... and slap bang in the middle of winter. If she chickened out it would harm her growing collaboration with Deke and Jay, that was bad. On the positive side, this was new, daring, something to bring her YouTube account away from her teenage persona, help her bring an edge, attract new subscribers. "Cool," she agreed in a cheerful voice, feeling anything but cheerful inside. The premise was sound, Deke stood outside the van, able to relay Jay's directions to Elli as he framed the shot. Elli stood about twenty feet from the front of the van, the headlights shining so that she couldn't see Deke clearly, never mind Jay, but she herself was unquestionably visible. Deke played music from his phone, they'd already agreed on the section of the song she'd begin dancing to, a simple sway, sway, jump, sway motion. Elli performed it twice before Deke signalled that Jay was happy with the results, the timing of the camper vans wipers, the music and her movements all syncing up nicely. Now came the difficult part, that part she had been dreading. The cold was one thing, stripping down even a little bit in front of strangers was something else. Elli stayed where she was while Deke walked to where she stood so that the next part of the recording would line up seamlessly with what had already been done.

"Hell, the camera is so far away, nobody will be able to make out much at all. 'Sides, you got a bra on, it's like wearin' a bikini on the beach, you aint showin' any more skin than that, less even wit the scarf and shit still on you. C'mon, it's a good challenge, live a little." It hadn't been the camera though that had her reluctant to strip down, it was the idea of Deke standing so close to her as she did it that caused Elli's reluctance. Again, though she found herself painted into a corner, she could hardly tell Deke he made her feel... oddly uncomfortable, not if she wanted to keep up a creative relationship for the next day. With no visible avenue of escape, Elli went to take her coat off. Her gloved fingers and her nervously trembling hands made her attempt awkward to the point that Deke seemed to lose patience, no doubt the cold weather making him want this over and done with as well. He stepped within arm's reach, his own gloved hands far more sure as they worked her buttons apart, pulling the coat open with a flourish that had Elli's breath ...
