Blind Date Confessions.
Past sins outed on my blind date.
A warm Saturday morning standing outside the Kelvin Hall waiting to be picked up by my workmate Billy, he had arranged a blind date for me, despite asking wouldn't give me any details; intriguing.
We had known each other over five years starting out as apprentice engineers now just finished our second overseas project together as setting to work engineers. Last night on the flight home from Nice told me.
"I have arranged a blind date for you tomorrow, my partner has a business friend visiting from London and they want to take us out for lunch."
I was stag that weekend and on leave next week at a loose end said "ok."
As I waited pedestrians bumped into me jockeying for position in the crowd, a text came in from Billy they would be with me in three minutes in a red Jaguar I-Pace, we were both into cars, he had a fabulous butch black pick up with oversized wheels and roll bars.
I saw a distinctively red Jag move into towards me effectively blocking the inside lane as they approached to pick me up. Billy in the front passenger seat waved me to get into the seat behind him. Jumped in; inside the Jag was top of the range with a massive arm rest separating the two rear deep leather bucket seats and it had rear blacked out privacy windows.
No sooner had I got in, the Jag gunned itself back into the traffic quickly joining the motorway slip road traffic. By the time I had clipped my belt in we were heading onto the motorway. Billy introduced the driver, Billy's partner Oscar, sitting in the back beside me separated by the armrest was Theo. It took a few moments for the penny to drop, as I rethought it, were Billy and Oscar an item I had never thought of Billy being gay, meaning Theo too maybe.
As we headed onto the motorway, choice of two motorways and two off ramps to choose from, Oscar jockeyed into the correct lane, once settled down put his hand down on the drive selector consul other on the steering wheel, poser style like I often did. Relaxed Billy put his hand on top of Oscar's, gay doubts gone thinking what the fuck have I let myself in for.
Seeing this Theo looked at me and smiled. I was unsure what his smile meant, I was gay too and we would have fun together later or here and now in the back with it's blacked out windows. Not wanting to provoke anything it was just a meal at a Hotel. I chatted with Theo about the project Billy and I were on in southern France, not far from Nice. He explained he was a financial deal broker bringing money and opportunities together, Oscar was looking for finance to expand his 'Prestige Cars' business, that I was thinking off buying a car like this from.
Although traffic wasn't heavy wasn't fast either, we stopped halfway at a cafΓ© called 'The Smithy' right at the bottom end of Prestwick Airports main runway. As we parked up were overflown by a large gray heavy military transport, we could see it's landing wheels spin up as it passed less than thirty feet above the Jag's roof almost leaving it's tyre marks on the roof.
Billy and Oscar on the context of getting us all a coffee got out more likely to return one of the many phone call's we heard coming in. To bring the Genie out of the bottle after they left I asked Theo.
"Why I am here?"
"Oscar wants to borrow five million to double the size of his business, I think it's only worth a four million investment, you might be a loan incentive."
With a smirk asked. "Have you done anything like this before?"
I knew what he meant, plying his game I blurted out.
"As a student I had a bar job working in a Club. When I applied on-line asked for photographs, face shot, casually dressed, wearing swimwear, etc. had a few sent five. It was my first job application, I was 19 at the time. A few days later I was invited in for a Club taster assessment day.
My interviewer and potential mentor Izzy, who was a lovable but very effeminately camp character explained it was for a gay Gentleman's and Spa Club, I was to spend a day with them to see how I managed in the environment, which wasn't for everyone. He had checked out my social media, flashed it up on his iPad which included photographs of me cavorting naked on a naturalist beach with other students at an end of term beach barbecue at Croy.
We went to an annex room, Izzy's dance studio, showed me the uniform I would have to wear, silver almost there micro shorts with matching trainers and cuffs. Asked me to strip off, in a nervous high bent down untied my shoes as he said.
'No; that's not how you do it, now follow me, step by step.'
Izzy kicked off his shoes, scuffed off his socks without bending down; I started mimicking him as he evocatively undid his belt and dropped it, unbuttoned his trousers letting them drop and casually stepping out of them, unbuttoned his shirt let it slide backwards off his shoulders, slid his thong down, twanged it away. As we stood their naked facing each other I was excited enjoying the thrill off doing it and a bit high, I had popped one of my left over exam study pills.
Asked me to slowly walk with him around all the mirrored walls I following his style of hips effeminately swinging, I was really getting into it, the mirrors allowed you to see your every body movement from different angles. At the end of the walk I noticed a camera has been filming us, Izzy looked at me and said 'this is how the boss assesses us and interviewees.'
As I stood there starker's he measured my waist, hips and calf's, checked a chart selected a uniform pack. I pulled-on the micro shorts they were clingy showing off all your assets. We headed downstairs in our shorts to the lounge for coffee where he explained what today would comprise off. I was given a neck chain with a Club registered name of Tash, we all had them, Izzy's actual name was Percy I could understand why he preferred Izzy.
I was to serve in the lunch time lounge and coffee bar, ordering iPads simple to use select, pick up and serve. Izzy warned me some Members are banter masters and hands-on type, but they were often biggest tippers. No cash, it was all done via a Member account.
