Resist

You take off the black lipstick and feel the horror of what you’ve done. Despite knowing what the lipstick will do, you want it. You want to look beautiful and feel free of the guilt. You pick up a tube. It would be so easy to slide it over your lips. Your hands shake as you put it down.

You take a deep breathe. The first thing you need to do is get that lipstick off Moon.

You have butterflies in your stomach as you drive into work. You arrive and get in line for security. They dump the entire contents of your bag and examine them one by one.

They pat you down and if not for the line, you think it would have been a body cavity search.

You make it up to your cube and see Davis by your chair. You keep your fingers crossed and hope she’ll help you with Moon.

As she turns to face you your heart sinks. She is dressed in a short, tight, black dress. Her body looks fantastic and her wrinkles are gone. Her cherry red lips curl into a smile.

“Gracie, I have work for you.”

“Sure, Davis.”

“Here.” She hands you some advertising material.

“You know there’s a new policy. All my girls need to be in product. Feel free to go to the restroom anytime. If you’re in red, stop by my office and we’ll chat.”

She licks her lips at her last comment and you wonder what that ‘talk’ would be about.

You sit down and take deep breath. You can still do this. You just need to start with Moon.

You hear the clacking of high heels behind you. You turn to see Moon. Your jaw drops.

She is wearing stiletto heels which highlight her long shaved legs. A black vinyl miniskirt barely covers her whole ass. A tight dark purple tube top exposes the outline of barbell pierced nipples. Her armpits are shaved as well as the side of her head. Her cherry red lips curl into a devilish smile.

“Gracie, thank you for helping me find my color. I talked Davis into trying it last night. I think she looks great, don’t you?”

You swear silently. “She looks positively lickable.”

“Just what I wanted to hear from my bestie, but why no makeup?”

“I was in a rush this morning.”

“Well it’s a good thing I have a spare tube! To the bathroom now!”

The bathrooms are fairly private, you could go and try to wipe the lipstick off Moon there, or perhaps stall her…
