Blue Moon

22-Men

You know how sometimes you are just so shocked your brain freezes?

Well this is one of those times.

Ashlynn and I stand there frozen taking in the scene in front of us. Now I understand why Ana didnt tell us everything. 

She knew Ash and I might choose to pass on it. I don't think I would've, I just would've liked to be informed. 

On the amount of men in speedos I would be working with. 

There are four female models and at least twelve male models. 

That's a lot of man.

Ash turns to look at me, wide eyed. 

"Are you seeing this?" She asks and I nod. 

One of the photographers calls for us again and we head closer. 

"Why are there so many of them?" I ask and Ash looks at all of them. 

"This feels like a start to a bad porno." She says, her voice full of humor. 

We each do separate shots before shots with a few of us and then shots with every one. 

"Ava darling lay out a few feet from the water." Moira one of the photographers says. 

I sit down, propped up on my elbows with one leg propped. 

"Zane I want you in this one too." A tall muscular blond guy comes over to me. 

Moira and a few other people get us set for the shots. She has Zane stick a step of a cherry in his mouth, then she has him lean over me, his arms caging me in. 

"Now Ava I want you to look up at him and lightly bite the cherry between your teeth." She says and I follow her directions. 

Moira gets a bunch of shots before she lets us move. 

"Great job you two." She says as she looks through the pictures. "We'll call you guys when we need you again." She says before walking over to another group.

Zane reaches out a hand to help me up. 

I take his hand and stand up. Zane is a whole lot taller than me. Probably six seven at least.

"Have we worked together before?" he asks, he has an Australian accent. Wow. 

I shake my head and he gives me a lopsided smile. 

"This might sound unprofessional, no it definitely is but you are absolutely stunning." He says and I blush. 

"Is it a bit forward if I ask if you're single?" He asks and I suck in a breath. 

Ashlynn told me I should get out there now that I am single. That I should be dating. 

"Sorry I'm not." I say and he nods in understanding, "Figured someone snatched you up already. You tell whoever this guy is how lucky he is." Zane says before heading over to the tent.

I don't know what is it, but something held me back from telling the truth. It isn't Austin. 

There was just this feeling I can't explain. 

"If one more sweaty ass man touches me I am going to lose it." Ash says walking up to me. 

I bite my bottom lip to keep from laughing. 

She points to the guy with curly hair, "He smells like pickles Ava. Pickles. I was stuck next to him for twenty minutes because that stupid photographer couldn't get the shot right." She says and now that I look closer she does look a little pale.
