Nicole emerged from the dressing room first with a huge grin on her face
"You are going to love this" she smiled at Brady. "love wha.." he broke
off as Chloe emerged from the door Nicole had come from. Her long brown
hair was curled into ringlets, and she wore a red satin dress that hugged
her chest and waist, then flared out. Brady couldn't keep his eyes off her
"Oh so touchable" he muttered under his breath.
"What?" Nicole turned her head, "Ah nothing, really" he denied "just thinking out loud. "Uh-huh" she snorted, not convinced, she saw the look in his eyes, and they didn't say 'nothing really' ".
"Well, what do you think?" Chloe stopped in front of him "I..ah..you, look.." he trailed off. Chloe grinned "That good, huh?" she smiled. "not even close" Brady shot her a look filled with desire and admiration. Nicole watched the exchange between the two of them, on her that dress looked great and she knew that Brady knew it too. Once Chloe realized it, the sparks would fly, which meant they better get this show on the road.
Nicole motioned for the photographer to get ready. "Okay, Chloe," she began "I know this is new and strange. Being surrounded by fans and music and hoards of people, so" she looked around the room at the make-up crew and photographer "find a focal point, a person, a wall, something, anything and keep your attention on it" she instructed.
Chloe swallowed a lump in her throat "Okay" she spoke softly. Someone fixed her make-up, then the photographer talked to her for a few minutes, reassuring her and giving her instructions "Ready?" he asked.
Chloe Nodded "I think so" she breathed deeply. The photographer just smiled at her "You'll be fine, just relax and have fun." And so the shoot began.
Brady and Nicole watched from the back of the room. "She's doing okay" Nicole began. "But?" Brady glanced at her. "She's tight, she needs to relax or the camera will catch that." Brady didn't know how Nicole knew these things, but she had a knack for knowing those type of things.
Nicole watched Chloe, she recognized the nervousness on her face. She hoped Brady would do something to make more at ease. Unwilled, she remembered what her father had used to get her to relax "the pig" she muttered under her breath. She swore nobody would ever know what her father had turned her into, but her experience gave her a unique view on photogeaphy and models.
Lost in thought, she didn't notice Brady slipping away from her side. "Snap out of it Nicole" she said fiercely, "He cant hurt you anymore." She spotted Brady talking to the audio operator, then what happened next completely shocked her.
"You wait, little girl, on an empty stage" she heard someone sing. She didn't know for sure who it was, but it was obvious from the silly grin on Chloe's face, that she did.
"For fate to turn the light on
Your life, little girl, is an empty page
That men will want to write on"
Nicole's mouth dropped open as she realized it was Brady who was singing, and Chloe responded by smiling broadly. Brady walked over to her pulling her close as he sang.
"To write on" Chloe chimed in.
Brady began to sing again. As he did the photographer furiously snapped the camera, turning once to give Nicole a thumbs up. Nicole grinned at them, Chloe came to life under Brady's care, they truly were soul mates. Like the rest of the crew, Nicole sat down and watched as Brady and Chloe entertained them. She realized that the two of them didn't even realize it, as if they were the only two people in the room.
"You are sixteen going on seventeen
Baby, it's time to think
Better beware, be canny and careful
Baby, you're on the brink
You are sixteen going on seventeen
Fellows will fall in line
Eager young lads and rogues and cads
Will offer you food and wine
Totally unprepared are you
To face a world of men
Timid and shy and scared are you
Of things beyond your ken
You need someone older an wiser
Telling you what to do
I am seventeen going on eighteen
I'll take care of you"
Completely in character Chloe began to sing
"I am sixteen going on seventeen
I know that I'm naive
Fellows I meet may tell me I'm sweet
And willingly I believe
I am sixteen going on seventeen
Innocent as a rose
Bachelor dandies, drinkers of brandies
What do I know of those
Totally unprepared am I
To face a world of men
Timid and shy and scared am I
Of things beyond my ken
I need someone older and wiser
Telling me what to do
You are seventeen going on eighteen
I'll depend on you"
"Cut and Print" the photographer called loudly as the crew broke into a round of applause. Chloe hid her face in Brady's chest, blushing furiously. He merely chuckled and held her close " Ya did good Lane" he kissed the top of her head.
Nicole Came over "No fair keeping secrets, you two" she shamed them "I had no idea you could sing" she shook her finger at Brady. "And you?" she turned to Chloe "where did you learn to sing like that?"
hloe grinned, "I don't know" she shrugged. Nicole looked at her watch "Oh darn, I have to go. I am meeting Mark at Tuscany, but you" she pointed at them "aren't off the hook."
"Okay, everybody, its been a long day, lets go home" she shuffled the crew out "Brady can clean up here." With that, she and the crew left the studio leaving Chloe and Brady alone.
Brady held Chloe, tracing a pattern on her jaw with his thumb, before moving his hand to her lips. His eyes met hers Sapphire and ice blue filled with passion and desire "Chloe" he whispered pulling her closer. Wrapping her arms around his neck, she leaned into him. With a moan, Brady brushed her lips with hers.
Brady deepened the kiss, as the fire of passion ignited between them. Scooping her into his arms he, carried her over to the bed cover in blue satin sheets. He carefully placed her on the bed, kissing her, his hands running down her body "Brady" she moaned passionately as his hands found the zipper on her dress "make love to me" she arched against him.
"I thought you'd never ask" he responded pulling her to him.
A/N: I am not going to deny you the pleasure of a love scene, but it has to wait until I get back from school today. My semester break is over pout
