Ok this is just part 1. Thanks for the wonderful reviews, keep them coming :o) xxx Sorry in case you think this is another upload, I had to rectify some errors:)
"Wow Charlie, where are you heading?" Ruby glanced up from watching the television, when she heard Charlie's bedroom door open.
"Just heading into the city with Watson, Joey said she could get us into the club for free so, why not I guess?" Charlie shrugged down at her sister. "She's waiting outside, so I better go, I'll see you tomorrow, be good"
"Tomorrow? Go you Charls!" Ruby raised an eyebrow in her direction.
"Very funny Rubes, you know what I mean- you'll be asleep when I get home."
"Sure Charlie, you keep telling yourself that and someday you might believe it." Ruby hollered, but Charlie had already gone.
Charlie hopped into the passenger seat and Watson drove off. "Looking forward to tonight?" Charlie asked friendly looking across at Watson.
"You bet Senior" Watson winked across at Charlie, getting a proper look at her for the first time. Wait until she finds out… "This is too weird- you out of uniform and wearing a dress? Do my eyes deceive me?" she bellowed at Charlie.
Charlie blushed profusely "Ah, I can be a girly girl when I want to, it's nice to get out of heavy boots and pants with crotch space that any man would be proud to say he could fill."
"True, you'll have hard work keeping them off you tonight!" Watson stared straight ahead, focusing on her driving. She will really have trouble, drinks straight away I think, that will loosen her up.
"I don't know about that, but the last thing I need tonight is a man." Charlie sighed glancing out her window.
"Just as well" Watson whispered as they pulled into the street.
Charlie glimpsed at her peculiarly, but shrugged it off. I wonder if Joey is waiting?
As if reading her thoughts Watson interrupted "Will you ring Joey and tell her we're outside, I'm not getting in that queue." Watson nodded towards the stream of women inline outside Speedz.
Joey was wiping down the countertop when she felt her phone vibrate against her hip, Charlie. Joey dashed out from behind the bar and up the steps to the main entrance. She glanced up and down the street where she spotted Georgie waving at her. She smiled back at her and beckoned them to come up, I thought Charlie was coming? Joey's face instantly brightened when she seen Charlie strutting up the street behind Watson. Holy Fuck... Joey could feel her heart pummel in her chest, while she tried to maintain a customary facial expression. Joey turned her head upon hearing a loud wolf whistle, clearly aimed at Charlie. Charlie looked around awkwardly not sure where to put herself. Watson immediately noticed the glare settled on Joey's face.
"If looks could kill she'd be dead Jo" Watson muttered.
"Two minutes guys" Joey excused herself and moved over to the bouncer "Don't let her in tonight ok?" Joey ordered pointing to the lady who whistled at Charlie. "Thanks."
She walked back over to where Charlie and Watson were standing. "You look great" she looked at Charlie's never ending legs, gently shaking her head and smiling at them both "come on in" Joey pulled back the barrier and let them through, secretly making sure she could be last to get a proper gape at Charlie's behind. With each stride her buttocks flexed alternately beneath the fabric of her dress. No knickers line, must be a thong, Joey let her thoughts wander momentarily smirking to herself.
Charlie stood nervously clasping her bag in her hands; she raised one hand to wipe a stray piece of hair from her face.
"First drinks on me" Joey announced "What'll it be?" she glanced from Charlie to Watson and back.
"Two shots of vodka, definitely!" Watson declared.
They swallowed them in one gulp. Charlie grimaced as the liquid warmed its way down her chest, that's better.
"There doesn't seem to be many guys thankfully" Charlie smiled taking out her wallet to get herself and Watson another drink. Joey glared at Watson, but Watson only laughed.
"What's so funny?" Charlie enquired suspiciously pushing her money forward on the surface so Joey would get them another drink. She propped two more vodkas up in front of them, this time making them doubles.
"Drink them first" Watson ordered giggling as she drank her shots.
"Ugh... We need to get something different to vodka next time." Charlie shuddered as the taste engulfed her mouth. "Ok now fill me in what's going on?" Charlie asked confidently, the alcohol already pumping through her, I should have eaten a dinner tonight.
"Ok Charlie, well tonight is ladies night" Watson looked at her expectantly, waiting for a dramatic reaction.
"Ladies get in for free?" Charlie asked licking her lips gently, which didn't go unnoticed by Joey.
"No as in, a ladies only night?" Watson questioned more than stated.
"Oh…" Charlie answered, sitting back for a minute. She chuckled quietly as Watson and Joey exchanged glances.
"Georgie, are you gay?" Charlie asked simply.
"Well done Senior, you'll never make it to detective if it takes you that long to figure things out!" Watson jeered playfully punching Charlie in the arm.
"That's cool, and do you have a girlfriend?" Charlie enquired, genuinely interested.
"Nah, I'm playing the field at the moment, which is why I need to keep away from you." Watson pushed another shot glass towards Charlie. "If they see you beside me all night, nobody will come near me" Watson smiled kindly at her, gulping back her shot.
"Joey what the fuck was that?" Watson demanded her face contracting as the fowl taste hit the back of her throat.
"Secret recipe" Joey smiled, she had remained fairly silent until now, observing Charlie's reaction to Watson's sexuality.
Charlie grinned foolishly at Joey, her head getting lighter. "You've gorgeous eyes Joey" Charlie proclaimed "I noticed them the first time I met you in the Diner with Ruby. They're so… Captivating." Charlie turned her head sideways and continued to watch Joey. She blushed and turned away "Thanks Charlie." Watson eyed them suspiciously knowing full well Charlie was nicely on her way to getting smashed.
"Charlie your such a light weight, we've had what, a few shots and look at you" She laughed loudly at the grin plastered in Charlie's face.
"Charlie, this is only your third time ever being drunk isn't it?" Joey smiled at her, she's so innocent, her third time being drunk and she's an adult.
"WHAT?!" Watson shrieked "Charlie are you serious?" she was in complete shock.
"Yup" Charlie mumbled half embarrassed.
"So it's obviously in amazing company you get drunk, when were the other times?" Watson settled back against the counter ready to hear Charlie's account of things.
Charlie peered up at Joey, who smiled friendly in return "Ah, I was here not so long ago, got wasted after I ended it with Roman, Joey err… Brought me home"
"Well that's a fair enough reason, but what about that one other time?" Watson enquired, gesturing to the barman for another around of shots.
Joey watched Charlie intently, she had also enquired about this; but to no avail.
"Now that would be telling." Charlie sniggered, accepting yet again another shot being offered to her.
Watson was eyeing a small blonde on the dance floor; Joey caught her gawping and pushed her gently from behind the bar. "Go for it."
"Will I?" Watson beamed licking her lips jokingly.
Charlie looked over to the girl Watson was spying on, not her type but she was pretty. Did I just think not my type? It's being in here, that's all, but Charlie was too drunk to care.
"If you say so!" Watson stood up and fixed her top "Joey keep an eye on her will you; don't want any horny women getting their wicked way with our Senior Constable." Watson smiled at Joey as she walked off, leaving Charlie and Joey alone.
"You don't have to Joey, your working…" Charlie said playing with her shot glass.
"Yes but I'm boss tonight so I get to decide how much I work, if at all" She grinned as she moved out from behind the bar and sat down beside Charlie, bringing two large jagerbombers with her. Charlie gladly accepted one and shyly glanced at Joey.
"So, do you err, have a partner?" Charlie asked meekly.
Joey noticed how adorable Charlie was when she was shy. "If you mean do I have a girlfriend, I had, but I chucked her out recently."
Charlie immediately jumped into defence mode "Joey I hope you didn't think I was prying, I didn't mean to, I'm sorry."
"Charlie relax, I have no problem telling you anything." Joey reached across and rested her hand oh Charlie's lap, aware her thigh was bare. Joey signalled to the bar man for a triple vodka think I'm going to need this, screw work.
Charlie looked away, smiling into her glass. "Oh my god I love this song!" She smiled broadly and ran off to the dance floor as Agnes, Release Me filled the club, dragging Joey with her and began dancing fervidly. Joey laughed and joined in, enthralled with the movements Charlie was making; she was suggestively rubbing her hands up and down her body, running her long fingers through her hair singing with all her might. They danced for a few more songs as Charlie suddenly stopped and glanced around to see Watson and the blonde making out behind her. Charlie laughed and indicated to Joey what was humouring her. They giggled at the pair who were too absorbed in the moment to notice their onlookers.
"Charlie I'm parched, I'm going getting a drink." Joey shouted over the music, thinking Charlie would remain dancing, but she was wrong. Charlie followed Joey over to the bar and bought her a drink.
"Charlie I can get the drinks for free, there's no need to pay?" Joey panted still out of breath from the dancing.
"But shhhh" Charlie giggled fumbling with her wallet, leaning dependently on the counter for support.
"Hey mister bar man can I have two slippery nipples please? 'Cause mine aren't that slippery" she laughed hysterically at her own joke, and Joey doubled over. "Actually" she stated matter of factly "they really aren't slippery" she peered down her dress.
She moved closer, laughing to see if she could get a peek without Charlie noticing, better luck next time Jo!
The both sat down, Joey now too feeling the effects of the alcohol in her system; she knew she wasn't being very subtle with her glances at Charlie. So dreamy, look at her long eyelashes, never ending legs, gosh…
"Joey I am so fuckity fuck fucked" Charlie threw back her head momentarily then smiled softly at Joey.
"So" Joey dared "Are you going to tell me about your first time being drunk?" she raised her eyebrows in Charlie's direction.
"I'm supposing I won't remember this in the morning, so I think its ok to 'fess up. When I was in training, one night we all got utterly smashed" I shouldn't be saying this, but why don't I care? "I ended up getting with a girl form our group"
Joey stared at Charlie; mouth wide open. "Don't look at me like that" Charlie warned "Hence I never got drunk again until recently. Also… You're the first person I've told" Charlie smiled warmly at her.
"I thought you were completely straight?" Not out of the race yet, Joey reflected.
"Well you learn something new everyday." Charlie stated cheerily.
Joey looked at her fondly, you certainly do…
