"Liz! Why aren't you ready yet? Ughhhh!" groaned Jayme as she stormed into my hotel room. "What's the hold up? C'mon Liz. Everybody is waiting on us at the spot."
It's our college homecoming weekend and my best friend Jayme is the least patient person in the worldโat least I think so. We met back during orientation our freshman year of college and have been stuck like glue ever since.
We graduated 10 years ago, so tonight our class was having a mix and mingle. I debated on even coming, but Jayme was persistent and insistent that I come with her. Only, she suggested we get separate rooms in case we get luckyโand I don't mean in the casino kind of way.
Both Jayme and I are what you would consider BBWs. I'm about 5'2", have thighs that rub together, and rock a size 46DD bra. I have some jiggle, if you get what I'm saying, which I've been only recently came to accept and embrace. Jayme is taller than me by about six inches and a little smaller in all areas, but not much. We're both dark brown skin, with my shade a slightly darker, closer to a dark chocolate color.
I was in the bathroom styling my hair when I heard Jayme say "Oh no!"
Within seconds, Jayme was at the bathroom door holding up my outfit for the night.
"You're not wearing this tonight are you?" she questioned.
"Yeah. It's comfortable and cute. Unlike you, I just want to chill," I responded as I grabbed the pair of jeans and fitted shirt with the college name. "It's a mix and mingle right? So we're just going to catch up, chat and see what everyone is up to nowadays. It's not a date or club thing."
"Chill? You need to find you some dick. Ever since you and Vic broke up you've been in a slump. Some good dick will solve that quick and I'm not talking about that little friend you packed," she said laughing. "But for real, so what it's a mix and mingle? Make'em turn heads and shit. Make'em say 'Dammmmnnnnn, Liz got it going on!' because you do girl. Now, what else do you have in here?"
Jayme retreated to dig through my suitcase. After a few moments, she yelled "I'll be back" and left.
Not thinking anything of it, I finished my hair and as I was preparing to put on my clothes, I heard Jayme swipe the entry card and walk in with what looked to be a black dress and red pumps.
"Here, put this on," she demanded. "I bought it last week because I just knew this clothing travesty was going to happen."
I took the dress and held it up. "Where's the rest of it Jayme?"
"That's it," she said laughing. "You're going to show some skin tonight honey. I know you like to dress conservatively and whatnot, so it's not too much skin. Just enough to get everyone's attention. Trust me, you'll look good in it."
"Fine, but if anything is falling out of itโboob, butt, anything, I'm wearing my jeans and shirt," I responded.
After putting it on, I must admit. I did look good! It was a little snug, but showed all the right curves and the deep neck cut displayed a little cleavage. The back of the dress cinched right above my ass, so it gave me a nice curve. The dress stopped about mid-thigh so it was shorter on me than I would have chosen, but overall, not bad. Jayme did well with this one.
"See? Told you!" shrieked Jayme as she looked me over. "Looking good Miss Liz! Let's go get some dick!"
After arriving at the spot, we discovered were actually quite on time. Most people were also just arriving. Jayme and I split for a little while catching up with former classmates. She was right again. I saw some of the men, and women, look at me as I walked by. I must admit, I did enjoy the attention, but hooking up with someone tonight wasn't on my mind.
But, that quickly changed when I saw him. Professor Jones.
In college, all the girls wanted to take his history class. A clean-cut, athletic guy, he was also the youngest professor at the college at the time. In his late 20s or early 30s by my guess. Oh, and he had a deep voice to die for.
He was wearing dark slacks and a red button down shirt with the top button unfastened. He was a little more muscular than I remember. And instead of the clean-cut look he once had, he now had a goatee with a couple of grey streaks running through it. Despite the change, he was still fine.
He stood over near the back room talking with some guys I remember from some of my classes. Being the person I am, I didn't want to interrupt so I kept working the room until I saw Jayme again. We sat down on a nearby sofa and started sharing who we talked to while sipping on strawberry daiquiris.
"Oh, and did you see Professor Jones?" said Jayme. "I'm shocked there wasn't some scandal back in the day with that man. I know he could've had sex with any one of us girls. I don't know anyone who wasn't attracted to him."
"Right! He's still fine. But, he's probably all married and tied down now," I responded.
After a while, we noticed the crowds started getting thinner. David, the organizer of the mix and mingle, came over and gave us a run down of the weekend's events. The weekend was going to be full, but maybe it was worth coming after all.
Finally the time came for the mix and mingle to come to an end. We started heading out of the building, when I heard someone with a deep voice say "Elizabeth? Is that you?"
I turned around to find that it was Professor Jones calling my name.
