------------------------------------------------------------------------------
They were on the beach practicing it for most of the bright day.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
They went from bar to bar. Than one took them in with their little routine.The Faithful Bride.
"Here is the deal, you do your routine a couple of times a night. You keep some of the money you make, but I get 25 of whatever you make. And when you arn't doing your lil dance you will be barmaids for a few shillings and you can clean up the bar when everyone leaves ."
"Hmmm, I don't know about this 25 thing, how about 15?" Alyse didn't like giving her money away, because she never did have much of it
"Its 25 or you can just be on you way!" he wasn't going to let them get all the money
"We'll take it!" Nicole didn't want to give up a paying job
"Fine then. You can start tonight."
"Ok." Nicole said
"Be ready in an hour or so. Tell the men over there with instruments to play you some songs so you can choose."
"Ok, thank you for this chance! We both really appreciate it!" Alyse was dragging Nicole away and over to the men
Once the man left Alyse spoke to Nicole "My god! Don't act so desperate!"
"Why not? We are!"
"But he didn't know that!"
"Fine sorry, but we have a job don't we?"
"Yea I guess, but he is gonna take some of our money."
"Get over it!" they reached the men "What songs to you fine gentlemen know?"
"Only a few."
"Could you play some for us? You will be playing a few times tonight."
"Fine." the men started to play some songs and Alyse and Nicole listened and decided on a select few
"Play those three tonight when we tell you to, that would be great!"
"Fine miss, for a price."
"You can get pay from the owner." Alyse didn't like how her money was getting divided up when she didn't have it yet
"Thats not how it works."
"Then inform me on how it works!"
"We play and you pay. Two shillings a song."
Nicole and Alyse looked at each other and then turned around to talk.
"What do you think Alyse?"
"I think this is crazy!"
"Its not like we can do this without some music! Its just three shillings each! Come on! They are good! We need them! PLEASE!!"
"Oh don't beg! Fine, fine." they turned back around
"So, what'ill it be?"
"You play we pay."
"Great!" they left the men sitting there, the night was approaching fast and men were already starting to pile in
"NEW GIRLS! GET OVER HERE!!" they walked over "Put on an apron and start taking orders, you can do the routine when there are more men in here." they did as they were told
"What would you gentlemen like to drink on this fine night?"
"Why don't you come sit right here so you can hear me better?" he patted his hand on his lap
"Sorry sir, just a barmaid. What will you like to drink?"
One of the other, younger men spoke "Just make it three rums."
"Right away!"
--At another table--
"What'da yall want ta drink?"
"Rum."
"How many?"
"Four."
"Alright." Alyse left and walked behind the bar to get the drinks and saw Nicole already there
"When do you wanna do the routine?"
"It a bit, luv. Are all the men behaving well?"
"No, not really, but I can take care of it."
"Ya sure?"
"Yes I am, but thanks."
"Anytime! Well gotta go get these drinks to the men before they start yellin."
"Me too." they both took their drinks to their tables on other sides of the place
"Here ya go men!" Nicole set the drinks by each man
"Bless ya soul miss!" one of the men Nicole was standing by pinched her behind
"That wasn't necessary!" she slapped his hand
"Sorry miss!" Nicole walked to another table and out of the corner of her eye saw Alyse at another table
"Gents, it might be to your benefit to be sticking around!" Alyse spoke to the men at that table
"Why would that be?"
"There will be a special treat for yall tonight!"
"What it be?"
"Stick around for a little while longer and you'll find out!"
"Ahhh, fine! Bring on some more rum while we wait."
"Be back in a few!"
Alyse walked to the bar and filled up some cups and that Nicole came up to her.
"Do you wanna do it soon?"
"How about after I give that table their drinks?"
"Sure, I will go tell the musicians." they both went their separate ways and then met back up at the bar
"I make an announcement."
"You do that Nicole." Nicole got on top of the bar and stood up
"Umm, excuse me!" no one heard her "HEY!" she yelled at the top of her lungs and sure got some attention that way "THANK YOU!! NOW TONIGHT WE HAVE A BIT OF A TREAT FOR YOU FINE MEN!! IF YOU ALL WOULD JUST KINDLY MOVE ALL OF YOUR GLASSES OFF THE BAR WE COULD BEGIN!!" than Alyse pulled herself up next to Nicole "You ready?" she whispered
"As ready as I'll ever be!" the band started to play and Nicole and Alyse walked back and forth on the bar for a while and then began
They started one of their routines on the bar. Perfectly the same. They danced all around. Having the most fun that they had had in a long time. They laughed and giggled. The men all hooted and hollered.(A/N idk what I was thinking about!! I had recently watched Coyote Ugly so sorry!!) Then the band stopped and so did Alyse and Nicole. The men went wild. Nicole and Alyse bowed and stepped down. Than got back to work. In a few minutes it was all back to normal. Men put shillings in their pockets and slapped their asses, they let it go because they were making money. They worked for most of the night as barmaids, but did their routine one more time. The men started to file out, dawn was approaching with small steps. The sun was starting to peak out. Nicole and Alyse plopped down in a chair and just sat there resting for a few minutes.
"That was amazing!" Nicole was so thrilled with how much they made
"I know! Wanna count the shillings?"
"I thought you would never ask!" Nicole emptied her pockets on to the rough wood table and Alyse did the same
"Wanna just keep it all together?"
"I wouldn't have it any other way! Ok, one, two, three, four, five......Ok lets just put them into piles of five."
"Works for me." both girls started to put each shilling into piles of five, it did work faster
"Five, ten, fifteen, twenty, twenty-five, thirty, thirty-five.........thirty-six!! I can't believe we made all of this!"
"Well now! Lookie here. I do believe that some of that would be mine!" their boss came up
"Thats right, 8 or 'em."
"I do believe it is 9, oh and don't forget to be cleaning this place up and then you can go." he took his pile and gave them back three shillings for their work
"I don't like that man!" Alyse was after him with her hands in fists
"Now Alyse, look at it this way we have thirty shillings!!! We have never had that much money!! Now lets clean and then we can go out and see what this place has to offer!" Nicole picked up a cup and Alyse gave a sigh and did the same
When they finally finished they walked out into the bright sunny day and Tortuga was a different place than last night. It was quiet, there wasn't men chasing women, there wasn't drunks everywhere. They decided to walk down to the beach and take a well need nap. When they were awoke they were both starving. They walked up and down the streets looking for somewhere decent. They found one that wasn't that bad. Ate, than left.
"Where to now luv?" Alyse wasn't sure what to do, Nicole looked Alyse up and down and than looked down at herself
"I do believe we need some new clothes."
"Oh come on!!! My clothes are fine!"
"Have you looked at yourself?!?"
"Well, no. But I think we look fine!"
"I think some dresses would make our little performance better! Now come on, we have the money!"
"Dresses? Oh God! Fine, but you are gonna have to do somethin I wanna do then!"
"Deal. Lets go, I saw a store down that way!" they headed down the street towards the store
Thats it for chap. 3!! Tell me if u like it!!
