"I'm going to let you have some fun tonight." It was an all to familiar tone from Zara, cool but teasing, letting me know that she was up to mischief. I was sitting in her office once again, she had texted me later than usual after I had spent the morning and afternoon without drama, hanging out with Kelly and trying my best to avoid everyone else.
"What type of fun?" I asked suspiciously.
"A night on the town. You've had a very... stressful week... " stressful wasn't the right word,"... and I'd like to treat you. I have a 24 hour limo that will be coming this evening to take you anywhere you want. I'll give you some petty cash and a credit card to use as you feel suitable." I wasn't buying this for a minute.
"What's the catch?" Her eyes sparkled and she smirked, looking down at her desk as she thought how best to phrase her next comment.
"No catch... but it would be a shame for a beautiful girl like you to come home alone." My mind was slowly putting it together.
"So... you want me to bring a girl back here to sleep with, like pick one up from a lesbian bar?" I was half smiling with curiosity; Zara was being ambiguous with her intentions.
"I don't think that really presents you with much of a challenge do you?"
"You want me to take a straight girl back... " It was beginning to make me nervous.
"Like I said there's no catch but if the opportunity arose... feel free to use my bedroom as well, it's a little more spacious." Zara was definitely up to something, her eyes had a wicked sparkle to them.
"Is this part of every girl's initiation? I don't really see how seducing a straight girl would be necessary in working here." Zara chuckled.
"Ok fine, you got me. I may be a service provider but it doesn't mean I don't have fantasies of my own... let's just say I would find it very erotic to watch you... "
"You'd like to watch?" I was trying not to grin, but the idea was beginning to sound appealing now that I knew Zara's involvement.
"I would, don't worry, you won't have to explain my presence, I'll have something set up in my room so I can... monitor your activities."
"What makes you think I can pull this off?"
"I think you underestimate yourself, and besides this is LA, a city full of haves and have nots, a little VIP treatment goes a long way. I know
I
have confidence in you." She gave me a very Zara look, one that made me feel like I was sitting naked, the look that made my insides squirm.
"Two days ago you told me you had more to show me, I want you to fulfill that promise." I had done, I remembered how sexy I had felt, forcing Zara to watch me with Nina. The confrontation with Jaime had knocked my confidence and Zara was giving me a chance to regain it. I took a deep breath and bit my lip, getting from the chair to lean on Zara' desk in front of her, glaring at her.
"Fine, I'll give you your little show, but remember our agreement? You still don't get to bring yourself off like I know you'll want to." Zara smiled broadly.
"I wouldn't dream of it."

When I got back to my room, I was fully excited by the idea. It was a chance to play somebody different, to step outside of myself for a night and be a seductress. I researched where to go, reading reviews on exclusive nightclubs on the Strip, finding the right balance between meat market and class. I was still nervous; I wasn't completely sure how I would be able to do it. It was one thing to seduce a lesbian in a house full of call girls, but leaving the safety of the bordello made me feel vulnerable to judgment and ridicule. Even Leah with her proclaimed heterosexuality had given off signals of curiosity.
I concocted a cover; I was a rich kid, my father would have to be a producer or studio executive, that usually got people's attention in LA. I would also have to look the part, picking a lace embroidered cocktail dress out. It was strapless with a sweetheart neckline and was very short, forcing me to pull it down every time I sat.
For once I was getting ready with the rest of the girls; the hallway was busy with activity, people going to and from the bathroom in towels, hairspray and perfume drifting out from open doors. I saw Leah as I was coming back from the shower and she avoided my eyes, looking down at the floor. I thought about cornering her to talk but set it aside for a time when I wouldn't be rushed.
"Wow, what's the special occasion sexy?" Kelly had poked her head through the doorway; I told her my mission. "Ugh, you lucky bitch! She totally has the hots for you, never heard of anyone else getting that treatment although she may take the flavor of the month out on a date." That made me blush a little.
"How do I look?"
"Gorgeous darling!" She used a really bad English accent. "If I were a straight girl and you came on to me... well let's just say I wouldn't need much convincing. You gonna dress up for me sometime?" I gave her a light kiss on the lips careful to not smudge my makeup.
"Of course, all you need to do is take me out with all that money you're hoarding." She pouted and I laughed. I made a mental check that I had everything I needed before heading downstairs.
The driver got out to open the door for me, Zara had probably requested a woman, less questions asked and less tales told. Thankfully there was champagne on ice, I needed a little bit of Dutch courage for what was coming. The driver rolled down the divider and I told her where to go but for her to take the scenic route, I wanted to get a couple glasses in me before I hit the place.
It was surreal to be alone in a large limo, it put the entire previous six days in perspective. So much had changed. Less than a week earlier it would have been absurd to think that I would be the one in a limo that paraded its way down Sunset or Hollywood Boulevards. It was weirdly nostalgic, like when you're having such a fun time that you realize the moment will shortly become a memory and you already can feel yourself looking back from the future.
I shook the thoughts off as my destination got closer, the champagne disappeared and I readied myself for the public. The limo helped me hop the line at the club. I would never have dared to go into a place like this by myself but this time I was getting VIP status, Zara had given me a hanful of bills to "make it happen" so I sucked myself up and acted the role I had set out to play: a rich kid with too much money to spend. I marched past the bouncers knowing all eyes were on me and they would continue to be for the rest of the night.
The club was awful: loud and full of heaving bodies, dancing woefully to R and B. Several men tried to cut me off to buy a drink or to just simply cop a feel for a response. I ignored them and headed to the roped off VIP section for a relative amount of peace and a bottle of champagne.
From my table, I was able to survey the entire dance floor, I was looking for a very particular type of person to target. I needed a party girl who loved attention and was on her way to a hangover. It didn't take long to find, not one, but two.
They were dancing together, grinding themselves against each other for the benefit of the on-looking men. I had seen it a million times before, straight women behaving sexually on the dance floor together in order to garner some attention. For them it was working, several men tried to join them but they were rebuffed, clearly disinterested, or simply waiting for a better option.
I had to admit it was a captivating show and they were pretty talented dancers. The dirty blonde was wearing a floral summer dress, her hair pulled back tight into a ponytail exposing sharp angular features punctuated by high cheekbones. I guessed that she had C cup breasts at this distance that her dress hugged. If she could have been described as normally beautiful, her friend was exotically gorgeous. She had straight jet black hair and almost seemed if she could have Asian genes in her with large dishbowl eyes that turned slightly upward. She would have looked innocent if it had not been for the cherry red lipstick that coated a sensuous mouth. Her frame was slightly more athletic with a smaller bust squeezed into a plain black cocktail dress.
I watched them as they danced, the dark haired girl flinging her long hair to the beat, letting it stick to her face as she ran her hands down her body with closed eyes. They would move together, clearly experienced in choreography as they effortlessly knew each other's moves. They were by far the best thing on the dance floor and when the blonde led her friend off by the hand to the bathroom I made my move.
"Ugh! If I have my ass grabbed by another guy I will seriously chop something off," I announced to the entire bathroom as I entered. The two girls were applying makeup and fanning themselves in front of the sinks. I got a response.
"Right? This place is crawling with douchebags," the blonde piped in.
"I really don't know how you guys put up with it on the dance floor," I moved beside them to apply some make up myself, "you know you are the spitting image of my best friend in high school, you're totally her doppelganger." I was addressing the blonde as she seemed more friendly, the dark haired girl was barely acknowledging me still.
"No way, I get that all the time for some reason, I always look like someone's friend. Anyway what better suggestion do you have to avoid the creeps?"
"VIP lounge upstairs, I tipped security to not get bothered."
"Oh sweet!" the blonde perked up and her friend started to pay attention. She was even better looking close up.
