And this time it was his turn to start blushing.  Why was it suddenly weird to have them so close together, he thought, as her hands smoothed his sleeves and dropped slowly to his zipper.  He should be used to hiding these things from her by now, but as Grace looked up at him, Corey could feel his insides quaking.<br/><br/>“Oh, yeah, lets go.”  He half croaked as Grace turned around, offering him another view of her ensemble in all its glory.  Clearing his throat, Corey managed to speak a little more clearly.  “Let’s see how these other schools manage to hold up against your cupcakes…”<br/>
