Gia's Beginning

24.

DELANO POV

"Are you sure you don't want me to drop you to the job interview?" I asked. Gia found a job rather quickly. But she claims the interview is at seven tonight. Which I found odd but I don't question her. "No I'm good" she smiled.

Watching her fluff up her hair and grab her bag... she raced out the door.

Something wasn't right here.

GIA POV

Not that Angie would be proud of me for doing what she suggested. But I needed money and I wanted to move from Delano knowing I can support myself by any means necessary.

Opening the heavy ass door a big tall muscle guy stopped me "excuse me?! Club is closed. Come back at Nine".

"Oh no! I'm here to see Jake" I smiled.

He eyed me up and down and shook his head "follow me". I couldn't tell Delano where I was going. He wouldn't have let me go.

Walking through the red colored walls to this big black door. The heavy set muscle guy buzzed a button and the door opened "didn't I say don't interrupt me?".

Seeing a girl come from under his table wiping her mouth she stormed past me.

"Sorry sir! But she had an interview with you" the heavy set pointed to me. Jake looked over at me "come on in take a seat". Walking in cautiously I slowly sat down.

"So..." he asked.

"Gia" I said.

He nodded "Gia... pretty name".

I smiled "thanks".

"So you want to work here? Why? How old are you?" He asked.

"I need money and a old friend recommended this place to me. And I'm soon to be seventeen" I answered.

"How soon?" He asked.

"In like six months" I answered.

He rubbed his chin "I don't usually do this. But I'll let you do one night. If all goes well you'll be hired. Deal?".

I nodded "deal".

"Also before anything I get ten percent of what you make. No funny business" he said.

I shrugged "okay".

"See you at nine" he smiled.

The feeling of finally being able to support myself was a wonderful feeling. But I wouldn't be able to leave and come back. So instead I walked to the outside mall to see if I could find something to wear on my first night.

Walking into the store I saw all the skimpy wear and lingerie. Looking at the price tag I was like hell no! When has cloth gotten so expensive?!. Glancing around to see the workers not paying me any attention. I slipped the lingerie into my bag. Then continued to look around before leaving. I've never stolen before... but I don't have any money currently.

Moving my feet so fast out the door and not believing I got away with that.

Nervousness started hitting me around the time came closer to nine. I made my way back into the club where the heavy set man led me to the dressing room. It smelled so bad in there.

"The women here are dirty" he said.

My face must've shown him exactly what I was smelling. Putting my bag down I slowly got dressed. Once I was done I liked the way I looked. Heavy set guy came back "ready?".

I nodded.

"What song would you like to dance to?" He asked.

I really didn't know.

Shrugging my shoulders.

He nodded "let her dance to Need to know by doja". I guess that was okay. Once the base made the floor vibrate my body went along with it. Now I've never done this before but you wouldn't know it if you saw me dance. A few men raced to the stage just in awe.

Seeing the dollar bills flying at me made me so happy. Talk about easy money. Once my show was done I grabbed all the singles off the floor and ran to the back.

Not counting it until I left. Jake stopped me mid way "Gia you did very well for someone with Bo experience. The men love you. Make sure you are here same time every night but Sunday's".

I nodded "okay".

When I got back to Delano's home he turned to look at me as I walked through the door "why do you smell like cigarettes?".

"Cigarettes? You're saying I stink?" I asked.

He nodded "you reek. Where were you?".

"Just out to clear my mind... but I'm also tired too" I yawned.

He just went back to what he was doing and I raced to the bathroom to shower. That was close.
