It's a crazy business getting paid to fuck. But at the moment I wouldn't want it any other way. Mostly white women who want to feel a black man inside them. I'm happy to oblige. They pay me well. A trick or two a week and I have enough bread to do what I want. I'm always careful to cover my tracks. Some want me back, but I don't want a steady white woman. I don't want some maniac husband or boyfriend coming after me. I can't believe how many good looking white girls are on the prowl most nights of the week looking for their fix of black cock. Lawyers, Bankers, College girls, you name them at some point it becomes an obsession. I don't exactly have a business but I do have some places where I hang out or can be found. Word gets around...
It's late on a Saturday night. Around midnight. LA is going crazy. I'm not on the street. I'm home in bed asleep. When I work I work hard. I don't need to be out there caught in the crossfire of one of the most dangerous cities in the world. No I don't. But a constant buzzing wakes me from my slumber. I sleep alone. I don't have a permanent partner. A guy in my line of business isn't up for emotional commitments. The cell phone keeps on buzzing. I look at the number recognising the caller. I don't believe in having contact names.
"Hi Johnny." I say. "It's late."
"Got an assignment for you."
"I don't need an assignment man. Look at the hour."
"Say what you will. This one will pay thousands."
"I've heard that before."
"Let's start out at ten thousand. It could go north from there."
I'm awake now. Anyone paying ten thousand is worthy of my attention although Johnny never knows or tells who has initiated the original call. That's the way it works.
"They'll send you one of those texts that automatically deletes once you've read it. If you agree to the assignment the text will arrive in the next couple of minutes. It'll have all the details."
I shower and put on fresh clothes. I know it will take me somewhere near an hour to get to the address in the text. Not the usual swanky Beverley Hills mansion but a hotel I've never heard of in downtown LA. Security I'm told will be out in force. The text tells me I have a password to use and some key words to say. I repeat them to myself on the drive up the Santa Monica Freeway. I have to get them in the right order. "1312. AI bot. No camera. No phone." They seem the most peculiar set of words that I will need to use to identify myself. Perhaps I had misread the text.
One a.m on the streets and there isn't much traffic around. Strange. Maybe its just this part of LA. Someone, I don't know who's expecting me, knows my car and directs me into an underground parking lot. It's empty except for a big limo sitting conspicuously in the middle of all the concrete. Two dudes hop out and stroll towards me. They're in no hurry.
"You packin' anything man?"
"No."
"Don't mind if we do a pat down then?"
"No"
"Sorry no cell phone allowed and they take my Samsung Galaxy. We'll hold it until you return."
I regard them with some suspicion. It may be the last time I ever see my phone.
"Car keys fine, we'll keep them too. Show us your watch." I hold my hand out. It's a common standard watch, nothing special about it. It isn't like one of those Apple jobs that you can speak to. Dick Tracy calling Jo Jitsu. But I don't think they'd get the reference.
"Leave the watch on your wrist man, it's OK."
I begin to use the password. I say "1312" but I don't get any further. They escort me to a basement elevator.
"Step in there slowly. Scanner around the door. Like at an airport you know."
"All clear." One of them says and they head back towards the limo."
"Top Floor. Press the express button." He throws over his shoulder.
Express button? The hotel looks to be about twelve storeys high. Old too. I've had plenty of time to think about this on the drive in but as I ride up in the elevator I remind myself for the hundredth time I don't know who I am meeting or who I'm looking for. There aren't the usual connections. I'm too old for this. I don't like a mystery. It can end up bad. Apart from Johnny who called me over an hour a go I haven't met or seen anyone I know. No one in the business. Usually I have a photo, something to match my hit with the person I'm meeting. The white girl who wants the big dick treatment. The elevator comes to a silent and smooth stop and the doors slide open on to the entire top floor. There's no one about. No music, no sound of television, no food on the table, no drinks. Nothing. Just the distant hum of a never sleeping Los Angeles.
I am however aware that I am being recorded by a security camera that has me in its gaze. There's an enormous set of windows. Through some buildings over the street I can see the lit sprawl of the City of Angels as it spills away into the distance. And that's when I see her. A tall woman leaning over the balcony. Her short skirt showing a set of legs that must be insured for millions. It looks like she has the remote to a television or something in one hand and she beckons to me with the other. I look around, a large lounge in the corner, a piano with its lid open, a set of steps up to a small stage. I'm not usually nervous but something has invaded me. The woman has slid a window door open to enter the room and as she walks towards me I stop moving. I can hardly believe what I am seeing. I can hardly believe who I am seeing.
"Hi I'm Taylor..."
"I didn't know..." I begin, but she chips in with a few well chosen words.
"I'll start again. Hi I'm Taylor Swift. We don't have a lot of time. Certainly not for small talk. An hour at best maybe. But you know what you're here for right?" She gives a deep throated laugh that sends shivers down my spine. "I need a good fuck."
Is this a dream? I'd heard of the Era's Tour. Wasn't she supposed to be gay?
"I love big black cocks you know. Did you bring yours?"
She gives me a look that indicates that I might not be what she was expecting. I don't know a lot about her. I don't really know her music, one song maybe that was on the radio years ago. I've got a pretty good idea that she's younger than me. Maybe ten years younger. I have grey in my temples. I'm not in prime shape these days. I mean I look after myself, but I don't work out the way I used to. I don't pump iron religiously. I run, I swim, eat good food, mainly lay off the booze but that's about it.
I know I'm not in control. She is calling all the moves, but then I'm guessing she's paying all the dollars. I wonder if the guys down in the basement knew who they were sending me up to. I wonder if anyone in this hotel even knows she is here. I wonder if... there is no point in wondering.
"I only have three rules."
Three rules? Huh? I keep my mouth shut.
