~ Panties ~

a short story written for RedcloudNine

I settled underneath a large oak tree in the middle of the park. The bright sun made the shade perfect for reading. I placed my book on raised knees and slowly eased into the new romance novel. After a bit of getting lost in the words, I glanced up to see a man looking at me. He turned his head quickly when he noticed me looking back. I smiled and started reading again. I made a point to glance up to catch him looking again. It became a game for me, too. Finish a page, see him staring. Flattering was what I thought at first. But when I caught an older lady glare at me, I realized why this man was giving me all his attention - my skirt was raised . He and the world could see my panties! Instinctively, I stretched my legs flat across the ground. The lady started walking again. The man started to read his newspaper.

I don't know why, really, but I did raise my knees again. Call me a tease, but I wondered if the man would start staring again. He did. My little game continued for several more minutes. Then I decided to see his reaction up close.

I rose to my feet brushing the leaves and grass from my skirt. All the while, I watched the man from the corner of my eye. He wasn't reading his newspaper very much either - especially, when I bent over to retrieve my book. Wicked, I know. Fun, too.

I walked straight towards the man. He immediately fumbled his newspaper as if he never noticed me. I walked straight pass him without a glance. Well, I didn't glance back for several steps. Tossing my hair over my shoulder, I spotted him coming in my direction.

I stopped at a drinking fountain. I took a long sip. The naughtiness inside me bent at the waist rather than the knees to reach the children's fountain. I was mentally thinking of how much might be exposed. I had no idea. I actually was hoping for him to have a view of my panties.

After I straighten up, I noticed him squatting low - pretending to tie his shoes. He definitely was getting low for a better look.

I continued a slow stroll through the park. My little puppy was following me. He seemed harmless enough, especially in a public place like this. I reminded myself to lose him... later. I was having too much fun right now.

The park's entrance was a grand staircase. I started up slowly. My little voyeur hurried to get into position on the stairs. I stopped and wickedly bent over pretending to tie my own shoes. I could see him nervously trying to decide where to go - up, down, or stay put. He didn't move.

I hurried up the rest of the steps, but turned back parallel to the staircase. He was in position to see me as I walked along the railing. I stopped, and maybe I even stuck my butt back through the rail a little as a rested. Unfortunately, from this position, I couldn't see him, so I moved along slowly.

I turned around waiting for a light to change at the street corner. My caboose was in tow. I was really getting excited showing this complete stranger little glimpses. I made a sight looking for a magazine at the news stand. My admirer never moved from the street corner while I made my selection.

I walked back along the park side street. He was still there. I spotted the restrooms. Just before ducking into the ladies side, I saw my follower take a position along the wrought iron fence line.

I didn't have to pee, and fortunately I had the place to myself. I slipped off my panties. I was trembling. I was daring myself to go through with this. I accepted.

I stopped just as I exited the restroom. My eyes strained against the sunlight. Slipping down my sunglasses, I saw the man catch my presence. I walked straight towards him. He stood fast pretending to read the newspaper for the umpteenth time. This time, I stopped right next to him. I placed my hands on the wrought iron fence. When he finally noticed my panties were in my hand, I left them hanging on the fence and walked back into the park.

I turned around to see if he was following. He wasn't! I saw him hurrying to the restroom. I looked back at where we were standing. My panties were no longer on the fence. The man disappeared in the restroom. I decided to quickly move along laughing.
