Joe and Tia worked for the same startup out of college. Both were bright and had done well in their courses. But Joe realized that while he was an unremarkable nerd, Tia was drop dead gorgeous. She was confident and brazen, always picking on him to try and draw him out of his shell. But they had a lot of mutual respect over each other's coding skills and were able to maintain a good level of work banter.
Their colleague Leah was a few years older and just out of a painful divorce. She was ashamed of her body, having added a few pounds because of what she'd gone through and lacked confidence. But her and Tia had slowly formed a friendship, going out for drinks and hanging out a lot. Tia slowly built her confidence back up, getting her to dress in more revealing clothing, flirt a bit, and basically blossom a little to realize she had worth even if her ex-husband didn't realize it.
Leah had invited them over for a game night at her place. They'd grown comfortable after a few hours of gaming and some alcohol. Though towards the end of the night Leah had gotten a little too drunk and voiced some of her insecurities. How she was worried no one would ever desire her again and that she was destined to be alone.
Joe leaned in earnestly to her, looking her directly in the eyes. "I don't think you are. You are a wonderful person. Your intelligence and skill at work really helps me and Tia. You've shown grace as we leveled up our own skill sets. And, at the risk of an HR issue, you're beautiful. Your curves are enticing, your smile lights up the room, and your sense of humor is lovely. Any guy - or gal - would be lucky to have you. You just have to find one that's right for you."
Tia took this all in reflectively. She'd never seen this earnest and empathetic side of Joe before. To be honest, it kind of turned her on. He normally wasn't her type physically but his mind definitely intrigued her and now he was showing a level of emotional intelligence and grace that was really hot in a field full of dudebros. Maybe she hadn't given him a real chance?
They finished up their gaming, both giving Leah a hug and thanks for hosting before walking out to their cars. Tia pauses before heading their separate directions. "Hey, you're into video games too right? You want to swap tags and play sometime?"
Joe blinked, taken aback. Did he want to game with one of the hottest and most interesting women he knew? "Yeah, definitely! That would be awesome."
They exchanged tags and drove home. The next few weeks they'd slowly built up their rapport as they shared multiple gaming sessions. They would use Discord to chat while playing, becoming more comfortable with each other as their banter became more friendly and playful. Both did some light flirting but knowing they worked together nothing really came of it despite the mutual attraction they were unaware of.
One night as Tia signed in to the private chat he noticed her camera was on. Occasionally one or both would have them on but mostly they used only voice chat, so he didn't think too much of it. Until something about it caught his eye and he expanded the chat window. He then realized the camera being left on must have been a mistake. Because as she quipped with him casually in the game she was sitting before her camera topless. There, the girl he'd been secretly crushing on for over a year was casually revealing herself to him. He was speechless for a moment, taking in her large, firm tits. Her long nipples were thick and erect, obviously turned on for some reason. They were, in a word, exquisite.
After she chided him for not paying attention in the game, he refocused. Obviously she didn't realize she was sitting in front of her camera flashing him. Mentioning it might embarrass her, so he just ignored it as much as he could. They continued with the gaming session for another hour with him taking only occasional glances before they decided to take a break and swap games. It took all his willpower to remain stoic as she leaned back in her chair, stretching her arms over her head and pushing her chest out towards the camera provocatively. It was even more difficult when she excused herself and stood up, gathering some trash on her desk before stepping away for a moment. Because, in that moment, he realized she wasn't topless but completely naked as, in standing, she'd brought her pussy into frame for several moments. His mouth hung open as her shaved slit was showcased for him before she turned and walked away.
Joe decided to get up, use the restroom, and refill his water as well as try to clear his head. However when he came back he noticed the camera was off now. As he announced himself he could tell by her voice that she'd realized what had happened.
"So... I just realized I'd left my camera on when I hopped into Discord. And, well, I might have given you a show I hadn't realized. I'm sorry about that. I wasn't trying to tease you or anything, it really was a mistake."
Joe took a deep breath. "I'm sorry too. I should probably have said something when I first noticed it but based on how you were behaving I realized it was accidental. I didn't want to make you uncomfortable so I figured I'd just pretend nothing was happening. Do you always game naked and I just never knew? Actually, never mind, that's probably not appropriate to ask. I was just curious."
She laughs. "I mean, sometimes? I'm pretty comfortable naked but I also don't go around flashing my friends. To be honest during college, I used it to my advantage. I was a camgirl and made decent money which allowed me to pay for school and make my own hours. After I took this job I already had a pretty good audience so I just kept going - mostly for fun but also because it was nice to have the extra money. I've been saving for a house. I had a session right before our gaming time and just forgot to turn the camera off."
"That's fair. And I can't really blame you. It's your body, you can do what you want with it. And I promise if you forget somehow in the future I'll speak up so you can cover up. I know you didn't intend to show me that."
"Thanks." She said, "I mean, I don't particularly mind. I'm on the internet, so you could have found me before now. I was more worried you would think I was trying to tease you or something by pretending nothing was going on. It really was a mistake."
"Tia, it's fine. No harm, no foul. I can't say I'll forget it - sorry, but your body is amazing. But this doesn't have to change anything, it was a mistake and we move on."
