“Yes.”
“Hi, this is Jax Burke.” Fuck, he is probably calling to cancel for the shoot. My palms start sweating at just the thought.
“Hi, Jax, what’s up?” Please don’t say you can’t do it, please.
“I was going through the list of clothing for this weekend and wanted to make sure there wasn’t anything else that I needed to bring.” I breathe a sigh of relief.
“No, everything I sent you is all you need. If you have a favorite pair of shorts or boxers that you would like to bring, that is great too.” I hear a lighter and imagine him relaxing with a smoke. Damn, I haven’t had a cigarette since college and that was just when I was drunk. Maybe I should smoke to relax. What the hell is wrong with me? I’m not going to smoke. Focus on the phone call.
“Okay, I just wanted to make sure.” I smile even though it is the strangest conversation.
“Believe me, I’d let you know, but like I said, if you have anything you’d like to bring, I’m totally game for that also.”
“Sounds good. I wanted to let you know I went onto your website and checked out your photos. They are amazing. You are truly talented.” My heart starts racing. I haven’t felt that happen in a long time, but I think it is just because this amazing model is complimenting my work.
“Thank you, Jax, that means a lot to me. I am really looking forward to the shoot this weekend. I think it will be great.”
“I completely agree. I am thrilled to be a part of it.” I giggle a little because it’s almost like we are talking in circles here. I’m not exactly sure what the point of this conversation is, but I’ll be honest, it’s nice to talk to someone new.
“I have big plans so I hope everyone will be cool with all my ideas.” I hear someone talking to him, and I figure it must be Blake.
“Everyone will love it, I’m sure. Alright, Blake is finally ready to head out to the beach. Thank you for clearing that up for me. I’ll see you Saturday.” We hang up and I sit there perplexed. What the hell was the point of that? I guess the guy likes to make sure he can bring his choice of clothing too. I shrug my shoulders and start editing the rest of my pictures.
I can’t believe it is finally Saturday, the day of my big shoot. Brinley and I had dinner last night, and I was a bundle of nerves and excitement. I want everything to work out like I have pictured in my mind. It is four o’clock in the morning, and I’m showered, hair and makeup done, and sitting on the couch drinking a cup of coffee. I want to be on the beach in about a half hour since I told everyone to be there before sunrise. I finish off my coffee and go grab my gear. I have my camera and all my different lenses packed and ready to go. I carry it out, leaving it by the front door while I make myself a travel mug of coffee. Once I have that all done, I grab a hair tie because I know before long, I will want to keep my hair off my face. I look around to make sure I haven’t forgotten anything and head out to my Jeep Wrangler.
I get to the spot on the beach that I asked everyone to meet me and put everything down. I look around at how still everything is. The only sound is the waves washing up on shore, and the only light is the full moon. It is so peaceful. I grab my camera out of the bag and snap a few photos of the moon and the way it is reflecting off the water. “Have you been here long?” I turn to see Brinley walking up with another two of my models, Melanie and Danielle.
“No, I actually just got here myself.” They all give me a hug, and we talk for a few minutes about my plans.
/> “The party can start. I am here.” I smile at Max as he hugs me tight. “Jax and Blake will be right here. They stopped for coffee, and Joey, Dan, and Ben pulled in behind me. Who else is coming?”
“I have another new model, Lori, coming and Jack and Ruben.” I take a sip of my coffee as he nods his head. “Girls, you all know Max right?” They all come over and start talking. With every second that passes, I start getting nervous that everyone else is going to be late.
“Relax, everyone will be here, and it will be perfect.” I smile at Brinley and she gives me a wink. I hear laughing and see everyone except Jax and Blake walking over to us. I breathe a small sigh of relief. They are all talking, and I’m starting to wonder how the hell I’m going to talk over all of them. I clear my throat to get ready to yell and Max looks at me. He lets out a loud-ass whistle, and they all shut up. He smiles as he holds his arm out indicating I have their attention.
“Thank you all so much for being here. We are waiting on Jax and Blake, but I want to tell you the first shot since it is starting to get light out. I don’t want it perfect; I almost don’t want any organization. I want you all to get close to the water, but please don’t get wet yet. We have plenty of time for that later. I want you to all be goofing around, having fun. Guys, you can pick up a girl, girls you can piggyback on a guy, hell, guys you can piggyback, I don’t care. I want it to look fun and carefree.
“What if I am on Max’s back and Brinley is on my back?” I can’t help but throw my head back and laugh at Joey’s question. Yes, this is definitely going to be a fun day.
BLAKE AND I ARE RUSHING to get onto the beach. I told that asshole not to order breakfast, but he insisted, and now we are running late. This is not professional at all. “Blake, can you fucking keep up with me?” He is finishing off his breakfast sandwich and sipping his coffee. I roll my eyes and walk faster. I can see everyone on the beach listening to Kallie talk. Just as I am steps away from them, she throws her head back and starts laughing. I stop dead in my tracks. “No fucking way.” I just stand there looking at her. I can’t fucking believe it. Kallie is the mystical woman from in front of the club.
“You’re telling me to hurry, and now you are standing here staring like a fucking idiot. Let’s go.” I snap out of it and walk over. “Sorry we are late, Jax had to eat breakfast. He’s so high maintenance.” I roll my eyes as everyone laughs.
“You might be able to fool everyone else, Blake, but I sure as shit know who is the high maintenance one out of you two.” I nod my head at Max and walk over to introduce myself to Kallie. As soon as I am standing in front of her, I am fucking blown away. This woman is gorgeous, beyond gorgeous; she is stunning, flawless. She should be a model, not behind the lens. I smile at her and hold out my hand.
“Hi, Kallie, I’m Jax. It is so great to finally meet you. I’m sorry Blake and I are late. He’s a fucking idiot sometimes.” She places her tiny hand in mine, and I swear to you I feel as if her hand belongs there, which is ridiculous. I think I’m just so taken back that the girl I saw outside the club is standing in front of me.
“You’re not late. I only just told everyone what I had planned. Nothing I can’t catch you up with quickly. And it is a pleasure to finally meet you. I’m really looking forward to this shoot.” She gives me the most beautiful, genuine smile I’ve ever seen before turning to face everyone else. “Alright, I’m going to need you all down by the water because the sun will be rising shortly.” Everyone starts walking down, Blake included, but I stay behind still watching her. She bends over, with her hair curtaining her face, as she grabs her camera and a few different lenses. When she stands up, she jumps and I can’t help but chuckle.
“Shit, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to scare you. I thought you might need some help with your equipment, and maybe you could tell me what the plan is.” Once again, she gives me that smile as she places her camera around her neck.
“Thanks, but I’m used to lugging my camera and lenses everywhere, believe me. I’m sorry I didn’t explain what I have planned.” She waves her hand for me to follow, and like a fucking dog chasing after its master, I do it. She explains to me her vision, and I can tell just how passionate she is in the two minutes it takes us to reach everyone. I really fucking like that.
I join everyone in a whole pile of randomness, but in a weird way, it makes sense. We are all talking, joking, and laughing with each other for a few minutes. I turn to see what Kallie is doing, and she has gone from this smiling beautiful girl, to a serious yet confident photographer. I find it sexy as shit; it’s like she is in her own world, snapping photo after photo from all different angles. Never once telling us what to do, she just captures what is happening. I’m captivated by her. “Hey, Jax.” I turn to Blake and can’t help but laugh when I see Max on his back. Next thing I know, this beautiful woman runs at me, and I catch her, taking a few steps back to gain my balance. She laughs and I give her my half-smirk.
“Hey, Jax, I’m Brinley. I’ve seen your work. You are amazing.” Definitely, a compliment I won’t ever get tired of hearing, especially coming from her, considering I’ve seen some of Max’s shoots with her. She’s extremely talented herself.
“Nice to meet you, Brinley. I’ve seen yours too, stunning.” She winks at me, and I just happen to notice my hands are gripping her ass. This is when it gets hard, literally. I need to try to keep my mind focused on the shoot, not the beautiful woman I’m holding, touching, or kissing. Sometimes my cock has different plans, and that is a situation that I don’t like being in—on a shoot, that is.
