Chapter Seven
Between sitting onmy plans to expose Ms. G, and trying not to overthink Grayson and Jax’s behavior post move-in, I had a lot of excess energy to burn. I poured a bit of it into decorating my room for Christmas. Evergreen-colored garland decorated with strings of red lights and white lights hung along my wall, and I had holiday wall scrolls to break up the design. I loved the way it looked for me, and on camera.
That was done now, and I could go back to focusing on acting normal around Grayson. That should be easy, since Grayson and I did things together all the time similar to what I had planned for today.
I dropped into my computer chair, careful not to let my outfit ride too high or drop too low, and surveyed the filming corner of my bedroom. In just a few minutes, I was taking the last clips I needed to create my Furry Christmas Cosplay How-To video.
The outfits themselves were easy to make, and I’d already filmed myself doing so. The red fleece tops were trimmed with white, and had hoods with puppy ears for the guys and kitty ears for the girls. My outfit had a skirt that barely covered my ass, and thigh-high stockings. There were two variations on each top. A long-sleeved, jacket style, and a sleeveless, fitted vest.
Grayson was going to be my model for the puppy clothing. One piece at a time to show them off, and then the entire outfit. He’d done this for me so often that I knew his measurements by heart, and the vest would give my subscribers the fan service they expected from him.
They’d get the same from me. I was already wearing the skirt, and the low-cut top that pushed my cleavage up. I was going to look incredible helping him dress up.
There were two big upsides to these collaborations—it brought in both of our fans and pushed my viewer numbers through the roof, but more importantly, it gave me the perfect excuse to run my hands all over Grayson’s body.
Which... how did I ever think that was innocent? Because he had a boyfriend. Even if the touchingdidn’tmean anything, I’d never believe it again. He’d watched—jerked off—while said boyfriend fucked me. A pulse throbbed between my thighs at the whispers of memory.
A sharp whistle cut through my swelling desire, and I whirled to see Grayson in my doorway. It was instinct to strike a sexy pose—our joint videos frequently started with his appreciation for my outfit of the day—but today his reaction also cranked the heat racing through my veins. How long until my face matched my clothes?
The way he leaned against my doorframe accentuated the ripple of muscle along his torso and upper arms. “Where do you want me, bosslady?”
On the bed. On the floor. Pinning me against the wall... “It’s a standard shoot.” I jerked a thumb toward an empty space I’d set up for this part of recording. “A piece of clothing at a time, and pose.”
“All right.” He kicked away from the wall. His cheerful tone clashed with his frown.
“What’s wrong?”
“When do we film me helping you into and out of your clothes?”
That was new, even for us. I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t have brushed off something that direct as status quo, even in the past. “I’m not taking it off the table.”
His grin turned my insides gooey.
Act normal. That was all I had to do.
Had we ever really beennormal?
“Shirt off.” I had a remote for my camera tucked under my bra strap. It would make it easier to keep both of us in the right position without having to recordeverything.
“I love the way you say that.” Grayson stripping his T-shirt off was a gorgeous sight to behold.
I took advantage of the half second his eyes were covered to stare, when I should have been using the time to compose myself. Something about this situation had to change or we wouldn’t get any work done.
“You ready for RinCon?” I asked as I handed him the tail belt, and stepped out of the frame.
He raised his brows but fitted the belt into place without argument.
I should have picked a better question to change the subject with. Not because it was unusual for us to talk about it—exactly the opposite. Our circle of friends lived and breathed RinCon in the weeks leading up to it, and there wasn’t much left to say at this point. He was going to use this video as a teaser to draw in more interest to his live streams during the event.
