Chapter 23 - A photo shoot in Huntington Hall
A very eerie silence settled over the university once all the students
had departed for the holidays. A couple of coffee shops in the student
center remained open to serve the handful of students living off campus
not traveling, but the dorm area was totally deserted. Even most of the
RA�s had left. A couple of her co-workers were coming back right after
New Year�s, but Cecilia was the only RA who would spend the entire
Christmas break in the dorm.
The dorm�s manager decided to make her duty RA during the break and give
her the keys to the entire building. In the morning she had to unlock
the service entrance to let the janitors in, but apart from that, she
would have Huntington Hall to herself until after New Year�s.
Two days after Jason left there was a heavy snowstorm that blanketed the
university. With the students gone and only the service entrance of
Huntington Hall remaining open, there was no need to shovel the
sidewalks. With the sidewalks buried under a foot of snow the dorm area
became even more deserted, silent, and desolate.
During the days she was snowed in, Cecilia was able to relax in many
small ways she couldn�t when the dorm was full of students. She greatly
enjoyed the silence surrounding her. The only noise she would hear
during those three weeks would be whatever noise she chose to make.
Sometimes she played classical music or a CD from �Socrates�
Mistresses�, but more often everything was turned off and her room was
as quiet as the rest of Huntington Hall. The quiet was very nice for a
soul starved for tranquility.
She remained busy, active on the Internet or preparing for the upcoming
semester. She spent several days making major revisions to the website
of �Socrates� Mistresses� and improving her knowledge of digital art and
web graphics. She experimented with sound files, looking for the format
that would best suit the band�s Internet needs. She got caught up on the
news by reading on-line articles and corresponding with Kimberly and
Cynthia Lee. The days flew by in spite of the void Jason�s absence had
left in her life.
For most of the break Cecilia didn�t bother to get dressed. Under the
influence of her boyfriend, during the fall semester she had become used
to sleeping naked. With the heat turned up in her room, she also enjoyed
not wearing anything while studying or relaxing. Even when she went to
the bathroom she knew there was no need to get dressed, since there was
no one else on the floor to see her. The first few trips she simply
wrapped herself in a towel when she went to pee or take a shower. Later,
as she became more comfortable walking around in the vacated building,
she began leaving her towel in her room. As she walked down the hallway
with the cool air blowing against her bare skin, she reflected how much
like Jason she had become in being comfortable with her body.
Three days after the dorm residents had left, Cecilia had built up
enough dirty clothes to need to do a load of wash. She made a rather
important decision; she would not get dressed when she took the dirty
clothing downstairs to the laundry room. Why bother? There was no one to
see her, and it would be nice to have every article of clothing in her
room clean and put away, with no exceptions. With her heart pounding and
the thrill of erotic excitement going through her thoughts, she walked
down the stairs wearing nothing but a pair of flip-flops. Her heart
continued to pound as she placed the clothes in the washing machine,
turned it on, and went back upstairs.
Naked, she made several more trips up and down the stairs to move her
clothes to a dryer and later pull them out. She unfolded an ironing
board and spent the next hour ironing and folding her clothes. She put
the ironed clothes in a basket or on hangers, and then made several more
naked trips up and down the stairs to move everything back to her room
and put it away. By the time she was finished, she no longer felt that
she was doing anything daring. She was becoming used to being naked
outside of her room and found it enjoyable.
From that point forward she began doing her building checks in the nude,
wearing just her sneakers and carrying the dorm keys and her radio. She
patrolled the deserted hallways several times a day to stretch her legs.
She enjoyed walking around the empty floors and exerting herself going
up and down the stairs.
From doing her building checks in the nude, Cecilia progressed to
exercising in the nude. In the director�s office there was a treadmill.
Because the environment outside was so bitterly cold, she had no desire
to go out, not even to stay in shape. Instead she decided to exercise on
the treadmill by walking and running, still dressed in nothing but her
sneakers. She did not have to worry about her boss catching her naked in
his office, because she had his dorm keys and he would need to radio her
if he wanted in the building. So, twice a day she entered the office to
spend an hour walking and jogging on the treadmill. By the end of
Christmas break she had worked herself up to running two miles non-stop
and walking an additional four miles.
Cecilia�s sexual urges did not diminish over her three-week confinement
in the dorm. With Jason absent from her life, she returned to her old
routine of self-pleasure. She spent countless hours masturbating and
gently caressing her body with her fingertips. Usually she stayed in her
room during her lengthy sessions of self-love, but not always. One of
the best orgasms during her three weeks of solitude came one night in
the commons area during a very heavy snowstorm. She sat in front of a
bay window on a sofa, caressing and fondling herself in the open room as
a layer of new snow blanketed the deserted university. What excited the
RA was the fact the window was in plain view of the entire campus, but
because she was sitting in the dark and it was snowing, she was
invisible to the outside. She wondered what the dorm�s freshmen would
think if they could have seen their no-nonsense RA sitting naked in the
commons area, sweaty and gasping, her legs spread to the world, giving
herself an orgasm.
----------
For the second time of her life, Cecilia faced the prospect of spending
Christmas alone. It was ironic that she had plenty of people in her life
who cared about her, but their circumstances prevented them from being
available to spend any time with her on Christmas.
Dealing with being alone at the end of December was very hard on her.
Christmas was the one time during each year Cecilia had good memories of
her life in New Jersey. She knew that it was easy idealize those few
pleasant moments that stood out in an otherwise very bleak life, but she
couldn�t help it. As hard as it was to believe, as Christmas loomed she
even missed her family.
Christmas always had been the one time during the year the Sanchez
family could ignore their personal problems and set aside their
disputes. Cecilia, her mother, and her cousin always spent a couple of
days preparing traditional Dominican dishes, so the family always ate
well during the last week of the year. Whatever money they had was spent
on gifts and decorations. Neighbors always came over, and there were
numerous invitations to visit other families in the housing project.
There were Church services and midnight masses, traditional Spanish
Christmas music to replace the ever-present Salsa and Rap that permeated
the project, and Christmas pageants at school and at church. Cecilia did
not miss very much of her life in New Jersey, but she did miss
Christmas.
She spent a lot of time corresponding with Kimberly Lee about Christmas
in Upper Danubia. Kim also missed Christmas, but for a different reason.
The Danubians did not have any major celebration of Christmas on
December 25, but instead combined the celebration of Christmas with
celebrating New Year�s a week later. The tradition was to spend the
hours before midnight with family members, then attend Temple services
for an hour, and then to spend the following day and evening visiting
friends and exchanging gifts.
�Christmas used to be a bigger deal than it is now, but since the
Danubians are getting back into their old religion, the Catholic
holidays don�t matter to them too much anymore. I miss my family and
sometimes miss the way we do things in the US, so I feel for you about
missing Christmas with your own family.�
----------
On the morning of December 24, Cecilia got a call from Suzanne Foster.
She was greatly surprised, because she had thought that Suzanne would be
off-campus like most of the other dorm residents. She had indeed left
for the holiday, but had to come back because of a fight with her
father. Her dorm director, aware of her difficult personal situation,
decided to waive the rule about having her stay out of her room over the
Christmas break and let her back in. She would have to eat out of the
dorm, but at least she could sleep in her room.
Suzanne was very upset over her latest fight with her father. She had
been forced to leave her family�s house the morning before Christmas and
faced spending the rest of her vacation alone on campus. Cecilia decided
to get together with her friend, have lunch, and give Suzanne a chance
to have someone to talk to. As bad as she felt for Suzanne, she was glad
to have a familiar face on campus to alleviate her own loneliness. For
the first time in over a week, Cecilia got dressed and nerved herself to
face the bitter cold outside to walk over to Suzanne�s dorm.
The two women crossed the university to eat at a restaurant just
off-campus, and then wandered around a bit until the stores began
closing. During that entire time Suzanne talked about a disastrous end
of the semester. In a three week period she had broken up with her
boyfriend, been accused of cheating on a term paper by a professor, and
had a vicious fight with her father.
�The cheating hassle was why I never called you when the Dukov group was
here. The ethics panel actually had me go to a hearing and I had to
bring in all my research stuff. I mean�I had to go to the library and
get all my books and take them over, dig up my notes�I even had to go
through the trash to get some scraps of paper that I took notes on. Any
you know why they accused me of cheating? Simply because the way I write
is kinda like the way one of the professors here writes. I didn�t even
know who the guy was, but they said I was copying his work. I�ll tell
you, I�m mad about this�really mad, and I told them that. Anyhow, they
cleared me, but I don�t know if really they believe me or not. And, I
don�t know if the professors are gonna trust me after this, because the
whole thing�s gotten around the department. Let this be a lesson to you,
keep your research notes for your papers.�
Suzanne vented her anger against her boyfriend, who was art major
specializing in painting. The guy had not really done anything all
semester except create a few very bad paintings. He had no job and
Suzanne had been paying for their dates. On top of everything else he
had flunked a couple of his classes at the university and was
considering taking classes at the community college. Since he no longer
was going to be student at the university, he would have to move
off-campus and really had nowhere to go.
Suzanne snapped when he told her he wanted to keep his stuff in her room
and sleep there until he came up with something else. She was fully
aware he would not be able to come up with anything else, and probably
would want to stay indefinitely. Furthermore, by having a male stay in
her room, she would be risking getting kicked out of the dorm. The
answer was no. No stuff in my room, no sleeping in my room, no using my
meal card to eat in the cafeteria. Go find someone else to support you,
because I�ve had it. And by the way, you�d better change your major,
because you don�t know how to paint. What you call a painting is
something I could have done when I was in kinder garden.
Suzanne went home to her father�s house in an irritated mood. She made
the mistake of telling him and her step-mother about the final two weeks
of her semester. He promptly used the cheating accusation and her most
recent break-up to ridicule her, and heap his usual contempt on her life
and her efforts in college. Suzanne, still in a rotten mood from the
events over the past two weeks, simply left the house without saying
anything and returned to the university.
Cecilia was curious about the odious behavior from her friend�s father
and why she put up with it.
�You know, you take a lot of shit from your dad, and I don�t get it. I�m
tellin� you, if I were you, I would�ve told him to go fuck himself a
long time ago. There�s no way I�d put up with what you�re puttin� up
with. So, how come you�re doin� it? How come you�re takin� his shit?�
�I don�t know, Cecilia. I don�t know why I�m doing it. I�m always asking
myself the same thing, but I keep hoping that someday things might be
different. I keep hoping that he�ll change, I mean, go back to the way
he was when I was little, and we might be a family again�like before my
mom left.�
�It�s not gonna happen. You don�t have any family, �cause your dad�s
just a rotten person. You gotta deal with that. That�s your reality, and
you just gotta face it. That man�s no good, and you know he�s no good.
He doesn�t deserve you bein� nice to him.�
�I guess. I don�t know myself why I�m this way�why I can�t let go. Right
now I just can�t.�
Cecilia, upon realizing she wasn�t going to get Suzanne to change her
outlook on her relationship with her father, decided to change the
subject and work on improving her friend�s mood. She invited Suzanne
back to her room to listen to the latest CD sent to her by Kimberly Lee
and to look at the website draft she had prepared. Suzanne, who had more
of an eye for aesthetic appeal than did Cecilia, made several
suggestions to improve the over-all appearance of the webpages,
including a change in the color scheme. A few mouse clicks accomplished
those changes, and yes, the webpages did indeed look better with the new
colors.
Suzanne was in a quiet mood and ready to listen to Cecilia�s adventures
with the Danubians. She was impressed that Cecilia actually had sat for
dinner with the country�s Prime Minister and made a suggestion that
perhaps salvaged an international treaty. Cecilia talked at length about
the final week of the semester on her floor and her efforts to get her
residents to pass their classes. While they were talking Cecilia burned
an extra CD for Suzanne, figuring that her advice on the webpage more
than made up for the fact she was giving a friend the band�s latest
music for free.
Suzanne invited Cecilia back to her room to look over the photos she had
taken in the art department studio earlier in the semester. It was
strange to see her own body, completely stripped in a totally empty
setting, her brown skin sharply contrasting with the white backdrop. She
was surprised at the pictures� quality, and also at how attractive her
own body appeared in the pictures.
�Dang�I look good in these. They�re really great.�
Suzanne handed over a folder containing copies of the entire photo
shoot. It occurred to Cecilia that she now had at least one decent
Christmas gift she could give to Jason; she could have a couple of the
pictures framed and present them when he came back from Wisconsin.
The photographer then announced that five of the photos would be
included a city-wide exhibit of figure photography in January. That news
both frightened and excited Cecilia, the knowledge that hundreds of
photography fans would be studying her figure in detail. However,
whatever reservations she might have had about being placed so
prominently on display she would have to keep to herself, because she
had signed a model release.
Cecilia looked over some of Suzanne�s other work, which included a black
football player who had posed nude in different spots around the
university gym and stadium, various models posing outdoors in parks and
forests, and a lot of shots of the Tri-Alpha 10-K race. The strangest
photo shoot of the semester was of an older professor posing in his
office. The man was in his 60�s and there was absolutely nothing
attractive about his body, but somehow Suzanne had managed to make the
subject intensely erotic.
�I like this set, and I really don�t know why. Anyhow, he�s retiring in
May, and he�s going to let me do an art show with this project once he�s
safely out of the university. It�s sort of funny, when you think about
it. I�ve got my statement I want to make with these pictures, but he has
one as well, which is different from mine. He told me it�s going to be
his way of saying goodbye to his life as a scholar.�
Looking at her friend�s work had intensely aroused Cecilia. In spite of
her nervousness about her images being presented in the art show in
January, she secretly found herself wishing she could do another photo
shoot. The photographer, who was very good at discerning the thoughts of
her subjects, picked up on that immediately.
�I got a question for you. You say there�s no one else in Huntington
Hall except you?�
�Yeah, it�s gonna be just me �till after New Year�s. Sometimes the
janitor or the repair guy shows up and I gotta let �em in, but that�s
always in the morning and just for a couple of hours. If they ain�t
around I always keep all the doors in the building locked.�
�You know, I was thinking about something. If you got that whole
building to yourself, we could take advantage of that to do some more
photo shoots over the next couple of days. I�d have plenty of time to
set up and get the lighting right. If you�re up for it, I think we could
get some really great pictures, even better than the ones from the
studio.�
Cecilia�s heart jumped. She was indeed up for another photo shoot. After
nearly two weeks of being without Jason, she was full of pent-up
sexuality. A lengthy picture-taking session in Huntington Hall would be
perfect way to release her emotions.
As it got dark outside, Suzanne and Cecilia loaded themselves with her
photography supplies and made the trek from Suzanne�s dorm back to
Huntington Hall. They had to make two trips, because Suzanne wanted to
bring all of her lighting. Cecilia then offered to open a vacant room to
her friend and get her a set of linens, so she would not have to return
to her room at night. The offer also gave Suzanne a place to keep her
equipment, which she gladly accepted. She added a toothbrush, a bottle
of shampoo, and comb to her camera bag and with that the two women
trudged through the snow to get back to Huntington Hall.
----------
Suzanne�s plans turned out to be ambitious. She had a unique
opportunity to take advantage of having an entire building available for
nearly a week to do with as she saw fit. The first thing she did was
tour all of Huntington Hall, including the rooftop and basement. She
turned on and off all the lights, took measurements, looked out the
windows, and explored the most secret areas of the dorm. She seemed
particularly fascinated with a section of the basement, carefully
looking at the pipes and several concrete pillars as she pondered the
underground area.
Suzanne let her model know that she planned to spend several days taking
pictures and she wanted the project to be a serious artistic
undertaking. She also let Cecilia know that while shooting, she would be
in control, period. If Cecilia wanted the project to be successful, she
had to follow the photographer�s commands with no questions.
�We�re going to be doing some experimental stuff, and I�ll be asking you
to do some things that might make you nervous. But if you get nervous,
that�s fine, that�s going to be what I want. The photos I�m planning are
not just going to be about your body in this dorm, but also your
emotions.�
She wondered what on earth Suzanne meant by that, but she still wanted
to go through with the photo shoot. She was determined to see how far
her friend could push her and what the artistic results would be. She
knew that Suzanne�s personality completely changed when she was taking
pictures; that she became very demanding of anyone modeling for her.
When Suzanne was behind the camera, she was the boss, period. She
expected her model to follow her commands and put forth every bit of
effort to make each frame work. It was Suzanne�s job to take care of the
lighting, camera angles, camera settings, and picture developing, but it
was the model�s responsibility to put forth the effort and emotion
needed to provide acceptable subject matter.
Suzanne was aware that over the past couple of weeks Cecilia had not
worn any clothes while alone in the building. As soon as she was settled
in her room she directed her model to undress. Cecilia returned to her
room and pulled off her clothes. Her heart pounding, she stepped back
into the hallway as Suzanne's camera flashed at her figure. Her friend
now was in complete charge of her life, and would remain so until the
photography session ended. The very first thing she told Cecilia was
that would not be allowed to get dressed again until the photo session
was over.
�I want to get as many good shots of you as I can, and I don�t want
pressure marks from your clothes to show up in the images. Also, I want
you to get used to running around in the nude, so it'll be something you
won't be worrying about later on. This photo session is going to be all
about you, not about what you�re wearing.�
Suzanne began by directing her model to take whatever dirty clothing she
had downstairs to the laundry room. Cecilia did not have much that she
needed to wash, but she obeyed and walked down the stairs with a basket
as Suzanne�s camera clicked behind her. There were more pictures taken
in the laundry room, pictures of Cecilia walking up and down the stairs,
pictures of her moving around in the hallway, and pictures of her
ironing and putting everything away.
Suzanne spent Christmas Eve and the following day taking pictures
non-stop of her model doing every daily activity imaginable, all of it
in the nude. Cecilia was on the move the entire day doing housework,
even though cleaning Huntington Hall was not her responsibility. She was
ordered to clean a bathroom, mop the entire cafeteria floor, cook a
meal, wash dishes, run a vacuum cleaner in the entire second floor
hallway, and straighten the furniture in all the building�s common
areas. Suzanne ordered her to tidy up the building�s reception desk and
then sit down and do some work at the computer. She ordered her to go
into the director�s office and do some work at his desk. Then she
ordered Cecilia to go upstairs, put on her tennis shoes, and use the
treadmill.
�You�ll need to put some effort into your running. I want you sweating
before you're done.�
Cecilia ran a full three miles, non-stop at a fast setting before
Suzanne let her stop. She was covered in persperation and gasping for
breath when Suzanne finally turned down the setting and let her slow to
a walk to cool down. As the sweat continued trickling down her body,
Suzanne took more pictures of her model walking: from the front, from
the back, and from each side. There were pictures of her stretching, and
then pictures of her taking a shower with the shower curtain open.
Because water had spilled on the bathroom floor, Cecilia had to get on
her hands and knees and clean it up with a towel while the photographer
photographed her. The photographer directed to turn her bottom towards
the camera and spread her knees and arch her back while she was wiping
the floor, to expose herself as much as possible. She felt the
bathroom's cool air blowing against her bottom and vulva as the camera
flashed behind her.
As Christmas Day progressed, Suzanne�s pictures became more intimate and
the camera more invasive. Cecilia no longer noticed, however. She was
tired from all of the housework and by the end of the day had totally
forgotten that she had spent the last 24 hours in the nude in front of
her friend. She got on her computer and began reading and sending
e-mails. She was able to completely ignore Suzanne and follow her normal
routine. Being ignored was exactly what Suzanne had in mind, because she
wanted the pictures to be natural.
When it was time for Cecilia to go to bed, Suzanne continued documenting
her friend�s life. Cecilia took the bedspread off her bed and turned up
the heat, so that she could sleep with no covers and be photographed
throughout the night as she moved about on the bed. Suzanne dimmed the
lights, adjusted her camera lens to maximize the limited lighting, and
patiently watched her model while she slept.
About three in the morning Cecilia woke up and heard the quiet clicks of
Suzanne�s camera. Half asleep, she walked down the hallway and into the
bathroom to pee, with Suzanne following her. When she returned to her
room, she still was half asleep but felt very aroused. Her sexuality
surfaced, partly from missing Jason, and partly from the feeling of
being submitting to Suzanne and being documented in every intimate
detail. Ignoring the fact her actions were being captured on film, she
began caressing herself, gently running her fingertips over her stomach
and breasts. Slowly her fingers moved to her thighs, then ever closer to
her clitoris. She spread her legs and gently massaged her labia and
touched her vagina. She rolled over and ran her hands over her bottom,
gently caressing her backside as she rubbed her front over the bed. She
then flipped on her back to continue teasing herself up front. Suzanne
very quietly moved about the bed with her camera, capturing everything
in minute detail. Cecilia�s expression changed as she moved closer and
closer to climaxing. She became wet and began sweating as she teased and
tormented herself, striving, as always, to delay the orgasm as long as
possible.
Suzanne took numerous pictures, quickly using up her film and
desperately swapping used rolls of pictures for unused ones. This was
her chance to document a real orgasm. Sure�there were plenty of pictures
of women pretending to have orgasms, plenty of pictures that looked as
fake as a three-dollar bill. This was different. This was the real
thing, and when the pictures were developed it would be obvious that it
was genuine, a real woman truly enjoying her own body.
After Cecilia went back to sleep, Suzanne returned to her borrowed room
to restock her film and make sure the most recent pictures were safely
stored until they could be developed. She then took off her own clothes
and slept for a couple of hours, but woke up at daybreak and got dressed
to make sure she was in Cecilia�s room when she got up.
By the middle of the day after Christmas Suzanne had documented 36 hours
of Cecilia doing every imaginable daily activity in the nude. She wanted
to change her focus and take pictures of her model actually posing
instead of just moving about naturally. There was no question that
Cecilia felt perfectly comfortable with posing, so it was time to move
on to more ambitious pictures.
As she followed the photographer's lead, Cecilia�s intense sexuality
fascinated Suzanne. She decided to bring that out as much as possible
throughout the second full day of shooting. Her ultimate plan was to
seduce her friend. She did not want to make physical love to her, but
instead have her subject to make love to the camera. Slowly she
manipulated Cecilia�s emotions as she gradually persuaded her to assume
ever more revealing and submissive postures. Cecilia found herself under
a spell of her own making, desperately wanting to surrender herself and
be taken. She was wet and her eyes were glistening with sexual desire.
For the entire afternoon her soul belonged to the photographer and her
camera.
Finally, at about 10:00 pm, Suzanne could tell that intense exhaustion
was overtaking her model�s intense arousal. She allowed Cecilia to clean
up and get back on her bed for some sleep. As before, that second night
she allowed her model no bed covers and absolutely no privacy. Cecilia
ended the day desperate to relieve her burning desires. With her
friend�s camera quietly clicking nearby, she masturbated uncontrollably
for a very long time before finally climaxing and falling asleep.
At the end of the second full day of shooting, Suzanne was exhausted
herself, but was exhilarated at the total success of the project so far.
She wanted more. She knew that the next day she could get even better
pictures out of her friend if she handled her correctly. She looked
about the room to see what might truly arouse Cecilia, but at the same
time scare her and test her emotional limits.
She noticed the drawing of Jason, bent over, with belt marks covering
his exposed backside. She peeked in the closet, and saw two very heavy
old belts hanging just inside the door. It was obvious that Cecilia
never wore those belts, because they were men�s belts; too big, too
weathered, and too thick to be worn by a young woman. Behind the belts
was hanging a small black leather paddle. Hmm�so that�s what Cecilia�s
into�OK, that�s what I�ll get her with tomorrow�
Suzanne returned to the basement, where she would finalize the most
important episode of the shared experience with her model. There was a
thick cement pillar standing in the middle of the room. By sheer luck,
it had several u-shaped pieces of metal imbedded in the concrete that
must have been left over from when the building was being constructed.
She looked at the concrete support beams above her head. There were
additional u-shaped pieces of metal embedded in the beams. That was
perfect. The next day she would used the pillar and support beams to tie
Cecilia in different poses and photograph her in bondage. She needed
some rope, which she knew would be somewhere in the building, because it
was needed to hang banners. Finally she found what she was looking for,
several long pieces of soft nylon rope rolled up in a box with some old
cloth signs. She put one piece in her pocket and laid out the others
near the pillar. Then she went upstairs to get her lighting. Once the
lighting was set up and tested, the basement was ready.
----------
The next day Cecilia slept until late in the morning. The room was
illuminated by the snowy-white weather outside, which allowed the
photographer to get some very good pictures of her model sleeping. For a
while Suzanne simply sat next to the bed, admiring the petite dark
figure lying face down on the mattress. Her legs were spread slightly
and her bottom was completely relaxed, leaving her bottom-hole and vulva
exposed to the well-lit room and Suzanne�s camera. She took a few
close-up shots of the intimate dark area between her model�s soft brown
bottom-cheeks. She was surprised when she found herself tempted to reach
out and gently caress that tender spot. She resisted that urge,
angry at herself for having sexual feelings towards her sleeping friend.
Cecilia finally woke up and looked into the camera with eyes heavy from
sleep. She went to the bathroom and took a brief shower, once again
leaving the shower curtain open so Suzanne could photograph her. She
casually shaved her armpits and vulva as the camera continued capturing
her every move. After drying off, once again she had to get on her hands
and knees to wipe up the water with her bottom turned up, spread, and
facing the camera.
The day continued in the cafeteria kitchen. Suzanne photographed Cecilia
cooking, eating, drinking, cleaning the dishes, and wiping down the
countertops. The two women then sat together at a table and casually
talked about what Suzanne had done so far and what she hoped to
accomplish with the project. The photographer announced that if the
day�s shooting went well, probably she�d wrap up later in the day and
take her equipment back to her dorm.
She let Cecilia know that the past three days had been absolutely the
best photo session she ever had with a female model, professional or
amateur. However, the only reward Cecilia could expect for her efforts
so far was even harder work before the project could be wrapped up.
Suzanne wanted a climax to the photo session, an ultimate test of her
model�s desire to satisfy her artistic instincts. Cecilia shifted
nervously, because she knew that Suzanne was about to intensify the
demands she was making of her model.
Suzanne pulled a piece of rope out of her pocket, as her companion's
eyes opened wide with surprise and anxiety.
�Put your hands behind you, please.�
Cecilia stood up and turned her back to Suzanne, obediently placing her
hands in position so the photographer could tie them. She felt her
wrists being firmly wrapped and immobilized behind her back. Suzanne
finished off with a very firm knot, and then tapped her model�s shoulder
to direct her towards the door. As Cecilia moved away, Suzanne snapped
several photos of her walking with her hands behind her back.
Cecilia felt totally helpless and much more naked, with her front
unprotected and inaccessible to her hands. Suzanne made her do a
complete walk around the building, while she took pictures from all
sides and angles. Finally they returned to Cecilia�s room. Suzanne
directed her subject to kneel, took a couple more pictures, and then
asked her to describe what was in her closet. Cecilia looked up,
breathing roughly, as she confessed that she was keeping two thick belts
and a leather paddle. She explained what the items were used for while
Suzanne took them out and tapped them in her hand.
She took several photos of Cecilia�s very nervous expression and
uncomfortable posture. She then posed a question.
�Have you ever had these used on you?�
�No, Suzanne. I�ve always used �em on Jason. I�I�ve never had �em used
on me.�
�That's being hypocritical. We need to fix that. Stand up, �cause I�m
going to take you downstairs.�
They left, Cecilia�s hands still tied and Suzanne carrying the belts and
paddle. The RA�s heart pounded when she saw the set-up in the basement.
The lights, the tri-pods, and the rope clearly indicated what Suzanne
had in mind. She was scared, but had been well-aware that her companion
had been planning a dramatic conclusion to the project. She walked up to
the pillar, and without saying anything, silently awaited the next
command.
For the next hour Suzanne experimented by tying her model to the pillar
in different positions and photographing her. She was not particularly
interested in punishing Cecilia, but she did expect the model to keep a
scared, nervous look in her face. Whenever her expression relaxed too
much, Suzanne responded by giving her a couple of sharp smacks with the
paddle.
The photographer paused to secure the model�s hands to the cement
support beam above her head. She picked up the belt, doubled it and
slapped it in her hand. Cecilia watched her in terror, wondering how
much further this was going to go. Suzanne stepped in front of her.
�Cecilia, I want to let you know I appreciate this, I really appreciate
what you�re doing for me. You�ve already done your part as a model, and
whether or not we go any further is up to you. What I�d like is make you
cry, and then get some shots of you with tears running down your face. I
know that�s a lot to ask. I promise I won�t get mad if you want to end
things now, but I think we could get some really powerful pictures if
you let me continue. It�s your choice.�
Cecilia struggled to catch her breath. She was trembling, her bare
breasts quivering slightly and nervous sweat trickling down her body.
But there was no doubt in her mind what needed to happen. She needed to
do this project right, do it the way Suzanne wanted, and push her own
limits. They would continue. If they didn�t, she would always wonder�
�It�it�s OK�Suzanne�you can go on. It�s alright.�
�You sure?�
Cecilia nodded. She closed her eyes and shifted her bottom out slightly
to receive the first blow. She heard the camera click and then there was
a pause�
CRACK! Suzanne landed a sharp swat across the middle of Cecilia�s
bottom. She gasped and twisted slightly as tears welled up in her eyes.
She heard the camera click and then struggled to position herself to
receive the second swat. There was a long pause, followed by a sharp
CRACK! As the pain mounted from the first two swats, Suzanne carefully
and viciously struck a third time with yet another sharp CRACK!
Tears started flowing down Cecilia�s cheeks. In rapid succession Suzanne
laid two additional welts across Cecilia�s backside, as her victim bit
her lip and the tears started flowing in earnest.
�Open your eyes and look at me please.�
Cecilia looked into Suzanne�s camera, as the photographer captured a
powerful image of her tear-stained face.
�You OK?�
Cecilia nodded and stuck out her bottom for the punishment to continue.
CRACK! Suzanne struck hard, overlapping an earlier stroke and forcing
her victim to squeal in pain. However, as soon as she could control her
squirming, Cecilia positioned herself for yet another sharp swat.
Suzanne ended up only hitting Cecilia a total of 10 times. By the tenth
swat Cecilia was crying nicely and Suzanne felt no need to
continue. She finished out a roll of film, set down the camera, and got
ready to untie Cecilia and release her.
However, the restrained young woman had become consumed with sexual
desire. She needed not to be released, but to be touched, to be
satisfied, and to be fulfilled. As Suzanne reached up to untie the rope,
Cecilia jerked her hands away. Her eyes full of erotic desperation, she
gasped:
�Touch me! I�m gonna go crazy if you don�t touch me! You gotta...�
�Cecilia, I never do that with my models. I can�t because it�s not
professional.�
�Look, I don�t wanna hear that shit! That ain�t fair! I did everything
you wanted! Now it�s your turn to do what I want! You can�t leave me
like this!�
Cecilia�s face was full of absolute desperation, an uncontrolled sexual
fury. No, Suzanne couldn�t leave her in this condition. She had just
given her the best photo shoot of her life and she had no right to just
walk away leaving her friend�s sexual desires unfulfilled.
Suzanne realized something else. She was actually attracted to Cecilia.
It would be the only time in her life she ever would find another woman
sexually desirable, but Cecilia�s beautiful body, stretched and
helplessly immobilized under the support beam, truly was a tempting
sight.
�I�ll do what you want, but�don�t you want me to release you?�
�No! I don�t wanna be released!�
Suzanne took a deep breath and began gently running her fingertips over
Cecilia�s breasts. She gently kissed each nipple as Cecilia gasped from
arousal. She gently cupped Cecilia�s face in her hands and gave her a
lingering kiss. She gently explored her vulva with her fingertips,
teasing her labia and gently brushing her clitoris. Cecilia was very,
very wet.
Suzanne kissed her friend�s breasts and slowly worked her way down her
stomach. Cecilia�s body was covered with sweat, the salty taste of which
filled her mouth. Suzanne moved down to her friend's cleanly shaven
crotch. She gently touched and kissed her entire vulva, intimately
exploring another woman for the first time in her life.
Cecilia gasped and thrust herself forward as Suzanne gently sought out
her friend's clitoris with her tongue. She would have thought that
tasting another woman's sexual arousal would be disgusting, but in the
case with Cecilia, the opposite was true. She found the taste of
Cecilia�s arousal fascinating. She frequently had performed oral sex on
two of her boyfriends and thus was used to it, but to do it to Cecilia
was a new and intriguing experience.
By now Suzanne was becoming aroused as well. After having studied and
photographed her model in minute detail over the past three days, she
was passionately attracted to her. She stood up and pulled off her
shirt. She embraced Cecilia, gently rubbing their breasts together. She
took Cecilia's head in her hands and fervently kissed her as she pulled
against the ropes.
Now that she was aroused herself, Suzanne wanted to feel Cecilia�s hands
on her body. She reached up and struggled with the rope, finally
managing to free her captive�s hands. Cecilia embraced Suzanne and
desperately kissed her neck. She pushed her friend against the cement
pillar, licked her breasts, and then cupped her breasts in her hands
while she sought out Suzanne�s mouth with her own.
With a single movement Cecilia jerked Suzanne�s skirt to her ankles. For
some reason she was thrilled to see that her friend was not wearing
underwear. Suzanne�s pale skin and voluptuous thighs beckoned. She ran
her hand between her friend�s thick legs, relishing the feel of the soft
warm flesh. Her hand paused over her friend�s vulva, her fingers buried
in her soft pubic hair. She paused to study Suzanne�s aroused, but very
nervous expression.
�We gotta get upstairs�We can�t be doing this in the basement.�
Naked, the two women scrambled up two flights of stairs. They stopped
right outside the RA�s room when Cecilia pinned Suzanne to the wall and
began passionately kissing her. She explored her friend�s body with her
free hand and once again buried her face in her neck.
Although in stature she was by far the smaller of the two women, it was
Cecilia who took control of their love-making. She pushed Suzanne onto
the bed and quickly plunged her face between her legs. She was
determined to make Suzanne climax, after which she would expect Suzanne
to return the favor.
Cecilia took much longer to get an orgasm out of Suzanne than she had
anticipated. She knew what she liked for herself and how to get Jason to
satisfy her, but this was the first time in her life she had ever been
with another woman. She was inexperienced, and on top of everything else
her lover was extremely nervous. However, finally she did find the right
combination of teasing, licking, biting, and kissing to get the coveted
wetness and some high pitched gasps from her companion.
Once Suzanne climaxed Cecilia climbed on top and pinned her hands to the
mattress. Cecilia forced her lover to taste the juices of her own
arousal as she pushed her tongue into past her teeth and deep into her
mouth. With mounting concern Suzanne realized that her friend�s sexual
arousal had completely taken control of her and that she seemed not to
be thinking straight.
Cecilia moved over Suzanne�s body, kissing and grabbing her thighs and
breasts, running her hands over her stomach and returning to kissing her
clitoris. The photographer was becoming more and more frightened as her
sex-starved partner continued to dominate her with her unspoken demands.
Finally Suzanne tried to regain control of the love-making by pushing
Cecilia on her back and slipping her face between the Dominican�s legs.
Seeing and touching her friend�s dark vagina and freshly-shaven crotch
re-lit Suzanne�s own arousal, but more than anything else she wanted to
make Cecilia climax and then try to get her to calm down. She knew that
some of her experience performing oral sex on her boyfriends could be
applied to her session with Cecilia. Very slowly and sensuously she
began kissing and licking the most intimate parts of her companion.
Cecilia climaxed immediately. She moaned loudly and moved
desperately on the bed, saturating the sheets with her sweat. Then she
quieted down and Suzanne thought she was finished. She lifted her head,
only to have Cecilia grab her hair and jerk her face back down.
�M�s�quiero m�s�quiero m�s��
Suzanne�s heart was pounding and she was more afraid than ever. Her
friend was so out of control that she even had forgotten which language
she needed to speak. Still, she felt that she owed it to Cecilia to
satisfy her, so once again she explored the dark flesh surrounding her
clitoris with her fingertips and tongue. Suzanne was becoming tired from
all of her efforts and wondered how on earth Cecilia could be so
demanding and not be worn out. Had she known about Jason�s nightly duty
in the RA�s room, she would have understood that, when it came to being
sexually satisfied, her friend had become spoiled.
Finally Cecilia climaxed enough to let her companion know that she was
satisfied. The muscles in Suzanne�s face were stiff and her entire mouth
was sore from her efforts. The rest of her body was tired as well,
partly from the strange orgasm she had enjoyed, but mostly from the
extended effort to fulfill her friend�s insatiable demand for sexual
fulfillment.
The spell lifted. Cecilia sat up on the bed with a bewildered
expression, as though she had just woken up from a very strange dream.
She glanced over at her naked friend to verify that, yes indeed she had
just had sex with Suzanne. She had no idea what to say or how to react.
For a long time the two women sat quietly, each trying to think of
something to say to the other. They both would remember the incident as
one of the most bizarre events in their lives, given that neither
Cecilia nor Suzanne was gay. How on earth could the two women, each of
whom considered the other a close friend, have ended up doing such a
thing as making love?
At first they both faced guilt over what had just happened. Cecilia�s
guilt was obvious enough: she had cheated on Jason by seducing her
friend. Suzanne felt just as bad, because she betrayed ethics of her
profession by having sex with a model. The women�s self-confidence was
shaken by the realization that their physical urges were capable
of overwhelming their personal beliefs. That was especially true for
Cecilia. She had just learned that she literally could not control
herself if she was aroused.
Suzanne sat back and looked at her friend. She was a very open-minded
person, so the thought of having had sex with Cecilia did not bother her
as much as the way it had happened. She blamed herself for having
seduced Cecilia to make the photo shoot successful, pushing her for
three days to explore her sexual urges and document them on film. There
was no question that she was exploiting her subject�s emotions, but she
had no choice if she wanted to make pictures with any artistic merit.
She saw the fierce arousal as it took control of Cecilia�s soul, but
pushed ahead because she was focused on getting the pictures she wanted.
Finally, after three days, her friend snapped. Well, now Suzanne had the
pictures, but they might well have cost her a friendship.
Cecilia was absolutely scared. She was terrified of her seemingly
uncontrollable urges. She realized she was going nuts without Jason. All
she could think about was her desperate need for sex. It had gotten so
bad that she practically assaulted her closest female friend. She
wondered how on earth the friendship could survive such a bizarre
afternoon.
Finally it was Suzanne who broke the silence.
�Are you OK?�
�I�I don�t know�I don�t know if I�m OK. To be honest, what just
happened�it kinda scared me.�
�You didn�t enjoy it?�
�Oh yeah, I enjoyed it. I enjoyed it a lot. But it wasn�t�I mean...I
ain�t that way, or�I didn�t think I was that way. But I don�t know, with
Jason gone, it�s like I�m not the same person, I mean, all I�m thinkin�
about now is sex. Without Jason�all I can think about is sex.�
Suzanne saw the last comment as a chance to move beyond the sexual
encounter and perhaps get Cecilia to open up a bit more about her own
life. She realized that her friend�s defenses were down and that she
might be willing to share some details about her life and about her
relationship with Jason in particular. So, for the next couple of hours
she got Cecilia talk about how she saw Jason as a partner and why she
treated him the way she did, what concerns she had for his future. She
moved to talking about her own life and her efforts to take full
advantage of the scholarship to make her final escape from the world in
which she grew up. When Cecilia talked about Jason�s father, Suzanne
reflected that Mr. Schmidt seemed very similar in personality to her own
father.
Suzanne talked shared some details about her own life, and her
frustration over her persistently bad luck with boyfriends. She always
seemed to attract guys who were looking for someone to support them,
constantly drawing weak individuals who couldn�t fend for themselves.
Cecilia pointed out that Suzanne always dated guys within the art
department, and perhaps that was her problem. Suzanne pondered that
thought, but it seemed, as was the case in the relationship with her
father, she lacked the imagination to really change how she approached
choosing potential partners. She couldn�t picture dating someone without
an artistic background.
The conversation then shifted back to Cecilia�s deepest fear, losing
control over her own life. She haltingly talked about her early
relationship with Vicente, telling Suzanne the full story, only leaving
out the detail about the abortion. She then moved forward, explaining
why she was so angry with herself.
�I keep tellin� myself that I ain�t never gonna let no one take over my
life again, not after Vicente kept hittin� me in the face. But then, how
can I even think about that when I ain�t even got control over my own
body? It�s like, there�s somethin� inside me that I can�t control, and
it really scares me. What�happened a couple of minutes ago�wasn�t the
first time, you know�when I wasn�t thinking about what I was doin�. It�s
happened before. I hate that part of me, �cause I know it�s gonna fuck
up my life someday.�
�Look. You can�t be so hard on yourself. I was in on it too, just as
much as you were. I didn�t exactly push you away, you know. As I said,
things just happen, and you learn from them. Anyhow, at least now you
know yourself a bit better.�
Cecilia did not respond, so Suzanne continued: �Maybe, if you�like�if
you, as you say, lose control over yourself�don�t you think it was
better that it happened with me, instead of someone else? Would you
really have wanted to be stressed out about having had sex with someone
you couldn�t trust, and then be wondering how it was going to come back
and hurt you later on?�
�I �spose not, but I�m still not happy it happened with you, �cause, I
don�t know, I just wouldn�t have wanted to mess things up between us. I
would�ve rather it�d been with someone I don�t care about�and��
�No, that wouldn�t have been better. I can tell you from my own
experiences that wouldn�t have been better�and as far as I�m concerned,
nothing got messed up. I still want us to be friends. That�d be very
important to me, that we don�t lose our friendship.�
�You really think after�?�
�Can you tell me if there was anything wrong with what we did? Did we
hurt anyone? No. All we did was share an experience. That�s all that
happened between us. We�re both lonely and stressed out, and the result
was that we shared an experience. It�s nothing to feel bad about.�
Cecilia felt hugely relieved at Suzanne�s common-sense approach to their
sexual adventure. Suzanne�s own difficult past allowed her to put at
least some things into proper perspective. While Cecilia otherwise might
have tormented herself with guilt and anger, Suzanne was able to make
her see the sexual encounter for what it was, an experience in life that
she had shared with a friend.
----------
It was dark outside by the time Cecilia and Suzanne finally got off the
bed and made their way to the bathroom to get cleaned up. As she admired
Suzanne�s shapely body, a figure so voluptuous and so different from her
own, an idea took hold in her mind. She decided that she wanted to
document her appreciation of her friend�s body on film. As they dried
off, she approached Suzanne with her thoughts.
�You know, I was wonderin�, if maybe I could borrow your camera and your
lighting, and we could change places. Me takin� the pictures and you
bein� the model. It�s somethin� I�d like to try.�
It was a request that Suzanne had not expected. She did not have a good
opinion of her own body, but she felt that it was only fair that after
three days of modeling, Cecilia should have the opportunity to
experiment being on the other side of the camera. Suzanne agreed and
helped Cecilia set up the lighting in the commons area. She gave an
impromptu lesson on adjusting the settings of the two cameras and how to
use the lights, and then quietly took her position in front of her own
lens.
Cecilia spent the next two hours photographing Suzanne. She was
fascinated at the thought of changing places with the photographer, and
only stopped when she used up the last roll of film.
