"I'm not going to argue with that, mainly because I don't want to think about it."

Adrianne smirked. "Mainly because you know I'm right."

Embarrassment aside, everyone was in agreement that they ended up with the perfect dancer for the evening. She was understanding of the younger woman's reluctance, making the whole thing much more playful than sexual. The good-humored brunette even spent ten minutes talking with the women like an old friend while sitting in Kim's lap with an arm thrown around the assistant's neck as if it belonged there. She was allowing the assistant to get comfortable with her presence before anything actually started.

Slowly but surely Kim was beginning to relax. And while she laughed and looked away as the teasing stripper placed the blushing bride to be's hands on her breasts, she didn't pull away. It was all in good fun and left the apartment filled with laughter.

Even after a few more drinks, Kim really loosened up, joining the topless woman in the middle of the living room to dance as well. Camila cheered her on and even started slipping singles into the back jean pockets and belt loops. The brunette moved up to fives and even a few tens when the drunken assistant started giving Lauren a playful lapdance, leaving the raven-haired in hysterics.

"I will never see you the same again after tonight, Kim. Never again. And I had no idea you could dance like that."

Kim retreated to her drink on the countertop, fanning herself as she went. "I've got the moves, just not the confidence."

"I disagree." The dancer argued from her place in one of the chairs. "Or is that just the alcohol I'm seeing?"

"It's a lot of things. The alcohol is just the biggest of them."

"What is Adrianne going to say after I tell her about tonight?" Lauren joked but Kim brushed the comment off.

"Not a damn thing. She knows about this side of me very well, and she definitely won't say anything after what I have planned for her tonight."

"Get it, girl," Clara added, downing her last shot of the evening.

"Oh, I plan on it." She stated, swaying just slightly as she looked around the room. "Thank you, ladies, for this evening. I was actually dreading it, but tonight turned out to be so much fun. Thank you. And thank you." She addressed the still topless stripper, pulling her into a hug. "Thank you for having such a good sense of humor and patience with me."

"Are you kidding? Tonight was a blast. Thank you."

Camila leaned over to whisper in Lauren's ear, keeping her eyes on the two brunette's as they hugged again. "I do think this is a unique ending to a bachelorette party."

"Camila, the whole evening was unique. At least we know the wedding is going to be normal."

The brunette huffed a laugh. "We hope."

~/~/~/~

It was the night before the wedding and Camila woke up around one, alone. She smiled brightly at the image of Lauren in the kitchen with her ice cream in hand, spoon in mouth, and an orgasmic expression on her face. The brunette threw back the blankets and slowly made her way down the stairs to keep her wife company. Her brow dropped as she reached the foot of the stairs and didn't see the raven-haired.

"Lauren?"

"In here."

Camila turned to see the office light on and ventured towards the open door. Lauren was rocking gently in her chair, her hands running over her baby bump as she looked over their ever-growing mural on the wall. They had added pictures from the wedding and honeymoon a long time ago. They had also added a candid shot from Adrianne of Lauren calming Camila's nerves backstage before the first show of her new play. There was another candid that Kim had taken and surprised them with when Adrianne and Lauren were featured jointly at an open gallery. Camila was beaming with pride at her wife.
