She laughed. Since last night. But she hadn't exactly been concerned about drawing that body. But now that she thought about it, she wouldn't mind drawing that body naked either. Maybe one day she'd ask Ben if she could use him for some practice. But knowing him, she'd have to "pay" him somehow.
"Sarah! You better get going if you want to get to class on time!" her mum yelled from down the stairs. She gave herself a quick glance in the mirror and decided she better get ready.
He opened the door and smiled at the small petite girl in the corner. "Hey Melinda!" she turned around and smiled joyfully. "Ben I'm so glad you could make it." She walked over and gave him a kiss on his cheek. "I can't thank you enough for doing this. You're the only person I know that would." He smiled. "No problem. Now, what do I need to do?" She smiled. "Just follow me".
"Daniel! I didn't know you were into art also!" Sarah said. Daniel smiled. "Yeah, I guess it comes with the territory. Didn't think I'd make it, though." She smirked. "Yeah, I'm surprised you're still awake, Spiderdan." Daniel frowned. "Spiderdan?" Sarah dropped her jaw. "You don't remember that?" He shook his head. She laughed. "Oh, Dan, I have lots to tell you about, then. Here," she grabbed his wrist and started leading him to the front, "sit next to me and I'll start telling you."
Daniel put his stuff on the table, right next to where she was sitting, and turned to listen. "So, what's this about Spiderdan?" Sarah was about to talk when Ms. Marchesky walked out.
"Good afternoon, everyone. I'm sorry I'm late. I had to get the model ready for today. As you all know, we're starting our study of the human body. Today I have a friend who volunteered to model for the class. It's a male, so all you males in class, I'm sorry, but suck it up, and maybe if you're nice, next week I'll have a female." "Well, looks like I lucked out for the first day, eh?" Sarah whispered to Daniel. He nodded.
"Ready?" Ms. Marchesky called out to the room. "Yeah!" a familar voice said. Sarah frowned. Where did she know that voice from? She turned to ask Daniel, but before she could say anything, she saw that Daniel had the same perplexed look on his face. "Recognize the voice also?" she asked and he nodded.
Melinda Marchesky opened the door and out walked a quite naked Ben. He strutted out and took his place on the stool.
Daniel's mouth dropped. "Oh no way!" he shrieked, closing his eyes. Sarah's eyes grew and lit up. "Oh yeah!" she said. Ben turned his attention to the front row. There he saw a happy Sarah and a freaking out Daniel. He walked over to their table and said "Hey babies..."
Daniel pushed his sketch pad off the table and turned his back to Ben. "I will NOT draw Ben naked, Ms. Marchesky." Sarah smiled and raised her hand. Melinda pointed to her. "Yes, Sarah?" Daniel turned to Sarah, who was smiling. "I think Ben makes a good choice. He's very muscular, so that adds to the detail we can elaborate on." Daniel gave Sarah a quite evil look. Ms. Marchesky nodded. "Yes, I agree," she glared at Daniel, "Daniel, as I said before, suck it up. Besides, you leave this class, and that's your last allowed absence. You'll be dropped from this class." At this point, Ben had already returned to the stool, and the rest of the class was already sketching Ben's quite naked self, Sarah included. Daniel looked at Melinda, then, wincing, at Ben, who winked at him. He shuddered. "Fine." he said stubbornly. He picked his sketch book up off the floor and started to draw (unwillingly) his naked buddy.
"Oh, I'm so sorry!" she said. Chris looked at the girl. The first thing he noticed was her skirt. He was tempted to ask her why she bothered wearing one, because there was barely a skirt there. However, with her legs, he didn't ask. As he worked his way up, he saw a quite shapely girl. He wondered why he hadn't seen her before. "Oh, that's ok. What's your name?" he asked. She smiled. "My name's Rachel. What's yours?" He smiled back. "I'm Chris. Where are you going right now?" she shrugged. "Oh, I was going to grab a bite to eat. I'm by myself though.. would you like to join me?" He grinned. "Sure!" He opened the door for her, and she walked in..
...with the biggest look of satisfaction on her face. She couldn't believe it worked. That whole running into him thing worked. Rachel was in love with Chris. And finally, he knew who she was. She had had a class with him their last year, and everyday she had watched him. However, she had never got the guts to talk to him. Well, over the summer, she became friends with Kaytea, and found out that they were dating. Speed up to this morning. Kayt had called Rachel to tell her about last night, and since she had heard about the whole Jamie ordeal, she deduced that Chris was open to side-relationships. Opportunity knocked. When Kayt told Rachel that her and Chris had plans, Rachel knew she had to sabotage it. And she did. She called Chris, using her best Kayt voice, and changed their meeting time from 5:00 to 4:00. And so there they were. "Sit, madam" he smiled at her, pulling out the chair for her. Oh yes..It was a good afternoon.
