Watch Me

Chapter 7

Colton and Zoe walked into the main entrance and saw Jesse waiting for them. He smiled. "Good morning, guys. Thanks for coming in early. We're going to do the shots in Studio 2, since it gets the best light this early in the morning. Let's go." The three of them walked upstairs and entered Studio 2 where Anna, Robert and Kelley, the photographer that they always used stood smiling in front of a large off-white back drop.

"Morning guys," Anna said. "Ready for some pictures?"

Zoe smiled. "You bet. What did you want me in?"

"What did you bring?" Kelley asked.

Zoe dug in her bag and pulled out a black halter leotard, an emerald green crop top and a red leotard. She hung them on the barre and looked at Kelley. "Plus, I'm wearing a nude tube top."

Anna smiled. "This is why I love you Zoe. You're always prepared." She turned to Colton in his gray T-shirt. "Did you bring anything?"

He smiled. "I have a black shirt and a white one as well."

"You guys rock." Kelley said as she looked at Zoe's outfits. "Not to mention great choices." She turned and looked at Zoe. "You said you were wearing a nude tube top." Zoe nodded. "Ok, then let's try that first." She turned to Colton. "Why don't you take off your shirt and we'll do a topless shot first and see where we go from there." Colton took off his shirt and Zoe took off her sweatshirt. "Zoe, take out the bun and let's see what it looks like with your hair down." Colton watched as she took out her hair down and ran her fingers through it, leaving it in soft waves down her back. Between the implied nudity and her hair down he was having a hard time not staring and wanting her. He took a deep breath regaining his composure.

"Let's try face to face first. Zoe, put your hand on his chest. Colton, cover her hand with yours and look in each other in the eyes and think love," Robert said.

Zoe smiled and turned towards Colton. Whoa, she thought to herself as she looked at him shirtless. His broad chest led into a very well-toned six pack, his jeans hanging low on his hips. Damn, she thought to herself, I knew he had a nice chest, but who knew he was packing all that under his shirt? He noticed the way she looked him and smiled as she walked towards him. She put her left arm around his waist and stood on her tip toes as she placed her hand on his chest. Her body surged with heat as he placed his arm around hers and held her hand on his chest. She looked up and into his eyes. She saw the desire behind them and knew he saw hers as well. The rest of the room disappeared as their desire threatened to drown them both.

"Wow. Great first shot," Kelley said as she fanned herself. "Ok, now I want you two to go back-to-back. Zoe, I want your head against his shoulder and you looking up with your eyes closed. Colton, I want your head down and your eyes closed as well." They got into position and took another picture. "Ok, last position I want to try. Zoe, I want you to stand behind him with your head on his back and your hands on his chest. Colton, your hands on hers and I want you both to look towards me. Got it?" They got into the position she asked, Zoe feeling Colton's heart beat a bit faster as she laid her hands on his bare chest, her own picked up when he touched her hands. Kelley took the shots and smiled. "That was great. Let's look at these and we'll figure out what's next." Zoe and Colton separated and looked at each other.

"Not exactly what I pictured when you said topless," he said as he smiled at her.

Zoe laughed. "Not my first promotional shoot."

"Ok," Robert said as the finished looking at the shots Kelly had already taken. "Those are great, but now I want to put a little color in there. Zoe, we set up a makeshift change room in 1, so why don't you go put the red on. Colton, I want you in black."
