A return to my normal non-pornographic ficlets! I thought people might get a kick out of this—this was the drabble that spawned the fic 'Picture It', and ultimately the character of JD. (In this story Alice says he doesn't go for girls but that has since changed.) It was another part of the LJ drabble meme and was written to the song 'Centerfold' by the J. Geils Band. (It's also a rather more autobiographical story… yeah. My life is a sitcom.)

Absently in conversation—when it was relevant to the topic at hand—she'd mentioned that she'd never taken her clothes off on camera before but she'd appeared in front of one without any on, and right away she knew that mentioning it was a mistake because Hatter immediately wanted to know what that was all about.
She shrugged. "A friend of mine is a photographer and I model for him every so often."
"Naked."
"Once or twice."
He waited for her to go on.
She sighed. "Don't be jealous, he doesn't go for girls and I've known him too long for that anyway."
"So what was this naked all about?" He seemed far more interested in the whole 'naked' aspect than the fact that she'd been naked with another man in the woods.
So she showed him the pictures because she kept them in a box under her bed where her mother wouldn't find them, because Carol would throw a fit if she found out her daughter had been naked on camera.
The pictures were all woodsy—Alice on trees and rocks and hip-deep in a creek with her hair dripping all over her body. None of the pictures are terribly revealing—there's a lot of strategic angling and placement of hair and arms and crossed legs, and she's shown more bare skin than that in her bathing suit, for goodness sake—but Hatter was completely transfixed, staring open-mouthed as he leafed through them. She could swear she saw him drool.
"When was this?"
"Maybe a year ago. We would've gotten more pictures but the park police found us and we had to run away. It's not technically legal to be naked in a public park."
He wasn't listening. He was too busy with the pictures.
