The paper

"First off, I figured you'd love to see this!" Vanessa thrust a newspaper out at Lauren.

"You're famous!"

Lauren took the paper in shock. It was the community section of the local newspaper. On the front cover was the picture that woman had taken yesterday of Lauren getting hoisted up to the basketball hoop. Oh god she looked... horrible! She was shirtless, with only the girdle covering her breasts and unfortunately pressing them totally flat. There wasn't much there to begin with, but in this picture it looked like they were completely flat! Worse, her stomach was exposed, pressed against the back of the guy's head with rolls clearly visible. She had stomach rolls!

Lauren wanted to think she looked like the adult woman she knew she was... but it wasn't true. With the ball cap, the flat chest, the belly, dorky shorts, awkwardly putting a ball in a hoop from piggy back... she look just like the dorky boy everyone thought she was!

Lauren groaned, looking away. She couldn't believe it! She was in the newspaper... looking like that! She prayed nobody recognized her!
