((Set at the start of June))

Quote:
Man, he hasn't been out to the club in quite a bit!

Dmitry nodded his head to the beat while he walked into the club with his fiance, arm wrapped around his waist. It felt kind of strange since he was used to going to clubs when he was single. It's a different experience going with Ryan which wasn't a bad thing at all. But knowing him, he HAD to be a bit uncomfortable. He turned his head to the side a bit to ask, “You good baby?” the music was loud and he swore he could just smell sex anywhere he turned his head.

It was a good thing they were going to the VIP lounge, or rather, it was a good idea to rent the spot out for the two of them. Maybe there were some nice mirrors in there? Ry loved mirrors and so did he.


Quote:
Ryan wasn’t uncomfortable at all, but he Dmitry wouldn’t know he spent a lot of time in clubs these days. If he told him it wouldn’t be the truth, he didn’t want his fiancé having anything to do with the negaverse. No his fiancé was his normality, what kept him sane.

“I’m fine babe, I’m a photojournalist … I cover crazier thing than the club scene in Destiny city.”

He kissed Dmitrys cheek and grabbed his hand, “now let’s get the VIP section so we can get some drinks and get to dancing.”


Quote:
Shannon had been in the club for a few hours now, the beat throbbing through her, but she hadn’t found anyone to play with. A few to flirt with to get a drink or two but no one to spend more than a couple of dances with and that was a damn shame. It wasn’t a bad club. Plenty of people, good drinks… if a little pricey, decent music, but apparently tonight was couple’s night or something because most of the hot guys she wanted to talk too were already with someone else. Such was life. The curvaceous woman sighed as she sipped her cocktail, pointedly ignoring a mouth breather next to her who was checking her out, and raked the crowd with her silver eyes.

A pair of men however had her perking right up. Both were yummy but one was familiar. Considering how chummy the two were the pale haired woman had a very good idea who the second peace of hotness was. With a rather feral grin Shannon slid off her barstool and practically sashayed over to the duo, her hips making the flared dress flutter around her. “Ryan… darling! Just the man I was hoping to see,” She deliberately emphasized ‘see’, implying something quite different, just to mess with him. Like Alex, the duo in front of her were gay, but that didn’t mean she wasn’t going to tease them. If she didn’t flirt with them then the whole night would have been a total bust and where was the fun in that.


Quote:
“Thats very true…” ah photojournalism….Thank god he was about almost done with his degree...He could finally start his internship under his father while he nabbed another degree in business. He shook his head and kissed the top of Rys head, letting him lead the way. He was about to comment on some poor guys attire when a healthy looking woman came up and expressed how his fiance was just the person she wanted to see, causing him to raise an eyebrow.

“Gonna introduce me Ry?” he gave the woman a friendly smile and waited. Depending on how Ry acts, he may or may not have to be a d**k here. He wasn't overlooking her flirting, but if it was harmless he didn't mind. If she annoyed Ryan though, that was a different story.


Quote:
“And here I thought I would have a Shannon free day, but you do love the clubs don’t you … the more men the better.”

He looked to his fiancé and wave a hand in Shannon’s direction unbothered by her flirting. “This is Shannon. She’s a writer and we’ve done some work together for the newspaper. And actually I’ve got to get her the pictures I took for her blog. Still owe me for those by the way.”

He motioned to Dmitry, “This is my fiancé, Dmitry, though I’m sure you guess that already. We were just on our way to the VIP section.”

He gave her a smirk.


Quote:
Shannon rolled her eyes at Ryan, “I’m working thank you very much and besides there is nothing wrong enjoying a little male company.” She had actually just come out to have some fun but she wouldn’t tell Ryan that. “I offered you a free dance for the pictures but you turned me down,” the curvy woman grinned at the male and swayed her hips suggestively before laughing softly. “The offer still stands. I’ve been practicing a few new moves by the way.” She knew that he knew that one of her hobbies was pole dancing, it was fantastic cardio and it got the best reactions from people when they learned about that particular hobby.

Dmitry… a yummy name for a yummy male. Too bad he was gay, and taken. Why were all the hot guys gay? Shannon kept her thoughts to herself as she extended a perfectly manicured hand and basically purred, “pleasure to meet you Dmitry.” Sadly Ryan opened his mouth and soured her mood even further. Silver eyes narrowed slightly before she laughed and shook her head. “Enjoy, I’ll be here enjoying the music and the men.” Ry knew she would be in the VIP section if she could afford it so him rubbing her nose in it annoyed her to no end, not that she would ever let him know he had gotten under her skin.

“If you guys want some company though I might be able to be persuaded to join you.” She winked at Dmitry as she sipped her cocktail.


Quote:
Dmitry took the perfectly manicured hand that was offered, shaking it lightly. “Pleasure to meet you Shannon. Nice to see my baby making friends.~” he raised an eyebrow at the mention of her working. “Thats a shame...I'd hate to be at the club for work…” he gave her a smile and nodded like he was confirming something, “If you're allowed to take a break, wanna join us for a bit?” he was curious and wanted to get to know Shannon more.

Besides, he wasn't going to pretend that be couldn't feel some sort of strange vibe between the two. He was sure they havent ********, even though that would be a sight to behold. Ryan isn't the top type...He would know since he’s thoroughly explored everything Ry has to offer. The thought made his hand lower to lightly pinch Ry’s a** before moving back to its original place on his waist.


Quote:
Ryan gave Dmitry a look, “you say that like I dont have friends … I have plenty of friends.” Sure most of them were like Shannon, friends on Beni’s team, basically coworkers. He shook his head, “I think she loves being at a club for work, scout out the place, dance, drink and then pick an idiot to take home and worship her for a night.”

He flashed her a grin, “sound about right darling?”

His grin faded away when Dmitry invited her up with them and he sighed deeply. He gave them both a look … apparently his future husband would have been one to take the bait. His look to Shannon was a warning, ruin his night and their would be hell to pay.

Ryan rolled his eyes at the butt pinch and continued up to the lounge.


Quote:
Shannon kept her amusement at the ‘baby’ comment and Ry’s response to it to herself. She didn’t think her captain would appreciate her laughing at him in front of his fiancé. Instead she acted insulted at his insinuation that her job was all fun and games but the grin kind of ruined it, “I’ll have you know that I don’t ‘pick an idiot’ to take home with me… sometimes I pick two.” She laughed and shook her head and corrected Dmitry’s thought about her working while at the club, “I review clubs for my blog so really I’m enjoying myself while working. You know what they say about doing something you love and not working, ya da ya da.”

At the invite to join them Shannon graciously accepted, the smile on her face practically widening a mile further at the scowl she got from Ryan. Annoying him was almost as much fun as getting a guy to dance attendance on her for the night, only much more dangerous. She knew that the warning in the other’s gaze was more then just lip service, he wouldn’t hesitate to extract his revenge at a latter date. That just made things more interesting in her opinion.

A perfectly arched brow rose at the pinching of the a** but she kept her mouth shut, the smirk hidden behind a sip of her drink, as she followed the duo to the hallowed spots of the VIP lounge. This night wasn’t such a dud afterall.


Quote:
Dmitry shrugged with a laugh, “Not that so much as I’ve never met any of your friends till now.~” Well, since Shannon was enjoying herself he didn't press any further, letting Ry walk up the stairs so that he could get a good look at his a**.

Ahhh….

He held the door open for Shannon to come through, noting that she had a nice a** as well. He shrugged and walked in, looking around. The space was okay, hes been in better VIPs but then again he was used to the finer things in life. He poured some wine, grinning when he realized that it was Giordano wine.

“Mmmmh! The good s**t~”


Quote:
Ryan sighed and rolled his eyes, “we’ll just have to have a party and then you’ll meet some of my friends. Maybe a pool party or something.” He’d be seeing Ryans friends more often as the wedding approached. He couldn’t believe it had already been nearly two years since they were engaged. The thoughts calmed some of his ire and he walked over to this fiance’ giving him a quick kiss and taking the wine right out of his hand to taste.

It was pretty damn good wine, “I still want to dance tonight, fiance of mine. You promised.”

He moved to sit on the couch and motioned for Shannon to join. He preferred VIP sections as opposed to rooms. Rooms were better when they had a group, which they rarely did. “Maybe a get together at the club would be better than the pool.”

Quote:
Shannon followed the boys, enjoying the view until they reached the VIP room and Dmytry held the door open for her. It was sweet of him and she gladly accepted the gesture, even giving him a bit more hip sway as she passed by. She hadn’t missed the looks he tossed her way, she took them as her due since her body was a masterpiece in her mind. She had curves she adored and a toned figure she worked out every day to keep trim and fit.

Sashaying over to the wine Shannon switched her earlier drink for a glass of the red liquid. “Oh that’s yummy,” She hummed in approval, the sound a bit more sexual than one would expect. “A club gathering sounds more fun but a pool party means I get to see you shirtless Ryan.” She laughed and settled on the couch next to her Captain, sipping her new drink. “You know if you want to see me in a bikini you only have to ask. I got this little lace thing for this season, I can’t wait to see how many eyes pop out at the local pool the next time I go. It should be quite amusing.”


Quote:
Ahhh so he was caught?

Dmitry chuckled and raised an eyebrow at the choice of words Shannon decided to use for the way the Giordano wine tasted, “Honey, Giordano wine is more than yummy, s**t is practically divine….Hell, if it wasn't super expensive, I would try to arrange a meeting with the owner. God that would be orgasmic…” he was not lying when he thought Romeo Giordano was the FINEST older italian man on the planet.

If that man wanted to spank him, bend him over, and have him call him daddy he so ******** would. Erm….He cleared his throat and took another sip of the wine, sighing. Why did Shannon want to see Ryan shirtless? Granted, Ryan's body was cut from Adonis himself but that didn't mean he wanted it on display….But seeing Shannon in a bikini….Hummmmnnn….


Quote:
“Really Shannon … down girl, behave … besides your not invited unless you can keep it in you damn pants woman.” He laughed and shook his head. “Oh a beach day would be awesome! We could hit a club on the pier afterwards. Yeah let’s do that.”

He looked to Dmitry, “you invite your friend and I’ll invite mine and we will make a big day of it. Fun in the sun and a night on the town.”

He downed the rest of his wine … damn that was some good wine. “Now enough about that … let’s dance, we can chill later. Both of you let’s go, didn't come out to sit on the couch all night.”


Quote:
Shannon made a face at Ryan before busting out in laughter as well. “Fine, fine, I’ll just wait until the party before I whip it out and compare it to yours.” She sipped more of the ‘divine’ wine and really couldn’t think of a better description than yummy. It was good s**t that she could drink all night long, and probably get smashed. Rather then comment on the tangent the Fiancé went on she just smirked and waggled her brow at her ‘boss’ before snickering at Ry’s ‘friend’ comment.

It was beyond difficult not to make a smart a** comment about him having friends. She knew that he would make her regret it, either from ‘uninviting’ her from the party or worse. It would make working together hard for a little bit. Not being stupid Shannon held her tongue and just finished off her wine and relaxed further on the couch, glad to be off her feet for a bit. Her strappy heels made her legs and a** look fantastic but they were hell on her feet after a while.

Apparently Ryan was a bit more restless then she was as he finished off his wine then egged them all on to go dance. As much as she wanted to stay there and chat and or flirt since neither of the males would be joining her beyond the club she nodded and climbed back to her feet. “Well then let’s go. I’ve still want to find some man candy for tonight, you’ve already have yours Ry.” She tossed a wink at Dmitry before striding back towards the main body of the club. “Come on you two. I could always use some wing men while dancing.”


Quote:
Dmitry was still enjoying his wine, laughing when Ryan pulled him up for a dance. He had a feeling he was going to be having some extra fun tonight.
