By the time we got to Klub Impulso the line was snaking around the block. DJ PLUS 1NE had developed a worldwide following. Thanks to all the social networking, folks were excited to hear him do his thing. There were signs out front announcing him. Eduardo greeted us at the door. I introduced them and could tell that Eduardo was tryin’a figure out what team DJ batted for. I definitely liked the same kinds of guys Paris did. If you could tell they were gay then they weren’t for me. I preferred a man’s man: sports fanatic, car guy, sometimes thug. After I introduced them, I led DJ to the booth where he would spin. Of course, he had his laptop, which was all you needed these days to do your thing. I looked up to see Eduardo staring at me.

“You good?” I asked DJ before heading off to see if the boss needed anything.

“Did you date him?” Eduardo asked me out of the blue.

“What?” I looked at him like he must be smoking the pipe. My personal life was exactly that. Personal.

“That DJ? He your boyfriend? That why you had my fly him all the way over here?”

“You high? Why don’t you step outside and clock that line around the block? That’s why he’s here. Two Grammy nominations.”

“But you’re more than friends?”

“I got work to do to make your club more than a temporary placeholder for bored rich kids,” I said as I went back to handling my business. What the fuck was that about? I thought as I went to check on the mixologists.

A few minutes later Eduardo found me. “I’m sorry.”

“It’s cool. I already let it go.”

“Yeah, I’m just nervous about tonight.”

“It’s handled. Just trust. I know what I’m doing.”

“Got it. I’m just not used to handing over the reins.”

“And that’s all it is?” ’Cause homie was acting a little sprung, which I already knew wasn’t going to work out for him.

“Yeah, nerves. I really want this club to succeed.”

“Me too. Then we’re talking the same thing.” I couldn’t help myself so I decided to throw him a bone even if it wasn’t really true. “FYI, he’s straight. Watch the line of women fighting for his attention tonight.”

“Oh, I’m sorry.

“It’s cool. We both want the same thing. For Klub Impulso to be on the map. So, I better get on with it.”
