A/N: Yay time for the club and other stuff. This chapter is going to be a little shorter since it's just for one day. But then again a lot of its just dialogue, groping, and you know that sort of stuff. Thank you all for reviewing! I hope you like this chapter.
Paige: What do you mean groping?
Me: You'll see -evil smirk-
Alex, Ashley, Hazel, Paige, Deidra: Get him! -attacks-
Me: No!!!!!
Marco: -raises eyebrows- er…on with the story. -points down-
Chapter 3: Clubs, Bartenders, and Martinis
It had been a few weeks since Dylan had been in a coma. He still hadn't woken up. Marco's mother had to literally drag him home. She didn't see why he seemed to care as much as he did. The man broke her son's heart. She did feel bad but Marco needed to go to school.
Paige had slowly begun to spend less and less time at the hospital. Her little habit she had picked up decreased as well. Though some noticing her slightly thinner she didn't pay them any mind.
Tim still hadn't talked with Marco about that kiss they shared. Hell he hadn't told Jay a thing about it. He just had to figure out a good time to tell him.
Hazel sat at the table with the rest of them. Including Paige, Marco, Josh, Michelle, Spinner, Ellie, Jimmy, Craig, Ashley, and Manny. "You guys!" Hazel said to them. Trying to break the deafening silence that had seemed to envelop them all. "We are all going to go to this new club called 'The Strobe'!" She said rather energetically. "We could all use some fun and they are having an opening night on Saturday."
Alex made her way to the table and sat next to Paige. "What's happening on Saturday?"
"We are all going to 'The Strobe.'"
"I can't go…I have to work." Alex replied as she looked around at them.
Jimmy nodded and gave Hazel a kiss. She seemed to be more cheery these days.
Marco had brought Josh into their little inner circle and Josh brought along Michelle.
Spinner and Ellie were off in their own little romantic world. Both agreeing to go.
Michelle and Ashley had become fast friends. "So…the whole Craig thing. Good or bad?" Michelle questioned Ashley as they walked to class.
"How could you tell?"
"The way you looked at him. You were practically burning holes in his shirt."
"Oh…yeah…" She said as she stopped at her locker and pulled out some books.
----
Alex sat at the bar sipping on a glass of water. 'The Strobe' had yet to open and she was one of the new waitresses. Something had piqued her interest when she saw a girl walk in.
"Is the owner in?" She asked no one in particular.
"He's in his office can I help you?"
"Um yeah I'm Deidra I came to ask about a job as a waitress." She replied meekly.
"Follow me." Alex said with a slight chuckle as she motioned for her down a hallway. "How old are you anyway?"
"Why should I tell you? You're not the owner." She said in a rather cute voice. "Then again who cares?"
Alex only laughed. "Yeah true well he's in here." She said opening the door and walking back down the hallway.
Deidra stood in the rather large office. She noticed the black pearl polished desk and the love seat to her left. She admired some of the paintings on the walls and stopped when she looked at the man. He looked rather young to own a bar.
"May I help you?" The man replied as he looked up from a folder.
"Yes, I'm Deidra Samuels I called earlier about a job application."
"Well have a seat. My name is Jesse, Jesse Stefanovic." He replied as she shook her hand and she took a seat.
"Well your resume looks good and we are a little short handed so you can start tonight." He said to her.
"Really?! Oh My God Thank You Thank You Thank You!!!!!" Deidra replied with a glomp over the desk causing them both to fall on the floor.
Jesse only laughed it off as he sat up. "Well I hope you're this energetic when you work." He said with a smile.
Deidra sat on his lap and literally freaked out when she realized she had toppled them over. "I'm so sorry!" She stammered as she got up and helped him up as well.
"It's alright." Jesse said as he dusted himself off. "Go talk with Alex she'll show you what you'll be handling tonight."
With that Deidra left the room in a hurry. Quite embarrassed by her own behavior.
----
"Marcooooo!" Paige whined as she sat on his bed and looked over at him throwing random clothes out of his closet.
"No I'm not going!" He repeated for the tenth time that day.
"But you have to come! Moping about it won't help."
"Paige…."
"Marco just at least come for a little while please?"
"You know what fine... I'll stay for an hour that's it."
"Good now pick out something sexy to wear." She said with a grin as she stepped over and looked into his closet. "Ooo leather."
----
Josh had been thinking about what they would be doing at a club any way and how they would get in. They were obviously under age so if they did get in they couldn't drink.
"You think too much." A voice said from his doorway.
"Really says who?"
"Me."
"Shut up Michelle…"
"Aww besides did you pick out what your going to wear? That cutie Marco is going to be there and a couple of other people I know." She said as she filed her nails.
"Why are you all trying to fix me up with Marco?" Josh questioned rather annoyed. "If I like him then I'll decide on that but for now I wanna date girls!" Truth is Josh didn't really want to date another guy. For one he had to leave his boyfriend back home and dating another guy would seem sort of wrong.
"Fine baby brother." She said to him as she left.
"Jeeze get your own self a date instead of worrying about me!"
----
Deidra stood at the doorway to the club that was now opening. People started to pour in but the big guy at the door stopped them. "Get in line!" she shouted at them as she pulled out her trusty shiny blue ruler. She had bought it not too long ago as to match with her uniform. A short jean skirt, a light blue tank top, and a pair of blue converses. Her hazel eyes had an evil gleam to them as she eyed each new customer. She checked their ID's and if they were too young she would whack them with her ruler and send them away and if they persisted well the big guy could handle them.
"Well having fun Alex?" Jesse asked from the bar as he polished a few glasses.
"Yeah no drunken idiots have tried to hit on me yet!" She said over the loud music. "Is it alright if I go see if my friends have arrived yet?"
"No go ahead!"
Alex smiled and headed out the door. She knew Deidra probably wouldn't let them in so she had to make sure they came in with her.
Deidra gave Alex a questionable look when she came back outside. "Something wrong?"
"No, I'm just waiting for my friends."
"Oh okay!" She said with a determined look on her face.
"Like they are under age so I asked Jesse if they could come and he said yeah and you don't know them so."
"Oh ok, well go back inside! I know a student when I see one." She replied ushering Alex back inside. Her eyes then darted over to a group of ninth graders. "You've got to be kidding me." She muttered then eyed them. "Too young! Next!"
"What?! We are too old enough!" One said as he pulled out a fake ID.
"Eduardo Alonso?" Deidra questioned obviously annoyed. "You aren't even Hispanic you moron!" She said as she whacked him with her ruler. "Get out of the line or I'll have Bruno here make you."
Bruno cracked his knuckles and stalked over. "Trouble?"
In her eyes Bruno was this huge big scary guy. She watched the little boys shake their heads and rush off.
Paige stood in line clinging to Marco as to make sure he wouldn't escape. Especially not after she had dressed him either. She had picked him out a pair of tight leather pants, a black shirt that was buttoned up half way showing off his nice creamy skin, and a hat that she let him pick out. She herself picked out a pink top that showed her midriff and a pair of blue jeans with sparkles all over them. Everyone was behind them and they were a little shocked to find Alex and this other girl at the door.
"Come on in you guys!" Alex said as she opened the doors for them all.
----
Jay cradled Tim in his arms as they both watched whatever happened to be on the TV. They were at Tim's aunt's house. She told them that she would be home in about another week, which had relieved Tim greatly.
"What's wrong?" Jay asked as he looked down at him.
"Nothing…I'm just happy." Tim said as his eyes beamed with joy and he hugged Jay and pulled him closer. "My Aunt is much better and I have you."
Jay nodded and gave him a sly smile before planting a kiss on his lips.
Tim responded as well deepening the kiss. Within moments he found himself straddling Jay and kissing him passionately. Tim helped Jay out of his shirt and started to rub his hands over his chest and played with his nipples getting a moan out of Jay.
Jay easily slipped Tim's shirt off and turned the tables. He was over the other boy now. He kissed him hungrily as he parted his lips and asked for entrance. Being granted so both of their tongues danced around in each other's mouths. Jay could feel himself getting even more turned on. He picked up Tim and headed off for the bedroom. He always did like it in bed.

Paige had been hanging out with Alex the whole time and chatting with the bartender Jesse. He even offered her a martini, which she gladly took. She sipped on it as her finger played with the olive.
Alex only laughed and gave Paige a nudge as the beat of the dance music started to increase. "Come on!" She said as she dragged her away toward the dance floor.
Paige feeling a slight buzz from the martini gladly took part in some dancing. Both girls bumping and grinding with each other. Soon become the center of attention on the dance floor. Getting catcalls from the males whom cheered them on.
"Damn look at her go!" Hazel said as she looked over at Jimmy. "What's wrong love?" She asked as she took a seat on his lap and kissed his nose.
"Nothing…" Jimmy replied as he looked at her. "Just thinking."
"Come on loosen up." Hazel said to him as she picked up her drink and sipped it. She was starting to grow annoyed with Jimmy's behavior and decided to dance.
Paige found herself pulling Alex off the floor and towards a darker corner of the club. She placed a gentle kiss on Alex's lips.
"Paige?" Alex questioned a little shocked.
"Shh…" She murmured and moved closer to her.
Alex closed her eyes and pulled Paige into another kiss.
Paige complying and kissing back rather rough. Her tongue invaded every crevice in Alex's mouth it could possibly reach.
Alex pulled Paige closer and rubbed her hands up and down Paige's slender frame.
Paige gasped for air as she licked at Alex's neck. Her body started to quiver from the sudden attention she was getting. "Mmm…" She moaned out as Alex smoothed her hand over her breast and cupped it in her hand. Giving it a gentle squeeze.
Alex soon stopped and realized what they were doing.
Paige looked up rather annoyed and wondered why she'd stopped. "What?"
"Paige we can 't do this here." She said to her as she fixed her shirt.
"And why not?"
Alex then pointed to the gaping eyes that just so happened to be watching their girl on girl action.
Paige only glared at the fiends. "Well let's find somewhere a little more private shall we?"
Alex nodded and pulled Paige off into one of the backrooms of the club.
----
Josh looked over at Marco wondering what was wrong. "Not having fun?" He questioned.
Marco only shook his head. How could they be out having fun? He wasn't even sure what the hell was wrong with Paige. Her own brother in the hospital.
"Want to talk about it?" Josh asked with concern in his voice. He didn't know that Dylan was Marco's ex. He just knew he was in the hospital.
"We are all out here partying and stuff and Dylan's in the hospital in a coma!" Marco burst out as he just looked at Josh. "Marco…you can't beat yourself up over stuff like this." He said to him. "I mean from what I heard you visit him every day and try to spend the night but the nurse won't let you. I know you're a caring person but let it go. If Dylan could speak he would want you out enjoying your senior year."
"No he wouldn't!" Marco protested as he just stared at the brown liquid in his glass he didn't dare touch.
"Marco I mean why do you care so much? He was just one of your friends right?" Josh didn't know what ground he was stepping on but it obviously lit a fire in Marco.
"What the hell do you mean just a friend?!" He shouted over the loud music. "That was my boyfriend ok! And I care I can't help it if I care it's what I do dammit!" Marco choked out as he took the glass and gulped it down. The hot liquid burning his throat.
Josh looked a little stunned by his outburst. "Marco I didn't mean to…"
He cut him off. "Just fuck off." Marco said to him as he walked away. He didn't mean to yell at him like that just what he said really got to him.
Josh looked a little hurt as he watched Marco walk away. "Fine then." He muttered to himself as he ordered a bottle of water. Somebody had to drive home tonight sober.
----
Deidra finished her shift at the door and helped Jesse with orders at the bar. "Is it always gonna be like this?" She asked him as she took a tray full of dirty glasses and placed them in the dishwasher dancing to the beat as she did so.
"Yep." Was the only reply she received as she watched him fix up another drink.
She walked up to the newest customer and immediately glared at who it was. "What do you think you're doing?"
"What? I'm ordering a drink." Kenny replied with a smirk. "I'll take a Mixer." He said to her.
"ID please." She requested to him.
"Here." He said with a smug look as he placed it on the bar that showed he was over twenty-one.
Deidra went to reach for her ruler but sighed. She gave Jesse the order and went to another customer. She did not feel like dealing with a drunken roommate tonight. Nor the noises she suspected he and his blonde companion would make tonight.
----
Paige had Alex against the wall. Kissing her anywhere she could find skin. Apparently she was in a horny mood. Her hands all over the other girls body as she made out with her. She never felt so alive in a long time.
Alex wasn't sure what brought this on but she wasn't going to waste it. Her tongue collided with Paige's as she took hold of her ass. She was in heaven as the other girl nipped her collarbone.
Paige started to undo Alex shirt but was stopped by a hand.
"Paige not here." She said to her. They were not about to do this in a hallway inside of a bar. Something was obviously wrong. "Paige?"
Paige just stopped and looked at her. Her eyes lusting for more of Alex. Clearly no idea what she was doing.
"Paige?"
Paige then just collapsed on the floor in a heap. Her face was sweating profusely and she started to cry. Something was wrong with her. Her breathing worsened as she couldn't' think. Her head pounding.
"Paige!" Alex was starting to freak out. She helped the other girl up and studied her features. Some bastard had spiked her drink. With what she had no idea.
Paige only let out a laugh as she fell on Alex's shoulder.
Alex held the girl and dragged her into Jesse's office. Her expression changed quickly to worry as she quickly dialed 911 and asked for an ambulance. After giving them the address she helped up Paige's body and placed her on the couch. She didn't know what to do and started to freak out. She saw Paige's breathing getting slower and slower. She felt for a pulse and felt it but it felt so faint. "Dammit! I don't know what to do!" She screamed.
