Jake, Dave and John had been close friends since high school. Actually they were friends long before high school. Jake and Dave had known each other since forever and John became their friend when his parents moved into the neighborhood just before he started school.
The three boys were originally part of a much larger circle of friends, but in high school things slowly began to change. The change occurred when their friends began to gradually merge into the dating and party scene until it was just them... and Doreen. Then at the end of their Junior year Doreen left. She stopped by Jake's house to say goodbye. As usual, Dave and John were also there.
"I'm eighteen now," she said with a sad smile. "I figured it was time to come out to my parents." She grimaced and continued, "That didn't go over well. They kicked me out of the house. I've got an aunt in Chicago who said I can come live with her until I graduate high school. I guess I should have kept the closet door closed until I graduated."
The boys offered their condolences, but there wasn't anything they could do. After Doreen left, Jake said with a laugh, "Half the school thinks we're queer, too. They call us
The Three Amigos
and laugh behind our backs."
"I'm not attracted to guys," Dave said firmly. Then he shrugged and said, "I'm just not attracted to girls... as girls."
"I guess we are just attracted to each other," John said. Then he laughed and added, "... as
The Three Amigos
."
They finished their senior year and were all accepted to the big state university. Both John and Dave had other offers, but those other offers didn't include enough money so they both chose the state school where they would be better able to afford things. Freshman year, however, they soon realized that it was room and board that was really killing them. The scholarships they had been able to get were specifically for tuition and fees. That helped a lot but they still had to come up with money for the dorm and for the food service and for a thousand other things they hadn't thought about. After a semester of trying to scrape by on minimum wage part-time jobs, they rented a run-down furnished apartment together. There was a kitchen, living room, and three bedrooms. One was bigger and had a really big bed. The other two were really small and had regular single beds. They drew cards to decide who got the big bed and Jake won.
Living together settled into a routine that eventually led to them mutually realizing that they were a lot more than friends. One weekend, they were watching some weird movies-- as usual-- and drinking beer-- as usual. Actually, they were drinking a
LOT
of beer because John had won a decent-sized prize on a lottery scratch ticket and splurged for a couple of large pizzas and a refrigerator full of sixpacks. The next morning, they all woke up together in the big king-sized bed in Jake's front bedroom.
"Did we do what I think we did last night?" John asked, looking sheepishly at Dave and Jake.
"Do you mean fucking each other rather than just laying in our own beds and jacking off while thinking about each other?" Jake said with a smile.
"Then, yes," Dave continued, "we did what you think we did. He paused and asked, "Any regrets?"
"No," John said, "except maybe why didn't we do this a long time ago."
That afternoon, John, who was an art major, painted a sign for their apartment door. It was a caricature of each of them wearing huge black sombreros beneath the words, "The Three Amigos."
He explained, "I copied that from a poster for that weird Steve Martin movie from the 1980s."
"Think anyone is going to get upset?" asked Dave, "... cultural appropriation and all that?"
"We'll just tell them that we are an exotic dance team and that is our stage name," Jake said with a laugh.
John and Dave joined him in his laughter until John, suddenly became serious and said, "Wait a minute." He turned to the others with a smile and added, "That just might work."
"What might work?" Dave asked.
"Dancing!" John nearly yelled,
"We all have really good bodies," he continued. "And we can all dance really well... at least we can all move really well with the music." He stopped and looked back and forth between Jake and Dave before finishing with, "And we all
REALLY
need the money."
Dave raised his eyebrows and said, "Maybe you're right. Why should it be just the sorority chicks who can make some good extra money in the strip clubs?"
After a few silent moments, Jake, a theater major, said, "I know where I can get some hokey Amigo costumes. It will just be a matter of modifying them with breakaway seams."
And so was born,
The Three Amigos
club act.
Their first night was... well... a first night. They got appreciative whistles and catcalls from the half-drunken ladies present at the club as they danced provocatively around the stage. But they didn't get a lot of money in their g-strings, even after they had danced out around the tables. They were paid a little more than minimum wage, but the money was in the tips, even if they did have to give 10% back to Barney, the club owner, to "share with the other staff."
At the end of the night, Barney told them gruffly as he took his 10%, "Give it a month. If things don't improve I might have an idea for you."
Things didn't improve. Four weeks later, Barney called them into his office. "You guys are good," he began, "really good ... at dancing. But you can't fake it for the ladies. They just aren't connecting and paying out. I watched the audiences, though, and there were always a handful of guys that would have been pushing big bills down your cups if they weren't here with a date."
"So?" said Jake.
"I think you're at the wrong club," Barney said firmly. "I think you should be across town at the Purple Oyster. He laughed and said, "I run that one too." He paused and then said, "It's an openly gay and lesbian bar just outside the city limits. The only problem is that the acts that really pull in the dough there also have a heavy BDSM or pain component to their act."
"I see," said Dave softly.
"Give it a shot," Barney said. "Maybe you can pull in enough with just the dancing." He paused and then smiled and added, "But I'm a pretty good judge of people, and I think all three of you Amigos would be up for some bondage or pain play."
He handed them a card with the club's address on it and said, "If you show up next Friday night, I'll know I've got some new dancers." He laughed and said, "Keep the Three Amigos bit, that works. Just figure out how to add something more to the act."
The next week
