Chapter 7 The New Job Comes With A Big Sister

As soon as I walk out of the warehouse's big metal door I can't wait to get home and tell the girls my good news! I can't believe I've finally found a job! At this point I don't care who I'm working for, or what I have to do, I'm stoked!

I'm so excited I started screaming the good news as soon as I walk into the apartment almost an hour later. Both women are speechless at first, but quickly jump up from their same places on the couch they were in when I left, to engulf me in an excited hug.

Since it's still the weekend, the three of us decide to celebrate like rock stars for the rest of the night! Meaning, the three of us get comfortable back on the couch. Then ordered a small fortune of chinese take-out, and drink a bottle of wine between us. While I give them all the details of my meeting with Joe, the new job, and the agreement I made with my uncle to pay my tuition. Joss and Tess are both stunned at that last bit of information, but they don't dwell on it either.

"Don't look a gifted horse in the mouth. Know what I mean?" Tess gave me that nugget of advice during our third glass of wine.

To which Joss and I dissolve into hysterics, and Tess follows soon after. Then we spend the rest of the night trying to top one another with the worst piece of advice we've ever heard. While finishing off another bottle of wine, and crashing soon after.

The next morning I'm the first one to wake up again, so I silently make my way around the apartment getting ready for the day. Then fix myself a much needed cup of coffee, and two pieces of toast for lunch. I clean everything up once I'm finished. Before silently walking out the front door of the apartment, and down the street to my car. Opening the driver side door quickly and taking a seat.

This is the only place I could think of that can give me both quiet and solitude for what I have to do next. It's time for me to call mom, and break the news about me not coming home at all during the summer break.

I pull my phone from my pants pocket, and close my eyes as I take a deep breath. After a long moment I open my eyes, and start to shakily scroll through the contacts in my phone. Until I reach her number, and send up a silent prayer as I press call.

I hear the sound of the first ring come through my speaker and begin to panic. Quickly ending the call before Mom can answer. I stare down at the phone's screen in disbelief as the panic feelings inside me go crazy.

Before my brain can even process my options for what to do next, Mom is calling me back. I try to calm myself down fast before hitting the green accept icon.

"Hello?" I ask tentatively like I don't know who it is already.

"Hey baby! It's your mom. Or, have you forgotten all about me by now?" Mom asks trying to be funny.

"Of course I know who you are Mom. I could never forget you. Trust me. How are you?"

"I'm doing great baby, but it seems like I haven't talked to you in forever, though. I miss you! When are you coming home?" Mom said sending daggers straight to my heart.

I close my eyes again giving myself a moment before saying anything else. Then run my tongue across my lips wetting them. Finally I clear my throat a little and start to speak.

"I miss you too Mom so much, but I have some bad news."

Mom and I stay on the phone for the next hour talking. Thankfully she isn't as upset as I thought about me not coming home. It seems Shawn Greer, the guy she's been dating for months now, is taking her on a two week vacation the first part of July. Which is really great news! After being alone all these years I'm glad she's finally getting to enjoy life again!

But, the truly hilarious thing about that is, mom didn't know how to break her news to me either! The guilt of leaving me all alone for the last two weeks of my stay was driving her crazy. At least now she won't have to worry about me, and can enjoy her first vacation, or better yet a man's company, since I've been born!

Before we get off the phone she made me promise to FaceTime her at least once a week, be safe, and not to get into any trouble this summer. The typical parental warnings and reminders. Followed by repeated professions of her love. Before abruptly ending the call, and leaving me with a lot less to worry about!

With the one and only thing on my 'to do list' complete. I get out of my car with a crazed smile on my face, and skip back down the sidewalk into the apartment. Closing the door quietly behind me, so the other girls won't wake up, and going back to my make-shift room to sleep for the rest of the day.

By Wednesday afternoon I'm bored out of my mind staying cooped up inside the apartment all day! There is only so much cleaning one person can do, and so much tv you can watch before it begins to drive you insane! Thankfully I get a notification for a new text message on my phone around one. I scramble around on the couch for my phone. Almost dropping the device twice before I can read the message.

'Hi Abbie. My name is Mel Blu. I've been tasked with getting you ready for your first day. I was hoping we could meet up this weekend, and get most of it out of the way. How does that work for you?'

I let out a little squeal after reading Mel's message, and quickly send her my reply. 'This weekend is perfect for me. Just name the time and place, and I can meet you there.'

My anxiety levels start to climb while I wait on her reply. I start chewing on my bottom lip as I stare a hole into the screen of my phone. Thankfully Mel doesn't leave me waiting for her text long.

'Great! How about Saturday morning say ten o'clock? On the corner of 8th Ave and Chelsea?'

'Great! See you then!' I send back immediately.

'This is going to be so much fun! See you then!'

I read over mine and Mel's entire text exchange numerous times the next two days. It only took me an hour to have them memorized word for word, but my nerves and excitement had to be sure it was real! The only downside is, I wish I would have asked Mel what my job actually is, or better yet what the name of the club I'll be working in is actually called. I didn't bother asking Joe the day he offered me the job, but now I'm dying to find out!

I barely get any sleep Friday night, because of the nervous energy flowing through my system for tomorrow. But, on a brighter note, I'm up super early Saturday morning. Quietly I get up, dressed, and out the door at exactly nine in the morning.

It doesn't take me long to hail a cab amidst the other morning commuters on their way to work. And, try as I might, I can't make my body stop nervously moving around the entire forty-five minute ride to my destination. I start sweating the closer I get, but for a new reason altogether. I forgot to ask Mel what she looked like, or what she would be wearing, so I would know who to meet once I get there!

I'm so worked up by the time the cabby comes to a stop I'm trying not to hyperventilate. I slide a wad of bills through the divider and give the driver my thanks. Then jump out of the cab before the driver notices the scared shitless look on my face, and lean my back up against the first storefront I see. While the yellow cab zooms away.

I bend over to put my hands on my knees, and close my eyes. Breathing in several deep breaths then letting the out trying to calm down. Once I feel like I'm back in control I stand back up, and take my first glimpse at the buildings around me.

There are several big cloth and fabric stores on both sides of the busy street. As well as a few places that have blank storefront, but really catchy names. Immediately peaking my interest to see what's inside. Except I stay where I am for now.

About ten minutes later I feel a small tap on my left shoulder. I swing my wide eyed gaze around to look at the owner of the fingers, and immediately feel like I've been sucker punched! The smiling woman beside me looks like a fucking Victory Secret Model!

The blonde bombshell is a full head taller than me. Putting her at about five feet nine inches tall, and giving her the appearance of mile long legs. She has the magazine preferred perfect figure. The skin tight leather outfit and boots highlighting every detail of her hourglass figure. The sky blue eyes and creamy skin tone is just icing on the cake.

The strange gives my face and body a once over just the same as me. Before looking back into my eyes, and giving me a megawatt smile. While sticking her left hand out between us for me to shake.

"You must be Abbie. I'm Mel Blu and Big Sister at the club!"

I hesitantly slide my hand inside her and give it a small shake. While trying to make my lips form into some semblance of a welcoming smile. "Nice to meet you, Mel."

"EEHHH! I'm so excited for this!" Mel squeals before pulling me into a bone crushing hug. "You're my first Little at the club. So, I have everything planned out for your orientation!"

I give Mel an awkward pat on the back before pulling my body from her embrace. I manage to take a single step back away from her. Before looking back at her quizzically.

"I'm sorry! I hope I didn't freak you out." Mel quickly tries to apologize.

But, I quickly wave her comment off with a chuckle. "Nah. It takes a lot more than that to scare me off, but I do have a question."

"Shoot!" Mel says pointing her fingers like a gun and firing.

"Well, what exactly does a Big Sister do?" I ask her, but my eyes are focused on the ground.

"That's easy. I'm here to show you the ropes, get you ready with everything you could possibly need, and answer any questions you have. That doesn't sound so bad, does it?" Mel finishes with another megawatt smile directed at me.

I let her answer roll around in my head for a moment. Before shaking my head, and finally looking back up at her. "No, I guess not. But, well, I should have asked my Uncle this last week, but what exactly is my job? And what type of club is this?"

Mel entire body seems to freeze then. It doesn't even look like she's breathing let alone blinking. Until she seems to shake it off, and gives me another one of those creepy smiles.

"What do you mean?"

I blow out a frustrated breath. Then look over her shoulder instead of directly in her eyes as I explain. "Well, I was so excited to finally land a job I forgot to even ask what type of job it is. Or better yet where! Plus my Uncle Joe and I don't really talk, so I didn't think it would be right to call and bug him with all my questions. It just didn't feel right. Will you?"

Mel gives me a blank stare for several moments. Then the smile on her face turns into a devious smirk. Before she wraps her arm through mine, and begins to pull me down the street. Closer and closer to the mysterious store that caught my eye earlier.

"Oh this is going to be SO much fun now! Unfortunately Sherry, my boss gave me strict instructions on what I need to do with you, and exactly what I can say. Which means I can only answer one of those right now." Mel tells me as she pulls me through the front door of the store, and back behind a heavy curtain. Before letting me go to look around in stunned wonder.

One side of the store is filled with shelves displaying every sex toy on the market. Towards the back of the store is different size and shape whips and canes, mask, ball gags, and spreader bars. In one corner is a purple electric orb, and tons of other electrical gadgets displayed behind it. On the other wall is various role play outfits and risque lingerie that a single person can imagine.

I turn my horrified, but secretly curious gaze back toward Mel, and whisper my next words to her. "Which question is that?"

Mel's shit eating grin just grows bigger as she crosses her arms over her chest in a completely relaxed pose. "Honey, you're the newest GEM at Sinful Delights. An exclusive members-only sex club here in the city. Where all of your fantasies can come true." Then finishes by winking at me.

I gulp so loud Mel and the lone store clerk thirty feet from me can hear it. I frantically shake my head at Mel, but she just ignores me. Instead she wraps her arm back through mine. Then turns me back around to see the rest of the goodies on display. She starts to pull me toward the fetish-wear display. While also reciting off a list to me of things I need. Essentially shutting me up for now.

"Today we are going to start off light. Just a few outfits, and maybe a costume or two just in case. Then we'll go across the street, and let you try on some shoes. You'll need at least four different pairs, and they must be comfortable enough for you to walk around in. Trust me! After we get the shopping out of the way, I'll take you to lunch around the corner, and try to answer as many questions for you that I can. Okay?"

I don't even realize my head starts to nod at her in answer. With the words SEX CLUB repeating on a loop in my brain, and getting louder after each time. So, I remain quiet, and let Mel pull me around to wherever.

By the time we leave the store almost an hour later I'm the proud owner of three lace bra and panty sets. One white with pink stripes, one is black with red pinstripes, and the last is an intricately designed royal blue set. Each set comes with matching garter belts, and thigh-high stockings with the seams going up the middle of my legs in the back.

Despite my protest Mel insists I get the last one saying it makes my eyes pop, and compliments my skin tone amazingly. Marching the lingerie set to the clerk on her own. Before paying for everything else, and finally pulling me out of the store.

But, we don't make it that far. Only going across the street to another non-descriptive store. That after first look seems to only sell shoes thankfully. Where the crazed woman picks out a pair of Louboutin and Jimmy Choo heels for me, and then paying for another pair for her also on the same charge card.

Both of our arms are loaded down with bags as we leave the second store. Mel walks right beside me down the busy street, and around the corner. Before ushering me into a small little cafe close by. I follow her to a small table in the back that's clear of anyone else around it, and place my bags down on the floor beside me as I take my seat.

Within seconds a young girl comes around to take our order. Then leaves just as fast as she appeared. An uncomfortable silence begins to form between us, but Mel doesn't let it get any worse. Before breaking the silence, and my focus back to her.

"Now then, how about we get back to those questions." Mel says giving me an encouraging smile.

I take a deep calming breath, and close my eyes as I exhale. I can't bring myself to open them yet as I start to speak either.

"I'm sorry about earlier. When I came to My Uncle about a job in his club, I didn't know what type of club it was, or what I would even be doing there. I was just desperate for any type of income, so I could still pay my tuition to go to NYU next semester." I mumble out to her. Before opening my eyes, and burning my gaze directly into hers. "You said I'm the newest GEM at the club. What exactly does that entail?"

I could guess what most of it is on my own. But, for once, I wanted two plus two to not equal four.

"Well, let's see." Mel says before stopping as the waitress comes back to the table with our snacks and drinks. Setting everything done in front of us then leaving. I watch Mel take a sip from her water, and place it back down on the table.

"Before I get into all that. I need to ask you a bit of a personal question."

I give her a silent nod, and wait.

"How much sexual experience do you have already?" Mel asks me like it's no big deal before taking a bite of her sandwich.

My cheeks instantly flame in embarrassment. While my gaze instantly falls to my lap. "Not much." I whisper to Mel.

"How much is not much? I need a baseline to start with Abbie."

My entire face and neck are burning red by this point, but I manage to bring my gaze up to look at her before speaking. "Until now, I've never had a boyfriend, but I have kissed two guys. I've also slept with both of them."

Mel gives me a strange look. Then doubles over the table in laughter. My anger starts to rise the longer she goes on, until I can't take it anymore.

"Please enlighten me on why that seems to be so funny!" I growl at the end.

Mel sobers up then, and looks at me with unshed tears in her eyes. "Oh Doll! If that threw you for a loop earlier. Then get ready for, because what I'm about to tell you will make you want to take a row boat over Niagara Falls!"

Well, that sounds like a splendid idea!

"What's the rest then?" I ask voice shaking from nerves.

"As the newest GEM you will be working Down The Rabbit Hole. In my opinion, it's one of, if not THE, best job at the club. The club is only open the first Saturday of the month. Sherry gives out new assignments each month. Then once you're in place, you just close your eyes, relax, and feel. I guarantee you now, it's like nothing you've ever experienced before! Every month it seems to get better, and more out of this world than the last, for me."

I know there is a LOT of information Mel is leaving out to avoid causing me to have a melt down, but let's recap. My estranged Uncle, gave me a job at his sex club. As the newest plaything to be used for sex, I'm assuming. How lovely! I let my head fall forward onto the table, and a loud groan slips out of my mouth.

Immediately Mel tries to make me feel better. "Hey, I promise you now, it's really not that bad. Everyone at the club is there to have a good time, and it's even more fun for us in The Hole. Truse me."

With those two words my head comes up from the table instantly, and I give Mel a deadpan stare. Not believing her for a single second!

Which she obviously reads in my eyes for herself. So, she lets out a deep breath in resignation. Before trying to convince me again.

"How about this then. I want you to come try it for one night. If it's not for you, I'll tell the boss to move you somewhere else, or find a different place for you altogether. I won't let you down I promise." Mel and I stare at each other. Me expressionless, and her with a hopeful look on her face, and almost vibrating in her seat from excitement. "Here's your chance to live a little Abbie! What do you say?"

My Mom's life lesson comes back to me right then. "When it comes time for you to choose. Whatever you do, don't make the wrong choice." I honestly have no idea what to do! All I do know is I've been cautious all my life, and Trevor still managed to turn my world upside down! Maybe it's time I do live a little.

What's the worst that can really happen after all?

I close my eyes and take a deep breath. Before uttering the three simple words that seal my fate. "Okay, I'm in."

Mel jumps up from her seat in excitement, and pulls me up into her arms. While keeping the table between us. "AHH! This is going to be so fucking fun! You'll see!"

"Mel..can't..breath!" I managed to wheeze out as she crushes me in her vice like grip.

Mel lets me go with a chuckle, and I fall back down to my seat. After I catch my breath both of us finish eating. While also making plans to meet up tomorrow for the last part of my orientation. Half an hour later Mel and I leave the cafe, and into separate cabs for now.

I get the driver to drop me off a block away from the apartment, so I can stash all my bags in the trunk of my car. I don't want the girls to see them and start hounding me for information about them. Unfortunately Joss and Tess start in with the questions as soon as I walk through the front door. There is absolutely no way I'm going to tell them the truth about where I'm working, or going to do. Neither of them would believe me anyways. Who would, really? Instead I keep my answers vague, and make it seem like all I'll be doing is some waitressing. Thankfully they accept my answers, and don't push any further. Even letting me call it an early night without a fight. After I tell them about my meeting the next day to finish my orientation.

It takes me a while to get up and moving Sunday morning, but after three cups of black coffee time zooms by. Then it's time for me to meet Mel at the Salon and Spa she told me about yesterday.

I walk through the door of the small chic salon with more than five minutes to spare. As I walk up to the receptionist to give her my name, I look around the shop for Mel, but don't see her anywhere. I come to a stop in front of a petite raven haired punk princess, and give her a warm smile.

"Hi I'm Abbie Black. I'm suppose to have an appointment."

The woman begins to beam as soon as I say my name. "Nice to meet you Abbie! Mel has already informed me with everything we need to do for you today, so let's go ahead and get started." She says before turning around, and waving for me to follow her.

"Is Mel not coming?" I ask her nervously wondering what Mel has told her already.

I follow the woman into the spa part of the salon. She leads me into a room with a masseuse table, and ushers me inside. "Go on and get undressed. There is a blanket on the bed for you to cover up with. Then I want you to lay down on your stomach, and get comfortable. I'll be back in a few minutes." She closes the door without saying anything more.

I can't believe Mel booked me a massage! I've never had one before. She might now be so bad after all.

I'm in a great mood as I get undress, and position myself on the table like requested. The entire time singing Mel's praises in my head. Even thinking of something special I can do for her as a thank you surprise. Thirty minutes later that thought has completely flown the coop!

I'm going to KILL Mel Blu as soon as I see her!

My amazing massage turns out to be my first fucking full body wax! I'm smoother than a newborn baby's ass in places I shouldn't be. No woman should ever have to go through that type of cruel and unusual punishment!

Once my torturer lets me down from the table, I waddle back towards the front of the salon. Mel is waiting for me in her own salon chair. While another stylist is in the process of putting foils in her hair, so I can't jump on here now, unfortunately. I'd feel bad if I messed up the stylist hard work that's all!

"Do you feel as fresh as a baby, Abbie?" Mel ask me with a wink.

"I'm just fucking grand!" I grumble back at her as I get comfortable in the stylist chair next to her.

"Well, just relax and get ready to be pampered, the hard part's over now." Mel tells me while still chuckling.

I take her advice and close my eyes while the other lady works on me. She adds different light colored streaks to my dark hair. Then finishes the look by adding big finger waves to my hair, like a model from the pin-up era.

Mel has her do my makeup next. Making my skin appear flawless with a soft glow. While my eyes pop from the thick line of black outlining them, and giving them a cat-like quality. Or, so both Mel and the stylist said, because the refuse to let me see until I'm completely finished. Which is thankfully right after I finish a mani-pedi, and coat of royal blue nail polish at Mel's request.

Once the team is finally done with me, they let me look in the mirror for the first time. The woman looking back at me can't be me! She is a dark haired goddess. Nothing is left of me, the original model. Instead I've been polished, buffed, and completely upgraded until I don't even see me anymore!

Mel comes up behind me while I'm gawking at myself in the mirror, squealing in excitement. "Just what I imagined! You are smoking hot, girl! What do you think?"

"That can't be me." I whisper pointing at the woman looking back at me in disbelief.

"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and that's a lot to behold, babe! You ready to knock 'em dead next weekend at the club with this new Abbie?"

I turn back to the mirror, and try to see myself the way Mel does. It takes me a few minutes, but it finally starts to click. The woman standing in the mirror isn't the same Abbie Black from nowhere Virginia, not anymore. This new Abbie standing here in her place can do anything she wants! This new Abbie is confident, sexy, and worthy of all the looks and attention sent her way. The master of her own destiny, and I plan on owning that mantra for all it's worth!

I give myself a final once over in the mirror before smiling like a fiend. "Hell Yeah! Abbie Black is ready for anything."

********************************

So My Lovelies, What do y'all think?!?!?

I have edited this chapter, but for some reason when I uploaded it my fonts didn't change this time. I'm not exactly sure why either. But if y'all wouldn't mind I can't find where all of Abbie's thoughts are, that's what needs to be changed, so if y'all come across those parts can you point them out for me?!?!

Don't forget the rest of the typos or errors I've forgotten?!? 

Y'all are absolutely amazing! Until next time folks!
