Watch Me (An Erotic Short Story) by Rachelle Vaughn Page B

The woman laughed at something he said and took out her wallet. He looked in Lana’s direction, gave her a wink and tu r ned back to his customer .
    Lana smiled to herself. Even though he was helping a woman, he was still thinking of her. Good. She would be sure to reward him later for his attentiveness.
    Just then, a man dressed all in black walked into the lingerie store. He had an emo hairstyle with bangs falling into his eyes and a spiked collar around his neck. Obviously out of his element, Lana turned on the charm.
    “Hi,” she greeted him with a smile. “Can I help you find something?”
    He smiled weakly at her. “I hope so. I’m looking for a birthday gift for my fiancé.” He pushed his bangs off his face and they immediately fell back down into his eyes.
    “Okay,” Lana said and led him over to the Va Va Vamp Collection. “These corsets are really popular.” She picked up a red corset to show him the lace trim detail . “ T hey come in a variety of different colors , too .”
    His faced turned the color of the crimson satin and he shuffled his feet. “Yeah, that’s cool and everything , but she’d probably like something a little more…”
    “Feminine?”
    “Yeah.” He looked relieved that she had read his mind.
    “Sure. ” Lana moved over to the Babydoll Dreams Collection. “ How about something like this?” She chose a frilly lace babydoll with a pink satin bow and held it up .
    He grinned and nodded. “ She’d love that .”

    A short time later, when another male customer strode into the store, a big smile spread across Lana’s face. The man was young, tall and extremely athletic. He was probably one of those hockey players who played for the Red Valley Razors. Lana liked athletes. Anyone who worked up a sweat for a living definitely captured her interest.
    “ Are you looking for something in particular ?” Lana asked him sweetly.
    “Yeah.” He hooked h is sunglasses into the neck of his tee shirt and looked around the store. “ I’m looking for something for my girlfriend. It’s our anniversary and I know she’s expecting something special.”
    “Well, you came to the right place. We have lots of special items.” Taking a chance, she led him to the Rock S tar Collection and showed him something edgy to start off with . “How about something like this?” she asked, holding up a vinyl bustier with black ribbon lacing.
    He smiled. “That’s perfect. She’s really into that rock ‘n ’ roll stuff. How’d you guess?”
    “Oh,” Lana said, cocking her head to the side. “I just have an eye for these things.”
    He shot her another knee-weakening smile and then it faded away. “The only thing is…I have no idea what size she is. Shit. I guess that’s something I should probably know.”
    “That’s okay,” Lana reassured him with a pat on the arm. Oooh , nice muscles . “What size are her breasts compared to mine?”
    The athlete frowned and looked down at Lana’s chest .
    She turned to the side so he could survey her from every angle.
    He tilted his head from side to side and pursed his lips . “Um, they’re probably a little bit smaller.”
    “Okay.”
    “Yeah,” he decided. “Just a little, but not by much.”
    “She’s probably a C cup then.” Lana selected a bustier in the corresponding size and led him over to the register. “I’ll gift wrap it for you and if it ends up being the wrong size, she can always exchange it.”
    “Thanks. You’ve been very helpful.”
    Lana smiled and handed him the gift bag. “It was my pleasure.”
    A glance at the watch kiosk reaffirmed Lana’s hunch. He was still watching her. In fact, his gaze bore right through her clothes and she could almost feel his eyes directly on her skin from across the mall . She shivered in anticipation and focused her attention back to the customer leaving the store .
    There were still a couple of hours until closing time and she planned on making the most of them.
