I didn't dare go out for at least six days. I stayed with Erik so I didn't have to go back and forth and risk seeing any of The Aces again.

    Work had worn me out and I laid on Erik's bed. He was currently closing up the shop and we had nothing to do tonight.

    I groan and slid off the bed, hitting the floor headfirst. I see feet standing in the doorway.

    "What the hell are you doing?" He says with a laugh.

    "I'm bored!! I wanna go do something." I whine.

    "Well the club downtown is open tonight. You wanna go?"

    I sit up and sit crisscross applesauce on the floor. "Which one? Bounce?"

    He raises a brow at me. "How the hell do you know Bounce?"

    "I know that one club. But no others." I say sheepishly.

    Jet's dad owned the clubs around there. That's what he told me. I wonder if that was the same around here?

    Erik shrugs it off. I was in college. I was bound to know a club or two.

    "But to answer your question, no. Not Bounce. Rich people don't own the ones around here. They're more wild."

    I definitely needed to wind down and get a little wild right now.

    "When can we go?"

    "Once I get cleaned up we'll go."

    Scurrying off the floor I hurry to get my shoes on. I brush my teeth and make sure I smell good.

    The last time I went to a club was with....it was with The Aces. With Rex.

    Ugh!! I had to stop thinking about them! In order to forget them I had to stop thinking about them!

    The club was a block away so we walked. And Erik was right. This was wild.

    The music was loud and the beats from it could be felt through my shoes. Lights flashed and people danced like lunatics.

    There was a bar. But it was a 'fend for yourself' kind of thing. People jumped over it and got whatever they wanted.

    But we did have to pay on the spot to get in. So I guess we paid for the whole experience. Free drinks and all.

    "I'm gonna go dance! See if I can get some ass for the night!"

    I nod at Erik and watch him walk off into the crowd. But I soon follow suit and get into the rhythm of my own dance.

    A few guys came and went but I mostly danced by myself. I didn't mind it since I liked dancing by myself. Having a dick dig into your back or belly was troublesome.

    They all wanted one thing and it was disgusting. Like I was more than my body. I had a great personality.... sometimes.

    I soon got out of breath and my forehead was damp with sweat. Erik was dancing with a tall tatted-up guy. He looked like he was having fun tonight too.

    Making my way to the bar, I didn't know if I should jump over like the others did. Or just go without a drink.

    I drummed my fingers along the bar and began to turn around. "Want a drink?"
