Will had been watching Katelyn for weeks – the nightly routine of settling in to watch her undress, brush her hair, sing into the mirror, and talk on the phone. It was all too fascinating. He knew her habits better than he knew his own. She liked to eat strawberries while dangling nearly upside down off her bed. She always did her homework at 10 PM. She loved being naked, but she practiced her yoga in her underwear.
She wore a silky red thong set on Tuesdays and Thursdays, plain cotton on every other day of the week, black lace on Saturdays, and on Sundays – nothing. She was mesmerizing, and it drove him mad before he realized that on Tuesdays and Thursdays, James, the boy across the street, mowed the lawn, or at least he tried to; on Sundays, Tim, little peeping-James's dad, sat drinking beers unashamedly staring into her bedroom from his front porch. But of all the people who watched his daughter, it was Will who had the best view.
It just after her 18th birthday that Will first realized what a striking beauty Katelyn had become. He suddenly began noticing how well she filled her jeans and the lovely glimpse of the porcelain curve of her beast when the tiny tops she wore rose as she lifted her arms to him for a hug. But none of this prepared him for a frontal assault the day he walked into her room unannounced to ask a question.
"Hey, Kate," he began as he turned the knob and opened her door, "I...holy shit."
She stood with the sunlight cascading around her, perfectly outlined and her auburn hair glowing. Her smooth skin uninterrupted as it flowed from delicate ankle to shapely calf to plump thigh, rounding out at her generous hips framing the ginger patch of her sex. The narrowness of her waist and the flat pan of her stomach drew his eyes up to her breasts. They were as lovely as he'd imagined: smooth, firm, with small pink nipples jutting upward. And still his eyes rose to see the crystalline blue eyes, wide with horror, and the rapidly spreading blush of her embarrassment before she dove for her bed and the shelter of the blanket that lay on top.
"Dad!" she cried from beneath the cover, "Get out! Oh my god, don't you know how to knock?"
"Sorry!" he said slowly as he blacked out of the room and closed the door like a man asleep. He laid his head against the cool wood of her door and said, "I'm so sorry Katelyn. I just need to know...um, you know what, uh, never mind. I'll, uh, I'll find it myself."
He walked down the hall to his bedroom and collapsed into the easy chair next to his reading lamp. Running a shaky hand through his thinning hair, his mind assaulted him with her image. And from that moment on, he was hooked.
It was at least two weeks of driving her crazy with accidental walk-ins before he hit upon the idea that would satisfy his need without her knowledge. He nearly slapped himself upside the head when he finally thought of it; but instead of potentially looking insane at work, he simply clocked out and hit the nearest Radio Shack. Almost immediately the pimply clerk knew exactly what Will wanted and led him to a corner of the store.
"Now these," he said showing Will a model he'd seen in most gas stations, "will record at least a 120° angle view of the area you want under surveillance."
"Do you have anything a little more...inconspicuous?"
"Oh, yeah, sure," he replied, "These over here are the so called 'Nanny cams.' We've got ones that look like bears, clocks, or even a VCR/DVD player."
"That's the one – the DVD player. Does it work?"
