So, a lot of story series after chapter one will recommend readers to go back and read previous chapters before checking out the current one. In this case, chapter one is essentially character setup with the two chapters originally being written as one long story. I split them up which meant most of the sexy stuff ended up in this part. So, if you just want smutty action, you can read this part first and get more character context later if you want to. You do you! ;P
For twenty minutes, Parker had kept an eye on Lily who appeared to be struggling. Unsure of the arrangements for the evening, Parker had decided to wait outside of Lily's building until she left and then planned to follow her to her destination. Lily had descended into the swanky lobby of her opulent apartment building and had been stuck there for some time. The huge bay windows gave Parker a clear view of her best friend. Parker felt so much empathy and concern for Lily as she looked extremely uncomfortable sitting in public. Any time someone left or entered the building, Lily would curl up and cover her face with her knees.
Parker had mixed feelings about the whole strange affair. This project appeared to be helping Lily control her extreme anxiety issues and even allowed her to be carefree enough to publicly blow a guy. Still, Parker could tell her best friend still struggled.
Finally, Lily left the building. Parker put up her hood and followed closely behind Lily, trying to keep out of sight just like in all of the spy or crime movies she had seen. After walking for a block, Lily swerved into an alleyway. Parker hurried and took cover behind the wall to peer down the narrow passage.
It was empty. Confused, Parker leaned in further, but then felt a hand on her neck and a quick shock. "OW!" she yelped as she stumbled. "What the hell?"
Lily stood behind Parker with a playful grin, a red glove on her left hand. "Where have you been, Sweetpea? I've been waiting in the lobby!"
Parker rubbed the back of her neck. "Well, it would have been nice if you told me where to go and at what time instead of being so mysterious."
Lily laughed as she patted Parker on the shoulder. "What's the fun in that? Come on up to my apartment. We need to get changed quickly since we have a long drive ahead of us."
As they walked through the pretentiously designed lobby, Parker looked at Lily who, in contrast to earlier, now exuded confidence and control. She had initially thought Lily was not acting like herself, but in actuality, the reverse seemed to be true; she acted like the Lily that Parker knew and loved, unencumbered by anxiety and dread.
After an elevator ride, Parker entered Lily's apartment, reminding the poor punk the stark differences in their economic statuses. Parker's cramped studio apartment would fit in this space five times over and Lily did not have to share her place with multiple types of vermin.
"Your outfit is in the bathroom along with all of the make-up you'll need," Lily said. "We have to be there by nine, so we can't take too long to get ready."
"Lollipop, at some point you're going to have to tell me what's going on."
"At some point I will, but for now, you're getting dressed."
Parker sighed as she entered the bathroom. She stripped off her current clothes as she looked at the impressive outfit intended for her. "Hey, Lollipop," Parker called out, "you forgot to include underwear."
"Yeah, sure. I
forgot
," Lily called back sarcastically, which made Parker smirk.
First, she put on the flared tartan miniskirt which had a purple flannel pattern that went down a little past her mid-thighs. She then put on the silky and sleeveless light violet button-down collared top, followed by a black leather half-jacket. Next were the accessories including a studded collar, a studded bracelet, a spikey fashion belt for around her waist, and black fishnet stockings. A pair of black heeled leather boots that reached to her calves completed the ensemble. After applying her make-up, Parker had to deal with the fact she had never looked hotter.
Upon leaving the bathroom, Parker first saw a wrapped purple package on the coffee table with a big bow on top. She then saw Lily exit her bedroom and her jaw immediately dropped. The two outfits were complimentary but themed differently with Parker's version being punky and Lily's version being preppy. Lily wore a white button-down collared shirt, a half-jacket that resembled a varsity jacket, a red choker with a metal heart in the center, a large white fashion belt with a red buckle, a red patterned flared tartan skirt, white stockings, and red leather heeled boots.
"Jesus fucking Christ," gasped Parker. "Maybe I shouldn't have pushed you so hard to be outgoing after all! You're just too much competition!" Parker then noticed that Lily had tied her long red hair into a braided ponytail. "Should of I had done my hair up like yours?"
Lily shook her head. "No, I think your hair being loose works better for your look. I have one more thing for you to wear." Lily grabbed the gift and handed it to Parker. Parker quickly opened it and discovered, to her delight, a new glove.
Unlike her current glove, this one looked more like a gauntlet yet still appeared sleek. Parker looked at the palm to see a new pattern of bumps and curves with the bottom of the glove being a lighter shade of purple than the top of the glove. "See? I told you I would give you an upgrade." Lily raised her left hand revealing an identical one, only in red. "It has less kickback, and you can adjust the level of shock it gives. It also vibrates now for some extra pleasure options. Plus, now that I have given more hand jobs and fingerings, I made modifications to make it feel even better for your lucky partners."
Parker eagerly put on the glove and learned how to change the settings by using buttons hidden in the wrist area. "Wait, fingerings? Serious? You got all up in a lady's warm special place?"
"Multiple ladies," Lily chuckled as she grabbed her keys. "Come on. I hate being late."
Parker raised an eyebrow. "You really aren't going to tell me where we're going or even what we'll be doing when we get there?"
Lily paused and crossed her arms. "You always talk about how you feel the happiest when you're performing, right? Well, we're going to put on a show."
