Smart Can Be Sexy

Chapter 9

It was the Christmas Party night and me and Jess got ready together. I was wearing a red, tight dress.

Jess had a quirky, white dress on which is exactly her style.
We finished getting ready and Jess went ahead to help Kat with the decorations.  I heard my doorbell go but I was in the bathroom finishing up my hair.
"Come in!" I shout as I spray my hair with hairspray.
"Tori? Where are you?" Tom asks as he closes my door.
"I'm in the bathroom!"
I hear Tom coming so I go to put my lipstick on and open the door.
"Oh...oh my-Okay...wow I mean! Yeah woowwww okay...jeez Tori I mean..." Tom splutters our random words and I laugh.
"I look okay then?" I turn around and bounce my long curls.
"Okay? No tori you look..." Tom steps closer to me and puts his hands on my hips.
"Hot...to be frank. You look hot like so hot I don't know what to do with myself." Tom giggles. I laugh.
"You look very nice!" I say.

"You look hot too," I wink at him and turn around.
"Tori do not flirt with me like that when you look like that I really can't deal!" Tom slips his hands around my hips from behind as I put my lipstick on. I giggle.
"Tom, I want you to stay with me most of the night," I start to say.
"I mean yeah sure, why?"
"There's a girl who is Jess' client and she is very attractive and wants to steal you!" I blurt out.
"Steal me? As in from you?" Tom asks.
"Yes as in from me! That isn't the important part though!"
"Yeah but you're basically saying I'm yours, right?" He cheekily grind.
"I guess so," I turn around. Tom leans in for a kiss that is long awaited but I pull away.
"Ah, ah, ahh! Lipstick!" I point to my lips.
"Tori! What are you doing to me?!" Tom pleads. I grab my bag and we head out. Once we get there I see Jess come towards us. I hug her.
"There is a lot of people here Jess!" I say.
"Yeah I know it's all Kat's model friends so it's not too bad!" Jess exclaims.
"Oh my goodness! Tori you look a treat!" I hear the high, annoying voice come closer. I turn around to see her in an elegant, emerald green, way-to-fancy-for-an-office-party-dress.
"Kat! Hi!" I hug her, letting go of Toms hand.
"Wow! Didn't realise you had a nice body!" She exclaims. Wow thanks Kat.
"And this must be Tom!" Kat extends her arms and Tom didn't expect it so he awkwardly giggled.
"I'm Kat!"
"Nice to meet you Kat, the party looks great," He says, grabbing my waist.
"Thank you so much!" She plays with her hair now clearly flirting.
"Well me and Tom are going to get a drink so we'll talk later Kat!" I say as I drag Tom with me.
"Is she?"
"Yes she's the model who loves you," I say.
"I mean...she's pretty," Ugh I knew it.
"But no where near as pretty as you." Tom says as he grabs us a beer.
"Wow!" I say happily.
"What?"
"I thought you'd like her more than me and want to spend the whole night with her like most guys do,"
"Well I'm not like other guys, I'd rather spend the night with the woman I love." Tom says. Awww...Wait.
"Love?"
"Yes, I love you tori, like a whole lot!" Tom pulls me in by the waist.
"I love you too," I smile as we kiss. I put my arm on his bicep and move his hands to my butt and he smiles through the kiss.
"Be my girlfriend?" Tom asks.
"Of course I will." I whisper. We go back in for the kiss.
"Oops! Sorry to interrupt!" Kat clearly interrupts. She then pushes me to the side and stands in front of Tom.
"Hey by any chance do you know how to change a lightbulb?" Kat asks.
"Yeah I do, do you need any help?" Tom asks.
"Yeah one of the lights in Jess' studio has stopped working and we wanted to do some photos with everyone!"
"Okay, I'll come and fix it," Tom places his beer down. I follow them.
"Actually Tori, you'll just make the room more crowded so could you just stay outside? Thanks hun!" She says it so fast and moves away that I don't even have a say. That bitch!
