Tina casually walked downstairs after hearing the front door closed. She greeted her very enthusiastic friend. Lei Fang happily lead herself to the kitchen, not noticing her best friend just arrived to the kitchen, settling herself down on the nearest chair. Tina grinned, watching her best friend hummed to one of her their favorite love song. Lei Fang turned to the counter and yelped as she came face to face with Tina. Lei Fang raised on eyebrow curious to her friend staring at her mischievously.
Lei Fang slowly grabbed the bowl for her cereal and the milk from the fridge. She was feeling uncomfortable from the stare down. Lei Fang sighed.
"Okay, what is it , Tina?" Lei Fang asked putting down the cereal box. She gave Tina her full attention.
"Oh...Nothing." Tina responded amused. She grabbed the apple from the fruit bowl. She was smiling ear to ear. The only thing that could be heard was Tina enjoying every bite and chew of her apple while innocently humming. Lei Fang stopped for the moment, collecting every single hint her crazy friend was throwing.
"...How much you know...?" Lei Fang slowly asked. Tina continue to hummed casually. Lei Fang eyes widen. "No..."
"Oh, yass Ms. Fang." Tina gave her the most mischievous smile she ever seen. "I heard ev-ery-thing" Tina sung out.
Lei Fang placed her head on the counter out of embarrassment. She enjoyed her night too much that she has forgotten about her living situation with Tina.
"So I guess Mr. Stick-up-his-ass finally got that stick out of that tight ass of his." Tina clapped her hands together, amused. Lei Fang felt like she was about to faint as the night of fun replayed over and over in her head. Tina slammed both her hands on the counter, startling Lei Fang. "I want to know exactly every little detail!" Tina demanded. She watched Lei Fang like a hawk while Lei Fang got herself comfortable on the seat next to her.
Lei Fang took a moment to remember everything. She told Tina how they reunited, about the fight, how he helped her, and how exactly one thing lead to the other that started their night of fun.
"Wow...Seriously Lei, you are just throwing better surprises to my boring life than my dad does for my birthdays" Tina joked. "So...How was it?"
Lei Fang paused. She felt embarrassed but Tina and her been friends for years. She told Tina everything. From the littlest secret to the darkest ones. Lei Fang softly smiled. "Jann was very sweet about it...He was hesitant at first, even asked a couple time if I was really ready. If I was okay with it...I was really stunned at how caring he was about the situation." Lei Fang laughed. She looked outside their kitchen window; resting her chin on the palm of her hand. "I never felt so safe...so happy to be in his arms. It was as if time froze... It was just me and Jann..."
Tina awed at her friend's confession. She was overwhelmed with the new information laid out in front of her. Her smile slowly disappeared. "...Lei Fang...what exactly is going on between you and Jann Lee now? are you guys...an item?" Curiosity really killed her. The last thing she wanted was to watched her best friend get hurt again. Just two days ago she was down and deep into thoughts; barely responding quickly or acknowledging anyone or anything. She leaned back on her chair, arm crossed waiting for Lei Fang's answer. Lei Fang smile grew bigger and her eyes was full of emotions between fear and love.
Tina couldn't keep her reaction in anymore. She jumped into joy as she hugged her best friend. Lei Fang was finally having the happiness that she longed for. "I can't believe it! You and Jann?! Thee Jann the dragon?! This is by far the biggest accomplishment to ever achieved! I mean that jackass is harder than the ice that sunk the titanic ship!" Tina laughed. "So how are we planning the wedding? Traditional or modern?"
Lei Fang blushed and waved her hand in dismissal. "Going a little too far Tina. Remember this is my first relationship in a long time." Tina groan.
"You're such a buzz kill. Can't I just planned a little? I always wanted to try out being a wedding designer" Tina noted. Lei Fang laughed as Tina shrugged.
"Most likely my wedding will be the traditional Chinese wedding , T. My parents had these dreams way before you ever came into my life." Lei Fang commented.
"Why did you say "my" wedding without the name "Jann" in it."
"Because I would be the crazy obsessed girlfriend to even think that far when I just completed the most difficult goal set on man kind"
"Right...So I guess stalking him while watching from the rocky cliff wasn't obsessive enough?" Tina jokingly reminded. Lei Fang blushed as she threw Tina's apple core at her. Tina laughed,catching the apple core and proceed to throwing it away in the trash can. Tina turned to her. "Really Lei, I'm happy for you. It's about damn time you found someone. I just didn't expect it to be him. But whatever floats your boat. Now the real question comes in!"
"The real...question?" Lei Fang raised an eyebrow.
"Was he what I expected him to be?" Tina asked, giving her a mischievous smile.
Lei Fang face turned brighter remember Tina's comment.
'I bet he's the wild, aggressive, heated kind; if you know what I mean!'
"At first no...But uh...we-well...I'll admit yeah he was actually..." Lei Fang confessed. Tina whistled long.
"Wow. I don't know if I'm surprised or impressed that you rolled like that, Lei." Tina bluntly said. She poured the cereal and milk in the bowl and handed to Lei Fang with a spoon. Lei Fang accepted her breakfast and stir it around slowly.
"It was painful at first but it felt..." Lei Fang lowered her voice almost to a whispered. She doesn't know why she was speaking quietly about it. Maybe she was scared someone would hear and tell the world. Tina held in her laugh at her friend's silly action. "It felt amazing. Not bad, or okay or good...it was...amazing"
Tina burst out laughing after Lei Fang finished. "You are too cute, Lei. We need to go out and celebrate!" Tina waved at her friend, more or less skipping back to her room. Lei Fang watched her friend disappeared before finishing her breakfast.
After he left Lei Fang's condo; he went to the gym for a couple of hours. He still had an hour left before work. He forgotten to call in last night due to a little encountered. Even though he didn't called in; Jann was always getting covered by Chang. Jann walked in the long hallway of his apartment. As much as he tried to show no emotions; he couldn't. He had a smirk playing on his face the whole ride home. Both his hand in his pocket as he reminisce last night .
"Well, Well, Well. Isn't it the hot blood Jann Lee" A female voice purred out. Jann looked up at the women. His smirk quickly changed to a frown. She was leaning against Chang's door. She had messy long black hair; her make up was a little smeared; most likely from a long night out. She wore a black low cut bodycon dress that snuggled her body perfectly. Her dark brown eyes met with his uncaring eyes. He doesn't even need to be closed to her to smell the alcohol around her. Jann scoffed at the women as he proceed to his apartment door.
"Awe...you forgotten about me already? It's been a year since we had our dirty, little fun" The women said seductively. Jann didn't know if he felt annoyed or disgusted. Most likely both. She casually walked up to Jann. "What's the matter, baby? Just because I had a little fun with your friend last night doesn't mean I'm not up to having some times with you." She playfully fingered her pointing finger around Jann's chest. She looked up at him lustfully. "I'm always up for a reminder of the night we had, Jann" She purred softly in his ear.
The women flinched as Jann snatched her hand and harshly pushed her away from him.
"Go. Away." Jann said harshly with a hint of annoyance. He placed the key in the keyhole, unlocking his apartment. The women was taken back at his reject. She never got rejected before. She always got the men every single time. Did she played her card wrong? Before the women could say anything; Jann slammed his apartment door, leaving the women outside. She huffed and stomped her way to the elevator.
He shook his head at the women. She got the nerved to seduced him after she slept with Chang? Jann didn't care if Chang got his sloppy seconds. She was nothing more but a mere whore. Most of the women he slept with was nothing but mere whores or just desperate women looking for attentions. He wasn't like Chang who would bring different ladies home left to right; but he wasn't innocent either. Nobody was innocent and there's no shame to having a little fun here and there. Jann shook his head as he made his way to the bathroom; getting ready for his shift.
The night was clear as day as the clubs and the bars building light started to shine brightly. Groups of friends swarm around the city as they were enjoying their night away from either club hopping, bar hopping or a simple dinner and karaoke night. The hottest club building in Hong Kong was vibrating from the beat of the music inside. The music played loudly through the entrance of the club. People were in line waiting anxiously to get in.
Only the riches of the rich was accepted in the club. As one bouncer scanned their ID; his partner was charging them before letting them go in for the night of drinking. Tina paid no attention to the snotty girls who was waiting ahead of them in the same line. They gave out couple of dirty glanced and proceed to whisper whatever the hell they were whispering about.
Tina didn't care. She wasn't going to let those snotty girls ruining her night with Lei Fang. They were finally going to have fun together. It's been months since they had a girl's night out. It's been months since she saw Lei Fang this happy and full of energy. This was the second club they had arrived. Tina was feeling great to be able to have an actual conversation with Lei Fang. Lei Fang would laughed at her jokes; she would smirk with Tina at the juicy information that they would bring up together. Tina loved having this kind of endless conversation with Lei Fang.
Without even looking; Tina gave the bouncer hers and Lei Fang's ID while she continuing her conversation with Lei Fang. After a good minute of waiting for their ID; Tina heard the bouncer cleared his throat loud enough to get their attention. Tina grunted at the rude bouncer as she turned to face him. She froze along with Lei Fang.
Jann Lee has his arm crossed; giving them a glared . He was waiting for their respond while watching Lei Fang awkwardly laughed and looking away and Tina nervously scratching her head. He tapped his finger on his arm making them feel like they've been caught by their parents sneaking out of their house to gone to a house party.
Tina let out her arm as she gave out her biggest smile. "Hey Jann! Long time no see! how are you?!" Tina said nervously. Lei Fang continue to ignore Jann glares.
"Care to explain yourself to why the both of you guys are here?" Jann asked coolly.
"A club is a club, chum! We're here to have a few drinks and dances." Tina answered truthfully. "It's not like anything bad going to happen." Jann scoffed at Tina. They both know that was a lie. There was at least one or two fight that goes on in that club. No matter how many bouncer they had; there was always enough fights to occur for all the bouncer to be occupied.
"I can see you going but dragging Lei..." Jann shook his head. "You're not going in." he bluntly finished as he handed their ID back.
"Oh c'mon, Jann!" Tina huffed. "Don't be such a stick-"
"Don't even finish that sentence" Jann sighed at the typical insult she throws. Tina rolled her eyes.
"Lei, tell your boyfriend to back off" Tina asked bluntly causing both Jann and Lei Fang cheeks turning red. Jann clear his throat; trying to covered his reaction. He was still getting used to that labelled. Chang raise an eyebrow in amusement.
"Boyfriend?" Chang questioned. Jann death glared at Chang only making the amused man chuckled. He continued to check the other people in line IDs and accepting their payments. "Never thought you roll like that, Jann"
Jann ignored Chang's comment. Jann wave his hand at them, dismissing them. Tina was about to give a piece of her mind to Jann until Lei Fang spoke.
"Jann, we're all grown adults. Just do your job and accept our IDs. We are the legal age to go in." Lei Fang said with an attitude. Jann wasn't liking this Lei Fang. He can tell she's trying to either challenge his authority or ticking him off.
"I said no." Jann Lee and Lei Fang stared down at each other. Tina took a step away from them. She didn't like to be near them when they throw down their stares. It usually ends with either Jann walking away or they fought and their fights usually caused a mass destruction.
"And why not?" Lei Fang challenged.
"This club is a place you should not be around. There are other clubs that are more suitable for you."
"And yet, you don't even say anything about me being in the dead or alive tournament." Lei Fang mumbled like a child. Jann eye twitched, feeling irritation at the remark and her rolling her eyes at him. Tina tried to stay out of their argument but she couldn't helped herself.
"She is kind of right ya know..." Tina commented. Jann was now very annoyed with the two women.
"Chang, watch them. Don't let them in." Jann demand. He quickly went inside the club. Chang nodded his head. He smirk at Tina and Lei Fang.
"You heard the man, ladies. As much as I want to see your pretty little asses shake; Jann is in charge tonight." Chang laughed; taking amusement out of the two women who was trying to figure out the next plan. Few minutes has passed and Jann finally came back out with another man wearing the similar clean white shirt that fitted perfectly on his lean body and slick black jeans.
"You got two choice." Jann stated as he stared down at them. "You can go in and be monitor by me or you can leave and go somewhere else."
"So pretty much get babysit by you or missed out on the hottest club which have a couple of guest celebrities inside the VIP? great." Tina spat out sarcastically. "Lei , I'm seriously hating your boyfriend even more."
Ignoring Tina's remarks ; Jann kept his focus on them. He continue to stand his ground. He was about to tell Jess he could go back to his monitoring inside until he saw Lei Fang grabbed Tina wrist and handing 6 100 bills to Chang. feeling defeated, they waited in front of the entrance; making sure to not be in the way of the other guest. Tina wanted to argue but she bit her tongue. Lei Fang avoid eye contact with Jann.
Feeling very satisfied with their choice, Jann nodded at Jess and Chang and went inside the club with Lei Fang and Tina.
"Lucky bastard." Jess said jealously. "I wish I got two bitches on the palm of my hand." Chang laughed at his co worker's comment.
"I wouldn't say that in front of Jann or his girlfriend" Chang responded without missing the flow of his job. Jess looked at him confused.
"Girlfriend? One of those hot ladies is his girl?"
"yeah and you know which one?"
Jess paused for a moment trying to think. "Well the blonde on got some nice rack both front and back. But the other one got that innocent look. Most likely with the Chinese girl."
"And what makes you so sure about that?"
"Oh, am I wrong? Innocent girl are always the wild one in bed. But that blonde girl already got some spunk in her. I wouldn't mind beating that ass from behind." Jess half joked. "Plus did you saw the way he looked at that Chinese chick? It's pretty obvious." Maybe he might get with Tina after his shift was over.
They looked in awed at the scene that played out in front of them. Even though Lei Fang lived in Hong Kong her whole life; she never been to the hottest clubs. Her friends were either too poor to afford or they were too scared. They heard countless of stories about how guys easily spike drinks without being notice; even when the women was very careful. There was always someone that had been kicked out, gone to jail or gone to the hospital. The bouncers were reckless and show no mercy.
Lei Fang didn't care. She wanted to go somewhere new and exciting. But she felt weird going to the club alone while people were either in groups or couples. Tina grabbed Lei Fang wrist as she leaded them to the bar. Jann swiftly follow behind while monitoring the club.
"Is it wrong to ask the bouncer to take a shot too?" Tina asked Jann.
"It's not out of the ordinary." Jann stated without taking his eyes out of his job.
"Good! Cause we are going to celebrate!"
Jann raised an eyebrow at the blonde women. Lei Fang face felt very warm as she elbow Tina.
"We are celebrating for...er..Finally renovating our condo!" Tina lied. She laughed nervously, quickly turning around to wave to the bartender for him to take her order. Jann Lee turned his attention to his blushing girlfriend.
'No doubt... she told that crazy friend of hers about our night.' Jann Thought. He gave her a dirty smirk, making Lei Fang turn even more red and making her panicked. He was enjoyed teasing her. This side of Lei Fang was very new to him and he's enjoying every ounce of it. She always showed him only the aggressive taunt, diss and tough women act. Sometime she would show the soft, bubbly side to him. But the nervous, shy Lei Fang was all but new to him. He never thought Lei Fang was the kind to be nervous. But then again, he did took her virginity.
He never took a women virginity before. He never took it slow either. She was different than every other women he slept with. She was more soft and passionate but at the same time, she wasn't afraid to try and take control. It was both exciting and different. He felt the rushed, the thrill, the hunger. He wanted more. If Tina wasn't there; he would of took her right there and now.
Jann snapped back from his dirty thoughts when Tina handed him a shot glass.
"Cheers to our new home and new life! Maybe new steps to take?" Tina teased the couple. Jann rolled his eyes.
'Yeah...she told her for sure.' His mind spoke in annoyance. They drunk their shots and took more. Jann of course refused those shots due to his shift still not being over yet.
Hours has passed and shots were pouring in left and right. Tina and Lei Fang made their way to the dance floor,dancing to the live performance of the top rappers who flew in to China making their marks in the club. They laughed, making their way to the bar stool after the song finished.
"That was so fun!" Lei Fang announced happily. She waved her hand to the bartender for another rounds of shot.
"It's been awhile since we let loose like that!" Tina said happily. They collided their shot glass together before slamming it down. The bartender poured another round. Before Lei Fang could slam it down; Jann Lee snatched the glass from her making her pout.
"Jannnn!" She whined. Jann glared at her. She rolled her eyes and tried to snatch her shot glass back only the stumbled into his arm.
"You can't even stand properly." Jann stated as he helped her back to her chair. He motion to the bartender to stop giving them more drinks. The bartender nodded out of respect for Jann and went to the other demanding customers.
"Stop being such a party pooper!" Tina whined herself. Jann sighed in irritation. Talking to Tina and Lei Fang together is like talking to two kids at the same time.
"Yeah, Jann! Let them have some fun! Hey Ken! pour four vodka shots for us!" Jess yelled out. The bartender looked between Jann and Jess unsure if he wanted to or not. Jess gave him a reassuring smile that he will handle Jann. Giving in, Ken poured four shots for them. "We're done with our shift. So loosen up. Let your girl and her hot friend have some fun."
"Yeah, Jann. Let Lei Fang and her hot friend have some fun" Tina taunted as she winked at Jess flirty. Jann felt disgusted with the comment and her flirting action to his co worker. He wanted to smack Jess behind his felt a pair of arms wrapped around his shoulder as Lei Fang rest her chin on his chest; giving him her puppy dog eyes.
"Please, Jann?" Lei Fang whined
"Seriously, Lei Fang?" Jann gave her a look. The same looking way a parent gave their child when they begged for something they already know they can't have. Getting ganged up only triggered Jann nerves even more. Jann was not known to be a sucker, nor was known to giving in for a women. But Lei Fang, Tina and Jess ganging up on him was annoying him to the max. He wanted to kick the girls out and beat some senses into Jess dick gaming mind. Jess gave him the look himself for not helping him out. "Whatever the hell you guys want to do; do whatever. But Lei Fang is done drinking."
"Okay, but at least let her finish her two shots." Tina tried to convinced.
"I said no." Jann responded harshly.
"Don't be just a pain in the ass, Jann. IF your girl can handle your cranky ass, then she can handle two silly drinks." Jess made a remarked comment.
"Yeah, Jann. Cause nobody could ever take that stick out of that ass of yours" Tina added while snickering.
They were really pushing his button. He sighed in defeat.
"No more shots after those two shots. She had enough." Jann felt Lei Fang quickly let go of him as she jumped in joy and slammed the two shots in front of her. Jann wasn't sure to be amused or shocked at Lei Fang's drinking tolerance.
"Never thought I would see the day that Jann is actually a softie." Jess teased. Jann smacked him behind his head. Now Jess is taking it too far. Jess, knowing Jann for years didn't get offended with his aggression. He was enjoying this new Jann. An hour ago Jann effortless and coldly knocked out five guys at once, carelessly kicked two drunken women out of the club and scared away two mob leader out of the club. Yes, it's that lively in the club. Which Jess understood why he didn't want Lei Fang in the club. Jess played his card right with Tina who was at the peak of drunk.
Lei Fang searched for her car key only to get that snatched from Jann and receiving a deadly glare as well.
"Don't make me regret letting you in the club , Lei." Jann spoke with a low tone; almost deadly. Lei Fang rolled her eyes as she placed both hand on his chest. Because of the very noticeable height difference; Lei Fang couldn't reached his shoulder without him leaning over to her.
"I am fineeee" Lei Fang slurred. "Tina can drive" Lei Fang drunkenly step back only to have Jann place his hand on her back; keeping her balanced. Lei Fang pointed at Tina only to blink a couple time watching Tina making out with Jess. "whoa... when did that happen?"
Jann wasn't sure himself but he already knew what was going to happened. He grabbed his unbalanced girlfriend and lead her to the elevator.
"Wa...wait, Jann! I can't leave Tina alone!" Lei Fang protest. She pushed him away only to almost tripped herself. Jann quickly grabbed her wrist and pulled her to him.
"Lei Fang, can you stop!" Jann raised his voice with irritation in placed. "Jess apartment is next to mines. Do you prefer to be in the same room as them?" Jann raised an eyebrow waiting for her to respond.
"No..."
"Then stop whining." Jann wrapped his arm around Lei Fang's waist once again and brought her by his side; heading to the elevator.
"Have fun Lei Lei!" Tina yelled out to the couple while wrapping her arms around Jess neck. Jess had his arms carelessly around Tina's waist as he playfully nibble on Tina's neck. She giggled out to his playful teasing. She winked at Lei Fang once she saw her best friend looked at her before the elevator door closed. Lei Fang face was crimson red.
