I almost tripped as Jose was yanking my arm; the pitch black hallway didn't help me either. I did my best not to fall over due to his haste but to no avail. I stumbled and fell. Jose was excited, "Come on! I've waited all week for this. Get the fuck up!"
He was keen on going to this particular club. He's been nagging me all week for this. If only he wasn't like a brother to me then I would be at home watching a sitcom or more likely jacking off to porn. "Let's go, you'll enjoy this, promise." he said as he was helping me stand-up.
My eyesight betrayed me. I couldn't see anything. So I navigated with my hands. I used the wall for guidance which was pleasantly soft; like it was covered with thick cloth much like heavy drapes. Jose pushed aside a thick heavy curtain and viola; we were now inside the club.
After a stint in total darkness, my eyes were blinded by the bright lights. It took me a few seconds to adjust myself to see what was inside and I was not disappointed. I must have had a beaming expression on my face, "See, I knew you would enjoy this!" Jose said smiling from ear to ear. I was too.
All the corners of the club had neon lights, the walls adorned with posters of naked women performing various sex acts. All the tables and stools were bolted on the floor facing the main stage that had a catwalk and there were also booths on either side of the floor. Ledges where everywhere, each ledge would have four or five scantily clothed women swaying their bodies to the rhythm of the music. In front of us was a bar showcasing top shelf liquor which was always a welcome sight. The barmaid smiled and gestured us to sit by the bar.
"I'll have a beer." Jose said slightly shouting due to the loud music. "And what will you have?", the barmaid looking at me. "Give me tequila." She handed us our drinks and asked me, "First time here?"
"It is for me, my friend on the other hand looks like a regular."
"Your friend does look like a regular; I believe I've seen him before."
I downed my shot, "Jen, I'll have another one please."
"How did you know my name?" she asked looking surprised.
"It's on your name tag." I said pointing to her left breast.
"Oh right!" she laughed as she swatted my finger away.
As we were talking, Jose moved to one of the stools in front of the catwalk to watch the girls dance around.
"Have you chosen a girl yet?" Jen asked me.
"I was thinking of you, after all you are my type." I said looking at her.
"I'm just the barmaid, I'm not like the other girls." She answered.
"Suit yourself." I said as I downed my second shot.
Looking around the club, there were a few waiters, the managers or "Mamma Sans" and a booth that was occupied by some rich looking guy surrounded by four women in various states of undress; it was an off night for the club.
I joined Jose at the catwalk, "You enjoying yourself?"
"Hell yeah, I am! You should too after that break-up with that Michelle girl. You were too much of a catch for her anyway." Jose said trying to comfort me.
"I guess you're right." I answered.
"Let's get some girls!" he said pointing at one dressed in a lacy short skirt with black underwear dancing on one of the nearby ledges.
