couple more drinks, Gavin stands and indicates that it ’s time to begin our rounds at the clubs.  “Can we run home for a couple minutes first?  I’m not exactly dressed for a night out.”
    “Sure but no taking hours to get ready.”  He winks at me.
    I rush to the apartment when we step out of the elevator and run into my room.  I have already had way too many at the restaurant and no dinner to top it all off.  But what the hell! I want to get out, have some drinks, and dance my ass off.  I slip into the black and silver sequin banded dress and the black studded Louboutin’s Gavin brought home for me.  They are sky high and I’ll probably be on my ass by the end of the night but they look hot.  Hooking my stockings into my garter, I step into the shoes and then quickly run into the bathroom to check my makeup.  Despite my earlier episode, my face doesn’t look too bad.  Dabbing a little highlighting cream under my eyes and then some lip-gloss, I am ready to go.  I grab my earrings off the dresser and put them in as I walk into the living room to find Gavin waiting for me.
    “Holy hell , woman.  Are you trying to give all the men at the club a heart attack?  We all know how this turned out last time.  Maybe we should find a sack or something for you to wear.  Then again it probably doesn’t matter what you wear, a hot woman is a hot woman.”  He winks at me and I roll my eyes in return.  “Hey, gorgeous when you’ve got it, you’ve got.  And you, Celeste, you definitely have it.  If I was straight…  Well let’s not get into fairy tales, but you know what I’m saying.”
    T he night with Ian made me more fearless and in my alcohol fueled state, I felt emboldened and ready to take on anything.  Maybe even find me a hot man of my own to bring home for the night, no that thought needs to be erased from my brain.  There was no way I was EVER making that mistake again.  Once is enough for me; thank you very much.
    I turn to the door.  “Are you just gonna stand there or are we gonna go shake our asses?”  Giving my ass a shake for good measure. 
    Gavin le ts out a long whistle and then is right beside me at the door.  “Let’s go but I can see I’m going to have a keep close eye on you tonight.  Now no running off with any hot men, least of all ones you will be working for the next day.”  He nudges my shoulder with his and gives my ribs a tickle, feeling very playful tonight.             

Chapter 6
     
    When we arrive at the club, the line i s around the corner; I figure there is no way we are ever going to get in.  Instead, Gavin walks straight up to the security guard. “Hey Brett,” he says with a wink.  The large bouncer gives him the once over then smiles.  “Hey, Gavin.  You going to be here long tonight?  I don’t finish until close but if you’re here, make sure you find me before you leave.”  And with that, no paying cover or anything, he pulls the cord back and lets us through, staring at Gavin’s backside as he walks past.
    Staring in disbelief at Gavin, he just shr ugs.  “I met Brett last week at the gym and we hit it off.  He mentioned that he works here as a bouncer and that I should stop by some night if I had time.  And since this is one of the hardest clubs in New York to get into, I thought what better night than tonight.  Now it looks like the night just got better because not only do I get to dance with the hottest woman here and make all the straight guys jealous; I’m going to go home with that hot piece of ass.  Oh but don’t worry, I’ll be home in plenty of time our little shopping excursion.”  Then with a wink, he’s gone up to the bar for drinks.
    Handing me a vodka and cranberry, we scan the crowd.  This place is packed, and I can tell why.  The DJ is awesome and in the VIP section you can actually catch a peek of some real celebrities, not that they’ll be coming out to mingle with us but it’s still
