machine we keep for them. Then they can make us clothes! That will keep them occupied for at least three or four days!” she says, bouncing up and down as she lays out her plan.
    “Why don’t you just buy clothes from stores… you know where they sell designer clothes,” Melissa leers at us.
    Opening my mouth again I snap it shut… again…
    It’s just not worth it.
    “Why don’t you go to work?” Lexi snaps at her.
    Where did that come from?
    I watch Melissa huff her way where she has to go and glance back at Lexi with a bright smile.
    “I freaking hate her,” she barks at me.
    “Whatever you say.” I shrug.
    Thinking over Lexi’s plan, I have to admit it is pretty amazing. How did we not think to do this before?
    The photographer Andrew motions for us to join them.
    Pushing off the board that is holding mine and Kate’s things, I grab my apron that is filled with everything I just used on him—for touch-ups. 
    “Just watch the cords so you don’t trip and stand by with some tissues. It’s getting hot under these lights, and I need you to fix his makeup every few shots so those marks won’t show up,” Andrew informs me.
    Waving back a silent okay, ready whenever you are, we begin. Lexi comes over after grabbing her apron and stands next to me, silent for a little while. 
    Probably pondering how we are going to afford bail and rent this month.
    However I can’t stop looking at GQ with his shirt off.  He has a nice tan that’s probably from running in the sun and the lighting they use just enhances the deep tone, along with every muscle on his chest and in his arms…
    I wonder what it would be like to date him… or at least be a body artist.
    Everyone gathers their things to move to set but I still have some shading left to do on his chest and lower abs. The sudden rise in temperature has his skin glistening with sweat as I kneel in front of him trying to dab it away before it runs down his stomach.
    “You missed a spot,” he says, his breathy voice sending shivers over my skin.
    Taking my hand in his, he glides it lower until my fingers are resting on his waistband.
    My eyes fixate on this thin piece of material that lays between me and him.
    Grazing my fingertip across the sensitive spot I watch his stomach tighten, and my heart starts pounding against my chest.
    My throat is tightening from what feels like a loss of oxygen. The room that once fit twenty odd people now feels too small for the two of us.
    His hand is still lingering on mine, brushing lighting over the back of my hand as I continue to tease him. He begins to drag the tips of his fingers up my arm and then back down, repeating the motion over and over. Each time making the journey slower. His touch leaves goosebumps all over my skin, and I’m paralyzed at his waist. I close my eyes when he starts to lower himself. I should leave, this is completely unprofessional. As the thought enters my mind his hand cups my jaw, his thumb running over my lips, and I involuntarily swallow while my lips part.
    My head is spinning, the blood pumps through my ears, and my chest rises and falls with each panting breath.
    I want this… I need this…
    Bringing my hand up to the back of his neck, I twist my fingers into his hair. My lips tingle with desire as he leans in, slightly brushing against my lips when he whispers my name.
    Sucking in my bottom lip, I grin wide, my heart racing so fast I think it might explode out of my chest. Yes, I’ve waited an eternity for this. I open my eyes to see his beautiful dark blue eyes, his perfect ink black hair…
    You’ve got to be kidding me!
    I can’t even have a good daydream without him ruining it!
    “SID-NEY!” Lexi growls through her teeth.
    The sudden pain from her elbow to my side is all I can focus on now. I focus and see they are repositioning him. People are walking past us moving things in and out of the next shot.
    “I hate you,” I whine, trying to gather my newly wrecked
