Sexcapades: Lockdown lookout unlocked  

In 2020, me and my boyfriend were in lockdown separately. I was in my flat, he was at his parents’ house. It was around the time when we weren’t allowed to see anyone who wasn’t in your household. He told his parents he was going for a ‘walk’, and I picked him up. We ended up at what we thought was a secluded scenic lookout and began bumping uglies in the backseat. 

A few moments later, we saw police sirens. We thought it would be a good idea to keep quiet in the backseat since we fogged up the windows quite a lot.  

To our horror, one policeman started knocking on the driver's window. I'm desperately reaching for my pants, and another cop shines a torch inside the vehicle. 

They seemed to disappear as we scrambled to get our clothes on and that's when we realised they were waiting for us in their car. We lied and said we lived together, and I could've died of humiliation as they were smugly filling out the report. 

I ended up dropping him off at his place only to get pulled over by ANOTHER cop. She had to step away from the vehicle to take a message from the previous cops. A few moments later, she comes back with the same awkward, smug look on her face as the last cops and lets us off with a warning.
