Raymond walked through the club directly towards the strange woman he saw leaning against the bar. He thought she was strange because she looked like she didn't fit in with the other patrons of the place. Sure her head was bald and she had enough earrings to drive any metal detector crazy and her clothing was perfect for the place but it was her skin that he couldn't quite figure out. To call her skin color dark would have been an understatement but she certainly wasn't black it just had this weird quality in it's tone that he couldn't quite put his finger on. He had to meet her and find out more, he was definitely getting some tonight.
"So what are you drinking?" he asked sliding in neatly next to her.
"Wouldn't you like to know?" she answered without looking at him. Turning away with her back to face him she stalked away from the bar leaving the bartender confused with a drink in his hand. Raymond paid for it, took it and chased her down to a table on the far side of the dance floor. She sat down alone and lit a cigarette.
"You won't get rid of me that easily." He said smiling and placing the drink in front of her.
"Really? Guess I'll have to kill you then." She said humorlessly before blowing a cloud of smoke into the air. "Don't you have some hooker to harass?"
"Nah hookers cost too much and they aren't nearly as great a conversationalist as they pretend to be." Raymond took a chair right next to her and sat as closely as he could. She still didn't look at him.
"Why do I doubt that you're sitting here because you want a good conversation?"
"Because you take for some horny playboy who only wants sex."
"Why would I think that?" she asked scanning the floor for someone.
"How about I start asking the questions, what's your name?" he said looking around for whomever she was searching for.
"I don't feel like telling you. Why don't you do something to prove to me that you aren't just trying to get into my pants?"
"Like what?" Raymond asked. The woman took a drag of her cigarette and turned to face him for the first time slowly blowing the smoke in his face. When the cloud finally cleared she was looking him straight in the eye.
Raymond's blood ran cold and he quickly wished he had found someone else to talk to. This girl's eyes were piercing and looked into his as if she was staring right into his soul, not only that but her irises were white and her pupils were nothing more than black slits that ran vertically across her eye.
"What's the matter? Mister suave and smooth suddenly doesn't have anything to say?" she asked after a long pause. He hadn't realized he was staring at her.
"I'm sorry. I won't bother you anymore." He got up to leave and she stopped him.
"Wow, did I just sense some manners? There might be hope for you after all, sit." She took a sip of her drink as he sat back down.
"I'm sorry but I just couldn't help but notice...how beautiful you are." He started over.
"You're a shitty liar." She took another drag of the cigarette and studied him closely before slowly allowing the smoke to escape her lips of it's own accord. "You saw my, let's just call them 'irregularities' and just had to come over and learn more about me am I right?"
"You got me there and I'm afraid you have me at a disadvantage." He confessed.
She smiled for the first time since meeting him. "Good."
For a few songs they said nothing to each other Raymond suddenly feeling he was in over his head. This woman had sized him up quickly and was nothing like anyone he had ever met, he wasn't sure whether to be intrigued, or frightened. During a long break between songs while the D.J. was introducing some band she mashed out her cigarette, downed the last of her drink and stood up to leave.
"Come on, this isn't the best place to get to know one another if you know what I mean." She motioned for him to follow and he obliged taking her hand in his and trying to lead her into the parking lot. Once outside she took the lead and walked over to a very expensive sport's car that Raymond had never seen before.
"Don't sweat the car, I borrowed it thinking it would get me laid. Hasn't worked yet." She told him standing next to the driver's side door. Underneath the moonlight Raymond could see her skin much clearer and what had been bugging him about it's color. Instead of the dark brown ebony of African Americans this woman had dark gray skin, so dark as to almost perfectly black.
"Wow." Was all he could think to say.
"Easier to see out here, I love black light because underneath that my skin almost looks normal, almost but not quite. Course you already saw that didn't you?" she was now sitting on the long sloping hood of the car with her arms crossed in front of her and her legs spread just about shoulder width apart. Her mini skirt was so short he could almost see up it.
"Funny thing is it's more intriguing than freaky. I like it." He said moving closer. Taking a few quick looks around he noticed that they were all alone in the parking lot.
"I don't know why but all you guys love my freakish skin and eyes, you can't get enough." She placed her hands on his chest and started to push him back but he resisted taking her hands in his. He was mesmerized by her beauty and had to have her right here and now.
"Damn you're beautiful, I can't get over it."
"Easy there hot rod." She said angrily pushing him harder. "I didn't say you could fuck me."
"I didn't ask now did I?" he said shoving her onto the car. She gasped when her back flattened out against the hard metal of the hood and Raymond wasted no time pulling her panties off and hiking her skirt up over her waist.
