The Girl Across the Street (desperado1080/Becaa57)

[desperado1089]

"It was the day my package was delivered to your house, but I turned it off after I went up to the window. And yeah, I have had a girl once have a bunch of guys beat me up because I had come across a pair of her underwear that some jock had left in the locker room like some kind of trophy, and I was just trying to give them back to spare her all of that but she wouldn't hear me out. At least she realized later on what I was doing and apologized." I smile as I recall exactly how she 'apologized' to me. "If you'd like, I can do more than explain the setup. I can show you."

I head upstairs to my bedroom and grab the webcam and laptop and bring them back downstairs. "Now, I'm gonna connect the webcam to the computer like so..." I open the laptop and do as I described. "Now I just open the Camera app, and that's literally all I did." I show you the laptop screen, which just shows what the webcam sees, without any recording or taking of pictures.

"It was the day my package was delivered to your house, but I turned it off after I went up to the window.

At least she realized later on what I was doing and apologized."

"That was just wrong!!! Probably her jock boyfriend did it"

I head upstairs to my bedroom and grab the webcam and laptop and bring them back downstairs. "Now, I'm gonna connect the webcam to the computer like so..." I open the laptop and do as I described. "Now I just open the Camera app, and that's literally all I did." I show you the laptop screen, which just shows what the webcam sees, without any recording or taking of pictures.

"I don't understand, this camera is connected to this Laptop, but you work, what good does it do?"

I notice that you are so much more sure about yourself as you show me how to connect the webcam and open the camera app. Even some other adjustments. No hesitation in your movements, no being shy.

"Wow that's impressive. I've been turning down Zoom meeting requests because I don't know how to setup the webcam and their tech guy is well very rude"

 

[desperado1089]

"That's exactly what happened, but her initial reaction was that I was being a creep. I mean, I even put her underwear in a brown paper bag so no one would see them. And of course her jock boyfriend goaded her into that narrative." I turn to you with a smile. "Sometimes I use it to chat with friends, and sometimes I work from home," I say, gesturing to the webcam before turning it and the laptop off for now. "If you'd like, I can help you set it up, it's really just plug-and-play but sometimes you have to get Zoom to actually pick up the feed from the webcam. Meanwhile, as long as I don't hit the record button, at least not without permission, do you mind if I use that method to keep an eye on you if I'm focused on other things?"

 

[Becaa57]

If you'd like, I can help you set it up, it's really just plug-and-play but sometimes you have to get Zoom to actually pick up the feed from the webcam. Meanwhile, as long as I don't hit the record button, at least not without permission, do you mind if I use that method to keep an eye on you if I'm focused on other things?"

"Would you??? I've even tried the Zoom help desk, but I really am no good with computers and things"
"Can barely send a text on my phone, let along chat with a friend"

I relax on your couch as we talk about this. I can see you're much more relaxed too. It's nice to see a real smile on your face, vs. the polite one I'd seen before.

"How often do you work from home? Maybe you can help me then??"
"I'll make us lunch"

"Why do you want to keep an eye on me, when you're working on something else?"

 

[desperado1089]

"I'd be happy to. And I typically work from home Wednesdays and Fridays, but sometimes the boss just tells me to work on something from home. And why do you think I wanna keep an eye on you? In case you give me another show. I don't wanna miss anything, after all!" I chuckle and get up, grabbing a pair of sandals and pulling off the hoodie I was wearing to reveal the fact I was wearing a tank top, despite how unflattering I saw myself as looking. "Shall we?", I ask, grabbing my phone and keys.

 

[Becaa57]

I watch as you're ready to go.
But then look at the time

"Tomorrow is Friday let's do it then. Lucy is going to be home soon, and don't take it the wrong way, but you will not get a warm welcome from her"

Thinking a minute

"I guess if you want to setup the webcam tonight It'll be ok. Can't guarantee you a show thought"

"I best get home, thank you for this. I did enjoy it"

 

[desperado1089]

"I did too, and I'm glad you're not mad. I'll not give Lucy a reason to yell at me or whatever might happen. Take care, and have a lovely day." I smile at you and walk you to the door, opening it for you.

After you leave, I set up the webcam and keep the laptop nearby as I cook dinner. Despite the fact I'm a bachelor living in my dead parents' house as well as a nerdy gamer, I am a pretty good cook. So I am making a stir-fry, thinking to save some for you. Almost as an afterthought, I send you my parents' obituaries, with the accompanying text: Dunno if you noticed the urns or the photos. It's just a part of what makes me, me, but I wanted to tell you.

 

[Becaa57]

I get back home and out of the clothes. Walking into the living room knowing you're probably watching on the webcam as I don't see you in the window
I receive your text

Dunno if you noticed the urns or the photos. It's just a part of what makes me, me, but I wanted to tell you.

Answering
"I did notice can see the resemblance. You were very close to them? I think that's admirable. I barely talk to mine anymore"

 

[desperado1089]

I was. Thanks. P.S: nice bush

I continue cooking dinner, wondering if there's anything else on the agenda for tonight. If I was honest with myself, the show with Lucy was hot, but for some reason I crave watching you simply masturbate more. But I'm not entirely certain how to bring up the idea. Shrugging, I leave half the food in the pan, letting it cool some before I put it in containers, and dish the rest onto my plate, sitting down in the dining room.

 

[Becaa57]

I am making dinner for Lucy and I. Wondering if she will be in the mood tonight, it's been so touch and go lately. She's running late, with no text.
I put her food in the oven, sit down and eat mine. Having a glass of wine with it.

While I'm eating I get a text
It's from Sean

I was. Thanks. P.S: nice bush

Makes me smile, he is nice

"Nice Bush Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm"
"Tell me observant one, what color are my eyes????"

Standing up I go to the window, but keep my eyes close for a minute

 

[desperado1089]

I smirk as I see you step boldly up to the window (and of course my shorts get just a little bit tighter). I zoom in on your face, but your eyes are closed.

I am ashamed to admit that I don't know. Why don't you open your eyes so I can see?

 

[Becaa57]

"Not even going to guess? You might get lucky"

"So basically you're telling me that you've never looked above my neck????"

"Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm"

 

[desperado1089]

Okay, I'll bite. Blue. I chuckle at your response and snap a photo of what's left of my stir-fry and send it with the caption, You'd be the lucky one if I could ever cook for you. My mom's stir-fry recipe has won prizes.

 

[Becaa57]

Okay, I'll bite. Blue.

"Have you even noticed I'm Asian??? A blue eyed Asian??? This isn't Anime!!!!"
"They are Hazel, my dad's eyes, he is white"

You'd be the lucky one if I could ever cook for you. My mom's stir-fry recipe has won prizes.

"That looks good, Mine is porkchop and Applesauce!! In memory of the Brady's"
snapping a pic of that and sending it to you

 

[Becaa57]

"Well looks like we could've eaten together tonight. No Lucy"

 

[desperado1089]

Right, sorry. Despite the fact I got it wrong, I was still in a good mood. But when you sent the follow-up text I frowned. I'm sorry to hear that. Is this something that's happened with her before? I could still come over, if you don't want to be alone?

 

[Becaa57]

I'm sorry to hear that. Is this something that's happened with her before? I could still come over, if you don't want to be alone?

"She has, usually only if she's upset about something. She won't answer my texts and calls go to voicemail.
Thanks for the offer, but"

"I think I'm just going to bed, she has her key."

Not mentioning that I'm probably going to cry, because the last time she did this was when she was cheating on me.

"You still coming over tomorrow to help me with the Zoom?"

 

[desperado1089]

Absolutely. And...I'm here if you need me.

I am smiling as I send the message, as if hoping to boost your spirits over the airwaves. I figured you must be hurting, so I turn off the camera and head upstairs for some late-evening gaming before I head to bed.

 

[Becaa57]

"Thank you Sean, I do appreciate it!!!!"

"Have a goodnight "

I turn off the light, leaving the porch light on for her

As I predicted cry into my pillow for a while before falling asleep

Around 3, I hear her stumble. Great she's been drinking too, can it get any worse

Ignoring her, when she climbs into be whispers

"Baby you awake?"

She tries again
then mumbles something and lays down

Soon she is snoring away, something she only does when she drinks

I get up and go to the living room couch

Looking over at your house, wondering. But it's early not going to text
I lay down, grab a sheet and try to sleep

 

[desperado1089]

I had set my camera back up and wrote a program, and when you peeked over to my house it triggered. Based on facial recognition, the program would send you the following text when you walked up to the window.

If you are reading this, then I am probably asleep, but the program I wrote worked. Don't worry, I'm not violating any of the rules you laid down. But the webcam is involved. I won't bore you with the details, lol.

Anyway, I can guess that whatever is going on with Lucy is most likely bothering you. I know we've only known each other for a few weeks but I want you to know that I value you as a person and hopefully a friend, and as such I will be there for you whenever you need me. Take care and stay strong, April.

 Sean

 

[Becaa57]

Shortly after I lay down I get a text
Strange I think, who would text at this time of the night

It's from Sean?? Why is he awake????

After reading it, makes me tear up again. God he is a sweet guy

I text you back

"Thank you. I am pretty sure you're asleep and I do trust you with the webcam.
Yes Lucy is what's going on, not sure what yet or what it will do to her and I
I may need a shoulder in the near future"

I think a minute after the text

Then send him a selfie of my face and shoulders, the sheet up over my breasts
"So you can see my eyes!!!"

 

[desperado1089]

In the morning, I wake up and notice my phone has a response from you. I smile and read it, and respond.

You are so beautiful. Lucy is a fool for hurting you. Oh, and good morning. I send you a selfie of my own face, bedhead clear in the frame. Let me know when it's a good time to come over and help you with your Zoom stuff, I send right afterwards before I get up, brush my teeth and get ready for the day.

 

[Becaa57]

The morning was very strained. Lucy was obviously hung over. I was pissed and upset.
About the only words we said were goodbye when she left for work.
Maybe??? who knows anymore.

I sit moping for a while, then check my phone
A text from Sean
Reading it. I wonder, do I want company? He's a nice guy but still

I text

"I'm not in the best moods, so if you're willing to risk it, come on over. The door is unlocked"

I decide to get dressed, I know he will be disappointed, but I'll be more comfortable I think

 

[desperado1089]

On my way.

When I arrive, I do my best to hide how disappointed I am, but seeing your face makes all that fly out the window. I sit down next to you and put my hand on your shoulder. "Wanna talk about it?", I ask, figuring the reason I came over could wait a while.

 

[Becaa57]

I hear a knock then Sean opens the door. coming in
I see the disappointment on his face, but it's replaced by a look of concern
He sits next to me, puts his hand on my shoulder

"Wanna talk about it?"

I fall against him, crying his arms go around me, holding me, not saying anything

"She's cheating on me!!!!!! She came home late, drunk and smelling of some whore's perfume!!"
" I do everything for her, I bought this house, no help from her. I bought her goddam car!!!"
"Why????? Am I that ugly????"
breaking down into sobs
