Thread: The Manor (DudeMeister&SHARPii)

Teaching job? Landed. Apartment? Landed. Money? She had no idea how it all went away so fast. Harper Collins was an elementary school teacher, fresh out of college and one of the best already to be hired immediately given the only experience she had was from her practicum during her final semester. Apparently she did really well because she had gotten offered jobs in the town she did school in. But her desire was here in Seattle, Washington. It was expensive to live here but the schools were wonderful and she had always wanted to come here. She grew up in a small town and always wanted to leave. There was nothing for her there. So she went to the university in the larger part of the state and then got a job here in her dream place. It was perfect. If she had money. Her roommate Stephanie had offered for her to make an easy few grand one night. All shed have to do was dress up really nice and simply be eye candy for a bunch of men. When she first said that, Harpers eyes nearly popped out of her skull. Then Stephanie told her it wasnt like that and all she would have to do was simply be charming, talkative and make the men want her. Once more, Harper was about to instantly decline and then Stephanie finally said she wouldnt be sleeping with anyone. Unless she wanted to. That was about a week ago. Steph told her she had two weeks to give her an answer. It was the second week and she was sitting in their apartment, nursing a cup of tea when Stephanie walked in, settled in and then sat before her. Well? Harper sighed deeply. Hi to you too roomie. She teased. Stephanie giggled. You know what I mean. Do I? She narrowed her eyes playfully. I need an answer Harper. I have to let my boss know so she can make the arrangements. And dont worry about costs. I told her Id take care of you. Steph, I cant ask that of you. Does that mean youre saying yes? Harper sighed and she looked at her, giving her a small nod. Splendid! Come on, we have to go shopping! Stephanie didnt let her press any further on the paying. She learned in the short time that when her roommate had her mind set on something, there was no changing her mind. They went shopping and got all that was needed. The night came where she was going to abandon her life as a school teacher for one night and become a woman that every many should want. That was how it worked. That day they both went to every kind of salon possible to get what was needed. Harper stood before her mirror now clad in a beautiful black floor-length ball gown with a lace overlay, strapless and really accentuated her curves. It was corseted at the top and flared out into this sort of form fitting dress to the hips before it flowed out in a gorgeous full skirt with layers of tulle and shed need at least four inch heels to be able to walk in it. Harper had been plucked, pampered and primped all day long. Her skin looked cleaner than it did in ages, her hair shone in a way she had never seen it and her eyes popped out of her eyes in the glow of the light because of the smoky eye make up she was given. She almost didnt recognize herself after Stephanie helped her into the dress. With her heels on now, cute little black loubatins, she gained four inches and would only slightly have to pick up her skirt to walk. A knock came to her door and it opened and she saw Stephanie in her dark red number. The woman looked impeccable and came carrying two masks. Masks? Its a masquerade ball. She smiled, a suggestive twinkle in her eyes. Harper had to refrain from rolling her eyes as her friend put the mask on her. When they were both ready, they got into the limo that came for them and set destination to the party. Where are we going again? Youll see. Come on, tell me. If I tell you, you wont be surprised. Im a great actress. And then she pouted. Stephanie rolled her eyes before speaking, The Manor.
