i was 18 years old and had still never even been kissed. it was somewhat odd though because i was in no way a nerd or was in no way socially awkward. in terms of looks, i was not displeasing to the eye, although i was shorter than average, which did not bode well for me in the complexities of female desire. still, the lack of sexual interaction probably came down to the fact that my standards may have been too high at times and on other times i lacked the confidence to make the transition from casual flirting to a spontaneous (and probably clumsy) kiss. the following story details the events that led from my sexual innocence and chagrin to the blossoming of the luckiest night in history - it is just a shame that no one believed me!
it was the winter holidays and my friends and i had decided to have a celebratory break from the pressures of university life. we all had love for the mountaineering/skiing lifestyle and so took advantage of our collective free time and splurged on a generous package deal to an unpopular ski lodge in the swiss alps. the trip was for six nights. it was all fun and games up until the afternoon on what would turn into the fifth night.
after five days of getting a little too acquainted with my friends (nothing gay - not that there´s anything wrong with that!) i needed some time alone and so took it upon myself to go for a lovely afternoon cross country mountain trek. in retrospection, my little getaway was probably a tiny bit stupid, but hey, i was young, invincible and didn´t have the time for trivial news items such as weather reports.
after a while, the crisp mountain air, the absolute white of the snow and the fact that the only sound was a whistling of the wind had all caused me to lose track of time and direction. i remembered thinking that there were probably no people for miles. i breathed deeply and decided to head back in the direction i came from, which was not easy, for i had been walking indiscriminately for a couple of hours and had no compass. at that point, i was not nervous and was quite confident of making my way back to the lodge without much trouble. however, after making use of intuition and the fresh footprints left in the snow, i noticed an encompassing shadow that had itself over everything in site. dark clouds had circled over head relatively quickly. snowflakes had already started to fall and were picking up tempo at a somewhat alarming rate. it was at that moment that slight pangs of anxiety crippled the top half of my body. the snow kept falling and the gentle whispers of the wind had turned into bellowing screams of vigorous ghosts.
i was surprised at how fast the temperature had dropped and in a matter of minutes i had gone from cozy to shivering. the snow was now pounding down and i was finding it difficult to see. i realized i was caught in a blizzard, but i was inexperienced in dealing with them. i did not know how long they lasted and so it was difficult to decide whether to just keep trudging along or sit still and wait for my vision to clear up a bit. it was mainly the glacial winds that spurred me on, because i knew that the blizzard would only cause the temperatures to continue dropping and in terms of clothing - i was not at all prepared.
after walking for about an hour, the storm had not let up, if anything it had probably become more formidable. with just the short radius of visibility before the sheer white to guide me, i was beginning to think that i was going in the wrong direction. the terrain was unfamiliar and there was a distinct lack of stable ground.
another hour had passed and i now realized i was lost. i was struggling to take substantial breaths and i was aware that it was very important for me to find shelter. it was then that i saw a dark shape through the dense snow, which could have only been ten meters away. stretching my numb hands, i walked closer and realized it was a small timber hut. i felt a surge of relief, knowing that the hut would probably save my life. i went around to the front and found a porch. i knew people occupied the hut because a snow swamped car was parked outside. without hesitation, i rapped heavily on the door and waited with hopeful anticipation.
after a brief wait, the door swung open slowly to reveal a woman in a heavy snow coat that draped just above her knees. i noticed that her legs were bare and found this to be strange but did not have enough time to think about it. i was taken aback by the woman´s beauty. she was young - i guessed about twenty. she had dark, long, thick hair and had features that resembled a mediterranean goddess, naturally tanned, with eyes as dark as her hair. she was absolutely beautiful, in an imposing, super model way (yes, she was taller than me).
i tried to say hello, but the cold must have affected my throat because only a whisper came out. the woman grabbed my jacket and pulled me inside. i cleared my throat and managed to thank her.
"the blizzard hit so quickly i must have got lost," i appealed.
she did not look very sympathetic though and asked, "were you alone?"
i nodded. she spoke abruptly and with an european accent i couldn´t decipher at the time.
"we just got to the cabin this morning; we did not have time to get wood for a fire," she said quickly and i realized she must have been getting colder by the second. i also realized that the cabin provided a barrier to the cutting wind, but was not much of a barrier to the bitter cold.
"we?" i asked.
"this is a holiday home. i brought my sister and her friend for the weekend, but the shit weather turns and we weren´t prepared. although, i expected something like this to happen. what can go wrong will go wrong," she said sarically with no flake of humor.
i was impressed by her english, but as she stood there pouting (more in an annoyed than sexy way) i didn´t know what to say so i told her my name.
"whatever, if this storm keeps up, names won´t matter anymore. but, in the meantime - i´m sophia." at that moment she wrapper her arms around herself and shivered. "come on, you are going to have to keep warm or you will get hy-hyp..."
"hypothermia," i chimed in.
"yes, that."
sophia turned and began to walk into one of the rooms. the cabin only had a living room, a tiny kitchen, a small bathroom and one bedroom. sophia entered the bedroom and i followed, not sure what to expect.
the bedroom, like rest of the cabin, was lit up by candles and gas lanterns. a fairly strong orange glow lit up a double bed in the center of the room. two girls were cuddled up on one half of the bed under a woolen blanket. they both looked up when i entered and starred at me, so i introduced myself.
"he was caught in the storm, but it doesn´t look like it will let up tonight so he will have to stay here," sophia told the girls, and then she looked at me and said, "the blond one is my sister, caterina. and that´s her friend, alana."
caterina had her back to me, but alana put her head up and managed a small smile. for a split second i became a bit dizzy, when i realized that alana was nearly as attractive as sophia.
sophia then blew my mind and caught me off guard, "the temperatures in the cabin are as cold as they have ever been. we have been using each others body temperatures to stay warm. it is the only way," sophia spoke very matter-of-factly without much emotion. this made the whole scene a little surreal. i actually remember gulping and feeling like a loser for doing so.
"get undressed. you are probably the coldest, so you can go in the middle," sophia instructed. i hesitated. "hurry up, if you haven´t noticed, it´s fucking freezing." this time i could detect a little grin in between the chattering of teeth.
despite the cold and my powerful urge to get warm, i was still overcome with equally powerful feelings of nervousness. i was being silly and i knew it, but the feelings stayed. i took my jacket off, and automatically felt a constant chill, so i sped up and removed the rest of my clothes quite quickly - except for my boxers. i kind of raised my eyebrow at sophia.
"for god´s sake, grow up. if one of us gets hypothermia we will be stuck here, without help until the snow stops. anyway, your shorts are damp from the snow - how can you expect to get warm if you are wet?" she stated vehemently.
sophia reminded me of one of those french art students, who are constantly cynical and smoking a fag. but i did what i was told and removed my boxers.
sophia pointed to the bed. i moved over to the edge and glanced over to the girls. caterina was the closest to me but still had her back towards me. she was holding alana, who had her back to caterina. i lifted up the blanket and slid into the bed. as i slid across the middle of the bed, i realized that as i had the blanket up, the shadows and orange light from the candles were dancing on the slender, naked back of caterina all the way down to the lowest of her lower back, showing just a smidgeon of the rise of her bottom.
that view made my heart jump just a bit, before it was taken over by awkwardness. i laid on my back close to caterina, not really knowing what i should do. i looked over to sophia who had her back to me and was pulling the large coat over her head. while she hung her coat up in the closet, i had a complete view of her back of her entirely naked body. her thick, lush hair ran halfway down her back, swaying against her perfect light brown skin as she struggled with the closet door. never in my life had i seen such a perfect ass (not that i had seen any type of ass before - except maybe in the odd strip club). however, her ass was perfectly proportioned to the rest of the body. her tanned legs looked incredibly smooth and ran as long as a fire pole up her taut behind. as my eyes tried to work with my memory to save the image of her indefinitely, she turned around. i didn´t get a long look at the front, because she caught me staring at her and i was quick to try and save face by averting my gaze to the ceiling. but of what i did see was absolutely gorgeous. she had her arms crossed across her breasts, but once again, her front was well proportioned. all i remember seeing a small, rectangular patch of hair in between her bronzed legs.
