‘How about buying a girl a drink, handsome?’ murmured, a husky, female voice. He spun around to see the blonde stripper, Angelica, just perching h...r shapely derriere on the high-stool next to him, her crimson lips set in a warm, welcoming smile. She was wearing the same tight, red mini-dress that she’d been wearing during her act. ‘Sure, why not!’ he replied, with a shrug. ‘What are you drinking?’ ‘A dry white wine would be very nice!’ she murmured, big blue eyes gazing at him from beneath. I passed it to Lisa who opened it. Her eyes widened when she saw what was inside. She showed me the cheque. Five thousand pounds. I whispered, "Does that seem right?" She nodded emphatically. "He's not short changed you?" She shook her head. And I turned back to Blackthorn. "We're not going to have a problem with this cheque, are we." "Absolutely not." Lisa turned to me and mouthed, "I'm not the only one," then nodded to the girl on reception. She was 'Martha', according to her name tag. I. But before you do, I'm sure you know I'm highly anti-drug. But, I'm not going to castigate you if it's the case. Are you using drugs?"I knew the answer before she told me, but she told me anyway."Some," she said. "Just a little now and then."I did well to keep my temper in check. I managed, but just barely."OK," I said with a deep breath. "Again, our friendship depends on this. That better be the last lie I hear from you. You don't lose that amount of weight and look like you do by just using. I was in heaven right then because I had hopes that there would be a swing and what plans I had doing to you while in it!I smiled big and you reached for my face and began to kiss me slowly, starting with my neck, nibbling in that place you know that makes me crazy at the base of my neck. I feel you pull my T-shirt up so I step back just a bit, long enough for you to pull it over my head and drop it on the ground while you undo my bra with one hand. After all this time your still really good at.
