WELCOME TO BURLESQUE

"That girl is old enough to be you're daughter"

"That didn't stop Jay"

Jay stood up and threateningly walked over to Kurt grabbing a fist full of his shirt

"Keep Gloria out of this"

Both Mitchell and Robert stood up trying to calm Jay down

"HEY NO BAR FIGHTS"

The young man behind the counter shouted at them and they all sat back down ignoring the looks from the other tables

Silence fell on the table none of them looking at each other. The lights suddenly went out and one single bright spotlight shown on the stage outlining a bunch of young women in small outfits. The music started and a mysterious figure in the center started singing in a deep sensual voice.

Show a little more
Show a little less
Add a little smoke
Welcome to Burlesque

Mitchell couldn't keep his eyes off her as she got clearer in the light, her voice was doing strange things to him and every movement she made seemed to set him on fire

Everyone is buying
Put you're money in my hand
If you want a little extra well
You know where I am

"YES MA'AM"

He was momentarily shook from his trance as he saw Kurt practically drooling and even their two married friends couldn't help themselves staring. For a split second he felt himself boiling and he couldn't explain why. This woman was nothing more than a stranger to him yet the attention that the men around him was paying her was making him extremely jealous

Show a little more
Show a little less
Add a little smoke
Welcome to Burlesque

Applause, shouts and whistles rang out and the whole room stood on it's feet as the stage went dark and the club lit back up

"I.....um....I'm gonna go pee"

Mitchell stood up but neither one of the other men seemed to even know of any existing life around them as they clapped along

He made his way to the men's bathroom and washed his face with cold water. He slapped himself a few times then walked over to the toilet and relieved himself. After drying off he walked out bumping into a man on his way

"Oh well excuse me I....."

"Oh no that's FINE sweetie.......and so are you"

He raised his eyebrows and scoffed then heard someone giggling behind the man.

"Easy boy"

The voice made Mitchell go pale. He saw her glance over the man's shoulder her long black hair falling to one side and her big hazel eyes looking into his soul

"Hi.....sorry he hasn't been laid in a while"

"Oh hush"

She laughed loudly and stepped out from behind him her body clad in a tight mini dress and her legs accentuated by high heels and fishnet stockings

"I'm Tess......and my eyes are up here by the way"

Mitchell's head snapped up and he smiled slightly embarrassed at being caught staring

"Mitchell...."

She smiled and they stared into each others eyes for a while before the spell was broken

"Saen", He said annoyed

Tess smacked his arm and chuckled as he grabbed it and rubbed

"Slut", he whispered walking past them

She smiled shaking her head and rolling her eyes at his back as he dissapeared into the bathroom

"Care for a drink?"

"Sure", he followed her to the bar where the young man took their orders

"I'm sorry about Saen he really is a nice guy when you get to know him"

"It's fine I've had worse"

She raised her eyebrows, "You get hit on daily by gay men?"

He chuckled along with her and savoured the sound of her laugh

"No I mean I've seen and heard worse from straight seemingly grown men"

She took a sip of her drink as it was set in front of her and nodded

"You know I'm better in bed than she is......just putting it out there"

They both looked over at Saen who had joined them and was now nodding at the bartender to bring him a drink as well

"A double"

"As uh.....CHARMING as you are I'm..."

"Straight we get it......I figured since you can't keep you're eyes off Tess's boobs"

Tess and Mitchell laughed together as Saen just smirked while sipping his drink

"You know what this sour company is boring me, want to take a night cap?"

Tess stood up offering her hand to Mitchell which he just stupidly stared at for a while then glancing over her shoulder seeing his friends were not at the table they had occupied anymore

"Uh.....yeah why not?"

He smiled and took her hand. She led him up a small rotating staircase to a glass double door

"After you"

She held the door open for him. He walked in and marveled at the decent sized office, walking around he studied the pictures all over the walls of burlesque, he stopped at one particular picture

"That was me when I started performing"

He turned his head and watched her approuching him with her hands crossed, a proud smile on her face

"Pretty huh?"

He smiled turning around, "Gorgeous"

She blushed and took a hand full of hair pushing it behind her ear

"Right what would you like? How about another whiskey? On the rocks?"

He nodded smiling as she turned to prepare the drinks. He admired her ass as she bent down to the small fridge behind her desk. After handing him his drink and making herself one she led him to the nearby couch and gestured for him to sit next to her

Sorry this isn't a good ending but it will continue on in the next chapter otherwise it would have gotten too long....thanx for reading
