Tara the Server
Tara and Zander pulled into a parking space behind the small apartment building. A few blocks from the college, it looked large enough to contain only 8 units. A short walk to campus and also about a 5 minute walk to the campus bars, the apartment was very strategically located. Zander exited the truck and grabbed Tara's bag from the back. Tara stepped out and walked to the front of the truck to wait for him.
"Ready, Tara?" Zander asked when he approached her.
Zander had told Tara everything she needed to know about the plans he had for the night. This was a huge step into her fantasies, so she was both extremely excited, but also extremely nervous. Everything she was expected to do tonight she had done for her master plenty of times, and she enjoyed it. But, to do it for a few strangers was nerve-wracking and yet strangely arousing. "Yes, Master," she replied, obediently.
Zander offered her his arm and she took it. Together, they walked across the parking lot to the door to the building. Once inside the building, Zander placed the bag on the floor, kneeled next to it and pulled Tara's mask from it.
"The guys are in the apartment on the other side of the building, so they couldn't see us walk up, but from here on, you'll need to wear your mask." He explained. She placed the Mardi gras mask on her face and took Zander's arm again.
They walked to the end of the hall, up the flight of steps, and then approached one of the doors. The number '7' was on the door. Zander reached up to knock, turned to his slave and said, "You're going to have fun, babe." She smiled from underneath the mask and steeled herself before someone came to answer the door.
The lock clicked, the handle turned, and the door swung open.
"Hey, Zander!" the man exclaimed after pulling the door open. "Great to see you, again!" He reached out to shake her master's hand. He then turned his gaze to Tara and said, "And you must be Miss Tara," while he extended his hand to her.
Tara fished her arm from Zander's and shook the man's hand, "Yes, Sir."
"Awesome! Please come in!" He said stepping back from the entrance. Tara slipped her hand under Zander's forearm and held him while he led her inside the apartment.
Once inside the apartment, Tara quickly looked around the room. The apartment looked quite new, but the furniture wasn't especially stylish. "Grad students..." She thought. But, the space was very clean. There was a couch pushed against the wall, an entertainment center, complete with every electronic device imaginable, was opposite the couch. Two recliners were pushed back in front of the windows to make room for the large poker table that had been set up in the middle of the room.
The room itself was fine, but it was the men in the room that made Tara's heart beat quickly in her chest. There were 5 men inside the room in addition to the man who let them in. A couple of them were sitting in the recliners, a couple more were setting things up on the table with the third standing with a drink in his hand.
"So, we're almost set up here," said the man who let them in. "We're all extremely excited to have you here," he said looking at Tara. She smiled as best as her nerves would let her. She kept a firm grip on Zander's arm as they talked.
"We're glad we could help," said Zander.
"This is my place, and I'm Adam. If you need anything or have any questions, please feel free to ask." Tara nodded. "I'll have you meet the guys in a second, but let me show you where everything is."
"Sure," Zander agreed.
Adam led them into the kitchen. The counter was full of snacks, cups, and other supplies. Adam opened the fridge and let her know where all the beer and mixers were. He told her where she could find napkins, towels, and even opened the cabinets in case she needed something different. Tara welcomed the distraction, so she concentrated on what Adam was telling her.
"Everything good?"
"I think so." Tara replied.
"Well, like I said, if I missed anything, or if you need anything I didn't show you, just let me know." Tara nodded.
Adam then led them back into the living room. The men who weren't standing when they came in were all standing now, eager to meet the 'entertainment' for the night. Tara stood between Zander and Adam as Adam introduced all the guys to the guests.
Tara barely heard the names. She wasn't going to need them right away. She just wanted to get a look at the guys who were going to be ogling her all night.
The men were varied in shapes and sizes. None of them had much in common, and none of them were what you would call 'model-like'. For some reason, that put Tara slightly at ease. They didn't really look like college students to Tara, but as grad students, they probably wouldn't. They were all dressed in casual clothes, mostly jeans and t-shirts, while a couple of guys had hoodies, one man wore khakis, while another had fashionable athletic pants on. None of them were overly tall, or overweight or anything like that. They were all pretty non-descript. It was just a room full of 'normal' guys.
As Adam introduced them all, they each shook Zander's and Tara's hand. They were all very polite and every one of them was smiling broadly. Other than their eyes taking slightly more liberty in looking over Tara's body, they all could have been friends meeting for dinner or something.
Once all the introductions were done, Adam asked Tara, "Have you ever played poker before?"
"No, I haven't." She responded.
"Oh, well, maybe we'll try to teach you a little later tonight." He told her. "But, here, let me show you the poker table."
Adam walked around the table to show her where things went, what to put where, and what things were prohibited on the playing area. The main table had a few smaller tables near it strategically placed between the seats where the guys could put their snacks if they wanted. Tara paid attention as well as she could despite her nervousness. Even though the guys were all nice, easy-going, and seemed 'normal', she was still pretty anxious about how the night was going to turn out.
Once Adam felt he had explained everything the best he could, he asked Tara if she had other questions.
"No, I don't think so," she answered.
"Okay, then. Well, we're about ready to get started, so if you want to go change, I'll show you where my bedroom and the bathroom are. You can change in either one, but you'll have more room in the bedroom."
"Okay."
