Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 8
She cleaned his clock with her mouth and stood up. Josh redid his pants and held out her string.
"Keep it" she said "as a memento from a wonderful first meeting." He smiled and pulled her close to him, kissing her for the last time before they had to go.
"You don't mind your own taste eh" she said when they walked back.
"Nope, and I love yours so expect a call soon" he said smiling. Sondra smiled at his remark and hugged him, planting a chaste kiss on his lips.
"I am giving a pool party in three weeks, consider yourself invited
as a special guest, a very special guest" she grinned "give me your
card and I'll send over an invite."
Josh reached for his cards, took one and wrote his new cell number on the back with a smiley.
When she looked at his card and saw all his former companies listed, she reassessed her opinion of him, not only handsome and young but smart as well.
She liked the fact that Josh wasn't just a boy toy but a smart kid with all the right moves, he would get far in this town she figured.
"This is my stop Josh, he's having dinner at the sphere so enjoy the rest of the night and thanks for making it so much fun, till we meet again" Sondra said giving him a last hug and walked towards the elevators.
Josh wandered around a bit, looking at all the celebrities and beautiful women before entering what looked like to be a fantasy inn.
His stomach let him know that some food would be welcome and at the bar he ordered a fantasy sandwich.
He washed it down with a beer and turned to look around. Megan was right, there were quite a few standard costumes,
Legolas being favorite. Glad he followed her advice to try something different, he felt original.
Continuing his sightseeing, Josh walked into the garden that was connected to the inn.
Despite it being indoors, it looked real enough, the magic of Hollywood he thought to himself.
He was halfway through when he heard an altercation. Moving quickly to where he had heard the sound come from, he entered a lover's alcove and saw a Jedi slap an elf princess in the face.
Josh saw that the guy was rather big so opted for a bluff instead of a physical confrontation.
Besides, he didn't want to come up on charges if he did beat up the guy.
"Sir, you will release her immediately or will be forced to arrest you on assault charges."
The man let go of her wrist at once and looked startled around, squinting at Josh.
Only then did Josh notice a red and angry palm print on his face and saw glasses lying on the ground near a bush. Moving in closer with a determined stride, Josh quickly kicked the glasses further under the bushes, hoping that the guy would have bad eye sight. "Please explain yourself" Josh followed up in keeping with his act.
"This whore told me she couldn't make it tonight but instead she
was here with someone else." "Is she your wife or girlfriend?" Josh asked sternly knowing where
this would lead to.
"No, she's a call girl okay" the man almost shouted, getting angry again.
"Sir" Josh asked in a no nonsense tone of voice "are you freely admitting that you came here with a paid date, in other words a solicitation?"
The man then stopped and looked surprised at Josh.
Josh turned his attention to the girl who had sat down while Josh grilled the man.
Her lip was think and bleeding, her make up running from her tears.
"Would you like to press charges miss?" Josh asked her. She didn't reply, just shook her head no.
"Very well then, I suggest that you remove yourself from this area and leave this woman alone or will press charges, now move buster Josh almost shouted against the big guy. Unsure of himself the man walked briskly away, cursing under his breath.
Josh moved closer to the girl and offered her a tissue. "Are you alright miss?" Josh asked softly in a kind voice.
"I'll be fine officer" she replied "thank you for coming to my rescue."
"I am not a cop miss, just a guest like you but he was too big for me to take so I thought I'd bluff my way with him."
Only then did she look up and saw his face and costume. A faint smile appeared on her face and she said "thank you for your bravery then."
She opened her purse and got her phone out, starting to send a text message.
"Could you wait with me for a little while?" she asked "until my boss gets here?"
"Sure" Josh said and sat down next to her "I'm Josh, what's your name?"
"Melody and I am pleased to meet you Josh." When she was done texting, she gave him a good stare and asked
"how old are you?"
Turning a bit red Josh answered "seventeen."
That made her smile reach her eyes until she grimaced from pain from her hurt lip.
"Very brave indeed Melody continued "are you alone here tonight?"
"No, I am with my dad and his date but they were discussing business so I decided to wonder around."
"Good thing you did, for me at least" she sighed and tried to repair some of her makeup.
They spend a few minutes in silence when finally her boss arrived accompanied by a huge man dressed as Morpheus, only bigger and blacker.
Josh got up, nodded at the new arrivals and said to Melody "I hope the rest of the night will be more fun for you, take care." She smiled at him mouthing thanks one more time.
He was about to walk out when the big guy said "hold on sport."
"Could you tell me what happened?" he asked in a deep voice. Josh nodded and moved with him out the lover's corner onto the main path.
Giving him the short rundown, the guy grinned and finally laughed out loud in such a fashion that Josh couldn't help but laugh as well.
"Well done sport" he said "my name is Burt and I am a pro bodyguard, should you ever need help in that regard, give me a call, I am liking you a lot" and gave Josh his card.
Josh did the same and wrote down his new number on the back.
"Just in case you need help" Josh joked and both laughed again. "I'll better see to Melody, thanks again sport" Burt said and moved back into the corner.
Almost halfway back to the inn, Josh heard his name being called. Tuming around he saw the woman that accompanied Burt walking briskly towards him.
She was a stunning sight, commanding in her presence and from a distance looked a lot like Beyonce. Her white semi translucent dress flowing around her and her long dark brown hair held tight
by a tiara. Josh waited until she had reached him, noticing the differences
with Beyonce as she came closer to him. "Thank you for waiting Josh" she said a little flushed "No problem miss
"Do you know who am?" she asked looking him up and down,
taking stock. "Nope" Josh said "but I know what you are."
She raised her eyebrow at his statement and laughed when he continued to say "absolutely gorgeous."
"Sweet talk will get you everywhere Josh" she replied grinning "do you need to be somewhere or do you have a few minutes?" "I have all the time in the world so sure, what can I do for you?"
