PART TWENTY

(A.N: I do not own Chippendales or any of the dancers mentioned they own themselves and really do work for Chippendales.. =) )

As the girls soon found out Chippendales was basically a male strip joint. Except for the fact that it was tastefully done and you didn't get to see anything. I mean the farthest they went was the thong.

Each girl had seemed to pick out their favourites and that when Sage told them about the tip and kiss.

"What in the world is the tip and kiss?" Trish asked.

"It's just like it sounds. You put the tip in the guys shorts and he has to kiss you. The more generous you are sometimes the more generous the kiss. Some girls even bite." Sage said and then laughed at the expression on the other girls' faces. "Go Garrett." Sage cat called whistling. It seemed as thought just over half of the girls had picked out whom they liked most. Sage had chose Garrett Plante. Amy had chosen Matt Kennedy. Trish has chosen Jeff Beech. Lillian had chosen Mike Hammond. Hayley had chosen Jeff Kosinski. The other three ladies were just enjoying the show. (A.N: if any of you ladies, or men would like to check out these guy go to wait for it to load, click on the title thingy that says 'The Men' and once loaded on the right hand side (you may have to move the bar on the bottom) there is a list of ALL the Chippendales weather they are the travelling ones, the ones in Rio or whatever... just click on the name and there are pics that you can look at and you can leave a message!) It was now time for the kiss and tip. All the girls had put the thoughts of their significant others aside and had a good time. After the show was over Sage told the girls that they got to go backstage. The only reason being is that Sage new some people here from when she and her mother lived in Boston and she worked here. The guys knew they were coming as well. Sage led the way to the guys changing area before knocking. "Guys hope you're dressed, or not dressed for that matter." Sage called before opening the door. The guys were already dressed into simple clothes like jeans and sweats. Each girl had seemed to float of towards their favourite guy.

"So Garett last time I saw you, you said you'd like a career in law enforcement." Sage said.

"Yea definately, I mean when I'm done being a 'Chip' I definately wanna go into law enforcement." he smiled. (A.N: That is a true fact.) Sage smiled back at him as the two got a talking. As it turned out he was a WWE fan (may or not be true.. i made it up for the story) and he had seem Sage on the last three Raw episodes.

"Yea, the style so isn't me. I'd rather be in the ring kicking someone's ass but, you gotta start some where. But, the clothes are kinda comfy. I mean the first time I was on that was my first time in heels." Sage laughed.

"Really? Wow, you did pretty good." Garrett laughed with Sage.

"So Garrett how old are you?" Sage asked, "I mean we never really talked about age last time. I mean I was just helping out you guys and the club."

"25, you?" (A.N: I have no clue as to his b-day, he was 25 in late 2003 and I'm assuming his b-day hasen't passed)

"I'm turning 24 in a few weeks."

"That's cool."

In the end around 12:30 the girls decided they wanted to go to a club or something. So the guys suggested that they go clubbin' with them. The girls agreed and told the guys which hotel they were in. The guys said they'd be there at about 2:00. The girls agreed and left. On the car ride to the hotel Sage spoke up. "So did you guys like my suprise?"

"Hell ya!" The girls in the car agreed. Sage laughed as they arrived at the hotel. The girls didn't feel like going to their own rooms so they went to the one Amy, Trish and Sage had decided to split and borrowed clothes from the three girls. Each girl had chosen an outfit that was to their own specific taste with the exception that they had all chosen to wear a top that showed off their toned tummies. They chose their outfits and did each other's hair so it would be done quicker. They then did their own make-up and finished just in time so that they could meet the guys in the lobby. Once the girls got off the elevator they noticed the guys walking in.

"Perfect timing." Jeff ( Kosinski) laughed. The girls all smiled and linked arms with teh guys on the way out of the hotel. Little to their knowledge the girl's significant others were all on their way out of the hotel at the same time behind them. The girls were just about to exit the hotel with the 'Chips' (and dip..lol)when they heard a loud crash. The group ran back into the lobby to make sure everything was ok. That's when the girls saw their boyfriends, and/or spouses. The girls stopped dead in their tracks.

"And just where were you heading off in the middle of the night with a bunch of guys?" Matt asked for the group.

"Out." Sage said stepping up.

"No you girls will not!" Shane bellowed.

"You know what, why don't you guys go sit on your fucking finger and rotate. You don't own us and we're not gunna stay at the hotel because we were TOLD to." Gail piped up.

"Yea." The girls agreed.

"You know what, you guys can stay here at the hotel and be jackasses but, we're leaving." Amy replied. As the group headed back out the door.

The girls went out dancing with the guys. Though now they kind of felt guilty. But, it's not like they did anything wrong. I mean the farthest they'd gone was the kiss in the kiss and tip and that was only a peck. The girls didn't stay long. They felt too guilty. They had all felt bad but, Sage thought she felt the worst. 'What if I just ruined my chances with Randy?' Sage thought while dancing with Garrett.

"Sage." a voice pulled her out of her thoughts.

"Yea?" She questioned.

"You wanna just go outside and talk. I can tell somethings on your mind." Garrett smiled.

"Yea, sure." Sage agreed as the two walked out of the club.

"So who's the guy?" he questioned.

"Randy Orton." Sage told.

"Let me guess, you feel guilty."

"Yea but, we're not officailly dating or anything. I mean I'd be like the happiest girl on the planet if he asked me out but, I doubt he will."

"Why would you think that?"

"Well, at first when he asked me the first time, I was kinda scared of love from you know the stuff that happened when we lived in Boston. And then we started to hang out and do things more and more and eventually it started to feel as though I could let that all go. But, now I think I've lost my chance."

"Well, why don't you go back to the hotel and find him. I mean if he feels for you the way I think he does than he'll be more than willing to listen."

"Thanks Garrett, I think I might just take that advice. Could you give me a ride to the hotel after I tell the girls?" Sage asked.

"Yea, sure."

Sage then went inside and told the girls that she was leaving and that she was going back to the hotel. She then met Garrett back outside and he drove the two of them back to the hotel.

"Hey Sage," Garrett said just before Sage was about to get out of the car.

"Yea?" she questioned.

"Here." he said giving her a piece of paper with a phone number on it. When Sage looked at him confused he continued, "It's my cell, give me a call anytime you need to talk."

"Thanks I will." Sage smiled as she got out of the car and waved good-bye. Sage then entered the hotel and got into the elevator pressing the number for the third floor.

"324, 326, 328....334, 336, aha! 338." Sage smiled before getting butterflies. She faught through them and knocked. Randy soon opened the door. "Um, hi." sage said looking down at her feet.

"Hi." Randy greeted quietly.

"Can..can I come in?" Sage questioned.

"Um, yea sure." Randy said opening the door for Sage to enter.

"Randy, I'm sorry. But, I kinda feel like I should let you know that nothing happened. The guys were just a bunch of my old friends."

"Sage it's ok. Us guys acted like jealous jerks and well atleast I didn't have the right to." Randy started. 'I don't like where this is going.' Sage thought.
