Chapters (74)
“No, but I don’t want him to either,” Leigh said chewing on her lower lip as she shifted back and forth in front of the mirror.
“Jared is not Michael,” Angel said sternly, setting down her eyeliner and snatching the leather straps away from Leigh. “He loves you for you. You don’t need to change.”
“Definitely,” Lexie agreed vehemently. “Especially not your style. He likes your style. Marissa used to wear stuff like this just to make him jealous. If the only reason you’re going to wear it is because you think he’ll like it – don’t. I’m not saying he won’t like it, but it will bring up a lot of questions.”
“Oh.”
“Do you want to do something different with your hair or make-up?” Ellie asked. She felt a little bad at how disappointed Leigh looked. Maybe part of her wasn’t thinking about Jared getting bored at all, maybe part of her just wanted to try something new. “Or maybe just try one new piece of clothing instead of going straight for the leather bondage dress?”
“I’ve got an extra one of these,” Lexie said, plucking at her mesh shirt. Although Leigh had a serious booty, up top she was slimmer and smaller like Lexie, so she’d easily fit into Lexie’s top, especially since it was slightly stretchy. “What color bra did you wear today?”
“Black,” Leigh said, a little hesitantly but with growing excitement. “Do you think it would go with my skirt?”
“Black goes with everything,” Angel told her. “Go try it on and we’ll see how it looks.”
Michael was standing in the lobby, talking to Jared, when the ladies walked in, followed by a bemused looking Adam. It was cool enough in the evenings now that they all needed to wear coats which covered up their outfits, but as they started taking the coats off, Michael saw the reason for Adam’s expression. Angel was wearing one of the low cut silky baby-doll slips she was becoming known for in her pregnancy, Lexie’s mesh shirt and shorts were her usual attire, and Ellie looked curvy and luscious in her black corset and tight red PVC skirt, however Leigh had gone off menu.
She looked nervous but adorable, sneaking glances at Jared as she opened her jacket and let it slide off her arms. The lavender mini-skirt she was wearing wasn’t unusual in and of itself, but she’d paired it with a black bra and black mesh shirt, making her look like Lexie’s taller, more nervous clothing twin.
He tilted his head so he could keep an eye on the ladies while also seeing Jared’s expression. Like Adam, Jared looked bemused. Like he wasn’t quite sure what to think about his girlfriend’s new attire.
