I’ve just heard the taxi pull up outside five minutes early so I do some final touch ups to my hair and makeup before slipping my shoes on.
“Molls, the taxi is here. Are you ready?” I hear Ryan should as he comes down the stairs.
“Yes, two seconds.” I do one last check in the mirror before turning around, grabbing my bag then pulling the door open.
“Oh holy mother of god. You cannot go out like that, I’ll end up punching any guy who happens to look anywhere in your general direction.”
I just smile at him. “I got the right one then?” I knew instantly that the policewoman outfit was his favourite of all the ones I tried on, his eyes sparkled when he saw me and he was shifting very uncomfortably in his seat, it was really quite amusing to watch.
It’s a navy blue halterneck that is cut quite low. It has a full skirt with lace petticoat making it stand out with handcuffs hanging off the belt, a badge on my left breast and obviously a hat. I’ve paired it with a pair of black lace top hold ups that you can see the tops of when I move and high black platform heels the have silver chains on the back to match my handcuffs. Even I thought I looked pretty hot when I looked in the mirror.
“Yeah, apparently so, although I’m thinking you shouldn’t be allowed out wearing it, it should be banned for use in the bedroom only.”
“Oh for goodness sake Ry, everyone there will be dressed something like this, no one will even look twice.”
I give him the once over, he looks truly edible in his sharp black suit, even the chain and shiny shoes he complained about look great. I don’t think he’ll be the only one with some jealousy issues tonight. I just know the amount of attention he’s going to receive looking like that.
“Hmm,” he says as he watches me grab my coat, luckily it’s long enough to cover everything so I won’t look too out of place before we get to the club. Adam and Holly are meeting us there as they both live in the city.
“Come on.” I grab Ryan’s hand and pull him towards the front door, he does not look happy about this at all.
“I’m not going to be able to do anything I want to do to you tonight because you’re going with your ‘date’.” He sulks next to me in the car.
“That may be true but you’ll be the one I go home with at the end of the night and if you’re a good boy I might even let you sleep in my bed again.”
That perks him up a little. He turns his head and leans in to me. “Naked?” he whispers in my ear, his breath giving me goose bumps.
“Maybe.”
I hear him groan next to me.
Before long we are pulling up outside the club. Ryan pays the driver and we both get out. As soon as we enter the foyer of the club I spot both Adam and Holly. They are talking together in the corner, they must recognise each other from the night at the club.
“Here she is,” Adam says as he spots me. He comes racing over to me and goes to give me a kiss but I quickly turn my head so his lips land on my cheek, not my lips. I know Ryan is watching because I can feel his eyes burning into the back of my head. Maybe this is going to be harder than I thought. I look over to see Holly watching us as well. Suddenly I wonder if he has already told her something has happened between us, from the way she’s scowling at me, I’d say yes.
The four of us walk over to check our coats in. I watch Holly remove hers first to reveal a sexy little nurses outfit, to my surprise I hear Adam whistle next to me. Holly looks over her shoulder and gives him a sexy little smile. Adam then looks at me and raises an eyebrow, I feel less confident all of a sudden about showing off the outfit I know Ryan loves so much. I take a deep breath and pull it off my shoulders.
“Fuuuuuuck,” Adam says, looking me up and down.
I fidget feeling slightly uncomfortable with his perusal of my body. I glance over to Ryan to see his jaw set, the muscle in his neck pulsing and his fists are clenched tightly at his sides. I watch as Holly strokes his arm gently trying to get him to calm down.
Once I have handed my coat over I see Adam’s hand move like he is going to grab mine so I quickly lift my arm and scratch my nose. The only man I want touching me from now on is Ryan so until I can talk to Adam I’m just going to have to try to avoid it. He moves his hand to the small of my back instead and guides me to the stairs to join Shane, Chris and the rest of their guests. Ryan and Holly follow behind us, I can only imagine the look on his face.
Not long after we arrive they announce it’s time for dinner. There are loads of round tables filling the room. Each one has red and black feathers coming out of vases in the centre, it all looks a little burlesque to me, sexual and seductive. I can’t help thinking about how those are the last feelings I need to be having with Ryan and my date at the same party!
We all find our table then take our seats, I’m sat with Ryan to my left and Adam to my right. This should be interesting.
The dinner went okay, I guess. The food and wine were amazing, Shane and Chris did a good job choosing the catering. They look so happy, every time I glance over to them they are either staring at each other lovingly or laughing at something one of them said, it’s so lovely to see.
What wasn’t so good was Adam constantly trying to spark up a conversation with me, the conversation would have been fine as I’ve always found him easy to talk to. The problem was that under the table Ryan kept touching me up. That was making my conversation with Adam a challenge especially every time his hand got high enough to touch the edge of my knickers. I gently kept slapping his hand away but he just kept putting it back.
Just before the dessert plates were taken away Shane and Chris both stood up and cleared their throats.
“We know it’s not traditional to do speeches at a stag do, hell it’s not traditional to do a joint stag either so I don’t know what I’m worrying about.” This makes people laugh a little. “But we just wanted to say thank you to all of you that could come out, get dressed up and celebrate our up coming wedding with us. We also just wanted to take a minute to think of those who couldn’t be here tonight, just because they aren’t in the room doesn’t mean they aren’t always in our hearts.”
I look at Ryan and he swallows hard. We both know that Hannah would have been here with us right now, she was meant to be groomsmaid along side me. I lift my hand up and squeeze his shoulder. He looks over at me and quirks the corner of his mouth up.
“You okay?” I mouth to him. He just nods gently then looks down.
