Aubrey put on a heavy, glistening pink lipgloss--it left her lips looking like she had just licked them, minute after minute. She fixed her hair into two pigtails. She tied their bobbing lengths with bright blue ribbons. Then she rouged her cheeks with red blush. She applied a generous, but tasteful amount of perfume, even knowing it would hardly show up on camera, and then gave herself a smile in the mirror. She looked beautiful enough to be intimidating--and beautiful enough to be worth pursuing despite how imposing she was, if a guy was confident enough.
Aubrey liked the thought of a guy with the balls to think he could handle her.
"God, your skirt's tight, Aub. I mean, your ass is really pushing it out there... it's so high I can see your panties sometimes. What's with that? Did you take it in around the hips?"
Aubrey shrugged in response to Jenna's question. "I just have a nice ass. I do exercises."
"It looks soft," Jenna told her.
"You know it's not
that
soft," Aubrey replied.
Jenna fixed her hair, giving herself frayed bangs like Aubrey had across her forehead. She put on red lipstick and orange blush. Her make-up was light enough that her cute little freckles showed up on her pale skin, across the bridge of her nose and over her cheeks. She tied her hair back into a ponytail, which she twisted over her shoulder so it fell down the front of her body in a way that highlighted her cleavage. When she jutted out her chest, the end of her ponytail seemed to jump up in the air off her pert breasts like a kitten's little spiky tail.
"You think it's a good idea to show off your boobs?" Aubrey asked in her usual dry voice. "You don't have much to show off. But you've got a big ass. Maybe I should snip off some of your skirt."
"It's fine."
"You're still mad," Aubrey teased her.
"You're still being a bitch."
"I'm always a bitch," Aubrey pouted, before giving Jenna the crazed look that was her signature. "You
like
it."
"And you like my tits. Is that why you want me to hide them? You're jealous?"
"Jesus!" Aubrey laughed. "You really are hot and bothered."
She reached out her foot to flick up the length of Jenna's skirt.
"
Staph
it!" Jenna cursed, hating how immature she sounded.
As well as Aubrey was aging--and she was almost old enough to be Jenna's mother--she
looked
more like a glamorous older sister. One who could always make Jenna feel desperately childish. It gave her something of a leg-up in their relationship, but whereas Aubrey was all bristling indifference, Jenna ended up feeling even more motivated to top her.
That was the problem when two doms dated. There was no middle ground. They kept going at each other and seeing who landed on top.
They got in their Uber and rode to the studio in silence. The driver recognized them, but seemed to get off on the sultry vibe of their resting bitch faces. They got there, a lonely cabin overlooking the river, and once more commenced their rivalry. Aubrey paid the Uber man, while Jenna gave him a twenty dollar tip.
They walked up to the cabin and knocked as the Uber pulled away.
Peter answered the door. He wore a bathrobe over swim trunks. He'd obviously just gotten out of the river. His body was still damp, his hair slicked down. What they could see of his body, before he tied the belt firmly into place, was firm and toned. His stomach hard and ridged with muscle. For a photographer, he looked as good as the people he aimed a camera at.
"Oh, Jenna, Aubrey, hi. You're early."
"We thought you might not be able to wait for us," Aubrey cooed, walking in.
"Taking a cold shower?" Jenna further teased him, brushing against Peter as she came inside to one-up Aubrey.
"No, just... decompressing. It'll probably be a long day and I wanted to be nice and loose for it."
"Loose is fun," Aubrey replied. "Tight can be good too."
"So when do we start?" Jenna asked brightly, interrupting Peter before he could form a response to Aubrey's suggestive comment.
Peter shifted thankfully into work mode. "Well, I do things pretty minimalistic around here. Natural light, no crew. If you want to call some of your people in, that's fine, but usually folks appreciate having a certain quiet, a solitude, some breathing room..."
"Guess that's why you booked two of us," Jenna piped up. "What's better than breathing room with two women?"
Peter laughed nervously. "I don't hand out assignments to myself. The magazine wanted the two of you, with a certain theme... I'm happy to be working with you, but I'm low man on the totem pole. I'm sure your agents had way more to do with this than me!"
"Relax, Pete," Aubrey crooned to him, giving him a pat on the shoulder. "Jenna and I like your work. You make girls look real good, without being sleazy."
"Not
too
sleazy," Jenna clarified, sounding a little enthused with the notion.
"Definitely
some
sleazy," Aubrey agreed. "Like that last cover shoot you did. It's so obvious you wanted to fuck that redhead every second you had the viewfinder on her..."
Peter blushed, all boyish innocence despite his professionalism and success. "I, uh, err... well, she was very attractive, but I really just wanted to do a good job--focus on the work."
"Relax, Pete," Jenna told him. "That's how we want to come off. Like the man who's looking at us can't help but want to fuck us."
"I mean, authorial intent is vague at the best of times... I'll certainly try to do a good job," Peter assured them.
"Try to enjoy yourself," Aubrey advised him. "You're not taking pictures of some humanitarian crisis in Sudan. You're shooting the two of us dressed like cheerleaders. It's a joke, don't you get it? We're not exactly cheerleader material."
"You could've fooled me," Peter said softly.
"Would you have shown up to our games?" Jenna teased him. "When we did our cheers, would you root for the home team
so hard?"
"Let's take some pictures," Aubrey suggested. "I think wearing a bra that small is cutting off the air to Jenna's brains."
"I'm not wearing a bra," Jenna retorted.
