“Vivi,” Kat said with that warm tone that implied her girlfriend needed to relax and enjoy the event, “I can’t think of something hotter than you getting boudoir photography done.”

Mouth agape, Vivian felt as if this was scarier than shopping for an engagement ring!

“This style of photography,” Lucy began, “is excellent for self-esteem building. Kat tells me that you’re interested in the ‘I’m Fucking Gorgeous’ package.”

“That’s why you brought me to this?” Vivian dropped her girlfriend’s hand. “I haven’t beenthatbad recently…”

“I mean, it’s also hot. Two for one?”

Lucy leaned in toward Vivian. “There’s also the opportunity for a couple’s photo toward the end. You wouldn’t be the only one dressing down for your significant other.”

Well, in that case…

It would be a few weeks before they received the final photos. The only way Vivian was able to get through the shoot was because she would soon have a sexy photo of her girlfriend wearing nothing… and that meantnothing…while sprawled out on a silk sheet and making come-hither eyes at the camera.

That photo of Kat, confidently showing off her body for nobody but her girlfriend? That was more inspiring than the half dozen shots of Vivian in a negligee any day.

Eat your heart out, Shari.Vivian thought that every time she saw the photo of her in her underwear on Kat’s nightstand.

It stayed there long enough to be dusted many, many times, and only left its perch when they moved in together. Eventually, other photos joined those old boudoir portraits, but some memories refused to wither away.
