Online Book “Taking Chances” Chapter 14:
I had just delivered Courtney’s coffee and returned to the
kitchen to scrounge up some breakfast when Seth called. “I know it’s short
notice,” he started, seeming almost nervous, “but would you have any interest
in joining me at my family’s weekly brunch?” He paused a second then added,
“You really don’t have to if you don’t want to. I wouldn’t go if my presence
wasn’t required.”
“I’d love to,” I responded. “When?”
“Pick you up in an hour?”
“Sure.” I tried not to let the panic ring through in my
voice as we said our goodbyes. As soon as I touched the End Call button, I
screeched up the stairs, “Court! What does one wear to a fancy Sunday brunch?”
“Hell if I know,” she grouched. Clearly her caffeine hadn’t
kicked in yet. I took the stairs two at a time, so we could have this
discussion in person.
I peeked around the corner of her doorway. “Help. His whole
family will be there, and I have no idea what to wear.”
“He must have the serious hots for you, calling for another
date half an hour after he leaves,” she mumbled. “You gonna be back in time for
girls’ night?” She looked accusingly at me.
“Of course! I would never bail on you for a boy.” It was
usually Court turning away men to maintain the sanctity of our weekly girl
time. This was the first time I had the choice. Not that it was a choice. I
loved spending time with Seth, but Sunday nights at Joe’s with Court were our
sacred ritual.
She seemed to think about it for a second, then she huffed.
“All right then.” She started digging in the back of her closet. She was so far
back into her closet that I wondered what relic she was going to pull out.
“Don’t laugh,” she ordered as she surfaced with a dress that shocked me. It was
white with a flared skirt, which was covered with brightly colored flowers. The
low cut bodice was a deep purple and it had a large, bright pink belt. It was
perfect for my brunch, but so not Courtney.
“It’s beautiful!” I said honestly, smiling and trying not to
laugh at my mental picture of Courtney wearing this ensemble. “It’s just not
exactly your style.” I tried to be tactful.
“I went through a phase,” she rolled her eyes, “but I’ve
never actually worn it.” She dove back into her closet and this time came out
with a pair of strappy sandals with jewels that matched the flowers on the
dress.
I shook my head at her. “Perfect. Thank you. I’m so glad I
gave you the room with the big closet,” I said, giving her a quick hug. Then I
grabbed my goodies and ran to my bathroom to shower.
Forty-five minutes later I came downstairs looking like
someone who brunches. My hair was in a cute topknot and I had even put on
makeup. I had the pink lips and cheeks to prove it. The dress and shoes really
were perfect, except for one tiny problem. Well, not so tiny. Courtney’s chest
was nowhere near the size of mine. I had managed to squeeze my upper half into
the dress, but all of the extra flesh had to go somewhere, and it had chosen to
billow up and out. I had fidgeted with my boobs for five of the forty-five
minutes, and then tried to convince myself that no one would notice.
“Whoa, your cup runneth over.” Courtney grinned.
I whirled around and started to head back up the stairs,
humiliated. My clothes weren’t nearly as cute as Court’s, but at least my tits
stayed in them.
“Wait! You look fantastic. I’m just jealous. He’s not going
to be able to pry his eyes away from you or your fantastic jugs.”
I turned. “Are you sure it’s not too much?” I asked,
grabbing them.
“It’s just right,” she reassured me. “Now let’s go sit on
the front porch swing because I want a front row seat when he sees them. I mean
you,” she quickly amended when she saw my concerned look.
She wasn’t disappointed. When Seth hopped out of his Jeep
and walked up to greet us, his eyes nearly popped out of his head. I was
embarrassed, but then he smiled a huge, sweet, happy, sexy smile, and I was
truly grateful for my bodacious tatas for the first time in my entire life.
“You look fantastic,” he said sincerely. “Ready to roll?”
“Let’s go,” I said. Deciding to enjoy this a little, I bent down pretending to fix something on my shoe and looked up to see him openly gawking down the deep cleavage I had just bared to him. I stood and turned to grin at Court and give her a thumb’s-up before walking hand-in-hand with Seth to his Jeep.
