Animals: Love of a Sin
"You're like a drug that's killing me, I cut you out entirely. But I get so high when I'm inside you."

She admired her from afar.
Her eyes were glued in place, and no matter how hard she tried to avert her attention to something else, her brain refused. Instead, it locked her in a position where she could monitor the girl's movement. Her body language. In this moment, Jurina felt like a complete stalker.
She found it strange, yet appealing, to be staring at someone a few meters away from she's sitting and to observe every little detail of the person's physical appearance. Her clothing, her hand gestures. She monitored the occasional smiles and laughter of the girl, while simultaneously recording it in her brain so she could play it back over and over again.
The weirdest part of all was that she's staring at the body of a girl she never met once in her life.
"Hey. Hey, Earth to Jurina."
A voice demolished her thoughts, causing Jurina to avert her attention, even when she doesn't want to, towards her friend in front of her.
"Sorry. My mind was a bit hazy." She could only do nothing but apologise, though the reason behind her haziness was the girl sitting behind her friend in a distance of a few meters.
"You really gotta stop staring off into space," her friend, Sae, said while shaking her head. Taking a sip of her frappuccino, she set the cup down and looked at the younger girl in front of her again. "I could easily slap you right in the face while you're off in la la land."
Jurina scoffed, glancing at the girl who caught her attention before drinking her drink. "Try slapping me, and you'll get a nice beat down from my lawyer."
"Easy, kid. You're not the only one who has a lawyer," Sae chuckled. "Besides, it'll be a hella waste of my time slapping my favorite model for my own amusement."
"Favorite model my ass. You said that Miranda Kerr was your favorite ever since you had a photoshoot with her a couple of months ago," Jurina said, smirking slightly.
"Ah, right. Miranda Kerr. Yeah, you're probably right, she is my favorite," Sae said, smiling dreamingly. "Man, you should've seen her nice set of boobs-"
"Not here for talking about tits, Sae. Focus," Jurina said, narrowing her eyes a form of threat. She crossed her leg over the other, showing off her white sneakers before asking, "You said that a new model is recruiting tomorrow?"
"Oh, yeah. Heard from the staffs that someone will be joining our management soon. Don't know who, though, they didn't get a chance to see the girl when she was having an interview with Kojima-san," Sae explained.
"Huh. Usually we get new recruits from the beginning of June," Jurina wondered. "Kind of unusual if you ask me."
"Yeah, no kidding. Either way, she'll be coming in tomorrow according to Kojima-san, so we'll see how it goes," Sae took another sip of frappuccino and was about to talk again when she noticed Jurina staring again. "Dude, seriously, what the hell are you staring at?"
"None of your business, Sae," Jurina glared but it backfired when she saw Sae turning her body to the side. "Wait, wait, wait, what are you doing?"
Sae turned her head back towards Jurina, a shock expression noticable on her face. "Seriously?" Looking back at the girl, she pointed towards the latter in disbelief while turning back to Jurina. "Are you serious, Jurina?"
"Stop it, you're gonna make a commotion," Jurina panicked, afraid that the girl might see them while Sae was starting to stand up from her seat. "Sae, what are you doing?!"
"Asking the girl if she could join our management," Sae said cluelessly.
"Why?" Jurina whispered frantically.
"Because, take a look at her. Perfect curves, perfect breasts, perfect hair, why not? Come on, you seriously didn't tell me when I caught you staring at the girl a couple of times?" Sae whispered back, rolling her eyes in annoyance. "I'm going up to her and see if she wants to join us or not."
"Wait, Sae- hold on a moment! Gah!" Jurina facepalmed herself when she realised Sae wasn't listening to her at all. The girl was already walking towards the stranger in the distance. Thinking fast, Jurina quickly stood up and started running to Sae who was about to sit down on a chair.
"Excuse me, may I talk with you for a whi- mmph!" Sae didn't have time to finish her sentence when Jurina placed her hand over the latter's mouth in order to shut her up. Sae struggled under the grasp while the other girl smiled nervously towards the confused girl sitting on the chair in front of her.
"I'm really, really sorry about my friend over here. Sometimes she can be a little..." Jurina released Sae out of her grasp, and glared at the girl. "Crazy."
"Um, should I be concern about this?" The confused girl asked, looking oddly at Sae.
"No need, I was about to sign her up to a mental hospital for safety," Jurina joked, earning a slap on the back of her head causing her to groan in pain. "See? She's dangerous."
The girl giggled at the interaction between the two strangers in front of them. "Okay, then. Well, if you're here because of wanting to offer me some sort of management, then sorry, I'm already a part of one," The girl smiled politely. "Hope that didn't kill the mood."
"What? Really?" Earning a nod from the girl, Sae pouted. "Oh, man...."
"Oh, cheer up. You'll find someone better," The girl encouraged, her sweet smile to have left Jurina in a trance.
Sae sighed. "And I thought a girl with great boobs will come and save the day..."
Jurina snapped right out of her thoughts, pulling Sae on one arm while waving her hand with her free hand. "Well, it's nice to meet you, miss. Sorry for bothering your precious, precious time but we must go. Duty calls, and whatnot," Jurina said in a hurry, giving the girl a polite smile while waving her goodbye.
The girl was left speechless by the sudden departure, but still had a warm smile plastered on her lips. "Nice to meet you, too."
"You were perfect!" Sae's screaming was heard, earning curious glances from other visitors. "Perfect, I tell you!"
The girl giggled. What an interesting day.

"Okay, that's good for now. Fifteen minute break."
Jurina sighed, getting up from her the red sofa she had been lying on for the past hour of the photoshoot. Stretching her arms and neck, she slowly walked off the white backdrop while thanking a staff who gave her a cold bottle of water and a bathrobe to conceal her body. Black underwear was all she was wearing, and she couldn't wait to wear some clothes after the shoot.
Sitting down on one of the chairs available, she took a swig of cold water and sighed as it quenched her thirst. She wiped some sweag on her forehead and was about to stand up and go to the bathroom before someone called her name.
Turning her head, she noticed that it was Sae who called her. A camera dangling around her neck while wearing casual clothing, she looked like any photographer Jurina had ever worked with.
"You did a good job back there. Got some nice shots of you that may as well be edited soon," Sae smiled.
Jurina returned the kind gesture. "Thanks. Though you need more shots so I suggest that we should start again after the break." Sae nodded, and was about to say something before a staff came up to her and said something unclear in Jurina's ears.
Sae thanked the staff, and turned her attention back to Jurina. "The new recruit's already here. You wanna come and meet her?"
"Is that a hard question?" Jurina smirked.
"Don't test me," Sae glared at the other girl, who only laughed.
"Well, I guess it's time to meet her, then," Jurina said before waiting for Sae to walk first. They both exited to the studio, and greeted the staffs and models who walked pass them.
"So, have you seen the recruit's face yet?" Jurina asked with curiosity.
Sae shook her head. "Sadly, I haven't. Though, I have a feeling that she's gonna be one of those moderately good looking models who I found boring and..." Seeing Sae trailing off of her sentence, Jurina looked at the girl with an arched eyebrow.
"Uh, Sae?" Jurina asked, but was left confused when the other girl started chuckling.
"Well, I'll be damn," Sae grinned. "It's you again."
Jurina turned her head to the front, and was left speechless once her eyes lay upon the familiar looking person standing in front of her with an amused smile.
The girl walked up towards Jurina, and flashed the latter with a dashing smirk.
"Matsui Rena. It's nice to see you again."
