“Can you stay for a while now?” I asked, silently kicking myself, as I wasn’t even set up yet.
“Don’t I need hair and makeup and maybe an outfit or three to look like a rock star?”
“That’s not how I work. You could get that from anyone. I want to photograph the real you. The man behind the rock star persona.”
Grayson laughed, but it sounded hollow. “You mistake me for my brother, Tanner. He has the rock star persona. I’m just me.”
“Well then, let’s capturejust youonto film.”
“Turn a bit more toward the light... That’s it... Can we try a couple with your shirt off? Addi wanted me to get some topless ones for the website.”
“It’s nice to know people appreciate us for our music! I bet no one will ask Frankie to take some topless shots.”
I couldn’t help but laugh at his fake outrage. He pulled his V-neck t-shirt over his head, and I placed the camera in front of my eyes, so I could take a better look at him without him noticing me staring because it was impossible to tear my eyes away.
His hairless chest, rigid abs that tensed when he moved, the dark line of hair that disappeared beneath his jeans. And his smile. God, that smile could melt ice. I snapped more shots until he announced he needed a drink. I watched as he turned, striding to the back of the room, confidence dripping from him. Grabbing a bottle of water, he twisted his head to the sunlight blazing in through the window, giving me his profile and the perfect view of his back. Wide shoulders, corded arms, a slim waist, and his toned muscular back, covered in what I could only describe as a work of art.
His large tattoo had been made to look like his back had cracked open and half of it had fallen away, leaving an entire galaxy showing underneath. Stars, planets, the cosmos hiding within him. I couldn’t help lifting my camera to take some candid shots. Feeling guilty about the intrusion, but knowing this was what their management was paying me to do. He must have heard the click of the camera, because he turned, frowning.
“Sorry, I will be doing that a lot. Just ignore me.” I looked down at the screen on my camera, trying to distract myself from staring at his beautiful body. “And we’re done.”
“Okay. That wasn’t too painful. Thanks, Ivy,” he said, looking relieved.
I moved towards my camera bag, flicking through the shots as I walked. Suddenly, he was in front of me. His firm chest was like a wall, body heat radiating from him like he was the sun itself.
“Can I see?” he asked, his voice soft.
“I need to edit them. Then you can.”
“Not even a little peak, Ivy? I’d love to see how you see me.”
“Okay, but don’t touch the camera. I'll be forced to hurt you.”
He held his hands up in surrender as I moved the camera to show him the screen.
His giant frame towered over my 5 foot 6 body, so he twisted, trying to see the small screen of the camera.
“I can’t see. Here, stand in front of me and I’ll peek over your shoulder. That way I can actually see the photos, short stack.”
“Rude.” I laughed as I moved to stand in front of him. “Can you see now, giant?”
His body pressed against mine, the heat of his bare chest burning through my thin blouse, searing my skin. He wrapped his hands around my hips, holding me in place. Leaning over my shoulder, his lips ghosted my ear, sending a shot of excitement between my legs, soaking my panties. He breathed in and out slowly before he spoke.
“Much better. Now show me what you took.”
I held my body rigid, trying to stop my hands from shaking and my heart racing. We stayed like that for a few minutes while I flicked through the images I’d taken of him.
“Wow, Ivy, these are… these are stunning.”
The warmth of his breath and the proximity of his body made it hard to concentrate on anything but the feel of him, so I had to focus to get my words to leave my mouth.
“Thanks, Grayson.”
“Ah, you’ve remembered my name. I feel honored.”
“Told you, it just takes me time to put a name to a face.”
“Right, I have to go deal with mylittle problemin the press. See you around soon, I hope.”
