It was one of those days when both my parents were at work and I had conveniently decided to be sick and bunk college. Of course, this was just an excuse and an hour after my parents left, I was dressed in my best clothes and sneaking my boyfriend into the house.
We did this quite frequently, it was the only way to get some alone time that did not involve me sneaking into his boy’s hostel. That day, we were just sitting in bed and talking when somehow the conversation shifted to a long discussion about porn. Yes, porn! I really don’t remember how the conversation got there but I do remember discussing, in depth, the lifestyle of porn stars and whether or not it was an ideal occupation.
Somewhere in the middle of our porn discussion, my boyfriend suggested we actually watch some porn.
‘Really?’ I asked. ‘Well, I can connect my laptop to my TV so we can watch it in HD!’
The idea seemed too tempting to not try. So I got my laptop and all the wires while he zeroed down on which video we would watch. It was some sort of office-secretary action, because I insisted that we had to watch one which had a good enough storyline.
We cuddled up on the bed and began watching. Being the critic that I am, I wondered aloud how exactly the woman was wearing that barely-there skirt to office or how there was nobody else in the office other than those two. My boyfriend asked me to ‘shut up and get turned on’ after my fifth complaint.
So, I tried to. Surprisingly, I actually did feel myself getting excited by all the action on the screen. I am not sure if it was the porn or the sudden warmth of my boyfriend’s hand around my waist but I couldn’t help but wonder what all could happen with the sexual tension between us. Slowly, as the porn progressed, his hands got tighter around my waist and I could feel his gaze on my lips. Unable to control any longer, I turned to look towards him and before I could even say something, his lips were on mine.
I was surprised. With the passion of that kiss and everything else that followed. But most of all I was surprised by how much that porn turned me on. We looked at the screen after we were done, where the 30 minute long video was still going on. ‘Well, this was something, huh?’ I asked my boyfriend.
‘It sure was!’ he replied with a mischievous grin.
‘Do you do this often?’ I asked, a mild curiosity building in my head .‘Watch porn, you mean?’ he asked. ‘Mmhmm,’ I muttered.
‘Well, yeah, but you know, ever since we got together, I’ve always imagined your face on my screen instead!’
It wasn’t the sweetest thing anyone had ever told me but it sure was pretty honest. And it ended up making me laugh as we cuddled up for the rest of the day, porn actually bringing us closer in a weird little way!
