Redefining Limits

Bina had struggled with thoughts throughout the week. When weekend arrived, She met with Danny. It's been a while since the two had their usual date, as Bina became more busy with studies... And Nate.

"Why the long face?" Danny dipped a chip in ketchup and painted a dot on Bina's nose.

Bina collected her courage. "I want to have another photoshoot."

Danny was surprised. "Why suddenly? You refused Louis's second offer..."

Louis was Danny's friend who was in charge of the campaigns.

"I need a boost to my self confidence."

Danny wore a serious face. "Who harmed it?"

"No one. Just me with my fantasies." Bina looked distant.

"Nate?" Danny suddenly asked.

"No... He didn't do anything on purpose."

"And not on purpose?"

Bina sighed. "There's a girl he likes."

Danny became more interested in the conversation. "And that bothers you? You know you worth much more than this fuckhead."

Bina stared at him dazed. "Danny... He is not a bad guy."

Did he have any other interaction with him?

"He is playing around with you, so he is." Danny said plainly.

"He is not playing around with me. It's pretty much my own problem I am seeking for attention in places I shouldn't."

"I partially agree with that." Danny pointed out. "Jealous?"

"I guess I am just disappointed with myself."

"He likes somebody, what did you expect?"

Bina stared into the air. "To be like her."

"Who is she?" Danny intrigued. "Let me know so I can explain why you don't need to be her."

Bina shrugged. "I don't know."

"He showed you a picture of her?"

Bina shook her head negative.

Danny sneered lightly. "So where's the idea from? You are just jealous."

"He said she's some sort of a supermodel."

Danny's face implied that he had just gotten blessed by the angel of deep understanding.

"You want to be a supermodel?" He asked with a hint of offerring in his voice.

"I want to feel like one." She said with a faint voice, almost whispering.

Danny picked up his phone and called Louis. Their conversation was very casual and light, and it was apparent that Louis was thrilled to have Bina back on his set.

"Next Thursday, Valentine's campaign?" He asked Bina.

Bina nodded without a thought, and Danny confirmed last details with Louis quickly.

"Got it." He told her. "Are you sure you want to do it? It might be more daring this time. Louis likes hot stuff on Valentine's."

"I'll be fine as long as I remain unrecognizable."

Between the normal life routines, time passed by flying until the day of the photoshoot came.

Neither Bina nor Nate raised the topic of their favorite ones again up till Thursday, when Bina had to decline Nate's invitation to a match.

"Sorry Nate, I have a prior engagement."

"That's very important for me, it was rescheduled by surprise from tomorrow." Nate pleaded her to join him.

"My plans are very important too." Bina felt uneasy with refusing her source of admiration.

That could be a chance to get closer in a parallel universe, she thought.

"May I ask what's so important?" Nate demanded.

Bina sighed. "I also have somebody to impress."

Nate became expressionless and his heart dropped. He blinked a couple of times in an attempt to reset his brain.

"Who?" He asked.

Bina lowered her head to look away and answered, "I can't tell."

"So you are going on a date?" Nate tried to understand his position now.

Bina reacted with a light giggle, "No Nate, I am having some... Empowering activities today, for myself."

"Alone?"

"With Danny."

That f*****g Danny.

Nate moved in restlessness. Another perverted idea?

"Okay. Have fun." He said anxiously. "I will still be waiting to see you today."

"Good luck!" Bina nodded softly and waved him goodbye before she left to her business.

***

Around five afternoon Bina arrived to the studio. Louis greeted her with excitement typical to him, or rather say them. Louis preferred to be addressed as 'they' as none of the male or female addressing fitted them.

The session began with explanations of the setting and the process (as well as getting acquainted with the crew), definition of the do's and don't's, and signing the contracts. Immediately after, Bina was taken to the dressroom for her makeup and hair. This time she was prepared to appear with her own head, but under massive disguise to be as less recognizable as possible. And so, heavy color, flakes and powder filled her eyes and nose together with a mask made of feathers and roses, leaving only her round well shaped lips identifiable only to talents.

Her hair was left curly ('I would want to raise the self esteem of curly girls') and shaped with delight, and she was dressed in a black two part babydoll, having the lace-only top connected with straps to the thigh-cropped, transparent black leggins, and in between - black thong.

She was covered at first with a satin black night robe, from which the shooting began.

Later in the process, she removed the robe and was shot only in angels that would hide her front (worth mentioning that nudity was no use for the advertising as well due to restrictions in that field), when in the end she had also removed entirely her top. This time in the process she asked Danny to go outside the set, as she wouldn't feel comfortable exposing herself that much around him.

The topless session included also her pouring warm chocolate on herself, which was filmed in slow motion, and the best still shots would be editted for the final ads, while the others will be used for the catalogue.

The session took around three hours total, and the crew members were very impressed by Bina's cooperation. As soon as it ended, she washed herself and met Danny outside.

Eight. I can make it to the second half.

"A drink?" Danny offerred.

"I have to hurry somewhere else." Bina tried to hide the fact she was going to meet Nate.

"Where?"

"Campus. I left my stuff there." She wasn't lying, she indeed left her things at the lab so she wouldn't have to carry them all the way.

"Fine." Danny smiled. "Had fun?"

"Yes, thank you. I'm looking forward for the final results."

Her bus was about to arrive, and noticing it she ran quickly towards it to catch it.

***

Bina entered the court a bit after the second half started.

It's short, but that's the best I can do.

Nate's team was already in favor, so Bina simply enjoyed watching Nate running and jumping around with all his mass.

He looks even better when he tries hard.

When the match was over, the team celebrated with the usual ceremony of jumping on Nate and hugging him, but Nate was very indifferent to the situation.

He just walked slowly towards the dressers, sneaking a disappointed glance at the almost empty VIP seats.

What? Nate froze at his gait. He looked around and back to the same spot to assure he wasn't dreaming.

Bina waved him lightly from afar and smiled at him. He probably wanted me to come since nobody else could.

Nate's face filled with joy to his disbelief. He left his team to meet her.

"You came." Nate looked as if he was about cry.

Bina felt uncomfortable with lying so she fixed him, "I made it only for the second half. Sorry I couldn't be here earlier. You did a great job though!"

Nate leaned over to her and hugged her tightly. "That's more than enough."

When he realeased her, she looked dazzled.

Nate noticed shreds of makeup on her face, and tiny sparkles spreaded around her.

"Bina," he lowered his voice and looked into her eyes.

Now Nate, Now!

"By any chance..." he continued to murmur.

What are you doing brain?!

"Photoshoots?"

What. Have. You. Done?!

Bina turned red from blushing to Nate's accurate guess, but tried to play along with confidence, putting a naughty face. "Yes."

Nate silenced and couldn't hide the dirty smile on his face. "You could just say."

"I prefered not to. You know, being discreet and all."

Deep down, she liked the idea of him seeing her perfect body and admiring it, but the feelings of inferiority helped her clear her mind from this.

"Thanks, Bina." He tapped her nose lightly with a finger and rejoined his friends.

He is dreamy.
