[This was written for a sexy lady I chatted to in a chat room the other day: there is very little descriptive content because she was rather shy about revealing any personal details: but I wrote this for her, doing the best I could with what I had to work with, and am publishing it with her blessing. As this is my first attempt at an erotic story, I would welcome comments (especially from any ladies) either in the public comments at the end of the story, or directly, by email. Perhaps you'd like me to write something for you?]
*************************************
The knock at the door, though quiet, makes you jump. Out of the corner of your eye you see James start too, and you jerk your head around to look at him: seeking a last minute reprieve, perhaps. You notice he's sweating and looks as nervous as you feel. You glance reflexively down at your watch and then back up at your husband, acutely aware of your pounding heart. How on earth did you get yourself into this, you think.
"At least he's on time," says James, in an attempt at levity.
Neither of you makes a move for the door. Perhaps if you just sit here long enough, he'll go away.
A few seconds later there's another knock: louder and more insistent. You both jump again, even though you must have been expecting it.
"Will you open it, Clare?" asks James, nodding slightly in the direction of the door. As you stare at him, you notice that he seems to be swallowing repeatedly. You stand up in a trance: on auto-pilot. You look him in the eye and hold his gaze: 'Do you really want this?' you seem to be asking. He looks away uncomfortably and glances at the door.
No last minute reprieve, then.
Okay.
You take a deep breath and walk towards the door. 'I don't have to go through with this' you tell yourself, and it's only that thought that helps carry your shaking legs to the doorway. Inside of you, though, another voice is saying 'Yes you do have to go through with this. You've got no choice. He's come all this way, paid for petrol; paid for the room. You've given your word. You'll look a complete fool if you back out now. And you promised James. He'd never take you seriously again if you chickened out now. And ... isn't that something stirring slightly? Down there: between your legs? That familiar warm tickling feeling?' The beginnings of an itch that you know will need scratching. You feel your cheeks flush.
You're in a Travel Lodge about thirty miles from home. Far enough away so you won't bump into any known faces. That was the man's idea: the stranger's idea. With your agreement, he'd found the hotel and booked it, explaining that a couple of friends would get there first, and making sure that they'd be able to wait for him in the room. Then he'd arranged with you a time that he would get there.
That time had arrived.
Taking another deep breath, you open the door.
It's strange suddenly having a face to put with all those comments. Those pornographic, personal comments. He looks older than you thought. Greyer. 'He looks old enough to be my father' you think. 'I'm going to do this in front of someone who could be my Dad; or one of his friends.' Your stomach gives a slight lurch. You're not at all sure how those last thoughts make you feel. 'I don't think that I fancy him. Although ... maybe I could.' Then the other voice adds 'Anyway, won't it be more humiliating having to do this in front of someone you don't fancy? ... And that's what you like, isn't it? Being humiliated?'
Suddenly you remember he knows all those things about you; all those terribly intimate things: that you swallow spunk; that you allow someone to piss on you; that you drink piss; that you'll let someone fuck you up your shit-filled arse just because they feel like it.
And, worst of all, soon you're going to be forced to show this stranger β this man you've never seen before in your life, this old man β your tits, and your cunt, and your arsehole.
Your cheeks are burning. You feel like pushing past him and running out. But you know you can't.
You hear James get to his feet behind you, at the back of the room.
"Don't just stand there: come in," he says in a falsely jolly-sounding tone.
Suddenly, everything that seems to have been frozen for an eternity melts back into life. You're stepping back into the room; the man's coming in; he's closing the door. You don't look at James as you walk back towards him, but keep your eyes cast down at the floor. Perhaps you're frightened of what you might see in those eyes of his.
"Hello. I take it you're Ponderer," says James, holding out his hand.
"I'd better be, I suppose," the man replies, and he and James laugh awkwardly.
"So you're Clare, then," he says, turning to you, and you can hear in his voice that he's nervous too.
You tilt your chin up defiantly, attempting to regain some control.
"And you're Ponderer. Nice to meet you at last," you say, holding out your hand. You shake hands, and notice how clammy yours feels, and how dry his does. He has a nice smile, but you notice he's looking down at your breasts; your groin; your legs. He's licking his lips slightly, not salaciously but nervously; but, no doubt, also in anticipation.
You're suddenly aware of how hot it is. 'Why is it always so bloody hot in these rooms?' you ask yourself. 'He can probably smell me sweating' you think, deeply embarrassed at the thought. 'Never mind: you'll soon be able to take something off: get a little cooler.' whispers the deep voice, which causes another twitch of your fanny. You can feel your lower lips swelling slightly. You're opening up. 'Oh God,' you inwardly groan, 'By the time he gets to see my fanny, my juices are going to running down my legs.' You feel so ashamed: it's disgusting that the mere thought of exposing yourself to a stranger should turn you on so much. You're nothing but a slut, you decide. 'And' says the little voice, 'you're going to be made to act like one, too: whether you like it, or not.'
"Take your coat off. Sit down," says James to the man. "Can I get you a coffee, or anything?" Just like everything was normal: just like he wasn't going to force his wife to act like a whore.
"No, I'm fine," the man says, taking off his coat, hanging it up, and then sitting down in one of the chairs next to the window, facing the bed. James sits down in the remaining chair, the one on the other side of the window.
'Now for some small talk,' you think to yourself.
"Well," James says, with a glance at you, "We all know why we're here ... Why don't you take that jumper off, Clare? You're looking rather hot."
"She is looking rather hot, isn't she?" he adds, looking at the stranger.
"Well, she certainly looks hot to me," the man replies with a small laugh. "Just a second, though," he adds, reaching behind him. "Is it okay if I open these a little?" tugging at the curtains. He glances at you, but is asking James; you're not going to have any say in this. The man's remembered what you admitted once in the chat room: the thing about open curtains. 'Fuck! Why did I mention that to him?' you think in aguish.
James glances at you, swallows, then says, with a shrug, "Why not?"
You watch in disbelief as the man pulls the curtains, together with the nets, open about 10 inches at one side. It's dark outside, but in the room, all the lights are on and it's very bright. The room is on the ground floor at the front of the Lodge; you remember that immediately beyond the window is a pavement that runs along the front of the building, and, beyond that, the parking spaces. The walkway was no more than three feet from the window; the cars perhaps four feet beyond that. You shiver.
"I'm not so sure about that," you say hesitantly.
