Beauty & the Geek Ch. 04

"Passengers, we have arrived at LAX. I hope you have enjoyed flying Delta Airlines."

Kieran shoved Troy and told him the plane had landed. He woke and stretched his arms over his head before checking his watch; it was shortly after three o'clock. He stood as did Dante and Kieran. The three got their luggage and exited the plane with their group.

As soon as they claimed the luggage they couldn't carry with them on the plane, the men fought the crowd to get outside. Troy hailed down two cabs and the seven men scrambled inside them both.

The cab carrying Troy, Kieran, Dante and one other guy headed for the hotel while the other cab followed. Troy stared out the window at the scenery during the ride and made a mental note to return again soon.

Troy paid the fare for both cabs when they were dropped off and they men headed inside the hotel. Troy had purchased the penthouse suite that was way too expensive but he figured this was a once in a lifetime event for him so he wanted to go all out.

He was given the royal treatment from the clerk behind the check in desk once he gave her his credit card and the payment cleared. A bell boy appeared and took everyone's luggage and he stated he would meet the group on their floor.

They headed for the elevators and Troy's friends were excited about staying in one of the most expensive rooms in the hotel. Troy knew they were going to wild out and he begged each and every one of them not to trash the room once they were inside the elevator.

"Don't worry, we'll behave. Scout's honor." Kieran smiled while holding up his left hand and giving Troy the Boy's Scout hand signal.

Once they got to their floor and got off the elevator Troy noticed the bell boy was already there with their luggage. Troy opened the door with his key and the man walked inside to put the bags up. When he was done Troy tripped him and the man stated that he hoped he enjoyed his stay.

Troy walked in the room and was amazed at what he saw. There was a Jacuzzi in the middle of the room and a fully stocked bar. There was a large plasma TV on the wall and a high technology stereo. He saw his friends scatter to the three bedrooms in the penthouse and heard them yell how big the beds were.

Troy was praying none of them had plans on bringing girls back to the room. He went to the bar and fixed a drink while some of the guys started up the Jacuzzi.

"What's the plan for tonight?" Troy asked to no one in particular.

Dante and Kieran then started mumbling some words and made an excuse to leave but they said they would be back in a few. Troy was suspicious but didn't say anything. After his drink was fixed he made his way over to the couch and sat down. He flipped on the TV and soon his friends joined him with a drink and turned on some music while they waited for Kieran and Dante to return.

Kieran and Dante left the hotel and made their way down the street. Kieran read off the address he had written down on a piece of paper and they found it after a ten minute walk. They entered a strip club and asked the bouncer for the manager.

"What can do for you gentlemen?" the manager asked when he appeared from the back.

"A friend of ours is getting married and we're here for the bachelor party. We would to have some entertainment for the night." Kieran said with a charming smile.

The manager nodded and sat down at a desk near the front door. "How many dancers you need?"

Dante scratched his chin. "Four should be enough."

"When do you need them?"

"Around one AM."

"All right. It'll be five hundred as a deposit and you pay them five hundred each when they're done entertaining."

Kieran looked to Dante. "I'll pay the deposit and you got the rest right?"

Dante nodded. Kieran pulled out his credit card and handed it over. The manager ran it and when the payment cleared he handed Kieran a piece of paper to write down the address.

After he got back his card and scribbled down the name of the hotel and their room number, he and Dante left. They headed back to the hotel and once they were back inside the room they informed everyone they were going out to a nearby club and to be ready to leave at nine o'clock.

"What are we going to do for five hours?" Troy pondered.

"We're in LA! I'm sure we can think of something to occupy our time." Dante stated.

The limo carrying Anamaria and her group came to a halt, stopping in front of the Hard Rock hotel and casino. The driver exited and opened the back door releasing the women from inside.

Each woman got out and stretched their arms and legs after being cooped inside for four hours. The driver got out their luggage and followed them inside. Anamaria checked in and after receiving her room key they all got into the elevators.

"What kind of room did you get?" Lydia asked Anamaria.

"A large suite that makes my apartment look like a cramped in space. We'll have a beautiful view of the city which will look gorgeous once nightfall hits."

Lydia smiled and watched the numbers on the elevator light up. They reached their floor and the seven ladies made their way to their room. Once inside the driver of the limo put their bags up and informed Anamaria he would be back tomorrow afternoon to take them home. Once he left Anamaria gathered everyone around.

"Ladies, I want you all to have fun while we're here but please do not show your asses too much. Check out is tomorrow at noon but I've scheduled for us all to get massages at the spa here in the hotel so we'll leave once we're done."

"We should head out and hit a few spots around here." Abby suggested.

Everyone agreed and scampered into the two bathrooms to change.

****

In the five hours the men had to kill they spent most of it sightseeing and Kieran talked everyone into going to the Petersen Automotive Museum where he had an engine-gasm from all the antique and exotic cars on display.

By eight o'clock they returned to the penthouse to dress for a night out. They were supposed to leave at nine but because majority of them-mainly Kieran-hogged one of the three bathrooms to themselves, the group left closer to ten o'clock.

As they walked to a nearby club, Kieran whispered to Dante that they needed to leave by twelve-thirty in order to get back to the room before the 'entertainment' arrived.

The club was packed but it was expected for a Friday night. Troy and his group had no choice but to wait in the long line since he didn't have any pull. It was close to eleven o'clock when they finally made it inside.

The music was loud and the men had to squeeze through the crowd to find the bar or a table to sit down at. Dante immediately was led to the dance floor by a woman who caught his eye. A woman tried to persuade Kieran to join her on the floor but he politely declined. Troy was impressed at Kieran's will power and questioned him about it.

"I'm not here to pick up women. I'm here to help you celebrate your last few days of being a single man." Kieran yelled into Troy's ear. "You want a drink?"

Troy nodded and he watched Kieran head for the bar. He then looked around at all the people who were strangers to him. He noticed some of them look at him with disgust while others just stared like he was the freak of the week.

He shook off the feeling creeping up his back and found his friends at the bar. He saw Kieran ordering their drinks and noticed a woman approaching him. He looked at her out of the corner of his eye and noted that she was very pretty but if she planning on flirting with him, she wasn't going to get very far. He also saw that she had a drink in her hand and she began to wobble as she got closer.

She stopped right next to him and leaned against his body. "Has anyone ever told you that you look like Mel Gibson?" she smiled up at him.

Her speech was slightly slurred so Troy knew she was getting close to being wasted. He removed her body from his and placed her at arm's length.

"Yes, my fiancée tells me that all the time." he yelled to her.

She sucked her teeth and grabbed onto a man passing her by. He was a black man and he was tall and robust but not that good looking. "Has anyone ever told you that you look like Luther Vandross?"

Damn! Troy fought the laughter trying to escape his body but he couldn't hold it in. He rushed to Kieran and told him what the woman said and he too spilled a fit of laughter. He was handed his drink after they calmed down and a fast beat song came on which caused many people to bum rush the dance floor.

A few people didn't like being pushed so before anyone could dance; a fight erupted in the middle of the dance floor. Troy knew that Dante was on the dance floor so he sat his drink down and rushed into the crowd to retrieve his soon to be brother-in-law. He found him after he pushed a few people aside and grabbed his hand.

"Let's get the hell out of here." Dante breathed hard as he had been caught in the middle of the battle.

Troy pulled him out of the crowd and gathered his men to inform them they were leaving. It was midnight when they arrived back at the penthouse. As soon as they entered Troy pulled off his shoes and headed for the master bedroom. He paused when Kieran called his name.

"Where are you going?"

"To change my clothes. Then I'm calling Ana before going to bed."

Kieran sighed. "No, come on stay up for just a bit longer."

Dante also asked him to stay up and Troy faced them with great suspicion behind his stare. "What do you two have up your sleeve?"

Dante played innocent. "Nothing. Come on, we can't let a fight in the club ruin your bachelor party."

"You hired strippers didn't you?" Troy caught on.

"I think they prefer to be called 'exotic dancers'." Kieran piped in while using finger quotes.

Dante groaned and grabbed a pillow off the couch he sat on. He hurled it at Kieran and it bounced off his head. The men laughed as Kieran stood with his hair all over his face, a bit shocked at the attack.

"Guys, Ana would kill me if she finds out exotic dancers were up in here!"

Dante scoffed. "You don't think she has some male exotic dancers too? Besides I have never seen a couple more in love than you two so I'm sure you both trust each other."

Troy sighed. He complied and stayed up with the men until the dancers arrived. They killed the hour wait by watching TV. Everyone nearly jumped when the doorbell rang.

Dante raced to the door and opened it. He saw four beautiful women each of a different ethnicity. He ushered them inside and one of them placed a red lei around this way.

"Gentlemen, rev your engines!" Dante shouted as he came into view with the ladies in tow.

The women went around the room to put lei's on everyone but Kieran frowned at the woman approaching him. She looked in his eyes and jumped back a little.

"Kieran? What are you doing here?" she asked in a shocked tone.

"The better question is, what are you doing here?" he spat back.

"I was escorting a client out here and a friend of mine told me about a gig paying five hundred so I agreed to do it."

Kieran couldn't believe the woman he had paid to have sex with him a few days ago was in his face right now. Hell, this just killed his mood. He watched two of the dancers pull Troy to the couch and as the room filled with music they both gave him a lap dance while the others cheered the act on.

"So, do you want a dance or maybe head into one of the rooms for a little privacy?"

Kieran looked at the woman and watched her run her tongue over her lips and eye him she was a lioness and he was a piece of meat.

"There are other guys here. Why don't you go attend to them?" He made sure his tone of voice wasn't offending.

She smiled while moving to the music. "Yes, but I'd rather be right here with you. And I do recall giving you my private number a few days ago and you never called."

"Because I no longer need your services." he spat.

"Oh, have you found a girlfriend? That was quick but you are fucking hot so I'm not surprised."

Kieran pushed past her and made his way to the bar. He fixed a drink and as he lifted the glass to his lips the woman appeared beside him. She took the glass from him and downed the drink. Kieran felt himself losing his patience.

"You need to loosen up. Nothing will happen tonight that you don't want to happen. Come on."

She grabbed his hands and led him to the couch where Troy was sitting. Kieran saw that he was blushing the entire time as a naked woman gyrated in front of him. She pushed Kieran down next to Troy and she slowly began to take off her clothes.

Kieran felt his dick twitch as he watched her undress. Down boy, he mentally groaned. He had to maintain his composure because he could not let this woman think he wanted to have sex with her.

"Relax Kieran and enjoy yourself." he heard her say as he avoided eye contact.

The other men surely seemed to be enjoying themselves as they hopped in the Jacuzzi with two of the dancers. He sighed and watched as the two remaining girls danced for him and Troy. He felt his dick grow as the women kissed and touched each other. Damn, this was going to be a long night.

It was well after two in the morning when the seven women returned to the hotel after spending a few hours at a nearby dance club. Anamaria headed for the casino while her girls attempted to get on the elevator.

"Ana? Where are you going?" Abby called while adjusting the top of her dress so her titties wouldn't spill out.

"I want to see if lady luck is on my side. I'll just be a few minutes." Anamaria replied as she entered the doors leading to the casino.

Lydia decided to follow her but stopped when Abby grabbed her arm.

"Make sure she's back soon. We hired some male strippers and they're on the way."

Lydia groaned at the thought of half naked men prancing around but she simply nodded and walked into the casino. Anamaria was already at the roulette table placing a bet. Lydia stood next to her and watched the dealer place the ball on the spinning board and refused any more bets.

"Come on twenty three red!" Anamaria shouted as she watched the white ball spin.

The ball stopped and landed on seventeen black.

"Damn it!"

"Place your bets." the dealer stated.

"Where should I go?" Anamaria asked Lydia as she massaged the chips in her hand.

Lydia shrugged. "I don't know. Umm, twelve?"

Anamaria smiled and placed her entire pile on it.

"The whole thing? Are you sure about that?"

"Pays two to one." Anamaria said with a wink.

The dealer dropped the ball and they both watched it spin around. Anamaria clutched Lydia's hand and jumped up and down when the ball landed on twelve red.

"Looks like you're lady luck!" Anamaria cheered as she reached on the table and collected double her money. "Where to next?"

"Ana, I hate to gamble. You've won some money so let's go." Lydia groaned.

Anamaria sighed and agreed after she checked the time. They walked to the cashier and after handing in her chips Anamaria received a few hundred dollar bills back. The two women then left the casino and headed to their room.

Upon entering Anamaria saw her girls standing in a straight line and three buff men dressed in police uniforms pacing the room in front of them.

"What's going on?" she asked while eyeing Abby who was doing everything not to make eye contact.

"Miss, is this your room?" one of the officers asked.

She nodded.

"Ma'am we got a report of some loud music coming from this room. Care to explain?"

"Well, Officer I am getting married and we're here for a bachelorette party. We're leaving tomorrow so I guess my girls just wanted to enjoy what little time we have left in Vegas." Anamaria explained even though she knew full well these 'officers' were exotic dancers.

"Well, in that case, we'd love to help and join in on the celebration!" another officer yelled and began ripping off his shirt.

The girls screamed and cheered as the others did the same and Anamaria saw Abby use a remote to turn on the stereo. One dancer grabbed Anamaria and placed a pair of cold handcuffs on her wrists and led her to the couch. She was all smiles when he gave her a private dance. One of the dancers grabbed Lydia who suddenly tensed up and waved him off.

"Relax girl! Have some fun!" Abby shouted, having saw her refuse the dancer.

Lydia still felt awkward so she ducked out of sight and ran into one of the bedrooms. She retrieved her cell phone and quickly called Kieran. She would much rather be with him than any of those dancers anyway.

****

Kieran felt his phone vibrate as he sat on the bed in one of the rooms. He had found out that the escort's name was Heather and she had convinced him to go in the room for a private dance. He watched her dance naked in front of him and his eyes scanned her body but oddly enough he wasn't as turned on as he should have been.

He pulled his phone out of his phone and saw Lydia's name on the screen. He smiled and stopped Heather from dancing and shooed her out of the room. She sucked in her teeth and left the room. Kieran waited until she was fully out of sight before he answered the call.

"Hello?"

"Hey, I didn't wake you did I?"

"No, no one has even stifled a yawn yet. What about you? Are you guys asleep?" he replied.

"Nope. Some of Anamaria's friends hired some strippers so they are enjoying them right now."

"Why aren't you out there?" Kieran teased.

Lydia sighed. "I'm not really into it. Besides, I'd much rather hear your voice right now."

Kieran smiled. "That's sweet. What time will you guys be back in town?"

"Umm, we leave around three o'clock so around seven. Why?"

"Because I want to take you out on a real date; just me and you. What do you say?"

"Oh, w-well I g-guess so."

Kieran chuckled at her stammering. "I'm not making you nervous am I?"

He heard her chuckle.

"I will see you tomorrow Kieran."

"Good night gorgeous." he said and after she said good night he held the line until she disconnected.

He fell back on the bed and began to drift off to sleep with a smile on his face.
