Chapter six
Her soft lips pressed smoothly against his and their mouths came open enough for their tongues to meet. He held her close to him as they stood there swaying, making their own rhythm to the music that was playing in the background. Gazing into her eyes, he smiled as he caught the heightened sparkle in them.
"Katie it's so nice to have you by yourself for once." He said softly with a slight grin
"Funny, I was just thinking the exact same thing about you."
Bam gave her another kiss before he heard someone call his name. He looked over his shoulder to see whose voice it was.
"What do you want, Jord, I'm busy right now." He said before kissing Katie on the neck
"We're going to play your favorite drinking game. Come on bring Katie over here too."
Bam looked at Katie and then at Jord "If you insist." He laughed
Bam took Katie by the hand and walked her over to a group pf people and they all began to play a drinking game. After the game was over, it was time for the rest of the party guests to go home. Bam stood by the door saying goodbye to the people that were going out the door as if he was the party's host. He pulled Mere and Jessica aside as they came up to the door and gave them each a nice, long goodbye kiss.
"So nice to see you again." He said to each girl after kissing her, and before patting her on the butt and sending them on their way out the door
Once everyone else was out the door, Hellen brought over Bam's black sweatshirt and handed it to him, along with his sunglasses that he has carelessly left somewhere.
"So Bam Bam, did you really enjoy yourself tonight?"
"Yeah, it was one of your best parties in a while."
"It certainly seems that way." She smiled
"You know, Hellen," He said as he pulled his sweatshirt on "It's dark out there and I'm going to have a lonely walk to my car."
"Yeah? You inviting me to come along with you?"
"If you want."
"I guess I could go for a little walk."
They stepped out onto the porch and Hellen closed the door. Bam stepped down onto the bottom step and Hellen hopped up onto his shoulders. He moved quickly down the dark sidewalk with Hellen laughing on top of his shoulders, all the way to his parked car. His car was the only car parked in the parking lot when they reached it.
Bam bent down so Hellen could nicely slide down from his shoulders and then he unlocked his car.
"Ladies first." He said
"Why Bam Bam, you chivalrous prince."
Hellen crawled into the car and Bam got in on the other side. The two of them became settled once the doors were closed and then they started talking. They became more and more relaxed and cozy as they conversed. Soon they had moved to a more comfortable, lazy position with Bam reclining and Hellen resting her head in Bam's lap.
"I saved the best for last." Bam smiled down at her as he ran his hand over her arm
"What do you mean?"
"You, I saved you for last. I've been meaning to spend this time with you alone for a while now, but I've never got a chance to do it until now."
"Oh I see."
"Too bad we don't get to see each other more than once a month. I'd really like for you to meet all of my friends."
"Yeah that would be nice. Especially seeing each other out of our party clothes so to speak. I've heard some nice things about your other friends."
"They haven't heard about you though. They don't even know that you exist. I know they'd like you though."
"A lot of people do."
"Of course Novak would be all over you as soon as you set foot in the door." He laughed and then went into the voice he uses when he makes fun of Novak "Hey babe, why don't you come up to my room and I can fuck you every which way but Sunday? Wait, do you skate? 'Cause I won't want to be with you if you do. I just want my women to just lie there and look good." They both laughed
"Yeah… I really don't think he would be interested in me if we met."
"What do you mean? You're beautiful and…"
"He'd hang out with me, but other than that he wouldn't even notice me if I showed up in my every day clothes."
"Don't put yourself down like that."
"Bam Bam you've only seen me at these parties and I'm always wearing heavy makeup and some sort of costume like this." She tugged at her dress and sat up
"Well I'm interested in you." He leaned in close to give her a kiss but she stretched her hand out in front of him to block him
Her voice, when she spoke, was a little lower and a lot less feminine "Bam Bam I'm a transvestite."
"Are you fucking serious?" Bam asked, his voice cracking
"That's right baby. I can't believe you didn't know all ready."
Bam's mouth dropped open and he stared at the floor of the car. He was in a state of complete shock and felt utterly betrayed. He didn't look up once a kind hand was placed on his shoulder.
"Bam Bam relax. I really thought that you knew. I'm terribly sorry."
Bam tried to speak but nothing came out. He shook his head and felt like some one punched him in the stomach.
"I… I can't believe this… I…" He stammered a little on his words
"Hellen" reached up and pulled his wig off, revealing short, dirty blonde hair. He then ran his hand through his hair to comb it out "Bam Bam I really am sorry that you had to find out this way."
"After all these years that I've known you, you'd think that I'd catch on but… How could I not know?"
"Hellen" shrugged his shoulders "I don't know. I actually just assumed that you figured it out like the rest of them did. But I guess I'm better at playing a woman than I thought. Must be the fact that I've always been small and had sort of feminine features. You… you ok Bam Bam?"
Bam took a deep breath and let it out "Yeah… it's just a lot to take in right now."
"Oh," He looked down "Then maybe I shouldn't tell you that quite a bit of us at these parties are transvestites as well."
Bam looked up at him suddenly "Wh-what do you mean… who else is a…" He shook his head in disbelief "No maybe I don't want to know." He paused and looked at "Hellen" again in concern "Is… I mean Sandra isn't one is she?"
"A transvestite? No."
Bam sighed in relief "Good then she's a real woman then."
"Well… let's just say "Sandra" became a real woman a couple years ago after the operation."
Bam choked a little bit. If he were drinking at that moment he would have done one hell of a spit take. He held his stomach suddenly having the feeling like he was going to be sick.
"Oh God… I… I can't believe all of this. It's… it's too much. I…" He closed his eyes and felt himself turning green. "Hellen" placed a hand on Bam's back for comfort and Bam tore open the car door.
After a minute or so of vomiting, Bam closed the car door and leaned his head back against the headrest of his seat. He closed his eyes tight, trying to forget everything that he was just told.
"Bam Bam are you going to be ok now?" Bam slowly nodded his head "Well if you don't mind, I'll just be going back to my house now. I really do feel bad for this, and I hope that we can still be friends."
"Yeah fine… I… it'll take some time to get used to it. But um… I'll still be around here every month."
"Ok then." "Hellen" picked up his wig and opened the car door. Before shutting it as he stood outside the car, he peeked his head back in and looked at bam "Please do feel better Bam Bam. I'll see you next month."
"Yeah… next month. Maybe I'll be over this by then." He grinned weakly
"Ok well… see you next time Bam Bam." He closed the door and began to walk away
Bam scooted over to the driver's seat and placed the key in the ignition. Before he started the car he tried to let all of the lies and deception wash over him. These parties were so dear to his heart, and even with the new found deceptions in his friends, he was still glad to keep this his dirty little secret.
