out and get completely naked.
We had agreed not to speak at all. We would only speak in an emergency, if we were caught and had to make quick arrangements. The only exception was talking dirty, as in âTake your dick out!â, âShow me your prick!â, âSpread your cuntlips for me, slut!â We both hoped that we would get off, but our plan was primarily about the job which had to be done. I reached again for the small camera. 36 shots of highly sensitive 800 ASA film. How long would it take us to snap all these shots?
Time was up. I stood up, followed you, without looking at anybody. I wasnât nervous. I had been in similar situations in the past, although not in the last year, because school didnât allow for it. I decided to try the second door first. I had checked out the bathrooms before and they were both large. I was sure that they were still clean, because it was early in the morning. I thought of your naked body and my cock stiffened inside my jeans. I wasnât anxious at all. I enjoyed what we were doing and I was proud that we had the guts. I knocked, the door opened and I pushed in quickly. Everything happened so quickly that somebody would have had to walk two steps behind me in order to realize what went on. The black girls behind the cash register didnât notice, didnât give a damn or thought I went to make a phone call. They would probably giggle if they would know that you were waiting completely naked right behind that door.
You were hiding behind the door and you were trying to cover your crotch and your breast with your hands. I pulled both of your arms behind your back. You instantly reached for my cock. I slapped your ass. We had agreed on a plan in which order we would shoot the pictures. It had to be clear that we were in a public bathroom, preferably a Starbuckâs bathroom, as if this could happen anywhere, any time. As if each woman and each man heading for the Starbuckâs bathroom could be walking into their private orgy room.
I pushed you against the sink in front of the mirror, grabbed one of your legs and put it up on the sink. You had to lean against the wall not to lose your balance. I looked through the viewfinder. You were unsure were to put your arms. I saw part of myself in the mirror over the sink.
âBitch, spread your cuntlips for me!â
