CHAPTER 11
Presley
I slip on my little strapless black dress, smiling at my reflection. We’ll see if Kyler can resist when he sees me in this tonight. I’m hoping the answer is no. My body’s been in a constant state of need since this afternoon, only made worse when he came up to me in the parking lot and pressed his hardness against me, whispering “You’re it” before he walked away. We used to play tag all the time when we were kids, but this version is so much more fun.
I thought as soon as Kyler learned what I’d done to Sophie, he’d run. But he didn’t even look disappointed, and that… has me wanting more from him.
“Wow, you look so hot,” Ruby says, coming out of the bathroom. I turn and smile. Hot is definitely what I’m going for.
“Thank you. Now it’s time for us to make you look hot, too.”
“No.” She shakes her head. “I’ll never be hot.”
Says the girl who has curves women would kill for. I take her hand and lead her to my full-length mirror. “Do you see yourself, Ruby? You’re a total knockout. Chase couldn’t even take his eyes off you when you came out of the locker room. Your body is beautiful. Can’t you see that?”
Her eyes travel down the length of her reflection. “I’m chubby and my boobs are way too big. They make me look top-heavy.”
I shake my head. How can she not see how gorgeous she is? “First of all, you have tits that guys go crazy for. And in no way do they make you look top-heavy or fat or whatever you think. Not only that, but guys want some meat on a girl. They like having something to grab onto. You should embrace your curves. I would if I were you. I’d be showing them off every chance I got. I definitely wouldn’t hide under those huge sweatshirts.”
Her lips start to quirk into a smile, and there’s a glimmer of confidence starting to part the clouds that always seem to be looming over her. “Do you really think so? You don’t think my boobs look saggy?”
Saggy? “No way! How could you even think that?”
“Because Cassie used to always call me saggy tits.”
Oh my God, I fucking hate that girl. No wonder Ruby struggles with her body image. She had Cassie beating her down all these years.
“Let me tell you something.” I turn her around to face me. “The only reason Cassie said that is because she envies you. Her body doesn’t even come close, Ruby. And I’m not saying that to make you feel better. It’s the truth. Please don’t take anything she said to heart. You’re beautiful. Inside and out.”
There are tears in her eyes and I feel mine filling too. I think it’s time to lighten the mood.
“And if I had tits like yours, I’d be putting them out there for the world to see. And for the guys to enjoy.” I give her a wink.
She shakes her head. “Really? You don’t think I’d look like a fool dressing like you.”
“Are you kidding? You looked hot in my clothes today. You rocked that outfit better than me.”
Her smile has me heading right into my closet and picking out the perfect outfit for her. Tonight, she’s going to look fire.
