Lights, Camera, Busted!

Submitted by Beth:

Henry and I had been out twice before, and this time around we were on his couch watching a movie.  As things can go when watching a movie on a couch with a date, we began cuddling and kissing.

About twenty minutes into being hot and heavy, I heard a high-pitched rapid beeping from somewhere nearby.

I asked him what it was and he said, "Something in the kitchen.  I don't know."

We continued on the couch for a while and he excused himself to go to the bathroom.  While he was away, I couldn't help but look towards his kitchen and see an oddly-piled stack of cookie and cereal boxes.  Upon closer inspection, I discovered a video camera hidden among them, pointed toward the couch, and it was on.

I wondered - should I confront him?  Should I play it cool?  What do I do?  Then it hit me: I ejected the tape from the camera and slipped it into my handbag.

I returned to the couch and when he tried to continue our session, I told him that it was enough for one night.  I didn't say or do anything else suspicious, and I left when the movie was over, as if nothing was wrong.

He didn't call me after that.

  3. You're very forgiving. I would have had the cops come pay a visit with a lawyer following close behind...
