Her Inverted Intimacy Challenge: part 2-  Platonic friends help with Intimate shaving, complicated by arousal. (voyeur/exhibition) By darrenr.  Listen to the Podcast at Steamy Stories. “There’s one thing, though,” Anna said hesitantly. “I’m nervous about wielding a razor in such a tender place when I can’t see very well down there. Would you, would you be willing to help me?” Jake swallowed. “Help, um, help you shave?” Anna nodded. “I know it’s a big favor. It’s no problem if you’d rather not.” Jake couldn’t think of anything he wanted to do more than spend some quality time with Anna’s vagina. “It’s not that! I’m happy to help. It’s just, I’ve never shaved a, um, you know, a…” “Vulva?” Anna said with a smirk. “It’s okay to use the word. Anyway, neither have I! But you have the advantage of being able to see down there.” “Okay, fair point,” Jake said. “But it also means, well in order to do this, I’ll need to…” Anna raised her eyebrows waiting for him to finish. “I’ll be clean,” Anna said. “I’m going to shower first, of course.” Jake wasn’t expecting that. He shook his head. “Oh, no, I’m not concerned about that. I just mean I’ll need to, touch, you. There. You know, to shave you.” Anna frowned. “Yes, ah, I see the difficulty now. You’ve got a friend sincerely asking for your help with her most private place, and you’re balking because even a clean vulva is, let’s face it, pretty gross.” “NO!” Jake said. “That’s not it at all!” Anna looked hurt. “I’m sorry, I don’t mean to yell. You’re completely misunderstanding me. I don’t think you’re gross in any way. I don’t think your, vulva is gross. At all. Not to be too corny about it, but I think your whole body is beautiful. Including your vag–, I mean, vulva.” Anna looked skeptical. Jake grimaced. “I’m nervous because, well, you’ve said our relationship isn’t sexual. I have to be honest with you. There’s no way I can touch your body, your vulva, and not be affected. Sexually.” Anna bit her lip and looked down, nodding. “I’m still figuring myself out. I think that experience with Andrew all those years ago affected me more than I realized. I don’t know what I want, or what I feel. I just know I feel safe with you.” She lifted her head to look him in the eye. “Do you think it’s possible to just pretend that it’s not sexual between us?” “Yes, I can do that,” Jake said. “Though my body might react differently.” Anna smiled in relief. “Then there’s nothing to worry about. Once the novelty wears off, you’ll realize what a tedious task you’ve volunteered for. Now come ON already.” Her face bright with happiness, she jumped up from the couch, pulling him by the hand to the bathroom. “I’m happy to help shave you in return, of course.” “That’s probably safest,” Jake said, trying to play it cool as he realized where she would be touching him. They showered together like normal. Anna got two fresh towels, spreading one on the floor of the bathroom and keeping the other folded as a pillow. She unwrapped a new razor and put it, along with a can of shaving cream, beside the towel. Lying down on her back, she stretched her legs out and spread them apart. “Do you think I should shave it all or keep a patch of hair?” she asked. Jake stood transfixed by the sight, contemplating her lovely bush. It was full and fluffy and beautiful, with light brown hair looking impossibly soft. Part of him didn’t want her to shave it, but only part of him. “We could definitely leave a patch of hair if you want. Though even if you start fully shaved it would grow back soon.” “Good point. Let’s just shave it all to start.” She reached for the can of shaving cream. “Wait,” Jake said. “When I’ve shaved my beard in the past it worked much better when I clipped the hair short first. Otherwise the razor gets clogged. I have some small mustache scissors, if you want?” “Good idea,” Anna agreed. Jake dug in his drawer until he found the scissors, and then turned to face her and froze. Could he really do this? He felt a bit fa
