Whore
By Nellskitchen
Valentine's Day, Las Vegas
I felt it; he was close, and thank God. It had been a long day, and among other things, my knees hurt.
Despite being well-practiced, and though my signature brand of fellatio was unquestionably expert, this guy was taking forever. It is my fault. I insisted he use a condom. Silly me, I should know better. Do the math, girl! Even extra-thins increase a guy's staying power--and the time it takes to earn a buck.
I glanced over at the clock. It was nearing ten. The day would have to end here, with him.
***
The afternoon's fucking left me a sticky mess. There was no time to shower, so I hurriedly pulled myself together, my thought, to pick up a quick hundred before bedtime. It was Valentine's Day, and fittingly, I opted for red. Having had my nails done just this morning and needing things to match, I pulled on a satin garter dress, lace-top sheers, and a satin G-string, finishing the pretty picture with a sexy pair of stiletto-heeled multi-strap sandals--all, suitably, red.
I contrasted my outfit against a white leather jacket; the effect, stunning. About to leave the hotel room, I glanced in the mirror at all that redness and grinned. Running a hand over my firm butt, I whispered, "Not bad for a used-up slut."
Satisfied, I stepped out onto Paradise Road. For readers conversant in the nuances of Las Vegas, it is a risky side of the Strip for girls like me. The area's swaggering police presence sends a clear message, to stay away.
Since working girls are walking commercials, I took my sweet time. Ambling along the sidewalk, I stopped now and then, once to adjust the straps of my sandals, a second time, to straighten my stockings. The traffic was moderate but noisy, and I kept an eye out as drivers shot by at Vegas speed.
A green sedan slowed and drew near to the curb. I made eye contact with the driver. He appeared handsome, fortyish. He looked me over but cautiously passed me up, probably thinking I was too old. Instinct said he was trouble, so, handsome or not, I was glad when he accelerated.
After that, a car filled with nosy kids cruised past. Some condescending girl was at the wheel, and she honked the horn as her stable of college boyfriends, shouting the usual four-letter words, hung out the windows. One threw me the finger and, at the top of his juvenile lungs, yelled, "WHORE." I didn't care; I was used to it.
Right behind the obnoxious kids cruised another car. The driver was alone in what looked like a rental. I glanced; he glanced; he decelerated, I stopped walking. He was kind of cute; slim, older, about my age. I hoped he liked red.
I approached the vehicle, and he rolled down the passenger side window. As a precaution, I glanced into the back seat, checking that no one else was inside. Lazily, I eyed him. He was good-looking, in a Brett Favre sort of way. Good looks help but are not mandatory. I let slip a half-smile.
"Hey," he called.
"Hey," I called back. "You like red, mister? It's Valentine's Day, and maybe I'm wearing it just for you."
"Red's nice," he replied. "Listen, do you need a ride?" He was edgy, his eyes darting to the surrounding traffic.
"Depends," I signaled.
"On what?"
"Depends on where you want to go and how long it will take to get you there." He eyed me suspiciously and continued to look around. "The cops don't watch this block," I said.
He had a friendly smile. I liked it. Then he asked, "Do you have an hour?"
"I've got half an hour," I answered. With phony shyness, I looked away and glanced about as if to say, 'my pimp's hereabouts, so if you hurt me, you will answer to him.' Refocusing, I added, "Sorry, it's all the time I can give you."
"How much will it cost?"
"We can talk about it--but I have some limits. You'll need a condom."
"I don't like condoms," he countered. He said it tersely, and I almost thought he might drive off. To keep him interested, I pushed back from his car to give him a better look at me.
"If you don't like condoms, I might be too busy." I walked away, but after a few steps, I realized he was following me. Driving alongside again, he voiced displeasure but caved: "All right, I'll use a fucking condom--get in."
As he rejoined the traffic, I refused to look at him instead; I stared out the passenger-side window and, defaulting to my most disinterested tone, asked, "What brings you to Sin City?"
"Convention," he abruptly answered.
"Yeah, right," I whispered under my breath.
