Excerpt
I looked out the peephole. It was Danielle, but I wasn’t sure until she said, “It’s me—Danielle.”
I hastily opened the door, grabbed Danielle’s arm and yanked her in. “Hurry, before somebody sees you.”
“Oww, Jan! What’s with you? You nearly jerked my arm out of its socket.”
“I didn’t want the neighbors to see my naked visitor, that’s what.”
“I’m not naked. This is my costume.” She turned around and asked, “What do you think?”
I had to admit, Danielle looked sexy as hell. She was wearing a cobalt blue thong, matching high heels and a couple dozen strategically placed peacock feathers, including a peacock mask and headdress, her long wavy red hair draping behind. She even had a miniature peacock tail. The rest of her costume was masterfully applied body paint in a peacock design. Danielle literally looked like a naked peacock woman.
Apparently, Danielle missed the look of shock on my face, because she turned another three-sixty and once again asked, “Well, what do you think?”
Her tail brushed my legs. “Whoa, you’re going to have to watch that tail, girl.” I laughed.
“Sorry.” Moving up and down as if jumping she repeated her question. “I’m waiting. What do you think?”
I didn’t want to hurt my friend’s feelings. “It certainly is unique.”
Her eyes thinned, visible even through the headdress. “All the trouble I went through with this costume and that’s the best you can say—unique? Do you realize that I had to sit for three hours, virtually naked while the artist—who was a good looking guy by the way—painted every part of me? I feel like I was ravaged by Van Gogh.”
I cocked my head, placed my hands on my hips and smirked. “Hmmm. Actually, Danielle you look splendid. You look ultra-sexy. So much so that you would fit right in a topless club, but aren’t you a little underdressed for a costume party? It’s too bad we’re not going to a strip joint. You’d knock them dead.”
Danielle threw her head backward. “Well. I intend to knock them dead at the party. I plan to win the award for the sexiest costume.”
I stared at the ceiling in frustration. “But Danny, you… are… naked, except for that skimpy thong.”
“Humph! I may be nude, but the feathers and paint hide that pretty well.”
I pointed at her left nipple. “Really? I can still see your breasts, your nipples and your navel. True the paint and feathers help, but the bottom line is, you’re naked and everyone will know it.”
Annoyance flashed in Danielle’s eyes, for a second, and then it was gone. She looked at me and frowned, as if noticing me for the first time. “What are you?”
I was wearing an olive green leotard with small translucent wings and a ultra short beige miniskirt. The wings had gold stars embedded. “I’m Tinker Bell.”
“Hmmm. Wasn’t Tinker Bell this big.” Danielle held her thumb and forefinger about three inches apart.
“Picky, picky. That’s in Neverland. We’re in Paradise Lost, home of massive traffic jams, drive-by shootings, perennial smog alerts, mud slides and forest fires. Here, Tinker Bell is five-seven and weighs one-fifteen.”
“Sorry. I didn’t mean anything by it. It’s just that you have too much clothing on to enter the sexy costume contest, we could probably make a few modifications and get you showing a lot more skin. You have a lovely figure and you owe it to the world to show it off.”
“I don’t want to show off my body. What’s so important about this contest anyway?”
Danielle’s eyes danced excitedly. “Last year, a virtually unknown wore a dress with the breasts and rear cut out and won the award.” Danielle got a half there grin and her eyes clouded up. “She later appeared in a major movie opposite Robert De Niro.”
“Gee, what movie was that? Was she the leading lady?”
“Well, no. She played a waitress, waiting on him, but she had two minutes and said seven words. It’s a start. Every year the winner seems to land a part and sometimes the second and third place winners do too. I intend to enter that contest tonight and win, even if I have to sleep with a judge. That’s why I’m showing off the goodies.”
I hadn’t seen the other entrants, but I had to admit, for unadulterated sexiness, Danielle’s would be hard to beat. “I don’t see how anyone could beat you for sexiest costume, unless it’s rigged.”
“I don’t think it is. Now, why don’t we see what we can do to make Tinker Bell come in second place?”
The hoar witch and her forest full of malformed creatures await Vanx and his curious group of companions as they try to save the fairy folk and their magical Heart Tree from the powerful old crone and her evil.
