Pictures

Even after Ryan reached his dorm room, he didn't stop his call with Rose and chatted as he prepared something to eat for himself. Even though he ate at Rose's place, he still needed a good night snack for all the stress he had to go through that day.

When Rose heard the topic of their lecture, she was so excited that she couldn't help but ask him to tell her more in detail. It was after all exactly what she wanted to learn as there was a really high chance she would lead a fashion company in the future.

Ryan ended up briefly describing everything he could remember and knowing he listened attentively the whole time, he took a lot from this lecture. Though, what he could finish in less than thirty minutes ended up prolonging to an almost three hours chat as Rose continued to ask multiple questions which they discussed eagerly.

It was already a bit over ten o'clock when Ryan heard a knock on the other side of the phone call before Dana called out to Rose, "It's late, go to sleep soon. You have classes early in the morning."

They didn't even finish all of the topics from his lecture yet they ran out of time. "Curfew?" Ryan asked amused, forgetting how it was to have parents keeping a watch over him. It has been over four years since he left his family house.

Rose seemed to be really surprised as she called back to her mother, "What...? It shouldn't be that late. What time is it?"

She didn't need a direct answer as she seemed to check on her phone and asked Ryan confused, "Did we really just spend three hours chatting?"

"Hehe, I think we did," Ryan confirmed with a chuckled and added, "I must tell I enjoyed it a lot. If you need to go, we can finish our conversation tomorrow. We will meet anyway."

"I enjoyed it too… I don't want to end it yet…" Rose muttered bummed out. "I am really curious about what you guys discussed next."

"Who are you talking to?" Dana asked curiously, sounding like she walked closer to Rose as Ryan could hear her better. "Is it Ryan?"

"Yes, we were discussing his lecture for the last three hours. I didn't even feel how fast the time flew," Rose replied honestly, having nothing to hide. "Give us a few minutes, I will go to bed in a bit. I want to say goodnight."

"Did you tell him already?" Dana asked without keeping her voice down, making Ryan curious.

"No, I didn't. I will tell him tomorrow," Rose replied and stood up, pushing Dana out of the room, "Shu, shu, go away. I know what to do." As her phone was still in her hand, taking a direct part in the action, Ryan could hear everything which allowed him to guess the whole scenario.

Slam.

The door closed and Rose immediately explained to the phone, "I'm back, sorry. My mom has already left."

"Is there something you need to tell me about?" Ryan naturally questioned, not leaving the subject untouched.

"Ah, it's not something we should talk over the phone. Can we talk about it tomorrow? We can visit a nice cafe and chat over a coffee," Rose proposed and explained further, "It's not a simple matter and we don't have much time now."

"Fair enough, I'm fine with it," Ryan agreed, not dwelling on it. She wouldn't dodge the topic if it wasn't something important.

Instead, Ryan got out of bed and walked up to his closet, realizing he would have to look nice on their date. Unfortunately, wherever he looked, he couldn't find anything fitting. It has been a while since he updated his wardrobe.

"We didn't finish chatting about your lecture… Do you maybe have the presentation that substitute teacher used? I would love to take a look at it," Rose asked just as Ryan gave up on checking his closet.

I guess I will have to buy something new tomorrow. I should have enough money for a decent outfit...

Ryan thought as he replied to Rose, "I don't have it but I have contact with the teacher. I will ask for a copy from her. She seemed to be nice so I doubt it would be a problem."

He knew it was a risky move but he didn't want to reject Rose's request. If it was Jennie he was sure she would not give it for free but he believed Lisa wasn't like that.

"Ah! Yes, please!" Rose exclaimed excitedly. "I would be grateful. I am really passionate about fashion so I want to study it properly."

"No problem. I will get it done," Ryan promised and was about to say his goodbyes when Rose's next words stopped him. "Wait a moment, I will go brush my teeth and come back. Don't leave anywhere."

"Rose?" He asked to confirm she left and he didn't get any response. He could only copy her and also got ready to bed. He brushed his teeth, cleaned in the kitchen before getting inside the bed. To his surprise, Rose was still not back.

Having extra time, he minimized the call and drafted a message to Lisa. He didn't know if he should address her by her title or more casual but for the sake of Rose, he acted more friendly.

'Hey Lisa, I hope I didn't disturb your sleep. I have a small favor to ask from you. Would you mind sharing the presentation you used in today's classes? I really liked it and would love to study it again in my free time. Thank you, Ryan.'

He clicked the send button and planned on returning to Rose's call when he felt a buzz from the notification. Lisa replied right away.

'Sure, drop me your email and I will send it. I don't have it on my phone.'

He smiled, happy that he guessed her character right and sent her the details she wanted. In the next two minutes, he received a notification that he received an email with a few attachments. Ryan immediately checked it and was taken aback by the amount of data she sent.

Aside from the presentation itself, she sent him dozens of different reports and statistics, too many to go through on the spot. They were all connected to fashion and business research about it. He only checked one and noticed how many notes Lisa wrote, explaining the data in simple words. It was definitely something valuable.

Huh?

Ryan was about to close the email when he noticed a folder that Lisa sent together with everything. The name of it baffled him, "Pics"

He naturally got curious about what pics were inside, thinking Lisa sent it on purpose. Ryan tapped it gently but at the same time, a notification box popped up, right on top of the first picture that got displayed.

'Ryan! Don't open the folder! I sent it by mistake.'

Cough!

Ryan cleared his throat, suddenly feeling dry. He quickly understood why she told him not to open them. Lisa was half-naked in the very first picture that showed up!

She was sitting on the wooden floor with her slender legs spread to both sides and held a white teddy bear in the middle of them. It partly covered her red lace panties yet he could still see her perky butt in the reflection of the mirror behind her.

He couldn't help but travel with his eyes all the way from her white knee-socks up to her naked belly before stopping at her chest and face. She wore a short white top which she was biting seductively while giving the camera an aggressive gaze. Her ample breasts were exposed, outlined with a tight lace bra that matched her panties.

Bzzz, bzzz.

Various notifications kept coming up on the screen as if he joined an active chat group.

'Please, don't look at it! There are so many pics I don't want anyone to see.'

'Ryan, are you there? Don't tell me you are looking at them?'

'Waaaaaaah! Stop! It's so embarrassing…'

'I made those pics only for myself… I wanted to have a memento for the future while I'm still young and pretty… Please tell me you didn't look at them…'

As he already looked once, Ryan was guilty anyway so he didn't mind taking another glance before finally switching to their conversation.

'I'm sorry, I opened it before you messaged me. I only looked at the first picture, the one with the teddy bear. I closed it after you told me to stop.'

He wasn't that horny to break her privacy because of this mistake. Lisa was quick to respond, sounding like she was relieved.

'Ah, thank God… It's the least revealing one. Can you please delete that folder? I only want to show my body to my future boyfriend, no one else.'

Ryan was already planning on that even though the curiosity was pressuring him to check out other pictures as well and quickly saved all the files besides the pictures on his online drive before deleting the email.

He wanted to reply to assure her yet saw another message pop up on the screen.

'Did you like it at least…? The first pic...? My best friend told me to pose like that…'

As if the girls got in sync, a sudden female voice caused him to jump, almost making him throw away his phone.

"Ryan, I'm back! Sorry, I had to take off my contacts and clean some make-up. Did you wait long? I lost track of time."
