Mistress Elisha's Toilet
By BloodDiamonds
Lauren studied her reflection in the rearview mirror as she pulled her long blonde hair into a ponytail. She frowned.
Something's missing, she thought, as she felt around the cup holder for her glasses and perched them on her nose. Still unsatisfied with her look, she decided that would have to do. She sighed audibly as her hand traced the smoothness of the door handle, putting off the inevitable for just a moment longer. She nodded her head, worked the latch and swung her legs out the door in one quick motion.
The young woman exited her car, casting an apprehensive look at the house before her. Though it was a perfectly normal suburban residence, she couldn't shake her feeling of unease.
The evening was quiet and the sound of her car door reverberated throughout the subdivision. As she approached the house, her eyes drifted from the lush green lawn to the crisp bushes to the elegant stonework facade. The smell of newly turned earth and fresh cut grass hung in the warm air as she walked the brick path to the door.
Though Lauren tried to peer through the large glass window she could see nothing of the inside through its textured design. Clasping her notebook to her chest, she inhaled sharply, and rang the bell...nothing.
She waited for almost a minute, wondering if she had the right address. She was about to ring a second time when she heard footsteps.
As the door flung open, a stunning brunette in her late twenties greeted Lauren. Her tight black yoga pants hugged her shapely backside, while her white tank top struggled to contain her full breasts. Despite wearing no makeup, her natural beauty was striking, just like in her videos. Lauren, taken aback, stood in silence.
The woman welcomed her warmly. "So sorry! I'm a mess today. You caught me in the middle of laundry. I thought I had more time. Please come in!"
The entrancing woman continued as they walked down the hall. "Would you like something to drink? I have beer, hard seltzer, water, whiskey, soda, wine...make yourself at home."
Lauren bit her lip as she admired the artwork lining the walls. She didn't know any of the artists by name but thought she recognized one painting, possibly from an article on new artists to watch or from a book she read in school. They could have been reproductions, of course, but she had a nagging suspicion they were all the real deal. "Actually, a seltzer might be nice."
The hall let out into a large, bright living area with two couches, a mahogany coffee table, a flat screen TV against the far wall and an acoustic guitar leaning precariously in the corner. The floor was hardwood, probably oak, but the couches and coffee table sat upon an elegant and expensive looking area rug. The sun, still relatively high in the summer sky, poured into the room through a series of skylights. To the right, a short staircase led to the kitchen, which overlooked the living area. A door to the left led to the rest of the house, presumably the bedrooms and master bath.
"First time?" She asked with a grin before heading up the stairs towards the kitchen. She returned shortly, holding two cans of white claw, and gave one to Lauren. "I mean, is this your first interview?"
"Oh no, trust me, I've done this before." Lauren reassured though her voice faltered. "But this will be my first time writing for money, and I've never interviewed somebody with such an...unconventional job before. I'm not giving you a lot of confidence am I?" She frowned, taking a seat on one of the couches, relishing the softness as she sank into the plush cushions.
"Actually, you remind me of how nervous I was when I started," the woman admitted as she opened her drink with a pop. "Really, I didn't know who or what I was. But once I started enjoying myself...it all fell into place."
"I hope that happens for me soon." Lauren replied nervously, quickly following suit with her can, narrowly avoiding the resulting geyser as it erupted from her drink. "Five years of college and I feel like I'm JUST starting out."
The woman gracefully reassured her, "You'll figure it out. And I'll take it easy. After all, it's my first time too!" She winked.
"Really? Well, I appreciate you for agreeing to do this." Lauren sounded relieved, taking a long drink. "By the way, What would you prefer me to call you?"
"Call me Elisha...Mistress Elisha is my...screen name. Stage name? Actually scratch that, let's just say only my slaves call me Mistress Elisha." She giggled.
Lauren grinned but found herself scanning the room, desperate to find something strange or out of the ordinary. She wasn't sure what she was looking for, but whatever it was she wasn't finding it. Elisha and her house seemed so...normal.
"I suppose you keep them all chained up in the basement then?"
"In the garage actually." Elisha flashed a sarcastic smile as she took her position on the second couch opposite Lauren.
Lauren nearly spit out a mouthful of drink but was able to stop herself.
Elisha started to laugh. "Relax! No, I don't have any slaves."
"Of course you don't. That's illegal right?" Lauren managed an uncomfortable laugh.
"I'm sure." Elisha's eyes fell. "Look, I know you're nervous, but I'm nothing to be afraid of. Just pretend we're having a girl's night. We could switch to wine and talk about boys if that helps!"
Lauren smiled.
Elisha continued. "So what is this article going to be called, 5 things you didn't know about cam girls?"
"Listicles...oh my God!" Lauren's eyes rolled as she spoke. "Actually, I can write whatever I want, in whatever format I want so long as it's compelling." She began to perk up. "People will be fascinated that you actually do this full time and make a living I'm sure. And a good living from the looks of it."
Lauren haphazardly spread her notes out on the coffee table. "Oh right, I almost forgot." She rummaged in her purse and produced a small audio recorder. "Do you mind?"
"Certainly not. I wouldn't want to be misrepresented." Elisha smiled aristocratically. "I'm assuming you'll have to edit out a lot of the fun details though right? She teased. "Is that the new zoom H6?"
Lauren pressed a few buttons and placed the recorder on the coffee table with her notes. "Yes. In school they drilled me on the importance of getting good audio. I know we're not doing a podcast or anything but I'm trying to make it a habit."
"Did you go to school for journalism then or...?
"Film, actually, but I fell in love with writing." Lauren breathed deeply and closed her eyes as she spoke, relishing in more than a few pleasant memories.
"Sounds like there's a story behind that," said Elisha, sensing the emotion in Lauren's voice.
"Okay, like, full disclosure? I took my first creative writing class just to get closer to the TA." A smirk played at the edges of Lauren's mouth. "But, I gotta admit, I could see myself doing this for the rest of my life. I'd still like to work on films though. Or maybe a podcast like I said..." She trailed off.
"Well, don't worry about that. You still have years and years to decide what to do with your life. And you really don't HAVE to pick one. I'm a lot of things. Camgirl, obviously. But I'm also an entrepreneur, a singer, a gamer..." she gestured to the Playstation 5 hooked up to the large TV. "You can totally be all those things! Whatever you want to be."
Lauren beamed.
"Anyway, back to your story. Did you? With your TA friend?"
