Tit for Tat
Sex and Candy Ch. 1
My phone beeps as I get out of my truck.
You're late. Had to put Ally on! –Emmy.
I grab my bag and head into the back entrance of tits and tats. I try to avoid Emmet whenever I'm in a bad mood and tonight I am DEFINETLY in a bad mood. Knowing I'm already late and need to blow off some steam after my argument with my son before work, I rush to the dressing room and throw on my costume for the song I am going to do. I rush over to the DJ when I realize there's about a minutes left in Ally's set. When I tell the DJ the song he laughs and asks if I'm sure but I know I am so I just walk away. He is one of my favorite DJs. He is a sweet kid who's been here long enough to know that the song I picked is out of vengeance and not exactly like for the actually song. Hearing the first notes of Marcy playgrounds "Sex and Candy" I walk out onto the stage and scan the crowd for the bouncer nearest me. We lock eyes and I nod, letting him know I see him. I start my set and see an older man a few rows back from the stage slamming shots and tipping our shot girl, crystal generously. Crawling over in the direction of his table I crook my finger at him and he obediently comes to me. After giving him a 30 second mini show I return to do some pole tricks and collect my tips when the song ends. As I'm heading back to the dressing room to change crystal mean mugs me so I flip the bitch off. She turns away and I grin to myself. I've never really had an issue with her but I do have an issue with her throwing hissy fits over me stealing her tips. I bump into a squishy wall know as Emmet and groan. He does this shiz on purpose!
"What's up buttercup?" I say with a sweet with a fake smile plastered on.
"You know dang well "what's up!" he makes air quotes with his fingers and then grabs his junk.
"Oh stop being such a baby Emmy it's just a song that you have heard a billion times, no need to get all worked up"
"Lexi you know what that song does to me and you do it on purpose and it's now fair. "
"Well that's what you get for blowing up my phone all night, I had shit to take care of. Specifically your 2 little shits that are determined to give me gray hairs before I turn 30!"
He chuckles and asks what Derick did this time. Em and I had beautiful twins when I was 14 and he was 18. Yeah now exactly how I had planned having kids but things happen and I don't regret it one bit. We had met at an anger management class when I was 13 and screwed our anger and my virginity away the next day. We tried to be in love but all we ever had over the 6 years we were together was lust so when Emmy's dad died and he took over the club we split and he hired me on full time so we could both have stable jobs to support Chloe and Derick. It's worked great for the most part but now that the kids are teenagers and I and Em have the same schedule its rough keeping them in line.
"He didn't do anything, your little angel decided to sneak out with that boy again when she thought I had already left. I had to track her down and not kill the kid she was with."
"Why not kill him!"
Oh great he is yelling now! "Listen dumb ass, I didn't kill him because it's illegal and Chloe sneaking out isn't his fault it's hers. Don't worry though, I'm pretty sure he pissed his pants when he saw me get out of the truck with a baseball bat" laughing at the memory I push passed Emmet and head to the back to get dressed to work the room.
After my shift is done I meet up with ally at IHOP for some breakfast. Its 4am and I got to be home at 530 to wake the kids up for school. She is going on and on about this new tattoo she wants me to ask jasper to do for her and I'm trying to explain to her for the thousandth time that he only does black tats.
"Well, who can you suggest for color tats then?"
"I don't know the guy who used to do mine sold his shop and I haven't been in there since. I need to make an appointment though because I want to get something for my birthday."
"Well make me one too! I got to get this angel on my ass A.S.A.P." she shows me the pic of the pin up angel she wants. Ally is my ex-girlfriend and when we broke up a few years back she started getting into pin up tats. She says they are the only girls who will never leave her. Our break up was messy for a while but we got over it and now the pin up girl thing is kind of an inside joke between us. We still mess around every now and again but only because she is sexy as hell and so am I. she is about 5 foot with long black hair that she ads different color streaks to all the time, currently they are red. She has her eyebrow, tongue, nipples, clit, and lip pierced, with a full sleeve on her right arm and about ten other tats one of which is my name on her inner thigh.
I tell her ill make us an appointment for Saturday morning and we say good bye. I hop in the truck and drive home half asleep. I had 5 cups of coffee at the restaurant but I'm pretty sure I'm immune to the stuff at this point. When I walk in the door I hear noises coming from the living room and check my phone. Its 5:15 so I assume Chloe is up. When I walk in what I find is not what I expected and wakes me right the fuck up!
