Chapter 18 - karoake night (part 1)

Chapter 18

There's were a few cars outside his house, 'guess he's having a pre-party' Whip chuckled to himself I grabbed my bag and stepped out the car, he locked it and linked his arm with mine, we walked to the door and knocked gently, he moved his arm down to my hand and squeezed it gently, reassuring me everything would be fine. The door opened, it was Gonzo, we hadn't met before, he had a beer in his hand 'Kobi, whips here!!' I smiled and looked at Ryan who pulled a face of 'don't worry', I took a deep breath as Kobi came to the door, I saw Gonzo go back into the kitchen and heard 'is Charlie there?' 'Who's Charlie?' 'whippets girl', got to love them. Kobi smiled and hugged me, 'she's gorgeous whip' I looked down and stroked my arm with my hand blushing, 'she certainly is' squeezing my hand again, 'come in can I get you drinks?' We stepped inside 'I'll drive if you want a drink' I smiled 'nah we can get a taxi or something', oh good because it meant I would...possibly sing on the karaoke and I could have a good laugh. 'What you drinking Charlie?' 'Just a beer thanks' he handed me a bottle and me and whip walked through to the living room...

I was stood behind him, I felt safe behind him, 'heyy whip!' Most said in unison, it sounded like there were loads there, great...kobi came in walked past us, shoving Maxi off the sofa and kicked kerrbox's feet off the table 'what are ya doing!?' Maxi said in complete shock, just then I felt a hand grab mine, but it wasn't whippets...it was Kobi's he dragged me from behind Whippet and took me to the sofa which he'd pushed Maxi off, 'take a seat' he said motioning to the empty space, I counted roughly there were 8 guys there not including me and Whip. The room went rather quiet and Whip sat on the arm of the chair next to me, 'Charlie?' Mouse said eventually 'hey' I mumbled quietly, why was I so nervous, oh i know maybe it was due to the fact I was in a room with 8/9 men, most absolutley drop dead gorgeous, and 6 of them who I hardly knew...

'You look so different with your hair like that' Maxi was now on his knees looking at me smiling 'hopefully for the better' I giggled nervously, all the lads nodded. 'So for the guys who don't know, this is Charlie my girlfriend' he said it with such pride in his voice, 'so you're one of us now?' An older man from the corner said, Hoppo....I had to impress...'apparently so' I smiled at him 'well welcome to the madhouse' he laughed, the lads continued with their conversions, Mouse including me in half of his mentioning my cake, and Azza joined in, we heard a knock at the door, Chappo walked in 'hey' they all went again this gave me the giggles don't know why, surely it can't be the beer....'move up box' he wasn't shifting mouse got up from the chair and squeezed between me and Kerrbox so Chappo could have the chair. He was practically sat on my knee. Mouse smelt good too, but not as good as Whip.

'Right we ready to head off?' Kobi shouted as everyone quietened, all the lads got up and headed for the bar, Whip gave me a hand up and we walked out the door hand in hand. The bar we were going too was only down the road so wasn't far to walk. Good job really I don't think my feet would've lasted if not. When we got inside we had the place to ourselves at first, me and Whip got a table and went to the bar to get drinks. I watched him as he got up and stood leaning on the bar stool when a woman, slightly older than me waltzed in and threw herself at him. I frowned as I watched her, anger building up inside me, she was putting her arms around him, she kept kissing his cheek and stroking his back he kept taking her hands off him and telling her to go, he came over with the drinks I pretended like I hadn't noticed, but it began to niggle away at me 'who was that?' I asked cautiously 'an ex' okay!!! Best not go deeper into that...'I didn't touch her she was all over me' he began to babble 'yeah ino, I saw' I held his hand and noticed she was staring at us.

The music was blaring, all kinds, some of the other people in the bar had had a go on the karaoke but none of our lads. Then the Macarena came on, Maxi and Harries were first on the dance floor and then Mouse, all swaying their bum and doing a little jump, however safe to say they didn't know the moves, 'they're doing that soooo wrong' I giggled at whippet 'go show em!' Ohh hell no! Too late... he grabbed me and pulled me onto the dance floor, I began doing the actions in beat and the lads all copied, anyone looking would think what the hell? Then the bum sway bit came, I shut my eyes and wiggled away and jumped, I was doing well in heels so far! Then I continued the dance, I was really getting into when Whip's ex came onto the dance floor 'hey, just know you will never live up to what I was' 'oh what's that an attention seeking Barbie doll?' (NOTE: I call girls who have spray tans to the point they are orange and dye their hair bleached white and they look like they have spiders on their eyelashes barbies) she looked at me stunned and began to hurl abuse at me, the guys came behind me and then whippet coming behind me holding my waist , they all hurled abuse back sticking up for me, that felt brilliant! She looked me up and down and strutted off, falling over in her wedges 'oh, and learn to walk in heels' Harries shouted. This got us all laughing. 'Thanks for sticking up for me' I smiled 'no trouble, Barbie doll, that's a new one' Maxi laughed 'why is she a barbie doll' He continued, I then went onto describing a Barbie and they all agreed she was one...'you've pretty much described Harries when he dresses up Kerrbox laughed, Harries pretended to twist his hair around his finger playfully girly slapping box.

The night was moving on and still no one had been up on the karaoke out of the guys...I took a deep breath and stood up, 'where you going?' 'Singing!' He raised his eyebrows up at me 'really! Care to join me?' He shook his head, they rescued hundreds of people, deal with bluebottles and death...but they were scared to sing on a karaoke...sheesh! I got up on the stage,the DJ wanted to choose a song for me...good idea or not? Shania Twain 'man I feel like a woman came on' was he kidding me....cheese factor! However much I loved her....the music began i closed my eyes to block out everyone, why did i come and do this.....was i completely off my rocker! i began to sing...'I'm going out tonight, feeling alright, gonna let it all hang out' people turned to look at me in shock, god was I bad? But then they started tapping their feet, the lads turned to look at me, that was it I was dancing around the stage swaying my hips 'man I feel like a woman!' People began to dance, and joined in on the chorus if they knew it, best feeling ever! The lads tapping on the tables smiling at me, Whip in absolute amazement, the song finished and I pulled a funny little pose. Everyone clapped and I climbed down from the stage to all the lads clapping at me, I sat down, all hot and flustered cheeks going a shade of red. 'She sings too!? Is there any end to her talents!?' Reidy laughed.

The night from them on was hilarious, Maxi and Reidy had nicked this girls scarf and began to sing 'its raining men', i went upto the DJ and asked if they had a certain song, then the guitar began to play, Maxi and Chappo were up there like a shot 'well the truth, well it hurts to say' and then the chorus 'LOVER LOVER LOVER! YOU DONT TREAT ME NO GOOD NO MORE' everyone sang that with them, after watching their video online so many times the song i grew to love. the only one who hadn't sung...was Whippet...i wanted to sing 'you're the one that i want''come sing with me I whispered in his ear 'which song?' 'My favourite' 'Charlie you have several' the man had a point...'You're the one that I want' I laughed he sighed deeply and stood up, all the lads cheered at us he grabbed his mike and gave me a look of hollllyyyy shittttt. The music began, everyone was silent... He sang 'I got chills they're multiplying, and I'm losing control!' I was in stitches, but god he was good! 'You better shape up' I continued we sounded good, and everyone else thought so too...
