Moving On From My Mate

Chapter 2

"Ms.Gilbert! Wake up! This is no time for sleeping!" Mr.Wade yelled at me. I lifted up my head and looked at him tiredly. It's been two months of being here and having barely any time to sleep now that my hours increased at the club since the guys love me. "I'm sorry Mr.Wade" I muttered already falling back to sleep. "Go to the principle's office and sort this situation out, I don't have time I'm teaching a class" he ordered as he ran his hands through his blonde hair. I slowly got up and grabbed my stuff. I walked in and the old lady looked at me shocked. "Oh dear, you don't look too well" she pointed out. I nodded with my eyes half closing. "Uh, the principle is ready for you" she said. I walked in and laid down on his couch. My eye lids closed, I started to fall asleep again. "Ms.Gilbert! Are you sleeping? You know you shouldn't sleep in class. I'll talk to your guardian" he said and then I heard shuffling of files I guess. I couldn't focus. I could hear him and stuff but I couldn't respond, I felt paralyzed like I was in a coma. I heard ringing from my phone and then heard the principle mutter "shit" And start muttering other stuff. "I'll take you home then and talk to your guardian" he said. I then felt someone lifting me up. I knew I had to stop him but I was like in a coma! He started talking to the nice old lady and then I felt him place me in, what I assumed, the back seat of his car. I heard papers moving and then him mutter my address. My mind screamed to wake up while my eye lids refused to open. He carried me up the stairs to my apartment and then knocked. After awhile he huffed and then started feeling my pockets, he took out my keys and then I heard jingling of him opening the door. I then heard the familiar creak of my door opening. "Shit, this place is crappy" I heard him say. I so badly wanted to yell at him for calling my place crappy, it was but I still felt insulted when he said that. I felt him place me on my bed and then I heard the door close. Thinking he left I let my mind shut down completely.
I woke up and immediately saw my principle staring at me. "Audrey...why didn't you tell me you live alone?" He asked softly. "Because then you would take me away from here" I responded calmly but I was panicking in the inside. "Why are you alone?" He asked. "I ran away. My family ignored or bullied me at times. Everyone in school ignored me. I was told by the guy I thought would love me, that I was a slut, ugly, and useless girl. It was best for me to run away, the first time I actually thought about my wants" I answered. "Can you leave...uh Mr?" I asked. "Call me Jake, and did you already forget my last name?!" He asked bewildered. "Yup!" I said happily that we were talking about something less upsetting. "Jake Williams, terrible name" he said. "What's your middle name?" I asked. "My full name is Jake Carter Williams" he said. " That's not a bad name!" I pointed out. "Well what's your full name?" He asked. "My full name is Audrey Ann Gilbert" I lied, really it's Audrey Lynn Lockwood. He nodded, looking at me as if he knew I was lying. I squirmed feeling nervous that he might know I'm lying straight to his face. I was suddenly brought out of my thoughts when I heard a ring from my wall clock that rings every hour. I sighed and looked up to see that I totally missed all of my classes and I was really late to my job at the diner. Maybe I could tell her the truth about Jake bringing me home from school and me sleeping. She seemed nice enough to understand, and she did say school was first priority.
Jake left soon, and when I called the diner about it she said it was fine and not to worry. Now my next job.... I went up stage and danced in a tight, short outfit. It was a black leather outfit, and I looked hot in it. I had done some moves on a pole, shaking my ass in front of all the guys. Once that was over I was called for a session so I went to the back where there were rooms with security outside of them. "Hey, don't worry about anything. If I hear a single noise that is...inappropriate for a session, I'll come to your rescue. Call me Prince Charming" the security for me, winked at me. I laughed "deal, but what's your real name?" I asked curiously. "My name is Derek Torrez" he said.
I sighed and looked at the clock, it was 1:00 am. "Peter? Anything you need help with?" I asked as I see him looking frustrated and running his hands through his hair. "Well, can you do something for me? You don't have to do it, I could try to ask someone else..." He said. "What is it?" I asked, hesitantly. "Work at the bar, Lina just quit right when we have a bunch of customers" he sighed as he looked at the over flooding angry population of guys at the bar. "I'll do it" I said, it was better than the one on one session. "I can look for a new bartender as soon as tomorrow" he quickly said. "No! I'll do it, I'll just do less one on one sessions" I said loudly and quickly before he left and put a 'for hire' sign up. He nodded and have me a smile. He followed me to the bar, and told me how to make the drinks, before he left he wrote it down on a notepad.
I did good at the bar, surprisingly. As I walked to my car when I heard movement. I looked to my left, only to see a werewolf, one from the Moonshine pack. My eyes widened and so did the wolf's. I ran after him. Sadly I was in human form so I was slower. I quickly shifted and sprinted after the wolf. I was so close to getting the wolf when it crossed a territory. I couldn't pass without permission unless I wanted to die. I whimpered and laid down as I watched the wolf run away and look back at me with a smug expression on its face. I growled at the wolf whom immediately ran away with their tail between it's legs. I sighed and shifted into human form. I'll worry about the wolf later, right now I needed to go home and sleep. I groaned once I realized I had school tomorrow.
I woke up startled when I heard a loud noise. I immediately jumped up from bed and got into a fighting stance. I waited for the danger, watching the door. Then I realize the noise was behind me. I whirled around only to be greeted by blinking numbers and a loud noise. "Stupid girl" I muttered to myself when I noticed it was only my alarm clock. I was a lot more jumpy since I saw that wolf. I sighed and jumped into the shower. I was dressed in ripped black jeans with a red cold shoulder top and of course my leather jacket. I sighed as I slipped on my black stilettos with studs on them. I didn't want to see anyone today, I knew I would be more jumpy in a crowd. I grabbed my bag and basically ran to a bus stop nearby to school. As I got on I saw some guy check me out, he was also the only person with a free seat next to them. The only seat available on the bus. I started walking to the seat when the bus jerked. The bus driver couldn't wait till I sit down? I didn't take long to walk to the seat. Because of the stupid bus driver I fell into the seat next to the guy checking me out. I sat half on his lap and half on the seat. "Hi, I'm Audrey!" I said putting my hand out, not moving a bit. He chuckled. "You're one of a kind Audrey, my name is Ryder" he said. I knew then, that we would be best friends. He wasn't grabbing my ass as I sat on his lap, he only looked at my eyes as I sat there, and he wasn't trying to get in my pants. I moved off his lap. I can't blame him for checking me out before, I'm a stripper of course I have an attractive body. It's ok to look just not touch. "So anything exciting?" I asked to make conversation. "In school nothing really is exciting. Today I'm supposed to hang out with my friends. Daniel's birthday today so we're going to celebrate just us close friends. I would invite you but no girls allowed" he said smiling. "I'll think of you as I party though!" he said with a wink. I laughed and nodded, "well I'll dream of you as you party!" We joked around a bit until we arrived at school. Sadly I have only one class with him.
I arrived at dance class with an extra pep in my step, the last period I wast at was with Ryder and we talked all class. I stood in a line with everybody else waiting for instructions. Mr.Blade stood in front of us looking all sexy. "Today we will do any dance! Get with your partners. You can do ballroom, hip hop, ballet, anything!" He announced. I walked up to him and smiled. "Hello!" I chirped. He grinned down at me. "What would you like to do?" He asked with an eyebrow raised. I tapped my chin, playfully acting like I was thinking. "The tango!" And said it with a weird accent. He smiled and shook his head at my accent, but then looked serious. "We didn't do tango and it wouldn't be as easy as hip hop" he pointed out. "I think I can handle it" I smirked at him, I did the tango when I was 14. We danced the tango, the bell rang but we still kept dancing. My leg was hitched up on his waist, his hands ran up them and I pulled my leg back before he reached my thighs. I glided a few steps away and he grabbed my waist his face in the crook of my neck and then he swing me around a 180 and then twirled me around. Our hands clasped together. I slid my leg in between his and slid down to the floor, not really touching the floor because one leg was tangled with one of his. Looking up at him as he brought me back up and the twirled me around so my back was against his chest. Our hands clasped together again as we glided a few steps backwards then front before he twirled me around again and my leg hitched up on his waist again. We then heard clapping causing us to break apart. The only noise other than clapping was heavy breathing. "Nice dance moves! You could be professional" Principle Williams said from the doorway. "Thank you, although it's not surprising that I could be professional, after all I am a dance teacher. I'm very surprised of Ms.Gilbert's talents though!" Mr.Blade said. I blushed as they both looked at me. "I danced the tango a few years ago..." Mr.Williams said. "How did you do it so well?" Mr.Williams asked. "Oh I started doing tango when I was 14, I had watched Take The Lead and decided that I did all the other dances but not tango so I did that. I even perfected the choreography from the movie!" I said cheerful since I was talking about dancing. Mr.Williams took off his suit jacket. "Well lets do one of the choreographs, just show me a video" he said as he rolled up his dress shirt sleeves. I nodded and grabbed the nearest computer and went to YouTube looking up the tango from the movie. "Hmm, you can pick one" I said as I owned both tango videos into tabs. I moved away as Mr.Blade and Mr.Williams looked. I grabbed my stuff and was heading to the door when Mr.Blade called out to me. "Audrey! We are doing the dance right?" I nodded back to him and he smiled. "Well then why are you leaving? Come on let's dance!" He said grinning. I smiled and put my stuff near the doorway. I looked at the video on the screen and knew that's the one the picked. I started dancing with Mr.Blade and then Mr.Williams strides up to us. (We didn't kiss like in Take the Lead) I did my moves with my feet as I had my hands on both of the chests separating them. Then I let go and they started to circle around me as I put my hands up in the air. We were now at the point were I was basically sitting on Mr.Williams' leg when I extended my arm to Mr.Blade and was suddenly with him instead. Now we're at the part where I'm crawling on the floor as they both do their moves and then they're crawling too. The pick me up from the floor and we end with my leg on top of Mr.Blades leg with Mr.Williams' chest pressed up against my back. I panted, trying to breathe. A girl has a lot of footstep moves usually more than the guys, it's exhausting. "And they say it only takes two to tango!" I hear someone joke. I laugh, a breathy laugh. "You did great!" They both say in sync. It's like dancing in sync made them think or say things in sync. "Thank you! I didn't have bad partners either" I say as I go to the doorway where my stuff is. I look back as I'm putting my leather jacket on over my dance clothes. I wasn't going to bother to change back to my normal clothes. It sucks that we change in the beginning and end of class, it takes time away from dancing. Today for dance I was in a short skirt that was very movable in, a tank top, and my strappy dance heels. My skirt and shoes were black but my tank top was a dark pink. I noticed that Mr.Blade wasn't wearing dance clothes and was dressed like Mr.Williams'. "Got a hot date after school, Mr.Blade?" I asked as I pointed at his outfit. He grinned. "No, I have a school meeting afterwards in like an half hour from now" he said. "Well nice dancing with you guys!" I yelled as I left the classroom. I went to Betsy's and was thankfully on time to my job, Betsy agreed that I push my job hours after school back a bit. I sighed as I worked, this job was really nice but when I had to work with grumpy old men it was terrible. I was cleaning a table when the bell rang. I looked up to see Ryder and a group of his friends sit at a table. I smiled and walked over to them with my notepad out. "Здравейте!!" I said as I faked a Bulgarian accent. They all looked up startled as I grinned at Ryder. Ryder laughed making them all look at him confused. "Guys, this is the girl that I met today on the bus. Her names Audrey" he said to his friends. He then looked up at me. "This is Daniel, Logan, Jeremy, and Kyle" he said pointing at the guys without keeping his gaze off of me. "We decided to do a snack before going to party" he said. I nodded and took the orders. I gave it to the chef laughing. They didn't order a snack, they ordered dinner. Can't imagine what dinner is for them. They left after gobbling up their food. They all seemed to look excited, Ryder looked excited but not as much. I sighed and cleaned their table before putting my apron in my locker. My hours were over at Betsy's but now I had to do my other job. I quickly drive to my other job. Since I pushed my hours after school for Betsy's, that meant I stayed there later and sin e I took the bar job I also had to arrive to the second job earlier. I jumped out of the car and went to the girls' dressing room and got into a bartender outfit. It was really short denim shorts that barely covered my ass, and a tank top that was tight on my stomach and had a very low cut neckline so my boobs were on display. The only good thing was that they weren't tight enough to make me uncomfortable. I sigh as I come out of the dressing room and look at the barely empty place. I got behind the bar and started to serve drinks.
I had thirty minutes before I gave up my bartender job to do my dancing job. As I was wiping down the bar I heard someone sit down on the opposite side of the bar. I sigh and push my hair so it was all on one side of my neck. I turned around and look up to see Ryder's friends siting there. Ryder then sat down next to Daniel. I stood there with my mouth open. I guess they felt eyes on them because their eyes snapped up to me. They all gasped, Ryder looked the most surprised. I quickly went to them. "Please don't tell anyone!" I begged. "Alright, but we get free one on one dances!" Logan bargained. I sighed and nodded. I gave them their drinks when my hours were done. I walked away with Ryder staring at me as I did. I sighed and put on a police cap and skimpy dress with my a bra and panties that had the police sign. I grabbed cuffs and went out to the stage. I stride up to the pole and start to sway my hips with my hands resting on the pole. I wrap my left leg around the pole and then lean my head back where my eyes connect with Ryder. I lift my head up and push my chest up so it up against the pole. I shake my ass a bit as take my leg off the pole and stand straight up against it. I then take the police dress off and let it slide down my body. I danced more and had my cuffs hanging from panties, they were cheap and not heavy metal so they didn't pull my panties down, fortunately. I sway my hips as I walk off stage. As I'm about to go to dressing rooms I see Derek come up to me. "A group of guys want a lap dance session" he says and then goes to a door and stands guard, the door to the room I'll be using. I sigh and change into a different outfit. It was a black one that if I bend over there is no cover to my ass. I sigh and go to the room where all of them are. "I thought it was a lap dance ?" I asked unsure. "We decided a group was better and we all wanted answers. I sigh and nodded. "Alright you do Daniel while I ask a question, can you do that?" Ryder asks. I nod as a song comes on. I sigh as I start to give him a lap dance. "So why are you a uh adult dancer?" "I ran away and it gives good money" I answer to his question. "Why did you leave?" He asks. "I was tormented by family and the one who I thought would love me" I answered.
I sighed as I stand there's in front of them. Ryder's hair was just a bit messy from my hands when I gave him a dance. I had to push my dress down to cover my ass several times. All of Ryder's friends left except for Ryder. "Audrey we need to talk" he said seriously. I nodded in response.
