EXTRACT FOR
Keeping His Dirty Secret
(Ginny Watson)

"I watched a crazy film last night!" April began her probing. Rick had arrived on her sofa an hour earlier claiming that he hadn't felt well the night before.

"But I'm here now!" he had said as he uncorked the wine.

That bottle had died and by the look in his eyes he was beginning to feel mellow.

"Crazy? What film was that?"

April smiled, "I don't know what it was called because I turned on when it was almost finished... but the things that guy was doing to a couple of Asian girls... well, I didn't know positions like that were even possible!"

Rick swallowed hard and glanced at the door. "Asian girls?"

April smiled and nodded.

"Were they tied up?"

For a moment a light glimmered inside April's mind before flaring into realisation. He was streaming something from the internet and now he's wondering if I saw it too because we share the internet connection... this is my chance to dig deeper.

"Oh yeah," she gasped, "Really tight!"

"Japanese girls?"

The colour had drained from his face, and April began to realise that his expression spoke of a much deeper shame inside than that reserved for watching a couple of chicks in bondage... something else must have been happening, something taboo.

"Both Japanese," she nodded, "Although I didn't catch their names!"

"Did you watch the last ten minutes?" His voice emerged as a whisper as he turned the wine cork nervously between his fingers, his concentration focussed there rather than on her face.

"Especially the last ten minutes!" April whispered. "Is that what you're into Rick?"

His face flushed scarlet, but still avoiding her eyes he nodded. "Please don't tell anyone, people wouldn't understand."

"Have I ever shared any of our secrets?" she asked softly, "Have I ever betrayed your trust Rick?"

"No," he admitted, "But they were little secrets, kids things... nothing like this!"

"Did you make a copy of the film?" She asked, her tone light and encouraging.

"Why?" he asked defensively.

"Because I thought it might be fun if we dimmed the lights, opened another bottle then watched it together... from the beginning!"

"Seriously?" he gasped.

"Unless you think it would be weird watching with me here?"

"It probably would be a bit weird," he agreed, "But if you're sure you want to watch it again...?"

"Go and get the copy Rick." she giggled, "And I'll open the wine!"
