Chapter 2: A Bar
Richard went back to his house contemplating what Rachel had said to him.
Flashback:
"I'm sorry she said no."
End Flashback:
"Who was she talking about?" Richard asked himself out loud.
"Who was who talking about?" Abby asked from behind the couch. (Abigail is now like 4 and Ryan is 3)
"Don't worry about it. Abby would you mind going to Danielle's house for a little bit?" Richard asked sitting down next to his daughter.
"What about Ryan?" Abigail asked looking over at her dad.
"I'm sure John wouldn't mind having somebody to play with," Richard said smiling.
"Ok, I guess I could go play with my bestest friend," Abby said smiling.
"Ok, I guess I'll go call her," Richard said tickling Abby before he walked over to the door.
"Hey Rachel," Richard said.
"Oh hi. Listen I' sorry about what I said," Rachel said.
"Forget about it. Can you watch Abby for a few hours?" Richard asked cutting Rachel off.
"Um sure. Can I ask why?" Rachel asked him.
"I just need to be alone," Richard said running his hand through his hair and sighing.
"Ok I'll come and get her," Rachel said before hanging up.
"Hey Richard," Karen said from the other line.
"Hi Karen. Are you busy today?" Richard asked her.
"No, why? Do you need me to do something for you?" Karen asked.
"Yea, can you watch Ryan for a little bit?" Richard asked.
"Sure. I'll come and pick him up in 5 minutes," Karen said before hanging up.
"Ryan, Aunty Karen is going to e here in a little bit so you can play with John. So get whatever you want to bring and be down here in 5 minutes," Richard yelled up the stairs.
"Same goes for you," Richard said pointing to Abigail before she ran up the stairs giggling. Somebody knocked on the door,
"Come in," Richard yelled from the couch.
"Hey Richard," Rachel said as she stepped inside.
"Hey Rachel," Richard said.
"Abigail, Aunty Rachel is here," Richard yelled over his shoulder.
"Where's Ryan?" Rachel asked.
"Upstairs getting his things," Richard said before Ryan came running down the stairs.
"Daddy, Aunty Karen is here," Ryan said looking out the open door.
"Alright. See you in a bit," Richard said walking over to Ryan and hugging him.
"Hey Richard. Hey Rachel," Karen said taking Ryan's hand.
"Hey Karen. Thanks for taking Ryan for me," Richard said.
"No problem. See you in a bit," Karen said walking away with Ryan.
"So where are you really go to go?" Rachel asked as Abby ran out the door and over to the Roth House. (I call it the Roth house because I like to!)
"A bar," Richard said looking over at Rachel.
"Richard don't go and get wasted just because of what I said," Rachel said.
"It's not because of what you said," Richard said walking out the door.
"I just need time to think," Richard said locking the door once Rachel stepped out.
"Oh yea, and a bar is the perfect place to think," Rachel said watching Richard as he got on his motorcycle.
"I don't know when I'll be back so Abby might be sleeping over," Richard said starting his bike.
"Richard you can't just leave your kid at my door step!" Rachel yelled at Richard.
"I'm all alone and haven't had a date in three years! It's one day," Richard said shoving on his helmet and then driving away.
"Richard you dumb ass!" Richard yelled at him. She sighed and walked back to her house.
"I hope he doesn't try to find Kori " Rachel said before shutting the door.
With
Kori:
"Kori get your ass out here!" the manager yelled for Kori. It was her sift on stage and she was running late.
"I'm coming!" Kori yelled running out onto the stage. There were guys everywhere, and they were hooting and hollering as Kori walked on stage and started dancing. They were wolves searching for food trying to get their hands on anything they could. Men were throwing money up on the stage and into the hat Kori had on earlier.
With Richard:
He stopped his motorcycle and took off her helmet. He was at the Dancing Beer Bottle. (I just thought up a name for the bar.) He walked in and looking at all the drunk males. He followed the eyes of the men and soon laid eyes on Kori.
Richard stood there and watching as Kori pulled off her shirt and all that was covering her chest was a black lace bra. Kori did some more dancing and then walked off stage. Richard ran over to the stage door, but was stopped when he was pushed back.
"No trespassing," the tall and buff African American said looking down at Richard.
"I'm Richard Grayson!" Richard yelled standing up.
"I need to see your ID," the man said. Richard pulled out his wallet and was soon surrounded by nearly naked woman.
"I heard you're single," a lady with long black said.
"Yea, but I' not here for you. I'm looking for Kori Anders," Richard said looking around the dressing room.
"That tramp? She's probably taking a shower. She makes the most money because of her body, but she hates every minute of it," the same lady said.
"Thanks," Richard said slipping her a 50 dollar bill and then walked over to the showers.
There was one shower running and Richard could see Kori's red hair. He ducked down low and started creeping over to her shower. He poked his head up,
"Boo!" he yelled before Kori screamed and wrapped her towel around her body.
"Hey Kori," Richard said looking down at her.
"Richard!" Kori screamed.
"So you work at a strip club- bar? I thought you could do better than that, "Richard said.
"Why are you here?" Kori asked looking at him.
"I missed you," Richard said pulling Kori close to him.
"I've missed you money," Kori said smiling.
"That can't be all you've missed about me," Richard said smirking.
"You're right. I've missed your motorcycle," Kori said trying to pull away, but Richard kept her in his grasp.
"You're lying, I can see it in your eyes," Richard said pulling her even closer to him.
"You're right, I've missed you," Kori said before she kissed him. Richard wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her so close he could feel her heart beat. Kori had her arms around his neck and her hands in his hair. They pulled away from eachother and Richard smiled.
"You might want to finish your shower," Richard said looking down at her towel that was only still around her body because he was holding her so close. The back had unrolled so he could see her bare back, but no lower.
"Will you wait for me?" Kori asked grabbing her town and putting it back down from where she took it from. She turned her head around and started to laugh. Richard was staring right at her butt with his mouth open.
"Will you wait for me?" Kori asked him again. Richard came back to earth and looking at Kori's face.
"I'll be right around the corner," Richard said pulling his eyes away from Kori and walking away. 15 minutes later Kori came out in jean shorts, a purple tang top, and white flip flops.
"Aren't you going to get cold?" Richard asked looking at what Kori was wearing.
"I'll be fine, don't worry," Kori said walking towards the door. Richard followed and was soon once again surrounded by women.
"Where are you going?" the same lady with long black hair asked Richard.
"With her and away from you," Richard said pushing her way through. He took hold of Kori's hand and she pulled him out of the group.
"Thanks," Richard said.
"I want to spend time with you and that's just what I'm going to do," Kori said smiling. Kori let go of his hand and walked away. Soon the sound of motorcycles could be heard through out the town as Richard and Kori drove away.
