In Real Life: Author's Comments
Bryn
lifts his head from my throat and looks at me searchingly. Withdrawing
his hands, he lifts them to sign. I grab his hips in frustration and
pull his pelvis harder to me, grinding my bereft pussy against him. "He
wants to know if you mind me watching," Hugh asks, his voice
all woolly and hoarse. I
kiss Bryn, softly, eagerly, and shake my head. "Not in the least." Hands
dance again. I want them to dance on my breasts and in my wet slot. "He
wants to know if you'd like me to touch you too." I
swallow, my throat suddenly dry, my heart pounding. "I'd like that very
much," I whisper. Plot: Non-supernatural.
Ellie is an independent woman who is persuaded to meet an online friend
to celebrate New Year. She has only met Bryn in the interactive virtual
environment of Second
Life,
and he only communicates via the written word - she's never heard his
voice. When she arrives at the railway station she is surprised to find
he isn't alone - he's brought his friend Hugh along to act as his
signing interpretor ... because Bryn is profoundly deaf.
Ellie, having got over her shock, finds she's really enjoying
spending time with both men. In fact, she ends up having sex with both
of them.Sexual Themes: Threesome Notes: This
was my first story for a new imprint, Racy Pages. The call for this anthology specified "sexy surprises" as the theme, and I wanted to write a story about how a woman might unexpectedly find herself having sex with two men instead of choosing between them. I didn't want to repeat myself with another cuckolding story: I wanted the sex to evolve naturally and without conflict from the initial attraction. I wanted to explore the idea of a woman wanting to have sex with two men, not for any kinky reason to do with power or humiliation, but simply because she liked them both. So I needed a reason to get her on a date with two strangers - hence the Deaf/signing theme - and for her not to be anticipating that there would be two of them - hence the Second Life/Real Life theme. I'm not a member of Second Life, but I do have a friend who is a longtime participant and who has shown me round a bit. Interestingly, she told me, when I explained the premise of the plot, that there is no way any adult woman would be stupid enough to meet an online friend In Real Life without having first talked to them extensively and made sure they knew all about them: she thought Bryn would find it impossible to not reveal in advance the fact he was Deaf. I had to respectfully disagree ... given that I personally know women who have flown alone to foreign countries to meet up with whole groups of men they only knew via their characters in an an online RPG. Maybe SLers are all more sensible than that, but somehow I doubt it. I had to do some online research about Deafness, signing etc too. I now know the difference between being deaf and being Deaf, for example. The city setting of the story, though unspecified in the text, is the canal area in Manchester, UK, which is full of bars. Cherry, in the same
volume, is a 100-word piece of flash fiction, and the first vampire
story I ever wrote! |
