Page 83 of Loving Lizzy

The women filed into the building. Kassie and Catherine led the way to the kitchen. Ty catered food and the men placed everything in the oven and refrigerator.

Claiming their age as a factor, Maddie, Edie, and Carol refused to attend. They sent gifts. Victoria, on the other hand, helped with the planning and promised a few surprises of her own.

“The women poured wine and sparkling cider, piled plates full of food and made their way to the pool area. A cozy lounge set, arranged in a circle, sat in the corner big enough for them to sit and visit one another. Bryanna handed a blanket to Lizzy before taking a seat.

“I asked all of you to fill out advice for Samantha as she recommits to Whiskey. Let’s read the cards,” Kassie told the group as she picked up the items.

Samantha reached into the basket and pulled out the first card. “Always remember the reasons you love him when he leaves the toilet seat up and experiences sudden memory loss when it comes to emptying the dishwasher,” Samantha laughed as she read it.

Kassie handed her a second card, “When you’re in a storm remember he’s the lighthouse to lead you home.” Everyone awed and glanced toward Lizzy who smiled.

Samantha dug her hand in and pulled out the third. “Keep the sex interesting and you’ll never have to worry about the other stuff.”

All the heads turned to Victoria. “What? Were we supposed to lie?”

Kassie shook her head as she grinned, “Pick another one.”

Samantha drew the next card, “Blow jobs go a long way when you find yourself in trouble.”

Kassie set the basket down and her eyes narrowed in Victoria’s direction.

“Did you stack the basket with marital advice?”

“You said a fun bachelorette party. You said nothing about a tea party with cozy anecdotes,” Victoria defended herself.

“What did you have in mind?” Catherine asked, intrigued.

“We’re all married here, or close to it. Let’s have some fun.” Victoria’s grin grew wider as she disappeared around the corner.

Kassie drew a deep breath and closed her eyes. Catherine practically bounced in anticipation. Lizzy settled in for the show, knowing if Victoria was involved, it meant something outrageous. Bryanna chugged back the glass of wine and went in for a second glass. She grabbed Kassie’s as she walked by.

Kassie leaned in and faced the women, “Whatever she comes up with, stays here.”

The woman solemnly nodded, sat back, and waited.

CHAPTER FORTY THREE

Victoria carried in big shopping bags with each of the women’s names on them. She passed them out and ordered, “The men promised to stay off the premises for this evening. Go to the bunks and change into the outfits in your bag and bring out the boxes at the bottom, no peeking.”

The women scurried to the opposite hall. A few minutes later laughter and shrieks followed as the women appeared in the pool room. Kassie’s face resembled a beet as she walked out in a naughty nurse uniform with fishnet stockings and a nurse’s hat completing the ensemble. She carried the red box tied with a bow in her hand. Catherine followed with a flowing baby doll version covering her protruding tummy with a silk robe, furry slippers and a nurse’s cap. Bryanna’s costume consisted of black sheer see-through fabric like a swimsuit. Red feathers covered her private area and breasts. The back held the same feathers placed saucily around her butt, sticking up and around her waist playfully. A miniature, red baker’s hat sat on top of her head. Catherine whistled and clapped while Kassie tried pulling her tiny skirt which barely covered her ass, lower.

Victoria came out wearing a fitted leather bra studded with diamonds and a pair of boy shorts lined with the same design. Her thigh-high boots melded to her shapely legs. Her hat consisted of leather with a jaunty purple feather sticking out on top. They held their breath as Lizzy walked out. The older woman ordered a mastectomy bra sewn into her outfit. The green sheer fabric came up to her collar bone. Deep emerald straps fell down off the shoulders in a flirty manner. The silk material shimmered as it enhanced her waist and poofed out with black netting under the green silk barely covering her butt. A black hat attached to her hair with a green feather. Lizzy walked straight to Victoria. Everyone held their breath as Lizzy wrapped her arms around the older woman.

“Thank you for making me feel sexy,” Lizzy whispered.

She shook her head as she adjusted the feather. “I only reminded you it’s still there.”

Samantha walked down the hall holding her box and small bouquet of flowers. Her outfit was made for a bride. The fabric, sheer with seed pearls covering her breasts. The baby doll outfit’s luxurious dressing gown resembled a shortened wedding dress. A small hat with a veil fit on her head.

“It’s gorgeous, thank you,” Samantha gushed.

Bryanna downed another glass of wine and Kassie tilted her head back and finished off her second glass, asking for a third as Bryanna grabbed the bottle.

“Why did I get the shortest outfit here?” Kassie complained. “You can see my…my” Her face turned three shades of red.

“For exactly this reason. You cut a lovely figure with all the training, and you hide it with ‘mom’ clothes or scrubs. It’s time you learn how to seduce your husband to get your way.”

“I seduce Chase!” She stuck up for herself.
