THE EX IS BACK IN TOWN

COURTNEY

“What do you think?” I turn to face Merida, who’s sprawled out on my bed with her legs up in the air and her head tipped back in my direction. She rolls to her stomach and sits up, her head tilting one way, then the other. “Do you think it’s too much?” I ask, even knowing she has no idea what I’m saying. “It’s probably too much.”

I look down at myself, then turn to face the mirror. When Lucas told me last night that we would be spending the weekend together, I knew what that meant. I also know that I’ll be ready for everything that will hopefully happen between us. More than ready.

Okay, mostly ready and kind of freaking out.

When I went through my lingerie drawer this morning, I found I own not one sexy piece of underwear. I don’t even own a nightgown, let alone a sexy nightie. I tossed everything when my marriage came to an end. After Tom I got rid of all my stuff, not wanting the memories they held. I bought all new undergarments in soft cotton. Cotton is awesome, but it’s not sexy—or at least the stuff I have isn’t sexy. I need something to wear for Lucas that will hopefully say to him that I’m ready for the step we’re taking—and looking forward to it.

When I got to work this morning, I told Abby about my dilemma. She promised she knew just the place to take me.

I bite my lip and scan my reflection. The woman at the exclusive boutique in SoHo where Abby took me picked this bodysuit when Abby told her I was looking for something special to wear for my man. The idea of Lucas being “my man”—and the price of the scrap of fabric—just about gave me a heart attack, but the saleswoman told me to trust her.

Looking at myself, I have to admit that it was worth every penny. The silky-soft, see-through black mesh is beautiful, and the corded panels that dart out from under my breasts and end at the tops of my hips enhance my waist, making it look like I have an hourglass figure. There is lace both at the curve of my hips and over my breasts, and the underwire gives me amazing cleavage, which is even more dramatic because of the thin black straps that stretch over my shoulders. Turning, I look at my bottom and the almost nonexistent material covering it.

“It might be too much, but this is seriously sexy,” I whisper to myself.

I carefully slip out of the bodysuit and fold it up, then wrap myself in my robe. I go to my dresser and pull out all my old cotton panties and bras, replacing them with my new stuff.

My cell phone rings. I sigh when I see who’s calling.

“Hello?” I answer after putting my phone to my ear.

“Courtney!” Lorie’s voice greets me as I take a seat on the bed. Merida comes to sit on my lap.
