Downshire
is a relatively small English county but like a pocket battleship it packs a
lot in, a short but beautiful coastline, a channel port, the Ancient forests of
Dancingdean and Pepperstock, the craggy ridges and manmade lakes of the
Pepperstock Hills National Park, the rolling hills of the Downshire Downs, the
beautiful Finchbottom Vale and farm land as far as the eye can see from the
Trotwood’s and the Grace’s in the south to the home of the Downshire Light
infantry, Nettlefield, and their affluent neighbour’s, Roespring and Tipton in
the north but our story begins considerably further south in the Finchbottom
Vale although the players in this tale come from every corner of the county.
A group of
University friends were camping at the Eastern end of the Finchbottom Vale, on
the Maxlins camp site in Sharpinghead that was once a working railway station
before it fell afoul of Dr Beeching and his draconian cuts.
The
campsite was attached to Maxlin’s Holiday Camp and although the campgrounds were
nothing to do with Maxlin’s, all those attending did have day passes to use
some of the amenities.
They were
just spending a week relaxing before they returned to Abbottsford University for
their 3rd year.
One of them
was Sean Hallows who was a rather ordinary looking lad, a bit of a bean pole
with scruffy blonde hair and a bad complexion, the only remarkable thing about
him was his heart.
He had to return
to his tent one morning after breakfast because he had forgotten his phone.
“Get my
sunnies while youre there” his girlfriend Daisy said
“Ok” he
retorted and set off at pace.
They were
about ten minutes walk frrom the food hall but with his great long strides he
did it in five and he went to Daisy’s tent first and went inside without
hesitation as he knew where she kept her sun glasses.
But as soon
as he got inside he stopped dead in his tracks as her best friend Katie Bell was
still in the tent, though not still in her sleeping bag, in fact she wasn’t in very
much at all really.
She was
kneeling down, facing the flaps, pulling a T-shirt over her head, apart from
that she was only wearing her underwear.
Sean stood
motionless by the opening spellbound by the vision of the girl he had been in
love with for almost a year.
She was a
big Ginger Amazon of a girl almost as tall as he was, long limbed, busty and
beautiful, well he certainly thought so, which was why when he came upon her in
a state of near undress he couldn’t take his eyes off her, and there was a lot
of her to look at.
Katie hadnt
noticed him at first as her long ginger locks had fallen across her face but
when she did she made no attempt to cover herself and chose instead to glare at
him.
“Sorry” he
said still staring at the expanses of pale naked flesh “Sorry I didn’t know you
were here”
“Well you
do now” she pointed out
“Sorry” he
said again
“Not sorry
enough to look away though” Katie said
“Sorry” he
repeated and stopped staring at her long enough to find Daisy’s sunnies and then
he went out the way he came still appologizing as he went.
He was
breathing hard and his cheeks were burning with embarassment by the time he got
inside his tent where he quickly found his phone and was just about to leave
when he was suddenly kneeling face to face with the ginger amazon, Katie.
He jumped
when he saw her kneeling there and he was flustered again and his cheeks burned
red a fresh.
“I really am sorry” he said but her attention was elsewhere
“I really
am sorry Katie”
“Its ok” she said “I’m not cross, I can easily understand that my lovely naked
bod could easily make you spy”
“I didn’t
spy, honestly Katie” he exclaimed
“So why are
you so red?” She asked curiously still staring at him, making him uncomfortable
and enjoying it, and under her quizzical gaze he replied quietly
“Because of
what I saw” he confessed
“So you’re
red because you spied on me?” she mused
“I didn’t
spy” he said “I didn’t know you were there”
“But you
did look didn’t you?” she asked
“Yes” he
replied uncomfortably
“So do you
make a habit of staring at half naked innocent young girls?” she quizzed
“No of course not”
“But you
did stare at me didn’t you?” she added
“Yes”
“So if you
don’t make a habit of it why did you do it today?” she asked and for the first
time during the exchange felt nervous herself
“You of
course” he said
“What about
me?” she asked expectant of the answer
“Everything”
he confessed
“What do
you mean?” she asked innocently and felt her cheeks colour up
“I like
everything about you” he replied
“Details?”
she demanded
“Your
gorgeous ginger hair, your lovely face and your sweet smile” he admitted
“But you
weren’t looking at my hair or my face” she pointed out
“No I
wasn’t” he admitted “I was looking at your long legs and your alabaster skin”
“And?” she
prompted
“Your hips,
your bum, your flat belly and your breasts” he concluded and she smiled
“And what
were you thinking about while you stared at me?” she asked
“The same
thing I always think about”
“And what’s
that?” she asked and the moment the words left her lips he grabbed her by the
lapels and pulled her into the tent and onto her back.
“I was
thinking” he said as he half lay on top of her
“What it
would be like to hold you in my arms and kiss you”
“Stop
thinking about it and do it then” she exclaimed softly and his lips touched
gently onto hers.
When they
got back to the food hall Daisy was waiting for him with an unhappy expression
on her face
“Where have
you two been?” she demanded
“Well first
of all I couldn’t find my phone” he explained “and then I forgot where you keep
your sunnies”
“And whats
your story?” she asked Katie
“Well I was
helping Sean to rembember stuff” she said
