Sexy Ladies (3)

"Sexy Ladies" -- Justin Timberlake

"By the way, you look gorgeous tonight," Jaden commented as they walked down the two flights of stairs.

A tinge of a blush staining her cheeks, Georgie thanked her for the compliment. She had been highly self-conscious about putting on the outfit that Vanessa insisted that she wear. Georgie was no stranger to skirts, but this one went below--or should that be above--her normal length. Barely reaching mid-thigh, the soft leather butterscotch skirt with a matching jacket belonged to Vanessa. When her friend removed the ensemble from her closet, Georgie suddenly found it unfortunate that they wore the same sizes in clothing. Compared to Jaden who was wearing a pair of straight leg tan chinos along with a rust colored long-sleeved tee, Georgie felt a little underdressed.

"You don't think I should change?" the real estate agent inquired, wanting to run back up the stairs and throw on a pair of slacks. Since Vanessa had already left to visit her boyfriend, she wouldn't be able to stop her.

"Why would you?"

Georgie blushed again. "Um...this skirt is sort of...short."

Her feet coming to a standstill, Jaden focused on the smaller woman, baby blue eyes gradually roaming over her body. Instead of feeling the expected embarrassment, Georgie basked in the attention. The singer took a full ten seconds inspecting before her eyes lifted to meet Georgie's.

"I wouldn't change a thing about you."

Just how much blushing could she endure before her face burst into flames?

Although at first overwhelmed by the sheer size of Jaden's vehicle, Georgie immediately fell in love with the powerful ocean blue Hummer after only a few minutes of being a passenger. She almost hated to leave it when they arrived at the seafood restaurant in Malibu. However, a growling stomach made the decision much easier.

Upon entering the busy restaurant, Jaden and Georgie were quickly shown to their table, which afforded a terrific view of the Pacific. Ordering their drinks, Jaden insisted that Georgie have a flute of champagne though she settled for ginger ale. After the waiter left with the drink orders, Georgie eyed her companion curiously.

"Are you trying to get me drunk, Jaden?" she asked in a tone that sounded much too flirtatious. Oh, please don't think that I'm hitting on you! Am I hitting on you? Since when was I so brazen?

The singer chuckled. "No, I would never! I just think that since this is a celebration dinner, at least one of us should have some champagne. It's the congratulatory drink you know."

"So, you're not drinking any because you're driving?"

"I don't drink period."

She would have inquired why, but something held Georgie back. She decided not to comment on Jaden's brief explanation, although her mind was reeling. "We should make a toast." When Jaden agreed with a smile, Georgie focused on her lips and wondered how it would feel to touch them. Lucky Vanessa! Her friend had succeeded in kissing the celebrity twice.

Within a few more moments, the waiter delivered their drinks and the couple made a toast, each saying a few words before gently tapping glass against glass. Afterwards, they began to peruse the menu, Jaden doing so after putting on a pair of oval-shaped glasses with basic silver frames. Grinning, the agent observed the other woman, watching her lips moving ever so slightly as she read. Though Jaden had worn the glasses on other occasions, she looked particularly adorable in them tonight.
