My eighteenth birthday fell on a Wednesday. Turning eighteen did not give me many new rights where I lived, but just a short border hop away and I could finally sit down at a bar and get a drink. As seemed to be custom my friends had planned to celebrate my birthday with a night out. Unfortunately they could only manage a gathering on the weekend, leaving me three extra days before I could finally feel like an adult. The idea of waiting for these extra days was unbearable, so I decided I'd pay a visit to the nearby casino across the border for a warm up.
I squeezed my ample teen body into a dress I had left over from a previous formal event. A hot pink strapless number. It generously displayed my chest, forcing my breasts upward, the low cut giving anyone with wandering eye's a full on view of my youthful cleavage. The dress hugged tightly to my hips, enhancing the contours of my ass. The dress had sold itself when I saw in the mirror how round and perfect it made my butt look. The dress terminated just a few inches down my thighs. The short skirt put my long, slender legs on full display.
I was a short girl only just breaching the five foot mark, so I completed the look with a pair of black high heeled shoes. They featured a tremendous spike and gave me a full three precious inches. I have always taken very good care of my body, just pushing the scale into triple digits during my teen years.
My beauty did not stop at my neck. My beautiful head of blonde hair added to my rocking body. I had bright blue eyes that drew any man's attention.
I gave myself a final check in the mirror, making sure I had applied my make-up effectively, my outfit featured no incorrect wrinkles. I deemed everything to be in order, so I called a taxi to drive me into adulthood.
Making my way through the casino doors, I sat down at a blackjack table. Being that I wasn't a seasoned gambler I pushed forward only the minimum bet, a $5 chip. The dealer slid two cards in front of me. The one that was face up was a king. He reached over to flip the other, an ace. Not knowing the rules of the game I did not react.
"The young lady has 21 and we have a winner." The dealer said.
Yay I won. I could get a free drink with my new $5!
"Does the lady wish to play again?" The dealer asked.
Why not? Two drinks are better than one, I had won so quickly the first time. This game was easy!
I pushed another $5 chip forward. Even after giving the deck a good shuffle the dealer managed to give me the same cards.
"Another winner!" He said. "Let's see if we can make it three in a row?"
The way I saw it now I had nothing to lose. Even if he beat me, I could still go to the bar with the first $5. I put another chip down on the table. My new cards only reached twenty, however the dealer had a lower score. I had yet to fully understand the game, but I knew bigger was better!
"She wins again!" The dealer announced.
I clapped and squealed. I had to scrap and claw to earn a dollar at my job, and now I just made $15 in mere moments, this was exciting to me!
I didn't even give the dealer a chance to ask as I pushed fourth another chip I won again! I kept betting and I kept winning. I was getting really into the game and started placing larger and larger bets. I'd lose every few hands, but towards the end of the night I was up huge!
I got up from the table and found a station where I could cash in my earnings.
"You're leaving already?" I heard the dealer ask.
I turned around, "Thank you, I had a lot of fun playing, but it is getting pretty late now."
"The night is young darling, so many more winning hands to be dealt." He said.
"One more couldn't hurt I guess." I moved to retake my seat.
I received two aces, how was I supposed to win with such a low hand. "Hit me." I had learned some of the game's lingo during the night.
The dealer spun out another low card, "hit me." Another low card. "Again." This time a queen lay before me.
"Player busts, house wins." He said.
I was disappointed, I didn't want to go out on a losing note, so I asked for another play. I promptly lost again causing me to ask for another. I lost that one to. Before I knew it I had almost lost all the winnings I had gained earlier.
"Another game?" The dealer asked.
"I'm all out of cash." I frowned. "I really should go now."
"I can extend you a bit of credit if you want to play more?" The dealer offered.
I didn't like the idea of being in debt, but loved the ability to keep playing. The flip of a winning hand gave me such a rush, I just wanted to feel this one more time.
"$20?" I asked.
"That's a little low, normally our minimum for credit is more than double that, but I like you so $20 it is!" The dealer said as he tossed me a couple chips.
I threw one back in his direction. I managed to win the first two hands, this gave me the confidence to double my bet. My smile turned upside down, as I lost the next hand. Back to square one. I realized a few more victories, but lost the majority of the hands that followed. To cover these losses I had to take out much more credit than I could have ever dreamed of paying back and now I had little to show for it.
"I have to stop." I said, "I've lost too much. I have to think about how I can pay this back."
"Sorry, I hope you still enjoyed playing, here have this ticket." The dealer said offering me minor consolation.
The dealer gave me a coupon to get a free drink, so I left the table to find the nearest bar. I ordered up a cocktail and sat sipping my drink. I owed a good weeks pay by now. Obviously my Daddy could afford this, but I couldn't get him to come find me at a casino. Picking up his angel in a place like this would crush his soul. I had to think of a way I could pay this debt myself. I located a member of the casino staff who looked to be in charge, finishing my drink I started to traverse the floor in his direction.
"Excuse me sir." I said to get the man's attention. "I had a bit of a losing streak earlier, and I was hoping you might be able to help me out."
"How bad of a losing streak?" The man asked.
"Just a couple hundred." I said, trying to play off how large the debt was compared to what I could earn.
"Hmm, that is a little more serious than I can just make disappear, you will have to work something out with my boss to fix this." He said, he turned his head to speak into his walkie-talkie.
The conversation seemed to go fairly well.
"He is free now, just up those stairs is his office." He pointed.
I thanked the man for his help and took off in the direction of his finger. Reaching the top of the stairs I could see a large wooden door. A golden placard read the title "head of management". This must be the place. I tapped on the door three times with my fist. After my third knock I heard a voice tell me to come in.
I opened the door to see a heavy-set middle aged man puffing a cigar while he sat behind a desk.
"You must be the girl who owes us the money? Come have a seat well we figure out how to make that go away." His voice was very deep and raspy.
I walked forward and took a seat in the large chair opposite the man's desk.
"Now you lost a couple hundred at the tables?" The man puffed at his cigar.
"Yes sir, $200." I responded.
"And you can't think of anyway to get that cash tonight?" He went on.
