The “feeling” was mutual

This is the true story of when I was 13 or 14 years old.

It was a warm summers evening and my friend and I were about to head out, that was until we discovered what was in the TV cabinet!

There was a film on TV that night that I wanted to watch, but my friend Jake (not his real name) was round, and with it being a warm dry evening, we wanted to go hang out.

I decided I’d record the movie and watch it later in bed.
My parents were in the living room watching TV, so I started rooting through the TV cabinet in the dining room, looking for a blank tape but I was struggling to find one.
Every one that I picked out had something written on it. Something that had already been recorded by me or one of my parents.

“come on, hurry up” said Jake, impatiently.

“I’m just trying to find a blank tape”
I said.

I eventually got to the very last tape in the drawer.
I pulled it out and there was nothing written on it but it wasn’t a new tape either.
I decided I better check what was on it before I set the VCR timer to record.

I stuck it in the VCR and pressed play and yes, you guessed it. Porn!

Now, Jake and I were both virgins.
Obviously we both knew about sex and we both had 13/14 year old male hormones running through our bodies but neither of us had ever really discussed it and neither of us had ever watched people having sex!

There was no Internet back then, or there was, but not like it is now.
The closest we ever got to porn was the videos they showed us in sex Ed, and that was just awkward.

Of course I’d seen the odd pair of boobs on TV, and maybe a little bit more, I can’t quite remember. But neither of us had ever seen porn before, and this was full on hard-core porn!

Anyways, back to that afternoon..

When I pressed play on the VCR and hardcore porn came on TV, Jake and I were totally shocked!

There was a woman sat on a sofa completely naked with her legs wide open, moaning loudly with pleasure as a guy was fingering her hole.

I instantly panicked and hit the stop button.
We both sat in silence for a moment, taking in what we had just seen.
I was also praying my parents didn’t here. I mean, it was totally innocent, but still.

After a moment, we looked at each other and just giggled.

“Fucking hell!” whispered Jake

“I know! What the fuck?! ” I replied, quietly

“That’s ace!” said Jake, with a big grin on his face.

I just grinned back in agreement

“Who’s is it?” he asked

“I don’t know” I replied

“Maybe it’s your mums” he joked

“Fuck off!” i replied, laughing back at him

Jake and I sat there grinning at each other for a moment longer..

“Should I put it back on?” I said

Jake nodded with excitement

I muted the TV and pressed play again.
We watched about 5 seconds and then I quickly hit the stop button again.

“Fucking hell! ” Jake repeated

“That’s fucking well good” I said

“Put it back on” demanded Jake

I was feeling really nervous at this point.
I was watching people have sex for real, I’m with my friend and my parents were in the next room.
It felt exciting and wrong at the same time and also I was scared one of my parents was going to walk in the room.

“Fuck it” I thought, and once again I hit the play button.
We watched again for another few seconds, during which, I felt my cock begin to grow.

My nerves got the better of me and again I hit the stop button.

“Fucking hell” I said, grinning at Jake as I attempted to disguise my hardened cock. I felt so exposed. I doubt it was even noticeable but it felt almost like I’d just whipped out.

Too scared to watch any more, I hit the eject button and put the tape back exactly where I’d found it.

The next day I couldn’t stop thinking about what I’d seen on that tape.

I rushed home from school, knowing I’d have about a twenty minute window before my parents were home.

I stuck the tape in the VCR and hit play.

“wow” I thought to myself.

I only watched a few seconds before panicking someone was arriving home.

When I realised I was just being paranoid, I pressed play again. I watched a few more seconds and then stopped it, feeling paranoid once again.
This went on for a few mins, watching just a few seconds at a time.

Then I thought to myself.. If this tape does belong to my parents, are they going to notice that it’s not on the same scene it was when they last watched it?
I know I’d probably only watched about a minute of it all together but I was feeling really paranoid.

I decided to rewind the tape back to where it was up to when Jake and I first watched some the day before, and return it to the cabinet.

I didn’t dare touch it again after that.
Damn! There’s a video in my house, of naked people having sex and I can’t watch it!

Some time later, I’m not quite sure why, but I ended up telling my brother about it.
He is much older than me and he had already left home and got his own place.

It turned out the tape was his.
He said he wondered whatever happened to it.
He said he was glad it was me that found it and not one of our parents.
I asked if he wanted it back and he just said
“nah.. you keep it. Just move it out the TV cabinet. Stash it in your room somewhere”.

He didn’t have to tell me twice!
The first opportunity I got, I took the tape from the dining room Tv cabinet and put it right to the back of my own video collection in my bedroom.
