as she grabbed the pillow behind her and threw it at her sister. “Denny has been out of the picture for a while. I don’t want to talk about him right now because it will just end up ruining my night.” That was something Paige could understand because she was suffering from the same heartache.
“Enough about men who aren’t worth our tears and heartaches. Grace, we need to get you looking absolutely
gorgeous for your date. Let’s go! I might have something in my suitcase that will work,” Paige said, as she dragged her sister down the hallway to her bedroom.
“Sit! Let me get a look at your underwear drawer. You do own at least one pair of sexy lingerie, right?” Paige was the queen of sexy undergarments. Her closet and credit card had exploded several times from her trips to Victoria’s Secret and fancy lingerie boutiques in the city. One look at her sister’s underwear drawer would send Paige into heart failure for sure because Grace did not splurge on much of anything, especially underwear.
“For the love of all panties! This is not going to work Grace,” Paige said, holding up a pair of what she would have called ‘granny panties’ as she shook her head.
“I haven’t had a date in a long time, so there was really no need to invest in sexy panties. Give me that, please.”
Grace got up from the bed and snatched her ‘granny panties’ out of her sister’s hand, tossing them back into her drawer. “Let’s just forget it. I’m going to call Tyler and tell him something came up.”
She was walking toward her phone when Paige pulled her back by her jeans pocket.
“Not so fast lady! That man is into you! I saw the way he was kissing you and how his hands were grabbing onto your ass. You are not calling anyone. You are hot Grace! You have a great body and a very nice ass, but that has
been established already by Mr. McDreamy. Now sit down and let me work my artistic magic on you.”
After two hours of primping and playing dress up, Paige stood at the doorway looking at her sister, who looked amazing.
“Perfection darling! You look like one hot sexy babe. I’d totally do you . . . if I was into girls and you weren’t my sister, of course.”
Grace shook her head. Her sister always had a way with words. Paige was the racier, lacier ‘go get em before someone else scoops up that sexy man’ kind of girl. Grace wished she could be more like that, but could never find the courage. Even as she looked at herself in the mirror, she didn’t feel the same confidence Paige would have.
Grace looked beautifully stunning and absolutely sexy. Her hair was blown out straight and full, falling around her face and down to the middle of her back. She managed to convince Paige that less was more and went for a more natural—but sexy—makeup look. They kept it only to a minimum: brown eyeliner with some mascara, a mauve pink lipstick, and some peach blush to finish off the look. Paige insisted on her wearing her black skinny jeans with a cream colored sheer tunic and a white camisole, and a pair of her brown leather riding boots to finish off the outfit.
“You look amazing! He is going to be eating you up in this outfit,” she said, grinning. “He is going to especially love what you are wearing underneath it. Why didn’t you tell me you kept a secret stash of sexy lingerie? There is hope for you yet Grace!”
After thirty minutes of arguing with Paige about why it was so wrong to even think about sharing her sister’s underwear, she gave in and let her sister have a peek at her secret lingerie drawer. She bought a few pieces after she met Denny to keep things sexy in the bedroom. A lot of good that did , she thought, as she picked out a white lace bra with a matching white lace thong.
“You really do look beautiful Grace. Don’t let your past ruin your future happiness. You, more than anyone, deserve to find someone to love
