In a club in Houston

"Ok I'm going to take you under my wing tonight" said Greg as they walk into the club with the flashing lights and people all over

"Um ok" said Ashley walking through the club

"So you ready to have a good time tonight" said Greg

"Ah ya" said Ashley as he pats her on the back

"Good because we're in V.I.P so were going to have a good time" said Greg as they walk up

They walk into this room with nice white sofas and a bartender who will make any drink you want and full of girls all who look like they are models or perfect. I have never seen anything like this I guess this is just the lust of life. They all seem like they are waiting for you to talk to them. And it seem like everyone in there had money flowing out of their pockets

"Well go do something "said Greg pushing Ashley over to one of the girls

"hey" said Ashley sitting next to a girl who seemed to be dressed kind of slutty for her standards but the girl gave good conversation and seemed to interested in some of the same things I am

"So you make music" said the girl

"Ya, I sing and I dabble in rapping but I suck at it" said Ashley

"Wow that's sweet" said the girl

"What's your name" said Ashley leaning over to her so the girl could hear her over the loud music

"Carmen" said Carmen with a smile

"Beautiful name" said Ashley

"So what are you doing hanging out with greg" said Carmen

"He's cool, he's helping me with the music thing" said Ashley

"Around here he is the resident jerk, he tries to get in every girls pants" said Carmen taking a sip from her drink

"Well I don't know him that well but he seems like a good guy" said Ashley

"You're cute" said Carmen putting her hand on Ashley's knee

"Thanks" said Ashley

"Do you want to dance" said Carmen

"Ya sure" said Ashley as Carmen leads her to the dance floor

She danced to the song so smooth and she made me feel things I have never felt before while I was dancing, the look in her eye told me she wanted more then she put on. It was like she was putting a spell on me because I felt closer to her the more she danced, like her movement was telling me everything she wanted.

"I've never been with a girl before" said Carmen biting her lip and touching Ashley

"Neither have I" said Ashley with a smile

"Really well how about you take me back to the hotel and we can give it try and seen how things happen" said Carmen whispering in Ashley's ear

"How could I say no" said Ashley leading Carmen out of the club

Is this the life I really want to lead, money, cars, clothes, hoes. Hell who cares, I know she only wants me cause she seen me in the Lounge and I'm a musician and I paid for all the drinks she was drinking (even though I'm flat broke). Money can get you a lot of things, I used to hit on girls like this and I would never get anything to happen but now it's in my hands I can do whatever I want.

The Next Morning in the hotel

I wake up the next morning she is still there, im surprised I thought she would just leave me; I don't know how this shit works. I slowly get out of the bed and put on my robe so I don't wake her. I call room service to get some food.

"Good morning" said Carmen wearing nothing

"Great" said Ashley" I got some breakfast it should be here in a few"

"Ok" said Carmen sitting in Ashley's lap and kissing her

"So was last night up to par" said Ashley

"Oh yes" said Carmen

"good" said Ashley as her phone starts ringing" I have to get that" as Carmen gets up from her lap and Ashley runs in the room to get the phone

"hello" said Ashley

"Where are you kid" said Greg

"Um in my hotel room" said Ashley

"So you just had your first experience with these kind of girls" said Greg

"She isn't like that" said Ashley looking over at Carmen who is watching tv

"Look you're an artist you can get it anytime you want and you know your never going to see her again" said Greg

"Nobody knows who I am" said Ashley

"Just listen to me" said greg

"Man I got to go" said Ashley

"Ok but your flight leaves at 7 tonight to go to Atlanta" said Greg

"Hey while you were on the phone room service came" said Carmen in a robe

"oh sweet it looks great" said Ashley going for the food" so how long have you lived in Houston"

"All my life" said Carmen taking a sip from her orange juice

"That's cool" said Ashley

"Your not staying here are you" said Carmen looking Ashley in the eyes

"Well I just came here for a week and then I'm leaving tonight" said Ashley

"Oh" said Carmen

"im sorry, I don't do this to people" said Ashley" I will call you and keep in touch"

"No it's just nice to be with someone sometimes" said Carmen" I'm used to people just leaving"

"but I'm telling you I will talk to you" said Ashley kissing Carmen" now eat your breakfast so we can have a goodtime today"

She was right about everything she was saying, all of this turning me into a person I think I want to be. I think I should just play along with it. So I will take her out of the hotel and show her a good time and take her shopping for whatever she wants, so I can see her smile one more time before I leave this place, she seems like a nice girl but I heard what greg said and I think he might know better then me im straight out of high school in this big world full of flashing lights I have so much to learn.

Later that night at the airport

"hey kid, make this quick we have to get on the plane" said Greg looking at his watch

"Ok, give me a minute" said Ashley holding on to Carmen's hand

"I had such a great time today" said Carmen

"so did I" said Ashley" you made my time here a lot of fun"

"Ya look just call me anytime ok, I would love to talk to you" said Carmen

"Me too" said Ashley

"Come on now" said Greg motioning for Ashley to hurry

"I just want you to know, I like you a lot" said Carmen hugging Ashley

"You should be the one that I see every time that im here" said Ashley in Carmen's ear and walking toward Greg to get on the plane

………..But when I'm I really even here
