Chapter 8
I stretched my legs out on the white carpet of the very luxurious Rex suite, my back pressed against the base of the couch. Chelsea sat across from me. Alia and the other burlesque dancers sat around the coffee table, eating junk food, drinking and talking. Those that were closing the club would come up later and join in. Hopefully the rest of us wouldn’t be too drunk or tired to welcome them.
“Truth or dare,” Alia asked me as she reached for another Oreo.
“Truth,” I said.
“Highest number of orgasms in a sexual experience.”
“You’re shameless, you know that?” I asked in exasperation. “All your questions have to do with sex.”
Alia shrugged. “It’s the only thing that’s interesting.”
“I’ll drink to that,” Shawna said, a curvy brunette who looked like Natalie Wood in Gypsy.
“Single sexual experience,” I repeated. “Does that include all-nighters?”
Another dancer snorted. “All-nighters? I’ve never met a man that can go more than once.”
“To be fair, I can’t go more than once. I fall asleep as soon as it’s over,” Chelsea admitted.
Alia kept her gaze on me. “One experience.”
“Ohhh, I see what you’re asking. You’re wanting to know if I have multiple orgasms.”
“No, that’s not what I meant. Like foreplay to the deed. How many?”
“One.”
“One?” Alia asked like she didn’t understand. “Were they doing it right?”
We busted out laughing. We were drunk and high on sugar and I doubted we’d sleep until dawn. Not that I cared because tonight was the night I was going to do some amateur sleuthing.
“Okay, new game,” I said. “‘Never Have I Ever’.”
“I love that game!” Renee exclaimed. She was another cocktail waitress and the only one of us who was married with a kid.
The questions started off with a bang. Never have I ever kissed another woman. Never have I ever had a threesome. When question time came around to me I said, “Never have I ever done hard drugs.”
A few people drank.
The questions went around again and then came back to me. “Never have I ever dated someone who did hard drugs.”
I kept track of the girls that drank and those that didn’t. Not that I really believed there was any correlation. I’d dated a huge pothead in college but hadn’t become one myself. The relationship hadn’t lasted long.
Everyone was drunk and losing interest in the game, so with one final question, not expecting to discover anything, I asked, “Never have I ever sold drugs.”
Three women drank.
“Okay,” I said. “I’m bored with this game. Let’s do something else.”
“Like what?” Alia asked.
I scrambled up from my seat. “Who’s got a good music selection?”
“I do!” Shawna volunteered, whipping out her phone. She scrolled through her playlists and then looked at me in triumph. “How about my 80’s mix?”
“Perfect!”
She synced her phone to the Bose speaker and before I knew it, we were having a full-out dance party. We danced until we were sweaty and then we collapsed onto the floor and couch. The closers of the club finally joined us, but they trudged in looking weary and exhausted.
