Xaden never goes to places like this.
The club music is loud, thrumming in his ears to his chest and down to his boots. Girls dance on stages, all in several forms of undress. Men catcall and whistle and throw money at the girls. He was never interested in the adult industry as he never needed it, but his buddies wanted to go out and see something different, so he agreed to go.
He wasn't really interested in watching the girls, just sitting off to the side while his friends whistle at a completely made up red headed woman who's probably had more surgeries than years alive. But then his eyes catch on a crowd across the club, where a large group of people gathered around a stage with the name "Diamond" splayed above it. Must be the best girl they have.
Xaden freezes when he sees you step out. No. It's been years since he's seen you, his childhood friend. How did you end up here?!
You start your routine, making sure to tease just enough that has all the men around you drooling and spending their life savings. You slowly look up as you spin around your pole, catching on a broad figure towards the back of the club. Your stomach drops when you see Xaden.
Bodhi, who by now is pretty tipsy, chuckles as he looks over at Xaden. "Go pay her, man...! She's not just dancing for nothing!"
Xaden's jaw tenses as he suddenly pushes off the wall and towards where you are doing your routine.
