...
A day later, you're back at home, to the warm welcome of your housemates. They order delicious takeout for dinner, and you stuff yourself full, grateful for the food after the miserable hospital meals.
"Thank you all so much for this. It's good to be back."
"We're glad to have you back, too," Lily chimes in.
The conversation quickly moves on to future plans, but you find yourself withdrawing more and more from the lively discussion.
"Looks like you have a lot on your hands... pet."
Your mind circles around those words, making you visibly furrow your brows.
"Hey, are you ok?" Imane leans over and whispers. "Everything alright?" She repeats.
You look up and see concern written across her innocent face.
"Yeah, yeah, I'm alright. Just tired. I should get to sleep." You force a weak smile.
She subtly reaches under the tablecloth and gently laces her fingers with yours, giving your hand a small squeeze before letting go and patting you on the knee.
"Rest up. You've had a tough couple of days."
Oh, you have no idea...
You head to bed, accidentally laying eyes on the woman's card on your desk, which you reluctantly kept with you on the trip back home.
I don't have a choice. I'm gonna have to call her. But not now. Not today.
You crash onto your bed, grateful for the comfortable cushioning as you stare at the sliver of moonlight shining through your curtain.
...
"Hey, Rae?"
"Hey, babe, what's up?"
"Sorry if it's too early in the morning. I hope I didn't wake you."
"No, I was already up. I have a shoot today."
"Oh, ok- wait a shoot? For what?"
"Inferno! Bella Poarch's new music video!"
"Oh, really?!?"
"Wait, didn't you hear about it? So many of our friends are in it!"
"No, I didn't... I guess being mostly alone in a hospital for the last few days might be the reason for that."
"Oh, true..."
"Well, actually, that could still work..."
"Work? What do you mean?"
"Well..." You grimace at the thoughts of the woman, and you can't help but glance over again at her card. You almost threw it out, but you knew it was too risky. "I kind of need a distraction..."
"A distraction? Oh, you mean you wanna come along? Yeah, I'd love that! I was considering asking you, but I wasn't sure if you'd have the energy enough for it."
"Yeah, I'd love to come along. And besides, since you're gonna be in the video, I gotta support my girl!"
"Haha! Great! We'll pick you up in half an hour! Be ready!"
"Thanks, Rae. I'll see you later. Love you!"
"Love you! Byeeee!"
You breathe a sigh of relief as you hang up the phone, grateful for anything to get your mind off the... peculiar circumstance you were in.
...
"Hey, you! Wake up!"
"Oh, shit, are we there already?" Jolting up from your nap, you nearly hit your head on the roof of the car.
"Yup! It wasn't too long of a drive. Come on out!"
You step out into the parking lot, seeing a range of trailers and people bustling about.
"OMG, look!"
Rae runs over to the trailer with her name on it, ogling it and melodramatically clutching her hands to her chest. "It's mine!"
She doesn't hesitate to step inside, gasping at its spaciousness. You follow her in, nodding your head in approval.
Wow. This is certainly high-quality. I'm glad they're treating her right.
"Oh, by the way..."
"Yeah?" You ask, turning to face her.
"Gabe, my 100 Thieves assistant, is supposed to be my camera guy today, but I was wondering if you also wanted to do some photo-taking. You know, since you might have nothing else to do."
"Oh, I don't know... maybe I'll just let Gabe handle it. I want to make sure you get good pictures."
"Oh, no, he'll be taking pictures too, don't worry! We just have another camera."
"Oh! Hm... sure, why not?"
"Alright, now I need to try on some outfits, so step outside. Maybe take a look around the venue."
"What, I can't watch you?" You chuckle as she slaps you on the shoulder and blushes. You knew those kinds of jokes always embarrassed her.
"Just kidding, I'll be outside. Call if you need me." You briefly hug her before leaving, closing the door firmly shut behind you.
Just as you turn forward...
"OH!" You unknowingly walk into a figure, stumbling as you try to catch her before she falls.
You reach out your arms, somehow finding a way to keep her off the ground.
"I'm so sorry..." You gasp out as you set her straight.
"Thank you so much! Oh... you're... Rae's boyfriend, right? She told me about you!"
"Oh! Wow... uh, hello, Ms. Poarch!"
"Oh, come on, it's Bella."
"Ah, ok, Bella..." Still flustered from the accident, you take a moment to process what she said. "Oh, she told you about me? Only good things, I hope!"
"Oh, of course! Only great things..."
Truly looking at her for the first time, you briefly eye her up and down, immediately turning red.
"OH! Um..." You immediately close your mouth, cursing yourself for attracting attention.
"Hm?"
"Uh..." Your eyes gaze exactly where you try to prevent them from going for a split second, and you pray she doesn't notice.
"oh... hehe. You like my outfit?" She twists a strand of her hair and does a little body twirl, smirking to herself as she notices your eyes bulge at the sight of her backside.
"Yeah, I really do..."
Shut up. Shut up shut up shut up. Please shut up.
"Hehe. I had a feeling you would."
Your eyes snap up to hers, and you sense a growing mischievousness in her devilish, flirtatious smile.
"Anyway, I have to go now... but I'll talk to you later."
"Ah, ok, sure. I'll see you around," you briefly blurt out, wishing to escape as soon as possible to save yourself any more embarrassment.
"Hey, " she briefly adds on, "you can watch me as I leave."
...what? Why would she say- Oh my...
You watch as she walks away, her firm butt swaying with each step, its motion tantalizing and practically hypnotizing you. She takes a brief glance over her shoulder and sees you staring, imperceptibly smiling at the sight.
She definitely knows what she's doing. There are no two ways about it.
As soon as she enters her trailer, adjacent to Rae's, you shake your head, dispelling the thoughts she put in your head.
...
"Hey! How would I look in this?"
"Wow, you'd look amazing!" You gesture at the black dress Rae was holding, picturing her in it.
"Aw, really? Thanks! I'll try it on!"
You had all just finished the first set of scenes, and now everyone was given a break to prepare and change for the next scene. You had watched Bella and the rest of your friends act out their parts as you watched and occasionally took pictures.
Standing up for the first time in hours, you stretch yourself out, careful not to drop the camera.
"Hey!"
You twirl around, instantly turning red at the voice you recognize, but trying to keep your cool.
"Oh, hey, Bella..."
"Hey! I noticed you have a camera with you."
"Yeah, I'm taking some pictures for Rae."
"Hm. Well, I'm sure she wouldn't mind If I steal you for a second, right?"
"Uh.... why?"
"I want to try on some outfits, but I want to see how they look on camera. You know, with lighting and stuff."
"Oh..."
Shouldn't she be asking one of the professional photographers for this? Hmm. Well, I might as well...
"Alright, you can go change, and I'll wait out here for- "
"What? No way! The least I can do in return is let you relax for a bit in my trailer. Come on, come inside!"
"Ah... ok, fine."
It was getting a bit chilly, and the trailer emanated warmth.
You step inside, taken aback once more at its spaciousness.
"It's big, right? There's room for all kinds of things..."
She steps into her closet without another word, and you hear her changing. You settle on a chair, next to her vanity mirror, looking at the massive variety of makeup products.
She steps out, striking a little pose as you ready the camera.
You take a few pictures from different angles, unsure of your technique.
You show them to her, and she analyzes them closely.
"Hmm... maybe not this one. I'll try another."
She quickly steps back in, but before you know it, she went back in to try her third outfit after immediately disliking the second.
"This one is really special. I think you'll like this one."
"Oh, good."
Wait. She thinks... I will like it? Why...
She steps out, wearing nothing but a small bra and panties.
You immediately shield your eyes, but not before you get a full view of her slender body and busty chest.
"Sorry. I left a piece of it somewhere outside. Oh, it's right here..."
She stops and looks at you, noticing the blushing mess you had just become.
She slowly walks toward you, raising an eyebrow questioningly.
"What's the matter? Never seen a girl like this before?" She teases.
You look back up from behind your hand, careful not to let your vision move from her face.
"No, I... I just didn't expect..."
"Look at you. You're trying so hard to not stare at me." She giggles, shaking her head as she continues. "You can look if you want. I won't tell." She seductively places a finger on her lips.
She's toying with me... That must be it! She's trying to make a fool out of me!
You don't let yourself look, not wishing to amuse her any longer.
"Oh... you don't want to look... you want to touch me, too."
You let out a small squeak at her comment, bolstering her confidence.
She picks up your hand, moving it toward her chest as she walks toward you.
And as soon as it makes contact with her soft flesh, every thought of leaving disappears. You wrap your hand around her breast, squeezing lightly through the bra.
What the- !
She smiles and encourages you to put your other hand on her. You place the camera down and massage her chest, making her breathing shallower as you pull down her bra and play with her nipples.
Damn, she's so hot... I don't know why she's doing this... but how can I complain?
Her hands snake around your neck, pulling you closer in an embrace as her fingers tangle themselves in your hair.
She leans down and pulls your chin toward her, closing her eyes as her lips meet yours.
You inhale her perfume, kissing her deeper as your hands instinctively start to move lower, reaching the hem of her panties.
You start to play with it, your hands edging closer to her butt as she starts to moan lightly into your mouth.
"~~ah yeah... keep rubbing your fingers into my hips... oh... fuck yeah..."
Her hand reaches towards your cock, reaching the tent in your pants and slowly rubbing the fabric.
She pulls away, pulling off her bra entirely and pulling your pants off in one swift motion.
She gets on her knees, and you close your eyes, readying yourself.
"...get the camera."
"Huh?" You ask, opening your eyes in confusion.
She points next to you, and you silently reach for it, not understanding.
"Why?" You ask again.
"Why do you think? Start recording, hun."
Your eyes widen as you realize what she might be implying. But unsure of whether that was her true intention, you turn on the camera, pointing it toward her.
"You're gonna love watching this later."
"Wha-OH!"
She grabs her breasts and dives down on your cock, engulfing you in warmth. You steady the camera, groaning as she quickens her pace, her soft mounds bouncing up and down on you. She looks into the camera, grinning as she worked to please you.
You lean back and squeeze your eyes shut, taking in the sensation.
You place your hand on her head, guiding her to go even faster. She jiggles her breasts, making you shiver in pleasure as she giggles.
She watches you closely, noting which motions made you groan.
Holy shit.
She lightly licks the tip of your cock with each stroke, pushing you even closer and making you moan in delight as she winks toward the camera.
You wrap your hand in her hair as she lets you push her even faster. After a few more minutes, you feel yourself approaching the brink.
"I'm gonna- "
She pulls away, using her hands to finish you off as you release, making sure not to get any on her as you buck your hips in pleasure.
You slowly open your eyes and recover, noticing that the camera was miraculously still in your other hand. But before you can think any further, she grabs it from you and points it in your direction.
"Huh?" You ask, still disoriented from the ecstasy.
"Your turn. You know what to do, right?"
She sits down on the bed, slides off her panties, and spreads her legs.
Even if you could think straight, you wouldn't have been able to resist her.
You crouch down, reaching your mouth towards her wet spot.
She lets out a loud moan as you make contact, your lips and tongue sweeping over her sensitive spot.
She wraps her legs around your neck, pulling you in even closer as you push your tongue into her.
"AH~~ Yes, just like that... Oh, fuck, even better than Rae said it was..."
Wait, what?
You pull away, leaving her disappointed as you look at her inquisitively.
"Wait, Rae... told you... about..."
"Hey! I didn't say you could stop!"
She pushes your head back down, stifling your complaints.
"...yeah, she told me. Girls talk about that stuff, you know. And knowing that you and her aren't exclusive, well... I had to see for myself."
Wow. That's... unexpected.
You work harder, encouraged by her moans and wanting her to cum quickly so you could finally breathe.
You start to use your fingers, lightly rubbing her clit and licking it to push her to the brink. Her strong thighs squeeze your head in response as she sharply arches her back and clutches the sheets underneath her.
"Yes, I'm so close, so close..."
With one final push, she squeezes her eyes shut as she cums and releases a guttural moan, her juices splashing onto your mouth.
You sit there for a few more seconds, waiting as she finishes riding out her orgasm.
"Wow. That was- "
Knock knock knock.
"What the-! Oh fuck, get off me, " Bella quickly whisper-shouts, the reality of the situation coming back to her as she motions for you to stand up.
You back away, but quickly move forward again to stop Bella from falling as she tries to stand up, her knees almost buckling.
"Shit, give me a minute to recover. Answer the door."
"Won't they be suspicious- "
"Answer the door."
You move toward the door, gulping and preying that no one heard what you two were doing.
You slide the door open.
"Hey Bel- OH! HEY! What are you doing in there? I've been looking for you for 10 minutes! I was worried!"
"Oh, hey Rae! I was, uh... helping Bella. She asked me to take pictures of her." You eye her dress up and down, noting how well it fit her.
"Oh... right, I forgot you had that camera. Speaking of which, where is it?"
You look down at your empty palms, realizing that Bella must have still had it.
"Oh, you mean this one?"
Bella's voice from behind you startles you, and you turn and look.
The quivering, moaning mess of a minute ago was now the nicely dressed, confident-as-ever woman, holding our camera and handing it back to you.
"Oh! Uh... Hi, Bella," Rae's slightly shaky voice responds.
"Oh, whoops. Must have left it back there," you sheepishly add.
"Well, can you take some pictures of me, too?"
"Yeah, sure thing, Rae."
Rae slowly steps away back to her trailer, lifting up her dress with each step.
"You might not want to let Rae see those videos," Bella winked with a growing smirk as her hand grazes your cheek. She turns away and closes the door behind her.
Yeah... she might be right about that...
You turn back around and see... Rae's suspicious gaze lock eyes with your nervous glance.
"Uh, Rae? Are you ok?" You walk towards her, away from Bella's trailer.
"What did she just say?"
"Huh?"
"Bella. What did she just say to you? Why did she wink?" Her tone becomes slightly antagonistic, slightly raising in volume.
"Uh... nothing?"
Why am I hiding this from her? I didn't do anything wrong, right? ...Well... I guess I came here for her, and now I'm getting... distracted with another woman. I guess it's expected that she's getting a little angry.
"..."
"..."
"Any chance I could see the pictures you've taken so far?" She nonchalantly asks, carefully paying attention to your reaction.
"Uh... well, I should probably touch them up first. Make them look good, you know. The power of editing, as they say."
"Hmm, I'm sure," she replies, her tone dripping with sarcasm.
Unsure of how to get yourself out of this, you stay silent.
Daring a glance at her, you see her face turn conflicted with subtle emotion.
"We need to talk. As soon as this shoot is done. I have something I need to say."
Oh fuck. She knows. No doubt. This doesn't look good.
"Uh, yeah sure. Of course, babe."
Trying to reason with her statement, you wrestle with ideas in your head.
Did her policy of an open relationship only apply to some girls? Did she not want me to do anything with Bella in particular? Damn, what is it? What's gonna happen?
...
"Damn, that was a hell of a day." Rae leans back in the back seat of the car, next to you.
"Yeah, I'll say. I'm tired and I wasn't even the one acting," you respond. It had been several more hours of shoots since the incident, and it had left your mind.
"I can't wait to see how the pictures turn out."
And suddenly, it all came rushing back. Remembering what videos were on that camera. Remembering the things you did.
Seemingly picking up on your tense silence, Rae brings the conversation back to her previous words.
"Can I tell you now? What I wanted to say before?" Her tone suddenly becomes quiet and timid.
"Yeah... sure."
Eyeing the driver sitting in the front seat, she beckons you to lean in closer so she could whisper.
You scoot in closer, prepared for the worst, but reassured by her tone, which didn't seem angry. In fact, it sounded more nervous than anything.
Why would she be nervous? And why does she look worried?
"So... I know what you did with Bella. Obviously. And that's ok. But I realized that..."
Her voice trails off, and you pull away to look at her.
Her face is fraught with emotion, and you gently place a hand on her cheek to calm her down. She takes a breath, recovering herself as you watch in concern, and leans into you to finish.
"I realized that I'm jealous. But... not of her. I was jealous of you."
And with a final breath, she whispers the last words you ever expected to hear on that day.
"I think I'm also into girls."
