Sexy Santa or Naughty Elf?
The early December pre-Christmas party at a neighbour's house was in full swing, drink flowed freely, the music was not too loud, and people were mingling and chatting happily.
"Hi Jim, you look far away, pensive even," said Rachael, the pretty young woman who lived two doors away from him, along with her husband and two young children
"I was just wondering."
"What?"
"If you'd be more inclined to be a Sexy Santa or a Naughty Elf." Jim suddenly stopped talking, why the hell had he said what he was thinking? He'd never flirted with Rachael before, and she'd never encouraged him in any way, so why come out with something like that?
"Excuse me, what? Sexy Santa or Naughty Elf?"
"Yeah, if you were to dress up, say for a Christmas party, which outfit would you choose? Sorry, I didn't mean to say it out loud."
"No, but you were obviously thinking it." Rachael paused to let her annoyance with the inappropriate comment sink in. "Well, I suppose that is for me to know and for you to wonder about. Or, is it dream about?" Rachael looked at Jim with mischievous humour dancing in her eyes as a smile spread slowly across her lips.
"As I said, I'm sorry, it's just a little game I play with myself."
"A bit pervy though, isn't it?" Rachael paused before continuing, "Shall I tell you a secret? I'd be a Naughty Elf every time, there's much more fun in that." With that, Rachael skipped away from Jim, leaving him wondering what she meant about more fun.
As she mingled with the other guests, Rachael pondered about what Jim said, but even more so, why he had been thinking it. He'd never flirted with her before, or made any off-colour remark that could in any way be construed as a come-on. Oh yeah, he'd checked her out, she'd been aware of that, but again, it hadn't been in a creepy or lecherous way. No, simply in the way a man looks at an attractive woman.
Rachael wasn't one of the #Me2 crowd who thought every man was a potential rapist or that every compliment was an uninvited pass. Besides, she wasn't a hypocrite, she had checked him out the same way. It had happened in July three years previously, a couple of days after she and Oliver had moved into their new home.
They'd all met on the street outside Jim's house, where he was working in the garden on a scorching hot day. He was in just a pair of shorts and trainers, no top. Jim was well muscled in a natural way, his body rippled as he moved. Nice, Rachael had thought at the time, but that was it. A simple appreciation of a nicely toned man's physique. Jim's eyes had quickly roamed over her own body, dressed as it was in a loose, short summer dress, and then they had returned to her face, nothing more, not even a hint of a suggestive smile.
Rachael is one of those women who exude sex appeal. Some women have it, others don't. Rachael did, well at least as far as Jim was concerned. She has a pretty face framed by shoulder-length, black shiny hair, is medium height, her body is slim, with very small breasts, but an arse to die for. Nicely shaped, and not overly large, and with just the right firmness as she walks, giving it a cute perkiness, emphasised by the fact that Rachael tends to wear skin-tight leggings a lot. She also has an infectious laugh and is very loud, bubbly and exuberant.
Jim didn't see Rachael, or her husband, Oliver, for the remainder of the party. Over the weekend, nor the following week, so he had put the incident out of his mind when the phone rang on the Monday morning of the week after.
"Hi, Jim, it's Rachael. Can you possibly help me, I'm in a bit of trouble, and Olly went to London on business first thing this morning. I'm supposed to be working from home, but the power's gone off. Do you think you could pop in and have a quick look at things for me?"
This wasn't such an outrageous request as Oliver and Rachael knew that Jim had trained as an Electrician before moving into product management and technical support for a large electrical company. Rachael and Oliver are designers, whatever that means.
"Okay, I'll be 'round in about five minutes. I'm sure it's nothing major, so I'll have you happily up and running designing things shortly."
"Great, I'll leave the door open for you as I'm in the middle of something. Just come in, don't bother to knock."
Five minutes later Jim rang the bell at Rachael's and shouted, "Rachael, it's me, Jim. Where are you?" as he walked in.
"Through here," was the reply from the lounge.
Jim walked into the lounge and nearly had a heart attack. Rachael was standing there in a very sexy Naughty Elf outfit. Green coloured shorts, a red top with a white collar and brown ankle boots with those trimmings that look like leaves on the side. The fact that she was standing on one leg, the other pulled up so that her knee was sticking out, her heel level with and tucked under her bum. A naughty smile on her face added to the overall impact. She had a finger of one hand touching her teeth to add to the impish, naughty look.
"What the f...."
"I've been a Naughty Elf, and I've been told I need to be punished," Rachael lisped in a sexy and clearly inviting way.
