Fresh Cut Romance by Dee Dawning

smile. "Very good, follow me please."  
    Millie led us across the hall into a large room. We were greeted by an attractive, Hispanic woman in a skimpy, white uniform. "That'll be all, Millicent. I'll take over now." She turned her large sparkling cow eyes on us and said, "Ooh. You're both so pretty. I'm Marla. What're your names?"
    "I'm Laurel and this is my sister Teresa."
    "Pretty names, too. I figured you were sisters. Take your robes off so I can see what you have."
    Tess removed her robe, but I hesitated just enough that Marla figured it out.
    "Shy one, huh?" She waved a hand and untied my robe. "Don't worry, I'm not a lesbian like Millicent."
    "So that's why…"
    "She watched you undress. Yes?" She spread the lapels of the robe apart and sighed, "Kiddo, if I had a body like you I wouldn't be shy about it." She winked at me.
    I felt heat surge across my face, then down my neck and across my whole body as she pulled the robe over my shoulders and down my arms. "Buck up sweetheart, you're not the only one that gets naked in front of me. Your sister doesn't seem to have a problem."
    "I'm sorry. I'm just not used to this."
    "You'd better get used to it because my hands are going to feel almost every inch of your body."
    My face obviously reflected the shock I felt, because Marla bent over and began laughing. "I'm sorry, if you could have seen the look on your face …it was precious. Have a seat, both of you. Let's talk a little."
    Tess was already sitting. As I sat on a plastic chair next to her, Marla asked, "You're not a regular. Are you here for a special occasion?"
    I crossed my legs and kind of scrunched my shoulders together in a fruitless effort to cover my breasts. I glanced down and as I'd suspected, my areola's had pebbled and my nipples grew hard. Mortified, I wanted to cover them with an arm, but that would've been even more embarrassing than allowing Marla to see them. "I suppose. I'm having dinner with Jessie's brother tonight."
    "Julian? He's a cutie. First date?'
    "Second."
    "Well, you two make a damn handsome couple."
    "That's what I'm afraid of."
    "Why's that?"
    "It's a long story. Do you mind if we skip the salt scrub? I'm not up to it." I glanced at Tess. She looked disappointed. "But could you still do Tess."
    "Sure, no problem. Tess would you get on the massage table. We'll start on your backside."
    Tess smiled at me and mounted the massage table lying face down. Marla began applying the scrub solution on her back, arms, derriere and legs. Looking at me, she said, "You, I'd like to see go into the steam shower or if you prefer, the sauna."
    I'd never had either. "What's the difference?"
    She shrugged, "One is damp heat the other is dry. Wrap this towel around you."
    I gladly wrapped the towel around me, but stayed where I was. "I'd like to wait for Tess if I may."
    "If you wish." She patted Tess on the rump. "Turn over now, please."
    As Tess turned over Marla gazed at me. "Where was I. Oh yes, I'll only be a couple more minutes on your sister, but she'll need to take a quick shower to wash off the salt residue."
    Turning back to Tess, her eyes grew wide. "I see you trim yourself."
    "Yeah, It's a little bit of a pain, but I like it and my husband loves it." She winked at Marla, who burst out laughing.
    I could see what she was talking about and I had to admit, it did look better than my overgrown bush.
    "You know Tess, I could wax it for you and with the help of inhibitor, it would last two, maybe three months."
    "Really? What would it cost?"
    "Normally it would be eighty dollars, but if you want it, it's included with your deluxe package."
    "If there's one price I can't refuse it's free," Tess joked, let's do it."
    "Great, I'll do it to you during your massage. Now, I need to ask you. Do you want me to avoid your breasts and lower area?"
    "Just do what you normally do."
    I was shaken by the question she'd asked my sister. I wasn't sure if I would be able to let anyone touch me in those places, but
