2164 Words, another long one, sorry. Update: Written originally with innuendos. Those are left in. Also, there is a humorous scene with a drunk member of the party. I do not in any way mean to imply that over drinking is funny. This is all fictitious.
Chapter Four, The Wedding: Lingerie Party
"Let's move on to teddies."
"Ooh, yes," said Mrs. Lester. "James' favorite."
"My husband's too!" cried Eleanor.
"Ew..."
"TMI."
The older ladies winked at each other.
"OK. I have so many. Let's start with a lace, one-piece teddy. We have two versions, the one I'm holding is lightly lined in the panty and bra. The other version is completely sheer. It comes in black, burgundy, and a deep, rich purple. Anyone care to model?"
Eleanor looked at Mrs. Lester. They smiled to each other. Then Eleanor stood up. "I'd love to."
"Yay! The minister's wife is going to model!" cried Jess, then she covered her mouth.
Abby looked at Emily.
Iris burst out laughing. "Boy are you smashed!" she cried. "Elle doesn't look anything like the minister's wife!
Everyone else burst out laughing, but Jenny's mouth dropped open in recognition. She caught Abby's eye, and nodded, keeping the secret.
"Actually, I get mistaken for her quite a bit," said Eleanor.
Mrs. Lester laughed, standing up too. "Come on, Elle, Let's show these little girls how to strut."
"Mrs. Lester? No!" cried Iris, giggling.
"Yay!" cried Jess.
A few minutes later, the older ladies came out, looking very fit and sexy.
"Wow!" cried Jess. "Strut!"
Abby laughed, and clapped along.
Eleanor walked proudly around the room, taking great pleasure in doing something so unbecoming a politician's wife.
Mrs. Lester was just as brave, parading around, wagging her hips, and showing off the burgundy teddy.
'I'm wearing the lined one, I didn't want to scar any young lives."
The younger women laughed.
"You look really good, Mrs. Lester. The boss is lucky."
"Thank you, Iris dear. I'll be sure to drop a few lovely complements in your direction."
Iris giggled.
Debra laughed, and said, "Elle is wearing a velvet orange teddy, with black ruffles above the bra, and along the legs. It fastens easily up the back."
"Yes, it does. I will let you know if my husband can unfasten it just as easily."
Jess hid her face in her hands. She didn't want to think about the minister's love life.
Jenny raised her glass to the Eleanor. "Bravo," she said. "You do look smashing."
"Thank you," replied Eleanor.
The ladies bowed, got a standing ovation from the younger ones, and they left to get dressed.
"You are a fun crowd," said Debra.
Abby laughed. "Should have had Becker warn you," she said.
Debra smiled. "I can take it. How about a baby doll? This one is super sexy. It's off the shoulder and tightly crocheted."
"It looks warm," said Ce Ce.
"And tight," said Kim.
"No, not at all, it has spandex," said Debra. "It's also super light and made with a soft, but breathable fabric. It comes with fully lined panty. How about trying it on for them, Ce Ce?"
Ce Ce smiled. "Oh, all right."
"Yay! Strip!"
"Jess, seriously. Are you going to be alright?" asked Abby.
Jess giggled uncontrollably.
"While Ce Ce is changing, let me show one of my favorites. This is a mesh, see-through gown, actually attached to the bra. It reminds me of a beach cover up, but its lingerie."
"How do you put it on?" asked Abby.
"The bra has a front closure. You slip it on, like a robe."
"Very, sexy, and alluring," said Eleanor, walking back in with Mrs. Lester.
"It comes in a brilliant white, black, light wine, and nude."
"Nude?" asked Beverly. "I'd like to see that."
"Of course. Would you like to model?
"Sexy nurse!" cried Jess.
Beverly blushed. "You're going to end up in a hospital bed, Jess."
"She stopped drinking a while ago," said Kim.
Jess giggled.
"That gown is provocative," said Emily. "I wish to be more bold. I believe I would like to try it on as well."
Debra smiled. "Of course. What color?"
Emily thought. "I will try the wine."
As Beverly and Emily left, Ce Ce came back out, wearing a red baby doll, ending just below the hip. Her knickers showed when she walked.
"This is cute, and Debra's right. It isn't hot or tight. I like it," she said. Ce Ce sauntered around, dipping like a stripper by Jess, who giggled. "I especially like the frilly ruffle trim on the bottom."
"It's cute," said Abby. "I think it's too cute for me."
"Oh, it's perfect for a routine," said Ce Ce, teasing down a strap, and inching the baby doll up her hips, stopping at the belly button.
Debra laughed and led them all in applause.
"We need a couple of these for the studio, Debra," said Ce Ce, "I'm getting a bunch."
"Yay! More free stuff for us!" cried Jess.
At that moment, Emily and Beverly came out.
"Nice," said Abby.
"It is just a bit naughty," said Emily. She bit her lip. "I will do it. I will be brazen and purchase this."
Abby cheered. "You're not as brazen as Bev, though. She looks nude."
Beverly blushed. "It's unlike anything I have. It's daring."
Debra nodded. "We mostly save nude for panties and bras. This almost qualifies."
Beverly nodded. "Looks like Jess gets more free stuff."
Jess clapped, nearly falling off her chair.
"Now, we're nearly done, but I do want to show you some more casual looks. Let's start with boy shorts."
"Booty shorts? Yeah!" cried Meira.
"I have one I was saving for Jess to try. I'm not sure she's up to it," said Debra, looking at the wobbly Jess.
"Sure I am!"
"I will help her," said Emily. She put her arm around Jess and led her off.
"I think I should make some coffee," said Kim. "OK, Abby?"
"I think it's an excellent idea, thanks."
In a few minutes, Jess and Emily came out giggling. "You're naughty, Debra, " said Jess. "Look! I'm Soldier Girl!"
Everyone giggled.
Jess wore a tiny boy short, square style, but barely covering her bum. The tank was teeny too, also barely covering. It matched the short in a camouflage print of pink and sage green.
"Hee hee hee," laughed Jess. "I want it. Soldier Girl. Hee hee."
Debra smiled. "I have several colors. There is a blue/silver, orange/red, and yellow/purple, all in the camo print."
"Yes."
"Which one?" asked an amused Debra.
"Right," said Jess, making the room laugh.
Jess collapsed on the sofa, giggling.
"Come on, time to have some coffee," said Kim, helping her into the kitchen.
"Lots, Kim!" cried Abby. "Debra, order her one of each."
"I liked it too," said Nicole. "Usually I see enough fatigues, but that was cute. I'll take the yellow/purple."
"I also have a baby doll in the same prints and color combinations."
"Ooh," said Nicole, holding them up to her in the mirror. "I'll take the blue and purple combinations in the short set and the pink and red ones in the baby doll."
"Jess would like them as well," said Emily.
"Which colors?"
Emily and Abby said in unison, "All of them."
Debra went down her checklist. "Abby, do you have undergarments for your wedding gown?"
Abby looked blank. "Uh...no."
Debra smiled. "Also a gift from the company, you may pick a set, on us."
"Wow!"
"Is your dress sleeveless?"
"Yes."
"OK, then you could go with a strapless bra, corset, or bustier and panty."
"That corset earlier was comfy."
"And Connor can help you out of it, after the ceremony."
"Jenny!"
"We have some lovely brilliant white, satin corsets. This one has ruffles."
"I'm not really frilly."
"This one is lace, with stiff boning for support."
"Sorry, Debra," said Ce Ce. "Abby, I find that one a bit hard to wear."
Debra laughed. "It's OK. It is very rigid."
"Pass," said Abby.
"This corset has contrast black stitching."
"Ooh. That's more me," said Abby. "I'll try this one."
Jess walked out of the kitchen under her own power. She sat on the sofa, yawned, and put her head on the armrest. "Where's Abby?"
"Trying on the last item," said Debra.
"Oh. Can I take a wittle nap?"
The room giggled.
"Yes. I will wake you when we require your presence," said Emily.
Jess nodded, and fell asleep, still wearing the camo outfit.
Debra laughed. "I like her," she whispered to Ce Ce. She nodded.
Abby called for Emily. A few minutes later, Abby came out, not in the corset, but in her wedding gown.
"Oh! Abby!"
"You look beautiful!"
"You really do!"
"This is a surprise," said Debra.
"Well, the black detail in the corset worried me a bit. I wanted to try it out."
"Good idea," said Debra. "I think it works."
"It does," agreed Abby. "I'll take it."
Debra nodded.
"Come on Emily, before Connor crashes the party and brings us bad luck."
Emily laughed, and followed her into her room to take off the gown.
"Thank you ladies. This was fun," said Debra.
They all clapped.
"I will be in the kitchen, you may come and order one at a time, in complete privacy. Thanks, again."
Jess napped, and Emily and Abby chatted with the ladies until one by one, they went into the kitchen and made their purchases.
As they left the flat, Abby noticed them giving her strange smiles, nods, and winks.
"Something's going on," she said to Emily.
Eleanor waited for Mrs. Lester to order, then they prepared to leave.
"Goodbye, dears," said Eleanor. "Have a wonderful married life, Abby." She kissed her on the cheek. "Thank you all so much for allowing me to share this time with you. I haven't had so much fun in ages."
"You're welcome. Thank you for coming. It was lovely to meet you, honestly," said Abby.
"Goodbye, Emily, Abby. Please tell Jess thank you for her hospitality. I will be speaking highly of you all to James, and quite often."
"Thank you, Mrs. Lester," said Emily.
"Congratulations, Abby dear. Be very happy," she said. They hugged.
"Next time we see you, you'll be getting married," said Eleanor.
Abby nodded and blushed.
Again, as they left, they gave her a slight smirk.
"Definitely, something's going on."
Emily laughed.
"Well, I'm back to my sergeant's life," said Nicole. "Thanks for inviting me. I need frilly, sexy things to remind me I'm a girl."
Emily and Abby chuckled. "See you, Nicole."
"At the wedding, baring anything...yellow and shining." She left, winking.
Debra came out of the kitchen. "That's everyone but you three," she said.
Emily woke Jess up.
"How do you feel?" she asked.
"Fine. I think," Jess answered.
"Why was I getting weird looks as the guests left?" asked Abby.
Debra laughed. "It's customary to ask the guests if they'd like to buy something for the bride or see her wish list," said Debra. "They also have the option of buying a gift certificate."
"Oh," said Abby, blushing. "I hope they didn't feel obligated.
Debra laughed. "You have wonderful friends. I told them it was optional, of course. They wouldn't hear of it. They were incredibly generous. Abby, you have nearly 200 pounds in gift certificates, alone."
"Oh my Gosh!"
Jess giggled. "They're so sweet."
"They also bought you gifts: the white version of Emily's halter gown set, a black chemise and robe set, a red lace nightie, and a traditional long black gown. Then, there were several animal print items: bras, panties, a baby dolls, and a teddy."
"The menagerie girls picked them," said Abby.
"I have a full record of who bought what, and some complimentary thank you notes if you wish to send them. Jess, Emily: you've done very well. You made well over a thousand pounds."
"Excuse me? How much?" asked Emily.
"Whoa! That woke me up," said Jess. "Are they insane?"
"Well, only a portion of it was in gifts."
"So they're generous and horny."
"Abby!" cried Jess, as the bride-to-be laughed.
"Look over the brochures, take your time. You don't have to give me the orders today, of course."
"I will," said Abby. "I'm running out of time."
Debra nodded. "Yes, you should order tonight." She looked at her watch. "It's relatively early. Did you still want to do a private show with the men?"
"Should we?" Abby asked them.
Emily blushed. "I do not see any harm. We may stop the party if anyone is embarrassed."
"I agree," said Jess.
"OK, Debra. Let's do the other party too."
Debra nodded. "I'll set out some samples, and set them up in a separate room, and if you like, you can go in privately as couples."
"That's brilliant," said Jess.
"You can then just mark the items you want on the order forms. I will be happy to discuss any of them with you, of course, but it isn't necessary."
"Great, Debra, thanks," said Abby.
Debra nodded. "You can even dress for the occasion," she said with a smirk, indicating the lingerie samples.
The girls looked at each other, and nodded.
"Now the fun really starts," said Abby.
