Frenni's Nightclub - Entrance

May 9, 2018
12:33 PM

Damien walked along the street toward the nightclub, flanked by two other guys. One of them had messy, brown hair and blue eyes, standing around the same height as Damien. This was Allen. The other was slightly taller than them with a bald head, faint stubble on his face, and a pair of sunglasses: Davis.

The two of them were friends of Damien from college. Allen went on to be some high-dollar pencil pusher at an office conglomerate. Davis became the chief of security for a bank. Today, however, all three men were just looking for a good place to relax. Damien suggested visiting the nightclub. It's his day off, after all.

Allen: "You're sure you can cop us some VIP spots, bro? Frenni's keeps a pretty tight list on who gets the action."

Damien: "I'm sure my boss will be able to offer something to make it worthwhile. You two will have fun."

Allen: "You're not going to partake?"

Damien: "Not... my style." Damien shrugged his shoulders as they rounded a corner.

The three men continued down the street for a time until they rounded another corner, standing before the nightclub. There was already a long line of people waiting to get inside as the same bouncer from Damien's first day was manning the entrance. Allen and Davis regarded the nightclub in awe as a grin formed on Allen's face.

Allen: "Fap nights at Frenni's. ~"

Damien: "That's disgusting." He shot a questioning glance to his friend.

Allen: "Disgust - dude, you're the night guard for a sex club."

Damien: "Meh. I see it as 'adult entertainment'." He shrugged his shoulders as they walked towards the entrance.

The bouncer gave a simple nod to Damien as the three of them approached but regarded Allen and Davis with a weary look.

Bouncer: "Morning, Damien. Friends of yours...?"

Damien: "Yeah... I just wanted to show them around the place on my day off. That's not a bad thing, is it?"

The bouncer carefully studied Allen and Davis for a few moments, then shrugged his shoulders.

Bouncer: "Works for me."

He stepped aside, motioning the three men to the entrance. Damien offered a smile to the bouncer as he and his friends entered the club, earning a few groans and mean looks from the crowd of people waiting in line.

. . .

Allen and Davis looked around the club in awe, seeing multiple patrons walking around or sitting in front of the main stage.

Allen: "Whoa, bro..."

Davis: "It's not what I was expecting."

Damien rubbed the back of his head, whistling.

Damien: "Yeah... the decor doesn't seem like much for a nightclub, I'll admit. Then again... people don't really come here for the interior design, y'know?"
