Absolutely Unforgivable(28)
“Then what do they ... do, in there?” I really had no idea.
Mindy giggled and explained. The girls danced around on the stage topless or in very skimpy outfits. They never got all nude. And Houston, it turned out, was home to quite a few high class gentlemen’s clubs. And my new roommate was a VIP member at one called Rick’s Cabaret which he proudly told me about as he walked in on us while Mindy was explaining how it all worked to me. I was mortified that he walked in while we were talking about a strip club but he really didn’t seem to mind. He acted as if it were just everyday conversation.
“I know where we are going tonight,” Mindy said with a huge smirk on her face.
“Oh heck no,” I snapped back.
But Billy agreed with Mindy’s plan and that was that. Before I knew what was happening, we were on our way to Mindy’s house to find a dress for me to wear that they thought would look hot on me, insisting that nothing I had was sexy enough.
About an hour later I made it back home. They had put me in an off the shoulder red mini dress, that had long sleeves that worked their way out as bells at the end. The dress was tight and clung to every curve of my body. When I walked in the door Billy stood in front of me looking me up and down and then the corner of his lips curled up as he smiled and nodded in approval.
I looked up at him and realized he was standing there completely shirtless. His jeans hung low on his hips, secured tightly by his black leather belt, and the top of his Calvin Klein boxers were showing through. He was standing there with one hand in his pocket. God he was so sexy. With his other hand he ran his fingers through his mess of hair, which caused the muscles in his chest to flex. My eyes met with the v-shaped muscles below his stomach.
Holy hell. This guy is gorgeous. How is it possible for one man to be so hot? He scrunched his eyebrows, as he if was trying to think of something important. He shook his head like he had decided whatever it was he was thinking about didn’t need to be said, and then walked back to his bedroom to find a shirt to wear.
I made my way upstairs, to put on the Christian Louboutin crystal pumps that Jeromy had bought me not too long ago. The red trim of the shoe that made its way up the heel matched the color of my dress perfectly. I grabbed my new dangly earrings and got them on as I heard the others arrive.
Billy had called Jeromy and told him what we had in mind, so he agreed to head home early that day from work. When Jeromy got home we all piled into the stretched Hummer limousine that was sitting out front. The club was across town and as much as everyone tended to drink, Billy and Jeromy thought it best to have a sober driver to get us home safely.
The whole gang was with us tonight. Besides Jeromy and myself, there was also Billy, Travis, Darla, Starla, Bran, Mindy, Zander, Brick the webmaster, Patrick the sound guy, and his girlfriend Tiffany, who I hadn’t met before tonight. Tiffany was tall and slender with pale white skin and long, black straight hair. She had long thin fingers and long nails that were painted black. She had a very scary look about her but really she was a rather sweet girl who I was beginning to warm up to. Like me, Tiffany tended to be shy and it took a while for her to loosen up.
I looked around at all the bodies packed into the limousine and realized Trista was the only one missing. That I was okay with. She was kind of a bitch to me before so I could do without her glaring at me for one night.
While Tiffany sat next to Patrick, I really looked at him, especially since he had just taken his shirt off to show off his latest tattoo. I hadn’t paid much attention to him before. The few times I had been around him before there was always so much else going on. He had well defined arms, which you could tell he must have spent a lot of time working on at the gym. Both arms were completely covered in tattoos, with a vine twisting its way around his right arm and on his left; there were various images of angels in seductive poses. His newest tattoo was strewn across his chest, near his collar bone that read “Live as if you die today” in a beautifully scripted font. He had a very short buzz cut, and a permanent five o’clock shadow. It looked like he might have been trying to grow a beard but it never came in so he just kept the small tiny bit of peach fuzz he did have.
He was about the same height as Billy, but he wasn’t nearly as good-looking. He was not bad-looking, I guess, but standing next to Billy he appears only average. Then again most people look only average standing next to Billy. That is, except Jeromy. Billy and Jeromy are two of the most amazing looking men I had ever seen in my life. They were both hot -- each in his own unique way. Either of them could drive any girl wild with just a look. They are just too much to even imagine being together, so tonight would no doubt be very interesting.
