"You decided faster than I expected."
I shrugged. I was sitting across from Smitty at one of the long dining tables going over the details of how the character concept would work. We had already come up with solutions for most of my main concerns, and now we were just fleshing out the details. "Well," I explained as I looked up from the page I was writing on, "I don't really have a problem with the nudity per se. My main concern was how certain people would react, but I'm not worried about that anymore."
I thought back angrily at the look of satisfaction I had seen on Gregg's face.
"Yeah, I think we found a good solution for that." Smitty patted the small device sitting on the bench next to him.
I smiled as I broke out of the memory. He wasn't talking about the same thing I was, but that was fine. I'd rather the fewer people who knew, the better.
I felt someone come up behind me. "Do you mind if I steal her away now? I would like to help her with her costume."
Smitty and I both looked at the costume mistress. She was holding a small box, and smiling like a kid with a new toy.
"Oh. I wasn't going to bother with the dress."
"I know." She shook the box and I heard a rattling sound. "I wanted to try out some ornamentation that I haven't had a chance to. I'm Meaghan, by the way."
"Hi Meaghan, I'm Rachel." I held out my hand and she shook it. Turning back to Smitty, I asked, "is there anything more you need me for?"
"Not that I can think of. I'm just going to work on some plot over here. I think we should have your character come in just after dinner. It should still be warm enough at that point. We'll just need to keep you out of sight until then."
I nodded, and Meaghan grabbed me by the arm and pulled me towards her costuming station. "That gives us a lot of time. This will work out great." She stood me up in front of a mirror, then slowly rotated me around in a circle. She seemed deep in thought, so I just let her do her work. She set the box down on a small side table and opened it up. I looked down and saw a variety of different beads and crystals of all different shades and styles separated into their individual sections.
"A glamour should look glamourous," Meaghan said, mostly to herself. "Let me see. Nicely tanned. No real bra line?" Meaghan looked up at me, questioningly.
"I told you the nudity wasn't really an issue. I usually sunbathe topless in my yard."
Meaghan nodded. "That makes things easier. I won't need to use too much tanner for concealment. Now off with the bottoms."
"What?" I looked around the room. Everyone had stopped what they were doing and were now looking at me.
Meaghan didn't even bother to look around the room. "If you can't strip naked in front of this small group, how are you going to be naked in front of 82 guys and 24 girls for the rest of the week?"
I closed my eyes and released the drawstring on my skirt. I let it fall, and quickly pushed my panties off as well. There was some slight murmuring from the other people in the room, but I was soon distracted by Meaghan's attentions.
"Nicely trimmed." I blushed. I had been expecting some "quality time" with my boyfriend this week. That wasn't going to happen now. "Would you mind if I did some shaping with it though?"
