Precious Orchids : Part 2
‘You could disguise
yourself and try to seduce him. If the
smug git really knows your pussy that well, the minute he went down on you he'd know he’s been tricked. And you
could have a laugh about it.’
‘But what if he
didn’t guess it was me?’
‘Then, being a man,
he’d probably screw you, which would prove he’s capable of cheating.’
This confused me. ‘That’s kind of twisted,
isn’t it?’
‘Not at all. Just harmless fun.’
‘Anyway,’ I’d
shrugged. ‘It wouldn’t work. He’d know
it was me, unless I looked completely different.’
‘I could transform
you. I can transform anyone. It’s my job.
Best make-up artist in the business,’ boasted Val, who had been a
make-up assistant on the Harry Potter films. ‘Think about it. I’ll get us another drink. Same again?’
The
next day, I’d woken up with a massive hangover and a hazy memory of our odd
conversation. But as my head became
clearer, I’d considered Val’s idea a little more seriously. Me and Harry had been together now for five
years. We’d settled into a domestic
routine, and I had to admit our relationship had become complacent. I’d lied when I told Val the sex was still
great between us. It wasn’t bad - just a
bit samey. Perhaps it wouldn’t hurt to
spice things up a bit. So Val and I
began to plot a whole scenario.
‘It’s not enough for
you to look unrecognisable,’ Val decided. ‘For the plan to succeed, Harry will
have to see you in a completely unexpected environment. Where would he think you’d never dream of
going?’
I considered for a moment. ‘Apart from a football match? Somewhere like a sleazy night club.’
‘Great. That’s it then. That’s where he has to pick you up.’
I was horrified. ‘But why would I be at a seedy club?’
‘To put on a show,
of course!’
‘You’re kidding.’
‘I know where you
can go to learn proper burlesque striptease,’ continued Val, full of
enthusiasm. ‘They teach you properly.’
‘No way.’
‘Don’t be such a
wimp. I’ll come with you. Quite fancy
learning myself.’
So, after more cajoling from Val and
a glass or two of wine, we’d gone to a burlesque workshop together. It was a bit of a joke at first, and I did
feel slightly self-conscious to start with, but once I got over my initial
shyness, I began to enjoy myself. Like I was tapping into a hidden part of me I
didn’t know existed. Maybe I secretly
liked the idea of showing my body off, but under a totally different persona. Pretending to be someone else kind of freed my
inhibitions. I booked some extra
practice sessions until I had worked out a sexy little routine. Our plan was
coming together........
