It had been a couple of months since I'd been to the club for that first time. Making my way inside again the memories came back, and I found myself smiling. After the last time, my first time really, I corrected myself, it was hard not to have fond memories not after what had happened.
But partly because of work, partly because I thought that coming often might make the experience less fun, I had kept away, at least until tonight. I paused inside the entrance immediately looked towards the stage which at that moment was quiet although people were sat down obviously waiting for something to start.
Instead like before I made my way towards the bar. Maybe that had brought luck last time, maybe not. Why ruin a good thing I told myself? I crossed the floor took a seat there and relaxed back just gazing around again taking in the atmosphere.
"Did you bring me to a strip club?" The voice beside me spoke up. I turned and grinned at them.
Tonight, after all I hadn't come alone. The last weekend had been Jack's birthday. They'd been out then with their girlfriend. Instead, I'd arranged to meet them today to have a guy's night out and what better way to spend it than here I'd thought to myself.
"No not a strip club. It might look it but really it isn't." I replied grinning at him. "It's an exclusive high-end club. Trust me this is something else entirely."
"Well, that's good." I almost heard the relief in his voice. "I don't think Emma would appreciate me spending a night at a strip club, birthday or not." He muttered slowly.
I just smiled after my last experience maybe it was best not to have expectations. Instead, we both ordered a drink and sat comfortable just catching up.
It had been a while since we'd had the chance we sat there just relaxing gossiping and enjoying the drink just a usual night out with friends. In that regard the club wasn't anything different to normal at least on the surface of course because after 30 minutes maybe I suddenly saw his eyes widen a little.
"What the fuck?" I heard him mutter. "That's Anne Hathaway, right there on the stage. What the hell is this place!?"
I heard the shock and surprise even as I turned to look trying to keep myself as casual as possible. "Huh does look like it doesn't it. Who would have guessed?" I shook my head. "To be honest I've only been here once before, so I don't know whether I really know enough to explain." I added which was entirely true at least to an extent.
"Oh, I don't know I remember that you fitted in quite well last time if memory serves me. I'm sure it was quite the experience. I mean it must have left an impression as you're back here again."
I heard that voice soft and low filled with warm amusement and whipped around to find an all too familiar face smiling at me. I felt a punch of pleasure in my guts an all to physical reaction at the sight of Kate Upton stood next to me again. We both just stood and stared a little smile on her lips no doubt recalling the last time we'd seen each other when she'd slipped away just after I had exploded across that gorgeous perfect body of hers.
Her eyes were still bright, a playful edge to them, mysterious mischievous it made me grin at her as I took in those tumbling blonde locks and the black dress that she wore this time that flashed a glimpse of that perfect cleavage I'd enjoyed so much last time around.
"Kate." I said simply just grinning as I looked at her. I'd wondered if we ever met again what it would feel like. Whether it would be awkward or whether we'd have regrets. She made all those disappear as she leaned in close and gave me a swift hug dipping down to brush her lips on my cheek in greeting.
That contact as brief as it was made my body suddenly pulse with pleasure, the scent of her perfume just tugging at me as I held her gently before she stepped back.
"We meet again." She added chuckling softly.
"We do indeed. Fortuitous." I replied smiling as well. "Do you want to join us?" I asked not wanting to tempt fate yet even as eager as I was to enjoy a repeat of the last time we'd met.
She looked around glanced at Jack sat there silently open mouthed and then just smiled and nodded. "Why not."
"Perfect!" I stood up grinning and offered her my seat instead taking one on the other side of her and then catching the attention of the waiter ordered Kate a drink as well. After I finished, I caught Jack looking at me again.
"You didn't tell me you knew Kate Upton!?" He called out.
I grinned at him, glanced at Kate. "Well, we met last time I was here. Kate was nice enough to show me around and explain how everything works, some of the rules and that." I explained slowly. "It was for a first night an absolute pleasure." I chuckled softly.
"Memorable if I recall, wasn't it?" Kate interrupted me with a laugh.
"It definitely was that. I'm still working on how to top it tonight." I smirked a little grinning at Kate again. She smiled knowingly.
"How's that going so far?" She asked.
"Well, it's looking better now than it did a few minutes ago. I've found my partner in crime again and she has some devilish ideas." I added.
"She does! Who is it!? maybe I need to compare notes and see where I'm going wrong. You know get some practice of my own in." Kate added and we both laughed sharing a mutual smile Kate's eyes full of mischief.
"How did you end up showing him around here?" Jack asked her. "I mean was it bribery? Pity?" He joked shaking his head as he looked between us both.
Kate turned her head towards him and flashed another wide smile. "Well, we did share a drink if I remember." She smirked a little looking at me from the corner of her eye. "But really he looked so lost here sat at the bar like he had no idea what he had gotten himself into. I decided to help out and say hello."
Jack snorted out a laugh. "I knew it had to be something like that."
"Well he did kind of look like you do every time you glance at the stage over there." Kate quipped back with another teasing smile.
Jack maybe reminded of his girlfriend or the fact that he had talked of strip clubs earlier flushed red.
"I told you Jack you're fine. It isn't a strip club Emma isn't going to mind." I added again half watching as he glanced at the stage again. "You don't have to take my word for it. Kate will agree." I turned towards her.
She chuckled softly. "He's right this place might be described as a lot of things but really it is just a club, everyone here is just enjoying a good night."
"A mind blowing one." I corrected her and she shot me another smile. I had an idea then. After our last encounter we had joked about whether it was ever beatable. Maybe, just maybe there was something that might do it. I glanced at her again curious.
Maybe she had already thought of it. She had more experience here than I did after all. There was no real certainty that she hadn't done something like it before either for that matter but remembering the fun I had enjoyed with her, and since she had come back, I rolled my shoulders and decided to take a chance.
"Heh Kate since this is Jack's first time, and since you did such a great job showing me last time how about you do the same for him. An introduction of sorts?" I asked softly turning my attention back to her.
She had a great poker face, she glanced back at me, and I couldn't read her at all. The whole-time nerves fluttered through my stomach as I wondered what she would say. One elegant eyebrow arched a little.
"Really?" She murmured.
