Masquerade Party 01
Now, I'm not one to spoil or ruin the moment and I kept it to myself, but I'm pretty sure that no matter how large of the spoils of riches in the Victorian age, they just didn't have small mirror balls inside of their ball rooms. But it's cool, I guess. And I'm Tim, by the way.
"Mademoiselle, how are you this evening and shall I wave the server over to top off your beverage then, hmm?"
"Monsieur, you may wave the server over, but one does not top off a glass of Champagne, one finishes a glass of Champagne and retrieves another fresh glass. This is not a kegger, Monsieur. Also, do they still have keggers, Monsieur?"
"Ahh, it's a time-honored party go to, Mademoiselle. Anyways, have you made your rounds this evening then, Mademoiselle? Mingling would be the modern term, I believe."
"Oh, Monsieur, it's expected, but what I didn't think Mrs. Bentley expected was that I had each and every person figured out pretty quickly, so?"
"Ahh, true, Mademoiselle, but the fun of the fantasy is too pretend that we are all strangers in the night until the midnight reveal, would you agree, Mademoiselle, hmm?"
"I suppose I would agree with that Timmy, I mean, Monsieur. I also agree that if you had a fantasy of patting me on the ass, well, I guess that boxed has been checked, so?"
"For all my days gone by, Mademoiselle, for all my days gone by."
And that was true, folks. I had a thing for Mrs. Franklin for a long time. Like even before my days gone by. She is very attractive, she is very nice and pleasant to be around and she brings the body, which I hope doesn't make me sound petty, but that's what guys are attracted too, right?
Oh, and Mrs. Franklin was totally right about how the little face masquerade masks did little to hide or conceal anyone's identity, but it was for the fun of the fantasy, right? And a fund raiser for a good cause.
Also, she didn't actually tell me or ask me to stop, so. And what's wrong with topping off a glass of Champagne anyways?
"There you go, Mademoiselle, a fresh glass of fizzy Champagne, which still comes in second to your wonderful perfume tonight. It's very unique."
"Oh, thank you, Monsieur, but many women of my age wear "Hook Him Quick No.7" these days, you know, since our better days are now our days gone by."
And then that time when your experience, or lack of experience shuts things down before she could, right? But it was fun while it lasted.
"So, Timmy, I mean, Monsieur, where do you think this is going tonight, hmm?"
"Mademoiselle, it's an evening of fun for all, but I wouldn't be mad if you could answer that question, so?"
"Hmm, Monsieur, I'm going to need a moment or two to think about that and I am going to need you to drop the back of my dress back down, but things might be slightly in favor tonight. And only slightly, mind you, Monsieur."
I mean, that wasn't a "no" as much as it wasn't a "yes" I think, right people? And it's okay if people just walk away without any further words, right? And it wasn't all that bad how I enjoyed the way that she walked as she walked away from me, right?
"Are you enjoying the city masquerade fund raiser gala, Monsieur, hmm?"
"Ahh, Mademoiselle Mrs. Bentley, I am at that. And you?"
"Well, I wasn't expecting you to recognize me so quickly, Monsieur, but I suppose my famous cleavage leaves little to hide behind."
"True, Mademoiselle Mrs. Bentley and it's such a shame that the city of Middleton had to rethink their decision of commissioning a commemorative coin in your honor since it would be greatly unbalanced and unfair to use as the coin flip for any and all sporting events."
"(Giggles)"
Well, right, wrong or indifferent, they are huge! And always out there.
"So, Monsieur, have you accidently bumped hips with anyone special tonight then, hmm?"
That's a thing? I can do that? And "accidently" means no slaps in the face, right?
"Monsieur, we need to talk. I mean, one hip bump is an "accident" and two hip bumps are a hint, but your third bump let it be clearly known that a young man's cock fits nicely between a woman's buns, so other than you're hoping for May-December sex tonight, what's going on here, hmm?"
I mean, if I'm not mistaken, Mrs. Nevers asked and answered everything herself, right folks?
"Mademoiselle, I was merely trying to enter my bid on this silent auction item, so my apologizes for, um, bumping into you so many times, so?"
"Hmm, Monsieur, it's called hot dogging, Timmy and it's just a little strange that you're bidding on a gift certificate to a day spa, especially since your mother moved out of town and this day spa, that caters to women, is only located in Middleton. Also, since we don't have to worry about your mother catching on to whatever your hopes are for tonight, I mean, keep an eye on me tonight then."
Now, that was a "yes" if I ever heard a "yes" I'm pretty sure. Or was that a "maybe" then?
"Monsieur, I mean, we all expect a lot of crazy things from any event that Mrs. Bentley sponsors, but if you are the official gala inspector to verify that anyone wearing a corset under a collared jacket has tie strings that are tight and taunt, well, I guess Mrs. Bentley picked the right man for the job then."
"Mademoiselle, we wouldn't want any wardrobe malfunctions tonight, would we now?"
"I suppose we wouldn't want that then, Monsieur. Well, some of the men probably wouldn't mind a little malfunction here and there, but Tim, um, Monsieur, are my corset strings in the back tight and taunt then, hmm? And we don't have to talk about how modern corsets have fake strings these days."
Well, who decided that modern corsets should still tie strings then, hmm? But I liked how they still had sewn in strings anyways.
"Mademoiselle, it's like stringing my fingers along a finely tuned Harp."
