I had just locked up and left for home from a long day at work. Who ever said that being a psychologist was easy had to have been crazy. I don’t know what ever possessed me to become a psychologist. I should’ve become a teacher like my parents. Then I wouldn’t have to hear people complain all the time.
But I digress. Anyways, I was on my way home when I got home I had a message on my answering machine. It was from my best friend Jennifer saying she had a surprise for me and that I should get dressed in my cutest, no scratch that SEXIEST outfit, because she was taking me out for a night on the town. We live in Orlando, so there isn’t anything we couldn’t go do. There is a lot of nightclubs, and other such things to do on a Friday night.
Well I went into my bedroom and got changed out of my skirt suit. I put on my black silk thongs, my pair of black leather hipster pants and my “It’s Hard to Be Humble When You go to V.P.I [Virginia Tech]” shirt. Then I took out the spacer I had in my nose piercing and put in a cute diamond stud. Then I put in a pair of earrings that I got from Claire’s boutique in they had little spiked blue and hot pink balls on the bottoms of them and put them in my holes. In my second holes I put in a pair of diamond studs. Then I slipped on my favorite pair of combat boots. Then I grabbed my leather jacket as the doorbell rang.
“Coming,” I yelled.
I opened the door and there was Jennifer.
“Ready to go Moira?” Jennifer asked.
“Ready when you are,” I said.
“Let’s blow this popsicle stand.”
I locked the door to my house as we went out and we got in to Jennifer’s Yukon.
When we had been on the road for about 5 minutes I decided to ask the question that had been bothering me since I heard her message.
“Where are we going Jennifer?”
“It’s a surprise,” Jennifer said. “You’ll like where we’re going though.”
“You know I hate being kept in the dark Jennifer,” I said.
“Yeah,” Jennifer said. “But that’s the point of the surprise. It’s your 25th birthday. I don’t want to spoil the surprise that I have planned for you.”
Then about 10 minutes later we made it to one of the hottest clubs in Orlando, Tabu. I almost came on the spot. “You are THE BEST Jennifer,” I said. “I’ve been wanting to come here forever.”
“That’s why I brought you here,” Jennifer said. “And I’ve got a surprise for you when we get in there.”
I couldn’t think of what the surprise was. When we walked up to the bouncer he let us in no questions.
When we got into the club a man walked up to Jennifer and I and I recognized him right off the bat. It was the owner, Howie Dorough from the Backstreet Boys. I couldn’t believe what I was seeing.
“Hi Jennifer,” Howie said. “How are you girl?”
“I’m great Howie,” Jennifer said. “I’d like you to meet the guest of honor, Doctor Moira Green.”
“It’s a pleasure to finally meet you,” Howie said offering his hand. “Jennifer can’t stop raving about you.”
I placed my hand in his and he lightly brushed his lips over my knuckles. “Oh really? She has?” I asked giving Jennifer one of my many ‘You’re Gonna Die’ looks. “What has she told you?”
“That you were beautiful,” Howie said. “But she didn’t give you justice.”
