Cathy was snapping photos as she called out what she wanted.
Mr. Cute Butt was shirtless with a little black and white kitten in his hand and an orange tabby comfortably sitting on his shoulder as his white paw played with his short silver hair.
"What the heck?" Sora mouthed to herself. How was this modeling clothing?
"We're working on a Valentine's Day calendar," Layla explained, "80% of the profits go to animal shelters in Cape Mary."
Sora's eyes stayed on the tabby. She felt Leon's hair last night. It was softer than she had thought it would be…
"So," she cleared her throat, "why am I here then?"
"Sora!" Cathy merrily exclaimed, "So glad you could come!" She put her camera down. "Everyone, take five. Leon, come here."
Leon walked over, kittens and all.
Sora was embarrassed to feel her insides melt a little. But she pointedly didn't look at him when he was near her. She didn't know what he thought of her now, especially after what happened yesterday.
"I'm working on another campaign," Cathy said. Sora gratefully looked over at her. "But I can't seem to get exactly what I want with these two," Cathy stuck out two fingers at Layla and Leon, "So when I heard you were here in New York, I thought, 'What the hell. Let's try it out.'"
"Try what out?"
Cathy looked at Layla and then back at Sora. "Why modeling, of course."
Sora blinked very rapidly. "Modeling? Oh no. No no. You've got the wrong girl."
Cathy hmmed as she circled around Sora. "Why not? You've got a nice figure. Is it because you're short?" Sora made a little squeaking sound, but Cathy waved it off. "That's what heels are for!"
Cathy clapped her hands. Some people from wardrobe came over.
"No, wait," Sora started and then eeped when a guy started measuring her bust. "Hey, watch those hands!"
"Relax," Cathy casually stated. "Damien's gay."
Sora squeaked again when a young woman measured her inseam.
"And so is Trish."
Unsurprisingly, Cathy's words weren't helping Sora. "I can't model. I have no experience in front of the camera!"
"Nonsense!" Cathy laughed. "I heard you used to do aerial silks; surely there were photographers for those events!"
Sora sharply lifted her head up to Leon. He looked back, calming stroking the spine of the black and white kitten. She could hear it purring and it arched its back against Leon's hands.
She had felt those hands on her hips, even holding her own hand…
"Put her in Dress Beta."
Sora looked back at Cathy. "What's Dress Beta?"
"It's the dress before Alpha," Damien said as he grabbed Sora's right arm.
Trish smiled as she grabbed Sora's left arm. "All models try on Dress Beta before Cathy allows them to be in Alpha."
"That doesn't tell me what it is!"
