Matt and Lila knocked at the hotel room door as Bam showed them into the cramped space. The testosterone in the room was evident as the brothers took turns using the shower to clean up before the dance and change into a fresh set of clothes. Gabe was currently in the shower as Bear was finishing blow drying his hair. Noah was putting the finishing touches on his ensemble while an impatient Bam waited for his turn in the shower. Lila could see the frustration on his face and glided over to where he sat. She plopped in his lap and whispered into his ear. "While they wait in the bar, we can save time by showering together."
Bam gave her a little nip on the neck. "Woman, I like your resourcefulness."
Gabe popped out of the bathroom and Lila wasted no time in shoving Matt in next. "You've got five minutes, Matthew and don't use all the hot water."
Gabe, Bear and Noah headed to the lodge bar to wait for the rest of the crew. Lila dug through Matt's shirts laying out the blue button down. It matched his eyes and complemented silvery curls. When Matt was finished in the bathroom, Lila ordered Bam in next. Bam eyed Matt in his towel and looked at Lila. "Boundaries, woman, boundaries."
Lila winked at Bam and snapped his rear with a wet towel from the floor. "Keep it hot in there for me."
Lila pointed at the clothes Matt was to wear. "Put on what I laid out." She disappeared into the bathroom and Matt hastily dressed not wanting to be privy to what was about to take place in that shower.
Bam and Lila quickly showered although her husband wanted to linger longer with her. Lila was on a mission tonight and put a squelch to Bam's amorous activities. "I'll take a rain check until after the dance, babe. I'll make it worth your while later." He groaned with disappointment but he knew when she was on a mission nothing could stop her. Bam finished dressing first and left his wife to do whatever women do that takes them so long to get dressed.
"Meet you in the bar shortly. Don't keep me waiting, Lila J." The door shut behind him and Lila went into girl mode. Out came the skimpy panties and bra for later followed by a pair of black thigh high nylons thanks to the naughty store in town. Bam would appreciate that little surprise later. Lila quickly swept her hair above her neck and added her mother's hair comb to the back. She worked magic with her makeup bag and went from bush mom to New York chic in 30 minutes. She carefully unzipped her garment bag and pulled out the same dress and shoes she wore a year ago. A little bling, a spritz of perfume and she was transformed. One last look in the mirror and she was off to meet the boys.
As Lila pulled the door open to the bar and stepped in, she heard a wolf whistle causing all five brothers to turn in unison. Bam quickly made it across the room to his wife casting a drop dead look at the table from where the whistle generated. Lila clutched his hand reassuring him it was nothing to over react to. After all, it was Alaska and it was the biggest night of the year in Hoonah.
The brothers greeted Lila and admired how lovely she looked. Lila eyeballed Matt giving him a thumbs up. He smiled back at her. He was just as anxious as she was, neither one of them wanting to disappoint the other with their expectations of the evening.
"You boys ready?" Lila grinned at all of them. "Let's go conquer Hoonah." Lila wrapped her arms through Matt and Bam's arms and headed out the door with Gabe, Bear and Noah trailing behind.
As the six pack entered the dance, all eyes fell to Bam, Lila and Matt. Lila, as usual, was stunning again. She may have been bush every other day of the year but tonight she was bringing sexy back and she had the best looking escorts on either side of her arms. Lila surveyed the room already writing off certain girls for Matt. She immediately ruled out the women who displayed too much skin and the ones who put no effort into their look. She ruled out anyone under eighteen and over forty. The pool was becoming substantially smaller but then Lila spotted the pixie again. Lila excused herself as the guys found a table near the dance floor. Bear and Gabe wasted no time in finding willing dance partners. Noah held back with Bam and Matt until he spotted his date for the evening and left the two eldest brothers to nurse their cokes.
