Starlet rented a cottage, just like so many others. She just had to get away, from her everyday life, her loneliness, her body aching for that "feeling". Finally she just had to just go, she found her self here, on this beautiful beach, surrounded by beautiful everything. The flowers, the animals even the people.
Although, she felt out of sorts but she remained. Found herself doing all the things she enjoyed but never had time for, taking pictures, reading, writing her short stories, and just took in the beauty, until one night....
As the lovers became exhausted and rested together on the blanket, laughing and talking; somewhere off in the shadows, was a presence they hadn't even noticed during their lovemaking. Candy being too satisfied and glowing and Rob tracing his fingers over her glistening skin, remained relaxed and refined, so, neither even felt Starlet there.
Starlet watched them, Couldn't help herself. She tried to walk away the minute she saw the girl approach. But she could not, instead she just watched...He was magnificent so gentle and strong, yet willing and able. The woman seemed young and fragile but watching her open to him and feast with him, the whole thing was such an overpowering feeling she could not leave. So, she stayed in the shadows and watched. She felt that feeling build, the feeling she has had to satisfy for so long by herself, but took advantage on the scenario and joined the lovers as they orgasmed several times. Starlet had no idea how long she had watched them, how long they lasted. She had never experienced such a sexual appetite much less knew one could exist.....
Starlet watched as the two lovers, started laughing and walking away, naked in each others arms, just a blanket wrapped around them. Carrying their things back to their cottage, so full of satisfaction, so much lust she could almost smell it.
Embarrassed that she had, not only watched the two lovers in the shadows, but also got off to their passion, she turned and headed back to her own cabin. Where again, she would lay in the shadows alone.
When Starlet awoke the next morning, she busied herself with the satisfaction of developing the pictures, in her make shaft developing room. She loved watching her pictures come to life. The colors, the animals, the textures and the emotions on others face when they weren't aware of their picture being snapped. When she took pictures, like these, she always tried to locate the subject and give them a copy. Starlet had never encountered anyone that wasn't pleased with her work.
As, Starlet danced to her favorite son, The Wolf, by Heart, and continued to develop her film, a sudden heat entered he body and face as she realized in her hand was a picture of the man on the beach last night, the next one, of the woman. As Starlet developed, picture after picture, she could not believe her eyes; how? She had no remembrance of shooting these. There were three rolls of twenty four pictures each. She could not recall even sapping a single one of them. Starlet remembered each pose, touch, kiss, the passion is each of their eyes, in some pictures both of their eyes and the pictures of their bodies, you can see the sweat on them, the passion and heat rising. Embarrassed and shocked at herself, she had no idea how long she stood there looking at each and every one of the pictures. She plunged herself downward into her chair and sat there open mouthed and shocked. When she finally admitted, to herself, she obvious took them, it was at that time, and she started the inner dilemma of deciding what to do with them. She could throw them and there negatives away, no, being what they were and who she was, they were beautiful pictures. There was nothing "sick and perverted" about the couple. She could anonymously mail them or drop them off, but then maybe the couple would think, she was sick and perverted. Then she decided, she would just walk them over to the cottage she saw the two enter, explain (although she had no clue as to how), and give them the negatives and pictures, and hope that would be the end of it. Mustering up every ounce of nerve she had, she placed the pictures in an envelope, along with the negatives and headed to the cottage just a mile down the beach from her own. She walked and talked the whole way, trying to figure out exactly how to explain. The truth was simple enough, only how does she admit she doesn't remember taking one of them much less three rolls, and then her cheeks redden as she remembers what she did do while watching them. Starlet almost turned around right there. What was she doing? What was she going to say?
I was watching you two make love last night on the beach and was so into the passion that while I was moaning with delight and lust I was also, unknowingly snapping pictures?(She started shaking her head, lost in thought, Oh, this is not good)
Then from her left, she heard a deep husky voice, dripping with sensuality, ask, "Are you lost?"
When Starlet looked toward him, she dropped the envelope and stared open mouthed, motionless and felt the redness color her face. Before her stood the mystery man from last night, in all his wonder. She tried to talk but nothing came out of her mouth.
Starlet watched as he came over to her, bent down picking up the envelope and asked, "Are you alright?"
"Who are you talking to, Rob?" and out of the fence, to stand next to him was the woman, also, from last night.
"I'm not sure, Candy." Rob said, "She seems to be in some kind of shock."
I just stood there dumbfounded, looking from 'Rob' to 'Candy'; unable to say a word.
"Let's get her something to drink and some shade," Candy replies, "pick her up, and bring her in."
"I can walk." Starlet whispered
Rob must not have heard her gentle whisper because he wrapped her arms around his shoulders, and lifted her into his arms with ease. Starlet didn't protest, she just stared at him and melted into the touch, the heat that radiated off him was unbelievable. When he sat her in a lounge chair, Candy appeared with a tall glass of tea and handed it to Starlet.
"Thank you", Starlet mumbled
"Are you okay?" from Candy
"Um, yes, I am sorry, I don't know what came over me."
"Oh, it's fine," Candy replied in a sing song voice "the heat can do strange things."
From somewhere behind her, she heard that sexy voice, but this time it had a hint of, (what's the word Starlet was looking for), amusement in it. When she turned to look at him, she knew where the amusement came from. In his hand were the pictures she had brought with her. Flustered again, she tried to explain.
"It's not what you think!" she all but screamed out
"Ah, but I think it's exactly what I think." There was no madness in his voice, quite to contraire, his eyes of a golden sunset almost twinkled with playfulness.
"Candy, what do you think about these?"
" I swear I wasn't prying, I didn't meant to, you know, watch, much less take pictures...." sputtered Starlet
To her amazement, I don't think they heard a word she was saying. Starlet stared as they just crooned over them.
"I like this one, no this one." Replied Rob "Well, I think, this one is the best." Candy said "Look at the way your eyes, your body...on and on." Rob said
For the third time that day, Starlet was shell shocked, they weren't mad, they were thrilled. After what seemed like an eternity, they seemed to have suddenly remembered her presence.
"Did you take these?" Candy asked
"Well...." Starlet stammered
"Are you a professional photographer?" Rob asked, "Can we purchase these?"
"See, well, you want to buy them?", Starlet's shockingly asked
Rob replied, "Well, definitely! How much do you want for them?"
"Hum, you don't understand," Starlet tried to explain, "I came to give them to you, along with the negatives and apologize for invading your privacy."
"She's kidding right?" Rob asked Candy, in laughing voice "This is some kind of joke or, wait, Candy did you set this up?"
"I did no such thing." Candy grinned
"Then your for real?" astonished Rob, "You came to apologize?"
"Well, yes. I mean I was just sitting on the beach and I noticed you, then um, Candy, isn't it?" a shake from Candy's head, got her a confirmation, "and well, I guess I got caught up in things and didn't realize, then my amateur photo desire took over."
