"HELLO BITCHES. I'M BAAAAACK." Maria yelled out as she went strolling into the room. Nancy and Maura were a little surprised at Maria's tone and language. In fact, Nancy and Maura were still out in the hallway, rooted to the spot they had been in when Maria first opened the door. The next thing they heard were two voices shouting "MIA!"
At that, Maura walked in and looked at the three women now sharing a group hug in the room. When they broke apart a little and Maura got her first good look at the other two, she said "Holy shit."
Although Maura had said it in surprise, Nancy, who was already hypervigilant for a problem, thought it might be a statement of alarm. Fearing another Wallingham incident [Love at First Sight Ch. 2], Nancy now entered the room ready to defend Maura from anyone who might harm her.
Instead, Nancy was looking at Mia and Jessi, the two porn stars whose movies her and Maura had tried to emulate when they first started their own sexual relationship. It was watching those movies that they had first seen a new porn star named "Alexis Vegas." Nancy turned to Maura and said, "You were right babe, Holy Shit!"
Mia came bounding over to them, a bundle of energy talking ninety miles a minute. "Hi! I'm Krissi Ross. But you know me as Mia, I guess. It's funny because we call Maria 'Mia' all the time when we're not on set. And I certainly know you two." She stepped up to Nancy. "You're Nancy Wade. You're me or I'm you, I guess. Let me see you smile."
This seemed like an odd request to Nancy. She certainly was not feeling happy at the moment, but she was no longer worried or concerned. The best that could be said was she felt relieved and the presence of Krissi and Dawn in the hotel room was obviously the main reason for Maria's secrecy. She also figured that Maura had guessed correctly about the production company paying for the weekend. So, she forced a smile to placate the bubbly blonde staring at her.
"Ooooo. You were right Mia those dimples are adorable when she smiles. I wish I had them when I smiled." This made Nancy blush as she was being complimented on her looks by this super-hot porn star she had watched and tried to emulate.
"It is so great to get a chance to meet you." Krissi threw her arms around Nancy and pulled her in for a big hug. Then she released her and stepped over to Maura.
"And you must be MOH. Mmmmm. Ask Dawn, I have a thing for redheads." And with that she threw her arms around Maura just as she had with Nancy.
Then Krissy stepped aside and Dawn Hansen stepped up to them. She held her hand out to Nancy and said, "In case you missed it, that was Krissy Ross and she was damn glad to me you."
Maria chimed in, "Being a little bit formal aren't you Dawn?"
"Look, these poor women are shell shocked. You obviously kept it a secret that we were going to be here and then Tropical Storm Krissi washes over them. I think they need a little time to recover."
Dawn then stepped over to Maura and again extended her hand saying, "Dawn Hansen, pleasure to meet you. I hope you think I did you justice?"
"Pardon?" asked Maura who was not really understanding what she meant.
"In the series. I know you know it was supposed to be loosely based on your life. And Nancy's." she quickly added and looked over at Nancy for a moment before turning back to Maura. "I hope that you feel like I played your part well."
"Oh, hell yeah. You did great. And I've never looked so hot."
"Come on now. You are very attractive."
Receiving her own compliment on her looks from another incredibly hot porn was quite the ego boost for Maura. She was also a little bit embarrassed by it and began to turn a shade of red darker then her hair. Maura's response was emblematic of her feelings when all she could manage was, "Uh, oh, a geez. Thank you."
Maria could not believe what she was seeing. "MOH, you're blushing!"
Maura seemed to get an additional shade of red at this, but she did find her voice as she directed it at Maria. "Well, what do you expect. She's as hot as you in a different way and she said I was attractive. Of course that got to me a little."
"I've told you that you were attractive without you getting all red."
"Yeah...well, that's different."
"Why?"
"It just is." Maura was starting to feel a little picked on and was getting annoyed at Maria. Dawn leaned in and pulled Maura into a big hug. With her mouth right by Maura's ear, Dawn whispered, "
Thank you. It means a lot to me to hear you say all those wonderful things about me. And just so you know, I already knew how attractive you are because Maria has told me about a hundred times.
" Dawn leaned back and they smiled at each other and Dawn gave Maura a wink. That calmed Maura down a lot and she stopped being annoyed at Maria.
Maria now came over and stood in between Maura and Dawn, putting one arm around each of them. "My four favorite people in the world all together." Maria's face was beaming, but she suddenly got a very serious look on her face and turned to Nancy.
"Nance, you were right though, there was a little more to this than I was saying. I do need a little favor from you and Maura."
Nancy did begin to frown as the voice in the back of her mind said, "Uh oh. Watch out."
Maria continued, "Nancy, Maura, the studio wants you to spend a little time talking with Krissi and Dawn. The studio is really pushing to make this series more than just a porn show, but a real high-quality show."
Krissi cut in, "And by studio, she means herself. But to be honest, we're with her one thousand percent. We might be porn actresses, but we are actresses. We care about the quality and the content of our movies as much as any other Hollywood actor would. Sure, we want it to be hot, but we want it to be as relatable as it can be as well. I mean, it's porn. It's larger than life. But we still want the audience to care about the characters we portray and we want them to feel like it could be real."
Nancy spoke first, "Well we think you've done great so far. I mean, we probably lost some of the nuances as we started to realize it was kind of our story and we focused on that. But you had some scenes where there was no sex at all and you've been building the story each episode."
Dawn smiled and said, "Thanks Nancy. Krissi's right. It may seem a little incongruous to some people, but we really do care about our work. Of course, a lot of those same people wouldn't believe a porn star would use a word like 'incongruous.'" This caused everyone to laugh. Then Dawn continued, "Maria has really been pushing hard to make this a really great production. Not just the sex parts, but every part. And while we came out here to see Mia because we miss her so much..." Dawn turned to Maria and blew her a kiss. "...when we told her we wanted to come out and see her, she had suggested that we should meet with you. Do a little research for our roles. You know, we still have three more episodes to shoot. And while we already have scripts, they could change a little. And how we play those scenes could be different even if we're using the same words. So, we thought that was a really good idea."
Krissi added, "Plus with everything Maria has told us about you, we really wanted to meet you in person."
Maria looked at Nancy and Maura and said, "So, you can say 'No,' if you want and we can still go out to dinner and dancing and whatever ends up after that. And if you want to go back to the dorm now or after dinner, I understand. No pressure. But would you be willing to spend an hour or so talking with us about the show?"
"Us?" asked Nancy.
"Well, yeah." responded Maria. "I mean, I am the Assistant Producer too."
Maura smiled and said, "You had me at 'do a little research.' I'm in."
Maria now looked at Nancy, who face was as inscrutable as the Sphinx at this moment. "Well, Nance, what do you say."
"Can I come up with a porn name as a consultant?" She said it with a smile and everyone was pretty sure she was not being serious.
But just in case, Maria offered, "If you want to you can?"
"Nah. I can go uncredited. But I love the irony that I am going to be helping them out when we learned so much from them."
With smiles all around, the five of them spent the next hour and a half talking about anything and everything from mannerisms to what they said when Nancy and Maura orgasmed.
Nancy and Maura also got a crash course in porn movie filming and why some things had to be done certain ways for a shot and how much work was really involved in filming a storyline like this. They might shoot scenes for three different episodes in one day because they only had the location that day. There was a lot more editing then they supposed and it wasn't just some guy watching them have sex with a camera.
Of course, once the cameras stopped rolling, there was time to play. Krissi and Dawn definitely had some stories about Maria that she would have been happy had they remained untold. This helped them get to know each other better and by the time they had to get ready for dinner, they were talking like five long-time friends. Maria couldn't have been happier.
The room was actually part of a suite and so there were two bathrooms. Krissi, Dawn and Maria went into one and Nancy and Maura went into the other. All the talk about sex with three hot porn stars had Nancy and Maura very worked up. They ended up playing with each other more than washing in the shower. After giving each other the orgasmic release they both needed, they finished getting showered.
