It was just another Sunday evening in the teachers quarters where Meera and Ananya, who both were in their early twenties and recently recruited to the job, spent their time lazily. It was hot and humid outside as Meera sat cross-legged on the cool tiled floor reading a book.
Meera was wearing a thin peach colored sleeveless nightie with a high slit revealing one of her smooth and toned thighs.
Ananya lay on the bed wearing a lavender coloured sleeveless nighty which ended just above her knees.
The power had gone out an hour ago and it was about to get dark as they had already prepared and lit a small candle on the bedside table.
"This heat is unbearable," Ananya said as she rolled on to her back.
"You could take it off." Meera said with a laugh pointing at Ananya's nightie.
Ananya threw a pillow at her.
"Shameless girl."
Meera laughed again and reached for the candle.
"Want to play a game?" She asked.
"What kind of game?"
Meera tilted the candle and let a small drop of melted wax fall onto the wooden table.
"It's simple where we both take turns and one of us pours, the other has to stay still."
Ananya hesitated but sat up.
Meera held the candle above Ananya's bare shoulder and tilted it slowly and a single drop of warm wax landed just below the curve of her collarbone making Ananya gasp though she didn't move.
"My turn," Ananya said as she took the candle. Meera let her nighty slip a bit off one shoulder and wax dripped onto her skin making her shiver a bit.
"You like it?" Ananya asked.
Meera smiled but didn't answer.
She took the candle back.
"This time I'll try somewhere else."
She brought the candle lower and tilted the candle again. The wax landed just above Ananya's knee as she flinched but didn't move away.
"It's warmer than I thought," Ananya said.
"You'll get used to it," Meera said.
She reached out as her fingers caressed over the dried wax and rubbed.it away.
"My turn," Ananya said.
"Here," Meera said as she guided Ananya's hand lower and closer to the swell of her chest.
Ananya tilted the candle and the wax dripped onto Meera's upper arm first and then lower, just above the curve of her breast making Meera gasp.
"That was different," Meera said with a smile.
Meera set the candle aside and reached for Ananya's nightie.
"Are you still feeling hot?" Meera asked teasingly as she tugged lightly at Ananya's nightie.
Ananya caught her hand for a while before letting go. Meera pulled the nightie over Ananya's head, revealing her pastel blue bra underneath.
"You're beautiful," Meera sajd.
Ananya didn't reply as she reached for Meera's nightie as her fingers hooked under the strap and pushed it down, revealing more skin.
"Where next?" Ananya asked.
Meera smiled.
"Surprise me."
Ananya hesitated but slowly moved the candle lower and tilted the candle as she let a few drops of wax land on Meera's bare thigh.
Meera took a deep breath.
"That feels strange," Meera said as she ran her fingers over the cooling wax.
"My turn," Meera said and took the candle.
A single drop landed just above the curve of her bra making Ananya flinch slightly.
Meera leaned closer and blew on the wax to cool it faster, making Ananya shiver.
"I think it's only fair if you take off one more thing." Meera said.
Ananya's fingers trembled slightly as she reached behind her back and unhooked her bra and let it slide off her shoulders.
"You're beautiful," Meera said again as she reached out to caress Ananya's arm.
Meera got hold of the candle and tilted it as she let a thin stream of wax fall between Ananya's breasts making Ananya gasp.
