"Shit, Taylor what am I going to do?" Gabriella panicked.
There was no way she was going to go out there and perform a show when the people who gave her a job at the school as a principle were sitting in the club tonight.
"Don't worry, you'll be fine." Taylor said as she looked around. She saw a mask that was all jeweled and glittered up with a feather on top and handed it to Gabriella.
"Put this on." Taylor said.
Gabriella placed the mask on her face to only be saddened that it only covered up the top half of her face.
"Taylor, my mouth is still showing." Gabriella panicked more.
"Chill, no one can just recognize someone by their mouth. You're fine, just go out there and do what you would normally do. But avoid those people because I know that they are sitting out there." Taylor said as she walked with Gabriella towards the stage but stayed behind the curtain.
"I wouldn't even know you were you at this moment." Taylor said trying to comfort her friend.
Gabriella was introduced on the stage by her stage name and looked at Taylor before walking out and beginning her show.
"Now I need a mask." Taylor said to herself.
Taylor walked back over to the area where she found Gabriella's mask and tried to find one of her own. Taylor spotted one that was the same as Gabriella's; it was just a different color. Taylor placed it on her face and looked in the mirror to make sure she was covered up before walking from behind the curtain and back to her bartending area.
Taylor watched Gabriella on stage and looked over in the crowd to find the school members sitting in the front row. Taylor grew nervous for her friend as she poured drinks for people. At the end of Gabriella's show, Taylor finally let out a breath. Taylor placed her head down on the table but quickly looked up when she heard a voice.
"Can I have a martini please?" Taylor looked up to see the CEO standing right in front of Taylor, asking her for a drink.
The CEO was named Lisa Banks. Taylor examined her outfit and noticed that she looked really different from how she does when she's outside of school. She was dressed like a stud and Taylor was curious but she didn't say anything. Taylor turned around to make the drink until she stopped when she heard Lisa's voice.
"What's your name? You look really beautiful tonight." Lisa said.
Was she hitting on Taylor? Taylor opened her mouth wide at the shocking discovery that her boss was gay. Lisa was not aware that she was talking to her employee.
"Call me Brittany." Taylor faked her voice and turned around as handed her boss her drink.
"Brittany you are very beautiful, have you ever been with a woman?" Lisa asked.
Taylor didn't know whether to tell the truth or to lie at this point but she figured why stop when you already started.
"No, I never have been with a woman." Taylor lied.
"You got a boyfriend, don't you?" Lisa asked.
Taylor laughed, "I do actually."
Taylor watched as Lisa looked Taylor up and down. She had to admit it though, Taylor was liking the way that Lisa looked tonight, but she knew she couldn't do anything. Lisa got up from her chair and reached in her pants pocket and pulled out two hundred dollars, and looking at Taylor's boobs.
"May I?" Lisa asked.
All Taylor cared about was the money; she couldn't wait to get the money. Taylor nodded and pushed her boobs out as Lisa put the money inside of Taylor's bra and smiled after getting a feel.
"I'll see you around Brittany." Lisa smiled before walking off with her drink.
As soon as Lisa disappeared Taylor let out a breath. Taylor and Gabriella continued working the rest of the night with their masks on. Taylor didn't take the mask off until she was at home with Chad.
"Baby, you will never believe what happened tonight." Taylor walked into Chad's room to see him looking over his play book.
"What happened?" Chad gave Taylor a kiss before she sat down on his bed in front of him.
Taylor relieved the whole night to Chad who at the end was laughing hysterically.
"Do you think this is funny?" Taylor got up.
"Baby I'm sorry but think about it. The CEO of the school, who is your boss just like Gabriella is, was flirting with you tonight. But she didn't know it was you." Chad continued to laugh but it soon died down when he seen the serious glare on Taylor's face.
"I'm sorry Brittany." Chad continued to laugh which made Taylor walk out of the room.
The next day Taylor was in her classroom around the time when all the students were at lunch when Gabriella and Chad walked in.
"Hey, how did it go last night?" Gabriella asked which made Chad start laughing again.
Gabriella gave a confused look to Chad as Taylor just rolled her eyes at him. Taylor was beginning to speak until there was a knock on her door. Taylor walked to her door to open it to see Lisa standing outside of her classroom. Taylor was shocked to see her only because she was dressed differently from last night.
"Dr. Banks, do come in." Taylor moved to the side to let Lisa in and Chad hid his face to keep from laughing.
"What is so funny?" Gabriella whispered to Chad.
"I'll tell you as soon as she leaves." Chad responded as he pointed at Lisa.
Lisa and Taylor walked over to Taylor's desk where Gabriella and Chad were. They spoke to her as Taylor sat behind her desk.
"How can I help you?" Taylor asked nervously.
"I wanted to tell you guys about the Christmas party that I'm hosting at my house in December and I wanted to invite all of you." She said.
"Can we bring dates?" Gabriella asked.
"Yes, I will have a date of my own hopefully." Dr. Banks responded with a smile as Taylor pushed her head down.
"Well thank you for the invite." Taylor got up to lead Lisa to the door and she left.
Taylor closed the door behind her and walked back over to her desk.
"Now what is going on?" Gabriella asked.
"Lisa was flirting with Brittany last night." Taylor said.
"There's a girl at the club named Brittany? Since when?" Gabriella was confused.
"No, I'm Brittany. Dr. Banks came over to my bar yesterday and was flirting me. The only reason why she didn't know who I was is because I was wearing a mask I found. She put money in my bra and everything." Taylor explained before Chad and Gabriella burst into tears from laughing so hard.
Taylor put her hands on her hips, "I don't find this funny. She's my boss you guys. I could lose my job if she found out."
"Taylor, she won't find out." Gabriella said.
"And how can you be so sure?" Taylor looked down at her friend.
"I don't know. I was just trying to make you feel better." Gabriella shrugged as Taylor groaned in frustration.
"I have to quit my job, that's all that is." Taylor said to her friends.
"Taylor, she probably won't even come back up to the club." Gabriella said.
Taylor nodded her head, "You're probably right, it was probably a one-time thing for her."
Taylor was back at the club that night; Gabriella didn't have to work so Taylor was alone that night. She was having a good time until she saw Lisa back at the club but this time she was checking out the strippers. Taylor took her mask out from under the bar and quickly slipped it on just in time as Lisa was heading towards the bar.
"You're back tonight." She greeted Taylor as she sat down in the stool in front of her.
"I never did get your name yesterday." Taylor said.
"Just call me Sunny." Lisa responded. "Does your boyfriend know that you work here?"
"Yes he does, does your girlfriend know that you're here looking at strippers and checking out bartenders?" Taylor asked. She learned that in order to not get busted, she had to keep it cool.
"I don't have a girlfriend." Lisa said, eyeing Taylor.
"I'm shocked." Taylor responded as she made a drink and handed it over to a customer.
"Why so shocked?" Lisa asked.
"You're an attractive woman, that's all." She responded.
Lisa smiled at Taylor's comment. Taylor and Lisa talked all the way until Taylor's shift ended.
"Well, it's time for me to go home." Taylor said as she walked from behind the bar and over to Lisa.
"Do you keep that mask on all the time?" Lisa asked.
"Just when I'm working here." Taylor responded.
"Why?"
"For protection, I have an image that needs to be protected." Taylor responded.
"I understand what you mean." Lisa responded. "Um, I know we don't know each other that very well but I was wondering if you would like to come to my Christmas party in December." Lisa handed Taylor a little card with her number on it and under it read Sunny.
"I'll have to think about it." Taylor said before she said her goodbyes to Lisa, well Sunny, and left.
Taylor walked to her car and screamed when she got in her car. "What the fuck? Why me?"
"She asked Brittany to go to her Christmas party last night." Taylor explained to Chad and Gabriella that next day in her classroom.
Their eyes widened with the look of fear for their loved one.
"Did you say yes?" Chad asked.
"No, I said I'd have to think about it. Guys, this is too much. It feels weird flirting with someone who isn't Chad." Taylor responded.
"Taylor what are you going to do?" Gabriella asked.
"That's it, I have to quit." Taylor said.
