look! Another chapter. Its kinda short, but I couldn't make it any longer...sadly. But I still hope you enjoy it.
I walked down the empty street, the street lights illuminating piece by piece of the side walk. Looking back in the direction of my house, I regretted the way I left.
"I'm gonna go to sleep early Karen. Kevin, please don't mess with me." I said out the hallway. Once the door was closed, I stuffed some clothes under my blanket and hoped the lump looked like a person. The only way to sneak out, was through the window. I slipped out with my bag and closed back the window.
As I drew closer to the club, I began to feel nervous. What if I looked stupid? What if I saw some one I know? My mind buzzed and I didn't even realize that I was already there. The neon lights shined a bright red in the night sky. The low sound of music emitted from the building. I slipped in through the front doors like I had before. This time, however, the room had a line of people at the other door, waiting to walk in. The man was still standing at the door. This time, he was checking everyone as they walked in. He stopped a few younger looking guys and checked the for ID's before waving them in. After all of the people had walked in, he looked up and saw me. His eyes narrowed and his mouth turned into a deep frown.
"What the hell are you doing here kid?" He asked, taking a step forward.
"Uh-I'm working today."
"Yeah. I know. So why are you here? You should be in the back. Why didn't you take the back door?"
"I-I didn't know there was a back door."
"Of course there it, you idiot." He grabbed me by my collar and dragged me through the doors. The room, that was once empty, was full of people, smoke, and alcohol. He dragged me behind the bar and through a doorway. We were in a dark hallway, but he kept dragging me. We seemed to go almost all the way around the building before I saw another doorway. The man all but threw me through it and grimaced at the people in the room.
"Hey there Ernie! I see you brought the new guy. Did he give you any trouble?" One of the guys asked.
"Yeah. The dumb ass didn't know about the back door. You dumb fucks didn't tell him." He growled at the group.
"Oh shoot. I told you guys we forgot something. Oh well, better luck next time." One of the girls said sarcastically. Rick stepped forward and looked at me.
"Hey. Kid, why do you look so frightened. Shouldn't you be getting dressed?" It was as if I was in a daze. I nodded and looked around, but I didn't move from my spot.
"Hey! Kid!" Ernie snapped his fingers in my face to bring me back to reality. I shook my head in confusion and looked around. I hadn't even noticed that I was clutching my bag against my chest tightly. Everyone starred at me, their faces showing amusement.
"Um...where do I go to get changed." Rick laughed and raised a brow at me.
"Seriously? You do it here. We're strippers. What do you have to hide." I looked around the room, only to see everyone nodding in agreement. By then, Ernie had already left. No turning back. There was no way I could slide out of the club and run home now without being noticed. No matter how bad I wanted to.
"No way man! I have to change my underwear and stuff!" I refused.
"Fine. Just go behind that rack of clothes. We won't look."
"I can't guarantee that." One of the girls said. I froze and stared at her, my eyes wide in suspicion.
"Stop it Camille." Rick ordered. She shrugged, and looked down at her phone. For the first time since I had arrived, I noticed that they were all in stripper clothes. It was kinda weird to see them all dressed in such little clothes. I mean, I wont lie, I've seen plenty of naked women and shit. I'm a teen in case you've forgotten. But it was still weird. They motioned for me to hurry, and I ran behind the racks and began to frantically pull of articles of clothing. I peeked over the rack I was behind, to see where the others were. They were still sitting on the couches, but Camile was looking directly at me. She had a brow raised and a wicked grin on her face. My cheeks flushed as I ducked back down and finished putting my clothes on.
I stepped out from my hiding place, and stepped up to where everyone was. They all smiled and stood up to look at me better. They circled me like vultures as they took in every inch of the outfit, and my body, that they could.
"You look hot kid." Camile snickered.
"Yeah. Real sexy." Another one of the girls said. We stood there for a while before Rick clapped his hands and everyone turned to look at him.
"Okay girls. I know you want to poke and prod the new guy, but it's show time." The girls all nodded and turned to the curtain that lead to the stage. The low thump of a beat began to play and music filled the air as the walked out of the room. The sound of cheering and cat calls could be heard from my spot in the middle of the room. The next thing I knew, all of the men had surrounded me with a devilish grins on their faces.
"Okay new guy-"
"A-Actually...I'd prefer it if you called me Kenny instead of 'new guy'. I mean...that is my name and all." They stared at me with blank expressions as if they had to contemplate what I had just said.
"Okay Kenny." One of them finally spoke up. "I guess let's get down to business then." They began to show me moves that I should use on stage and show me different things people would ask for after the show. Like lap dances and stuff like that.
"Alright Kenny. I think you've learned enough for your first day. It's time that we go on now." Rick said, leaving me in the room as they all walked onto the stage. The girls didn't come back though. They stayed outside. I waited their, alone as I heard the low beat of the music. The quiet room made me nervous. I had no idea what I was doing. A stripper? How the hell did I get myself into this? My mind raced as I sat on the arm of a chair. Time flew by without me noticing. Before I knew it, the music dimmed and Rick spoke up.
"hey everybody. Um...tonight is a little different from usual nights." He began to say. I stood up and walked over to the curtain, my heart beating loudly. "We have this new guy here, and uh...today's his first day." Some women began to whistle and shout a bit. "Yeah...so without further introduction, here is our newest member. The Blonde Beast!" What an awful name. I took a deep breath before pushing through the curtains. The guys jumped off the stage and I stood there...alone. The music began to play again, and I jumped about the stage awkwardly. As if a switch turned on, once the beat dropped my movements began. I moved across the stage seductively, thrusting my hips about hypnotically. As I stood center-stage I began to tug at my vest, receiving cheers from the people on the ground. I removed the first article of clothing and tossed it behind me before moving my hand down to my pants. Some women whistled and I let a grin spread across my face.
"Take it off!" Someone shouted. In a swift motion I ripped the pants away, receiving a great roar from the audience. I moved the stage confidently. Even though on the inside, I was dying of embarrassment. My routine finally ended, but not soon enough. I felt as if the stares were going to bore holes into me if I stayed on stage. I quickly collected my dollar bills before rushing off of the stage. Camile stepped onto the stage, holding a mic.
"Alright now. Our shows are over. So you know what that means." Some people cheered as she gave a wicked grin. "It means...we are here for your...personal entertainment." People cheered again as she stepped off the stage and tossed the mic to the guy behind the bar. I stood there, unsure as to what I was supposed to do. One of the girls working at the club came up to me.
"you know...we're supposed to be walking around, waiting for people to ask for a lap dance or something." My eyes widened and I tensed up.
"Are you serious!?" I asked. She nodded and walked off. I stood there for a minute before stiffly walking around the chairs and tables of people. Women...and some men, asked for me to stop and dance for them. I had to accept and do so. It was extremely embarrassing, and I felt as if I would die. The night came to and end, but I wished it had come sooner. The good thing that came out of the night, was that I made a lot of money. I don't know how I did it, but I made a total of $147. It wasn't a great night for me, but the outcome was better than I thought it would've been. At the end of the night, everyone crowded around me and complimented my work. Which was...awkward, to say the least.
I changed back into my outfit from before and said goodbye to everyone. The night air was colder than before, somehow. I hurried home as fast as I could, not wanting to stay on the cold any longer. The houses on our street were all dark and quiet, it was an eerie feeling that made my stomach churn. It was a strange feeling that I liked. The quiet seemed to calm me somehow. My house was just as quiet as the others before it. No one was awake, which I was grateful for. I crept around to my window before pushing it open roughly. It squeaked, and I winced at the sound, waiting for someone to wake up and catch me. However, no one came. The sound of Kevin snoring filled our room as I slid in. He tossed in bed, but never woke up. I closed back the door and walked over to my bed. In an attempt to get comfortable, I peeled off my jeans and shirt before putting on a pair of shorts and falling onto my bed in a heap.
I let out a low sigh as I closed my eyes, allowing the thoughts of sleep to wash over my mind. However, I didn't fall asleep as quickly as I had wanted. It took my a while to actually doze off, but I thankfully did. That night, I slept harder than I had in a very long time.
So...that's the new chapter, and another one is coming up, with some more cute little Kebe moments. So cute :3
