The dim lighting did little to cover the decrepit state of some of the stools and booths in the establishment my boyfriend brought me to. We weren't out on a date but we were there for his enjoyment. I found one of the least damaged stools and carefully held my skirt in place as I sat on it. I lifted my feet to the metal rim and glanced over as my boyfriend took a seat on the opposite side of the bar from me, just around the corner of the U shaped serving area. Then we waited.
It took hours for him to decide, and when he did I was both relieved and irritated it'd taken so long.
I rolled my eyes and pursed my lips. It was the sixth time that night a brave man wandered over to my side of the bar top--most of them drunk off their asses--and slurred their way through a pickup line that would've required me to be unconscious to fall for. He wasn't slurring, though. He'd been drinking for certain, but he was leaning on the bar, not using it to hold himself up.
I glanced over at the corner of the bar where my boyfriend,the handsome, tall, dark-haired and cocky young man, smiled and nodded, his eyes brightening as he leaned forward and called the bartender over to him.
I grimaced then cocked my eyebrow.
You sure?
I asked him without saying a word. His grin widened, almost to a young Jack Nicholson degree as he nodded slowly, subtly. My nose crinkled but I turned back to the guy supporting himself next to me. "Well aren't you a... charming... thing." My southern drawl was quite notable as I flipped my golden blonde hair over my bare shoulder and smiled at him.
It wasn't hard to understand why he'd approached me. My tight red corset top with little ruffly cap sleeves left little to the imagination; that I wasn't wearing a bra certainly added to my appeal, making it almost impossible for men to resist shooting their shot with me. Then there was the micro-mini black denim skirt and black suede thigh high boots with a sharp silver stiletto and red sole. I wasn't dressed like the typical barfly for an establishment like this. I was looking for trouble, and it seemed this older fella would be happy to provide.
I'd already turned down five young and quite attractive men. I think one might've been under the legally required twenty-one, but still held a beer in one hand as he draped the other around my shoulder before I shrugged it off. I wasn't generally fond of them touching me, so I don't know why I didn't gently redirect him as his fingers dangled over the bar. They moved a little lower and he lightly stroked his fingertips over my leg, just beneath the hem of my skirt. Maybe it was because he wasn't as drunk as the others had been.
The youngest of my attempted suitors was the easiest to reject, cute as he was. I just wasn't into younger men, even if they were only a year or two my junior. Besides, he might've been seen as genuine competition and that wasn't fun for Richie. No, my boyfriend always chose the same. The mid-forties, balding, overweight drunk who still wore his wedding band even though he'd probably been divorced for years.
I looked over the man beside me. Thinning hair, a bit of a gut, but not obscenely so, a softly rounded face. He wasn't quite as grotesque as the men Richie usually selected. I glanced around and noticed none of them were. Slim pickings it would seem.
Well, at least this one still had all of his teeth and didn't smell of body odor. A bit of a gut-rot whiskey scent, but otherwise he seemed fairly well kept, maybe even a bit charming when he stood there with a confidence that outpaced his looks. His fingers slid toward my inner thigh and I arched an eyebrow as I glanced down.
Maybe I'll actually enjoy it this time.
The man smiled and I tipped my head to the side as I observed him.
Okay, he has a nice smile.
"What brings a young thing like you..." Whatever came after that I tuned out, having heard it before so many times. But, I still smiled as he spoke, pretending to drink it in with glee. There were undoubtedly some comments on my looks, my blonde hair, my red lipstick, my bright green eyes. There always were. I was disappointed by the turn. I thought he might've been different in his approach.
I didn't have any fun with this part. The playful batting of my eyelashes, the swooning for lines that made my stomach roil, their self-deprecation, even the borderline rapey comments that amounted to "normally I'd have to force a girl like you to pay attention to me," had to be endured with a gentle laugh and flirty smile.
This was the part Richie enjoyed most, I think. He didn't get off on it, but he enjoyed it. Watching me lower myself, trying to keep the interest of a man who would never have a chance with me under normal circumstances. And I did, every goddamn time, because I loved him and it made him happy.
The fact that I was willing to degrade myself for him gave him pleasure. My degradation meant picking some sad fool to give a blowjob behind the bar. Near the dumpsters so I had to kneel in filth and trash in my expensive clothing. Disgusting. But he indulged me with my kinks, too, so once a month, I indulged this one.
My hand lay on top of the man's after he coaxed a genuine laugh from me. I don't remember what he said, butit surprised me. This guy wasn't like the others afterall. Sure, he was twice my age with a slight gut and thinning hair, but he also had the most beautiful sapphire blue eyes ringed with long dark eyelashes and deep smile lines. He laughed often and loud given those lines. I liked that.
"So, since you're still talking to me, I'm gonna ask the big question. What kind of rates are we talking here?" he asked.
My face twisted in confusion. "Sorry? Rates?"
He looked me over. "Yeah. I mean, a girl like you doesn't let a guy like me chat her up unless she's expecting to get paid."
My gaze shot back toward Richie, he was subtle in his observation, his eyes only lifting to us when he sipped his drink. "I'm not a prostitute, Peter." I glanced down at my outfit, my cheeks flushing red. "Though I certainly understand why you might think that. This isn't how I normally dress." And then I found myself confessing the intent behind my presence in his social space. "I dress like this for my boyfriend. When we go out, I mean."
"You have a boyfriend and you're letting me hit you up?" He grimaced a little.
"That's for him, too." I sighed and lifted my gaze to meet his. "I'm not fond of what excites him, but I like making him happy. And he likes watching me take older men behind a bar, give them a blowjob in the filth near the dumpsters, letting them... ejaculate on my face, then walking me home like that while calling me disgusting names."
He frowned. "If you don't like it, why do it?"
"Because it makes him happy. It's only once a month. And I do like giving blowjob, so that isn't a problem for me. It's the filth and the names that upset me." My voice cracked unexpectedly, and the older man, Peter, reached out and stroked my cheek.
"He's putting you at risk. What if a guy doesn't want a blowjob?"
I laughed and rolled my eyes. "Every guy wants a blowjob from me."
