(dedicated to @Ploofies,your comment actually cracked me up, so thank you for that!)

I had never completed a strip tease before. Granted, I had never even tried one but that didn't make it any less awkward as the door locked behind us and Jacob sat down on a chair, looking up at me expectantly.
"Don't worry, I won't bite, although I'm sure you won't mind if I do." He had the kind of voice that left you in a trance. A soothing calm voice, one that could chase away your worries, one that he no doubt uses on all the girls.
It worked. I didn't even know what he said, the words were passing through my head at the speed of lightning, it was the tone that had me catching my breath.
Dear god, who cared about looks? This guy could turn on a girl just by sweet talking into her ear with that smooth, smooth voice of his.
He came up to me, trailing his lips over the shell of my ear before whispering the words, "Whenever you're ready," before returning to his chair and throwing me a wink.
That was all it took.
All it took for me to slowly start stripping down and dancing all over the room. Sensual and teasing at first, the speed of my movements quickly slowing down pace to try to keep him on the edge as his eyes lusted all over my exposed figure.
And I would be lying if I said that there wasn't a small part of me that enjoyed it.

Walking out of the room, with Jacob on my trail, I could feel the eyes of each and every one of them scorching a hole into my disheveled and wrinkled state. I could feel the colour of my cheeks rising, the heat spreading all the way down to my neck and disappearing into the collar of my shirt.
A slow clap. A smile. A grin.
Standing up, Ria patted me on the back, "Well done, didn't know you would have the guts to do that."
Frowning up at her, I opened my mouth to ask her what she meant but she got there before I could even utter a word.
"We were thinking of clearing off around about now, wanna join?" She raised her eyebrows, a small smile on her face, revealing a single dimple on the left-hand side of her face.
"Erm, no thank you." I answered, trying to be polite, I still had to find Heather, I was her ride home.
"Whatever suits you," She shrugged and flounced off, and somehow she was able to make such a simple movement look so elegant.
I was jealous for a moment.
Trailing my eyes across the area, I looked around for fiery red hair, a tell-tale sign that it was Heather.
When I found her she was grinning ear to ear, holding her phone out and dancing it across my vision.
"Guess which bitch just got that hot bartender's number?" She squealed, I could tell from her face that she was trying hard not to jump up and down in contentment.
"I take it, you?" The answer was obvious.
Nodding, she linked her hand in mine and quickly glanced back before smiling at me, "Do you want to head back?"
I instantly agreed, wanting to get out the environment to prevent the oncoming headache. We made our way back, hand in hand, and for the first time in so long, I felt happy.
