"Alright, so we've got one left. It's a collaborative assignment, where we need one model and the rest are collaborating on painting the model. So there you go, you're free to start!"

Dani and Isabel hung their heads. Did they really have to do a project with those two!? Hillary stepped forward confidently, and spoke.

"I think I should be the model, since I've been doing some modeling!" she said smugly. Isabel, Dani and Stella didn't disagree, and they all just said "yeah alright" to that, as Hillary seemingly really wanted that role.

"Oh, and one more thing" the teacher said before he exited the room. "It's going to be a nude painting. The only rule is that you got to cover up the most intimate parts, but the painting has to be of a nude model. Good luck!"

Hillary suddenly froze. Stella also lifted an eyebrow. Dani and Isabel grinned at Hillary.

"Umm, uhh, I mean..." Hillary started, only to be interrupted by Isabel.

"Well well well, Hillary! Looks like someone has to get naked!" she said, as Hillary blushed. Dani laughed, Isabel laughed, and Stella started laughing, only to interrupt herself mid-laugh, not wanting to embarrass her friend even further.
