SHOWTIME
I recently had a fantasy dream with this scenario, but first let me set the background. I'm a bit older and I really don't have a super active imagination so it's rare for me to find myself with a new fantasy that just pops into my head. But that's how this happened, unexpected and titillating.
It had been a tough day. I really needed a couple of drinks to take the edge off. My husband was out of town for work as he frequently is. Generally speaking I just pour something at home but for some unknown reason I thought I'd go to a local watering hole for a change of pace. I threw on a skirt and blouse, ran my fingers through my hair and quickly put on some barebones makeup and headed to a bar that a friend had recommended.
She said it was pretty quiet but was kind of a dive joint but had really great specialty cocktails. I thought that was unusual for a dive joint but she said the bartender was grossly under his game there and most of the patrons seemed to be beer drinkers. She said his mojitos were to die for, and... oh yeah... he was really cute.
So I jumped in the car and headed for this place. I knew where it was, driven by it a hundred times, but had never been in there. It was about a 15 minute drive from the house and when I arrived the parking lot was, much to my surprise, quite full for a weeknight.
I gathered up my purse and headed inside. It was dark, dreary and totally unimpressive. Immediately I noticed that I appeared to be the only woman in the place. The clientele was decidedly blue collar. Mostly jeans and well worn t-shirts. I think every head turned when I walked in, or at least it sure seemed that way. My initial thought was "what the hell was Jeanette doing in this place".
I walked up to the bar and true to her description, the bartender was delightfully luscious. He was clean cut and one of the few guys in the place with a collar on his shirt.
"Whadaya having?", he asked.
"My friend says you make a kickass mojito, so let's go with that" I responded.
"Why yes I do" he said as he turned to start mixing my drink.
While I waited for my drink, I turned on the barstool to take a longer look at the place and the dozen or so guys in it. Classic dive joint with several neon beer brand signs mounted on the wall, about 6 tables, a hallway leading to the bathrooms and some kind of room further down that hall which I assumed had a pool table or two and maybe more tables. The dΓ©cor was definitely early 1970s with dark and cheap paneling covering the walls, dingy lighting with more than a few burned out lightbulbs scattered across the place.
The bartender showed up with the mojito and as he pushed it to me across the bar, said "I'm Rob; I didn't catch your name".
