Having met at my place for drinks, and having discussed our pictures on the Amateur Photography threads at Literotica, and ending up masturbating next to (and on top of) each other while looking at pics of Libby going hard-core with her former boyfriend, Libby and I were now down by the pool mulling over a new idea.
"You know..." she had said; she had been reading through the comments posted in my Amateur Photography thread on Literotica, and something in her voice made me look up to see a bit of a wicked spark in her eye. "One of these guys has had a really good idea..."
"Yes...?" I prodded, matching her growing grin.
"He suggested that you and I get together and do a joint strip-tease."
"Sounds like a fucking awesome idea to me."
So we sat by the pool with fresh drinks, nutting out a rough plan of attack. Libby had gone to her car to fetch her camera and equipment, which she had thought to bring "just in case". It turned out to be a very fancy set-up: an expensive digital SLR, a tripod with motorised attachments to turn and swivel, and -- most importantly -- a remote control operating both tripod and camera, all the better for taking saucy self-portraits.
"It saves a lot of time," she explained, waggling the remote. "No need to run back-and-forth to the camera to set the auto-timer. And you can plug it in to your laptop while you're taking pics, review them straight away."
"Wow," I observed, a little unsteadily: the combined effects of a lot of alcohol and a recent series of self-administered orgasms were taking their toll. "It's as if they designed it for sexy self-portraiture!"
"Took me forever to find a camera like this," said Libby, with a wink. "Eventually I just walked into an electronics store, told the sales-guy exactly what I wanted the camera for, and he suggested this very model. He even gave me a hundred bucks off the price!" she added, with a naughty glint in her eye that added volumes to her tale.
I didn't miss the glint. "Libby..." I warned. "Don't tell me you did wicked things to the poor salesman to earn your discount?"
"No no -- all I did was give him the address for my thread on literotica," Libby demurred, with a grin. "I was tempted to offer him a blowjob, to score another couple hundred bucks off... but he had other customers to tend to."
"I dare say he would have gladly sacrificed their business for your 'discount'," I vouchsafed, grinning around my cocktail glass.
Libby laughed, as she finished setting up the camera and laptop. "Okay then: here's our backdrop," she announced.
I got up to see the screen: she had lined up the camera and adjusted the lens to take in a wide shot of the forecourt, with the pool shimmering aqua-green in the middle-ground under the evening lights and our leafy waterfall tumbling into the back of the pool in the background. "I've seen this before..." I reckoned. "I know: it's the backdrop from the scene where Neve Campbell and Denise Richards groped each other in 'Wild Things'!"
Libby took in the view on the screen, and she laughed again. "Holy shit -- so it is!" she realised; as she did I could see thoughts and ideas forming behind her eyes, and she turned to me with a smoky, sultry look indeed. "Say, Kelly..." she began. "Do you want to take it that far?"
"That far? What -- you and I, groping each other?" I checked.
She nodded, the smokiness in her eyes increasing by a factor of ten.
I knew my answer, but I wanted to know hers. "Do you??" I quizzed, with a grin all the same.
Again, she said nothing, a simple shrug sufficient in her response.
I was mildly surprised at that, but not overly so -- so Libby wasn't averse to a grope of my goodies, eh? "Well, I'd rather we didn't go that far," I had to admit. "It might be fun -- in fact, I'm sure it would be fun -- but I don't want to be unfaithful to my Tom. He's my husband, I love him and I don't ever want to see him groping another woman. So I don't think I should set a precedent."
Libby seemed to find the answer acceptable. "So how far will we go?" she asked, keen to set the ground rules.
"Well, not that far," I stated. "We'll see as we go... but not as far as groping."
"Okay, I'll put my suggestions to you before I do them," Libby promised me. "Well then: let's get into it, shall we? Give the punters what they want?"
"Let's shall," said I, and we both took our places before the camera, lining up in the shot with the scene on the laptop for reference. "A few poses fully-clothed, to begin?"
"That's my girl," Libby nodded, with approval. "Always start slow and steady. You've learned well."
"I was taught by the Master," I winked. And so we posed before the camera, a few feet of clear air between us as we pointed ourselves at the camera from various angles; Libby snapped a number of pictures by remote, setting a timer so she had time to hide the remote out of shot before the flash went off. We paused to wander over and check the results on the laptop: the pictures looked very good indeed, the scenes well-lit, my longish black dress with nice cleavage contrasting nicely against the jade-coloured iridescence of the pool and against Libby's short, strapless, tight-fitting white dress on the other side of the shots.
"Okay then," said Libby, as we agreed the pics were acceptable and wandered back to our positions to continue the series. "Now I'm trying to think like one of our fans, thinking what they'd most like to see... and I'm sure the next step in the series would be, for us to undress each other."
"Makes sense to me," I beamed. "We'll take it nice and slow, okay?"
"We will," Libby promised. "We'll undress each other slowly, piece by piece, buckle and zipper by buckle and zipper."
And so we moseyed over to each other, to stand closer together; Libby took both my hands and squeezed them tightly, and we decided to take a picture just like that, noting on the laptop that it looked really nice -- our friendship was clear to see in the pose, two BFFs standing near, warm and lovely.
"Okay," said Libby, in an uncharacteristically soft, beguiling voice. "You turn around... and I'll start to unzip you."
My heart was suddenly fluttery and flighty, skipping every other beat as I followed her instruction. I heard Libby step closer behind me, and heard the camera's lens whirring as she zoomed in via the remote, framing the scene on the laptop screen. Suddenly I felt Libby's palms -- hot and light -- placed gently on my back, just above each shoulder-blade; and then the camera's flash went off. Looking to the laptop I saw the picture playback: it was a beautiful shot, sultry in its simplicity, with Libby standing ever so close behind me with her hands like so on my back -- and we both had our heads bowed forwards and our eyes closed, sharing in the bliss of the moment.
"That's a nice shot," I murmured.
"It is," Libby agreed. "It only just occurred to me to take that shot; spur-of-the-moment kind of thing. Turned out well. Now..." she breathed, and I could feel the heat of her breath on the back of my neck, making my hairs stand tall and quiver deliciously. "I'm going to start unzipping you."
"Okay then..." I murmured, rather more tremulously than I would have preferred. Libby squeezed me on the arm, gently, reassuringly -- and then her fingers were at the zipper on my back, up high at my neck, and the zip started coming down... slowly... so slowly... and FLASH! went the camera.
"Mmm hmm," she noted approvingly, as we reviewed the shot -- most alluring, with the bare flesh of my upper back and my bra strap peeping through the unzipped gap, helping to advertise what was going on. "This time, angle your back just a tiny bit more towards the camera..."
"Like this?"
"Uh huh..." and the zipper came down more, slowly again, tantalisingly so, the flash coinciding this time with the zipper reaching the bottom of the track just below the beltline of my knickers. This pic came up even better, with the dress folding outwards very nicely, exposing yet more of my back, bra and a hint of my black lacy underwear -- and Libby standing back slightly, both to admire the view and to allow the camera an unfettered angle.
"Methinks it's my turn now," I declared, rounding on Libby with an enormous grin.
Libby smiled, but she didn't yet turn away, staying to look at me for a moment. "Kelly: I love that we're doing this," she told me. "This is so much fun... I'm so happy that you and I can share this together."
