Sophia’s week went by in a flash. She had seen Michael almost every day over the past week, then once for a fleeting lunch hour visit he managed. And another time was a mere half an hour between work. He’d had a dinner appointment with an out-of-town friend of his he couldn’t get out of, but otherwise, she’d seen him more than she’d have thought possible. Every time they were together, it all felt real - nothing like a fake engagement. Granted, she didn’t know what those felt like.

But the hand-holding, the teasing and the jokes, the not kissing kissing, all felt like they were a part of a real relationship. The way he talked about his job and how his team was working on testing new video chat features for the website and the app. Every now and then, she’d catch him watching her and she got the notion he was in as much as she was, almost as if he too couldn’t believe the attraction between the two of them.

Although they seemed to get closer in that way, he still hadn’t pried about Sophia’s job, and she hadn’t offered him any information. She knew it was wrong, especially because of the judgment attached to that title. And the publicity of his. She didn’t know if he didn’t care simply because they only had two weeks left of their farce or if he just respected the fact that she would tell him if she wanted him to know. Either way, it was a fresh relationship in the sense that he didn’t know what she did for a living because once men knew, they immediately wanted her to give them private shows—lap dances, whatever—as if she had a pole in her bedroom for crying out loud. Not that Michael didn’t get her wound up enough in that sense, he absolutely did, but work wasn’t something she necessarily wanted to bring to the bedroom. Generally speaking.

“You’re up, Sophia.”

“I know. I’m going.”

Tonight was no different from the rest.

The Glass House had a handful of dancers who would run through a few songs one after another, switching places intermittently. A few of the girls though, including herself, had a larger clientele. They were better at pole dancing, more experienced at stripping and dancing in general and they knew how to use aerial ribbons quite efficiently. Tonight, Sophia wore a schoolgirl ensemble – plaid red and black short mini-skirt with a white buttoned blouse that she’d knotted in the front with an ample amount of cleavage showing. No different than the other times, she got up there and did her thing, heart thumping wildly in her chest as she danced around the stage. She had been able to pick up a few extra spots over the week because somehow she knew deep down that the insurance was going to deny her request to cover the prescription. She spoke with the doctor, and he felt it was extremely necessary for Grandma to have it; otherwise he wouldn’t have prescribed it.
