Claudia meets the Crew
"Let's go inside for a bit before we take off," Lucas suggested. After having just had a wild sexual encounter with his two passengers, Lucas was eager to further impress.
"Inside?" Claudia questioned. She was anxious to get home but was genuinely curious to see if her Uber Black driver had any more surprises up his sleeve. Claudia giggled to herself that the surprise down his pants had been more than memorable. Mr. Franklin controlled and accelerated the situation so smoothly.
Lucas was very attractive and full of raw sexual energy. Claudia picked up on this pretty quickly but she couldn't imagine acting upon the chemistry between them. Her hesitations evaporated around Mr. Franklin. Claudia wasn't sure how he picked up on her repressed desires.
"You have facilities here?" Mr. Franklin asked. He looked around and then focused his eyes on Lucas. Mr. Franklin could sense the suave Uber Black driver wanted to tell them something. Perhaps he wanted to find out more about the virus scanning device.
"The crew I am part of has a little club house just down the path," Lucas answered pointing over Mr. Franklin's shoulder. "You guys have come this far," Lucas continued bursting with excitement. He'd been wondering if he would ever have a chance to show the clubhouse off. It was a secret but Lucas wanted to reciprocate the trust Mr. Franklin had just shown him. Lucas was pursuing a Master of Science degree in biomedical artificial intelligence. He was keenly aware of secrecy surrounding devices that had yet to hit the market.
Claudia's curiosity was getting the better of her. She decided to pursue a question that had been lingering. "So Lucas, you mentioned that your buddy, who let you know about this place, used to work for the park service. Did I catch that right?"
"Yes, that is right," Lucas responded. He rubbed his chin as he admired Claudia's resilience. He couldn't resist flirting with a sexually dynamic woman. "You've got a great short term memory. I guess I was mistaken thinking we had rocked your world so hard back there that you would be in a complete daze, unable to think of anything else but sex."
Claudia appreciated his arrogant confidence but had no problem putting him in his place. Feeling flirtatious she elaborated, "Don't kid yourself. You've got a lot of rhythm for sure, but you haven't turned me into a zombie. Now, might we get in trouble since your friend no longer works with the park service? What if current employees see us?"
"Trouble?" Lucas posed with a devilish smile. "Now seeing you get in more trouble, a lot more trouble is something I could really get into. Wouldn't you agree, Mr. Franklin?" Lucas uttered nodding towards Claudia.
Claudia was now biting her lip as she felt a tingle run up her spine. She was no match for Mr. Franklin's controlling nature. It turned her on immensely that he got off on making her obey. Lucas, adding his aggressive demeanor, increased the sexual charge she was now feeling.
"Lucas, has anyone ever told you that you are a very perceptive person? Does it come from your studies or from driving around the city streets?" Mr. Franklin asked. He saw that Lucas possessed kindred skills and the desire to smoothly push female sexual boundaries.
"Can't you guys be serious?" Claudia asked in frustration. She enjoyed the sexual undertones of their conversation. However, she feared the level at which men often get distracted by sex. In her mind, gaetting in trouble for trespassing was a real possibility.
"Are you doubting our Uber driver's judgment?" Mr. Franklin questioned. "You should really show him some more respect."
"Sorry, I was just trying to make sense of what he said earlier," Claudia responded. She felt a little nervous excitement due to the stern tone in Mr. Franklin's voice. Was she going to get punished?
The three of them started to walk down that path. Lucas explained that while his buddy used to work for the park service, two members of his crew were current employees.
"What is this crew you speak of?" Claudia asked. She waited until they had reached what looked like a large shed. The building was twenty feet wide and sixty feet long.
"We are a group of like-minded individuals," Lucas answered as he reached into his pocket. He pulled out a key and opened a door to the building.
"Wow, this is pretty cool," Mr. Franklin remarked as they stepped inside. There were several couches and an office table that sat six in the center of the room. A large window was to their right. Mr. Franklin walked over to the telescope that was set up looking out the window.
"Check out the view," Lucas declared as he took the cap off the telescope.
While Mr. Franklin was looking down at the city through the trees surrounding the clubhouse, Claudia explored the rest of the room. There were three other doors.
"What do you guys do here?" Claudia inquired. There was a small window looking into one of the rooms. It was dark on the other side of the glass.
"Let me give you the brief tour," Lucas proclaimed, taking on the air of a host. "This here is where a couple of the guys do some recording." He flipped on a light revealing several microphones, a mixing deck, keyboards, a bass and a guitar.
"In this room we have some video editing equipment," Lucas uttered as he continued the quick tour. The video editing bay was a fairly small room with two chairs and a couple of monitors.
"And finally here is the set," Lucas said proudly as he opened the last door. They walked into a room that was roughly half the size of the whole clubhouse. It was very nice inside with plush carpeting and a very large round bed with silk sheets.
"I've never heard of a clubhouse with a bed and silk sheets," Claudia scoffed. She was feeling a little playful and wanted to poke back at her two dominant male counterparts. "Your crew must be awfully close to each other. I guess you guys need cuddle time, right?"
"You are a sassy one aren't you," Lucas responded. He looked toward Mr. Franklin hoping he was taking stock of the situation.
"Awfully brash of you Claudia," Mr. Franklin uttered. "Do you think you can be so careless with your words towards Lucas because you are with me?" Mr. Franklin was trying to let Claudia know he was paying attention, but at the same time he was also hoping she would get Lucas more riled up than he was already. The impressive nature of the clubhouse led him to believe she didn't have a clue how much 'trouble' she could be getting herself in.
"Sorry, I guess I just don't know my place," Claudia answered with a little smirk as she walked out of the studio. Claudia went over to the little kitchenette that was near the window with the telescope.
"Lucas, I know a few of your crew members," Mr. Franklin said as he looked at a few pictures that hung next to the set door they had just entered.
"Oh, you do. I thought you might, based on a few of the folks I've given rides to under your account," Lucas declared with a hint of nervousness in his voice. "I hope I didn't fuck up. I've known most of these guys for a long time, but I was only recently made a member."
Mr. Franklin gave him a serious look, "Discretion in these circles is crucial. I don't know what rules your crew has but I am sure they must have explained that to you."
