It was 'First Tuesday', the night each month that all the art galleries were open for their new exhibits. I dressed up a little nicer than my normal daily fare. Sure, I clean up well. There was just a hint of cleavage, maybe more than a hint, maybe a lot more. I liked to think my breasts were one of my better parts. I enjoyed them even though there wasn't anyone currently in my life to share them with. Judy had enjoyed them for sure, oh how I loved her lips around my nipples, or my clit, oh yes my clit. She could make me roar for sure. I left my long legs bare, tanned like all of my body, and my skirt short just to add a little drama to my appearance. The high-heals shaped my calves nicely. Maybe someone in their late forties doesn't usually dress as wildly, but I liked to show myself off, I liked other women to look.
One of my favorite galleries was the 'Images', a high art gallery that specialized in expensive photographs. Tonight a show by Kate Johnson was opening. I had seen a few pieces of her work displayed there and really enjoyed them. All were sensitive black and white images of female nudes, mostly just parts of the body, a breast, a thigh, a foot, a throat, or a mouth. Sometimes the whole body was shown. I also owned a book of her work; all the page edges were now well worn. She would be there and I was looking forward to telling how much I liked her work. I had seen a few pictures of her and I was in love with the way she looked.
I pulled up to the valet in my black Mazda Miata with tan interior, a handsome younger man dressed in a tux appeared, maybe in his late 20's, and opened the door for me. There was no way I could get out without giving him a real show so I decided not to do it halfway. With one long leg out and no panties covering me, I just paused for a moment as he looked with his mouth agape. The second leg followed not so quickly, but before the poor man embarrassed himself with a huge woody in front of everyone.
As I took the claim check between my long slender fingers, I cooed, "Have a nice evening."
He looked straight in my eyes as he said, "I did."
The gallery was crowded with people, mostly women, mostly great looking women, in their finest clothes, all looking like they could drop more than a few grand for a photograph like they had only bought a stick of gum. I picked up a glass of champagne and began to walk around the edge of the room looking at the various images. The third one captured my attention and I stood looking intently at it as I rolled a small amount of the golden bubbly around over my tongue.
"That is one of my favorites too."
I swallowed as I turned around and found myself a few inches from Kate's face. The pictures of her would almost make me orgasm, but seeing her in person was a thousand times more exciting for me. I could feel the moisture starting to touch the top of my thigh and I knew the hem of my skirt wasn't very far below the forming drip.
"I love all of your work. It's a little embarrassed to say that I've taken one of your books to bed more than a few times. I'm Abby." I reached out my hand. I was so entranced by being in front of her that I completely underestimated the distance between us and pressed my hand against the lower half of her breasts. I didn't even think to pull my hand back; instead I left it resting against her.
"Such a nice greeting; most people just shake my hand." She smiled in a very real way, not just a fake smile that she might give to most strangers. I melted in her smile. Her hand covered mine and pressed it a little higher, a little harder against her, as she looked down the opening of my blouse at the tan skin of my breasts. "You are quite lovely Abby."
"Sorry. I was just taken with your beauty and got..."
"Don't apologize. Walk with me."
Our arms dangled alongside our bodies as Kate held my fingers with hers. She led me past each of her photographs explaining the details and background of each one. A few were quite erotic and she would squeeze my fingers a little tighter as we stood in front of those. One in particular showed the uncovered space between a woman's legs, a finger pressed against it, almost inside, and a few inches of thigh.
"That was so exciting to take, printing it was even more so. I bet you'd look much better."
"Might be fun if you'd like me to model for you. I've never done that." I felt so bold. I didn't know where that had come from, but I was glad I'd said it.
"Are you doing anything tomorrow?"
"Actually, no. I'm free. I was lucky and had a few good investments over the years, so now I'm 'retired'." I shrugged my shoulders and lifted my arms a little, almost apologizing for not working. "Guess I don't need to bring clothes?" I laughed.
"We're about the same size, I have a few things that will fit you if we need anything special."
The drive to the coast is always lovely and the weather today was perfect, low 70's with a clear sky. As I left the edge of the urban area and entered a forested stretch of the two-lane road, I unbuttoned my blouse, nothing under it except me. With the car top already down, the breeze through the car gently flipped my blouse open and closed. On the passing lanes up the hills, drivers in the bigger SUV's and pickup trucks were getting a good view if they happened to be looking my way. A few guys tooted their horns; even a woman or two smiled and waved or blew me a kiss.
Kate's studio was right on the beach, tucked alone in a small cove, close to a small town I always enjoyed going to. This was a remarkable part of the coastline with a long light brown sandy beach and high rocky cliffs. A few huge rocks stood near the edge of the water towering 50 feet or more above the beach. During low tide, pools of shallow water left from the high tide sometimes surrounded the rocks.
I got out with my blouse still unbuttoned. Without the wind the fabric was covering my breasts well enough people wouldn't stumble or trip while walking if they happened to see me. There weren't any though. My short cutoff jeans highlighted my shapely butt and my long legs. My long straw blonde hair was pulled through the back of my baseball cap. I reached over, grabbed a bag, and was still bent over as Kate stopped about five feet behind me.
"Nice ass Abby."
As I spun around, my blouse flew open on one side revealing a whole breast for long enough that she got a good view. "Hey Kate!"
"Damn! You have far too much on baby."
I knew from all of her photographs that Kate had seen many naked women far nicer looking that I am, and a lot younger too. I was flattered that she was talking like that. I also knew she was about five years older than I was, a perfect age I thought. I was trying to not let myself build this into something more than it might be or might become.
"I'm yours you know."
"Tease me. You're so delicious looking. What'd you bring?"
"Nothing much, just a bikini and a little robe I thought might be sexy. Oh, and a bottle of wine."
"Welcome to my little studio. Not much, but it's all I really need."
The studio was mostly one very large room with a bed by a window, a kitchen in one corner, and the rest was covered rolls of backdrop paper, lights, and camera equipment. There was furniture here and there that I recognized from her photographs.
"I've seen that couch in a number of your pictures."
"And soon, you'll have your naked body on it. Ready for this?"
"Actually, I was so excited that I couldn't sleep well last night."
"Good, that makes two of us. It has been a long time since I've wanted to have someone model for me as much as you."
"Why?"
"Maybe it was just that magical touch you gave me at the gallery last night."
She quickly and lightly touched my bare left nipple with a fingertip, and then touched it again, this time for a few seconds.
"I like the way it responds."
"I think it likes you."
