Once out of the limo, Ryan escorted Riley to the bouncer who was guarding the bar he was so keen on them getting to.
The brunette was led through a partially dark tunnel that they had to pass through before coming to the actual bar. He was taken to the VIP area of the bar and a male attendant dressed in what appeared to be a woman's babydoll and stockings approached their table. "May I take your order?" He asked them, his bright blue eyes momentarily flitting to Riley, drinking in his form, before settling on Ryan.
The brunette stayed stock-still whilst the blond ordered a pitcher. Just what was going on? Who were all those people? And why were they dressed all quirky like his friend? "You must've wanted to come to this place tonight," he noticed out loud.
"What makes you say that?"
"Well, the other people here are dressed so..." He glanced around at the exclusively dressed people dotted around the bar's walls and floors. "...colourful."
"It's a gay club, Ri," he replied, "but if it bothers you that much..."
"No, it doesn't bother me at all." He sat further back in the chair he was in. "I like it."
Ryan nodded slowly. "Would you think I'd have wanted us to come here for fun?"
"No, I guess not..." Riley appreciated his girlfriend's concerns about the smaller male being 'quirky' and that there might have been some truth to what she meant, but he accepted the fact that he did something not every other guy would do and that was fine.
"So it doesn't bother you?" The blond thankfully took the pitcher from the attendant when he arrived with it on his tray.
"What you do is up to you," he shrugged.
"I'm glad you've said that," the blond drew in a small sigh, "'cause there's something I've been meaning to say to you for a very, very long time and I don't want it to hurt you."
"Ryan," the brunette placed a hand on his, "you're my mate. Whatever you say won't hurt me."
Ryan gasped in shock at the fact that Riley's body was almost touching his as he leant closer to him. "So would I hurt you if I did something?"
"No," he spoke carefully, "although it depends on what it is."
With no word of warning, he closed his eyes and pressed his lips against his. He felt such a warmth of pleasure go through him as they connected and he gently slid his lips onto the brunette's lower lip, drawing out a small surprised whimper.
They withdrew and the blond snaked an arm around the other's waist, allowing his index finger to slide up and down the small of his back. "I think I love you, Ri," he admitted, "and that I have done for a very long time."
"I'm taken," he dimly replied.
"But when have you had the smoothest of times lately?" Ryan intuitively stated.
Riley shuddered from the caressing, and he found that the touch was making him relax.
"I can tell you're not happy in your relationship," he went on, "and I know that I can make this so much better."
"How?"
"We can leave this place once we've had a drink or two. Then we can either go on to another place or go back to my place. If you wanna have fun -- if you wanna have pleasure, then come back with me and I can make that happen."
