An Unexpected Saviour

James turned around to let the angry woman blow off steam at him. Hopefully she would then get it out of her system and avoid getting the police involved at least.

"I suppose you think you are very clever walking around like this, making an exhibition of yourself and forcing everyone to look at your naked body. Well, you are nothing but a filthy pervert!"

At least James had no problem avoiding an erection here like he had with Mel. The woman had gone red in the face ranting at him and was wagging a finger at the naked man as if he were a naughty schoolboy. It didn't seem like she was in any mood to let up either.

"And another thing, what makes you think you can just walk in here, with children present and..."

"Look, I get it. I'm sorry, just let me buy the one thing I need and I'll be gone."

"No, you can't just walk away from this you.."

"Leave him alone!"

James was surprised to hear someone leaping to his defence and turned around to see a pretty, well dressed young woman glaring at the older woman and stopping her in her tracks. The woman looked a little nervous but also determined to stand her ground.

"You stay out of this, Miss!" the older woman threatened.

"No, I won't thank you very much. And you don't have to look at him if you don't want to. Although I notice your eyes keep glancing downwards when you think nobody is watching!"

Now it was the older woman's turn to get flustered. She put down her shopping basket in an exaggerated display of displeasure.

"That's it! I'm shopping somewhere else. This place is full of perverts!"

As the prudish woman left James thanked the younger woman who had leapt to his defence. She nodded back and smiled shyly before James quickly made his way to the toilet roll which was, unfortunately, all the way at the other end of the store. When he finally made his way back to the checkout area he was dismayed by how long the queues had got during this busy period. The self checkout area was a no go with the schedule so he would need to go to one of the cashier operated lines. All had at least three or four people in them, but as he looked at the amount of shopping in peoples trolleys and tried to guess which one would move most quickly he hears a familiar voice.

"Do you want to go ahead of me? You look like you are in a hurry!"

It was the young woman who had defended him earlier. He had to admit, as awkward as this was it would be nice to get to know her better and it would be the quickest way out of here.

"Thanks! I really appreciate it!" James smiled as he moved in front of her.
