MY OWN CRIMINAL RAT CHAPTER 11


Johnny told the woman that he had been prostituting himself to rich old men already and they had not been open to any extras and had treated him badly when he tried to get an extra when he was finished providing them whatever sexual act they wanted in return for cold hard cash with the figure arranged ahead. The businessmen, he said, had been the worst in this regard; thus questioning the plan that the woman had. He liked wearing her clothes it was a turn on and he thought he made a very sexy woman as any god could pull off both of course but he didn’t have great faith in music industry types giving in as easily as she believed.  He explained his experience as a man to her in detail and how these men were not easily bullied.

The woman laughed as if what Johnny explained was silly youth and told Johnny that though she didn’t disagree with him she pointed out that before he was alone; the only witness. This time he had her and Rooskie and with their help this would work easily.  She didn’t tell Johnny what exactly her and Rooskie’s role would be, guarding it like a patentable secret, but Johnny realized that the woman was right and again admired her his shoulders dropping as if relieved again. His mind wandered thinking about how life would have been different if the woman had kept him and raised him. He then told the woman “That’s great and I am really liking this but I have something brilliant to add to this plan. Just in case any of these stupid men that we set up don’t go easily along and pay up and give me the career I deserve in the music industry, we can sue them in court and splash all my lies all over the place with media attention. That would be great for my career since half the battle is people knowing you exist.  Once they heard my name they will listen to my music and I will rise to stardom through the people!”  The woman put her hand up like a policeman at a traffic stop and told Johnny that this would be decided later then adding that though she didn’t disagree with doing this too she wanted to keep her anonymity because she liked to be diverse in her scams and really liked the religious one. 

From there Johnny’s hunger had turned to feeling weakness and he knew that he could not put off eating any longer. He told the woman that he was leaving for a while to eat and do other things including gathering his belongings from the house he was staying at.  The woman hearing this immediately called out for Rooskie and within seconds Rooskie appeared at the doorway to the kitchen before them anxious to hear what his next task was from the woman. Rooskie respected the woman because she had saved him from certain disaster and continued to protect him and help him survive. He made more money with the woman than by himself and her ways of making money were easier than his past crimes that were more consistently brutal. Rooskie liked brutality however it was part of him and he knew this with certainty. Rooskie considered this part of him his natural beast that deserved to be unleashed now and again. The woman accepted this part of him as well and like him believed this was natural for Rooskie as it was for others she had met in her past.  He had never had sex with the woman and rejected her advances caringly because he did not want to ruin his good thing with her. For Rooskie his sex needs were met only by being a dominatrix to men and women and he could not give the woman what he believed she wanted from him in this way. Johnny handed Rooskie cash from his pocket with the woman telling Johnny how much to give Rooskie and with that Rooskie left to buy food for all of them.

When he came back he saw the woman’s travel bag at the door and knew that they were headed out somewhere. He put the food down in the kitchen and went to his room checking his trunks to make sure none of the seals had been broken. These trunks were Rooskie’s life and what was inside helped him to not have to seek out his beastly needs as often; they comforted him. He dropped down on his knees and hugged one of the trunks kissing it gently then grabbing his bag and headed out to the van.

By the time Rooskie passed the kitchen towards the back door the woman and Johnny had finished eating the food he brought and were throwing the trash away.  Rooskie realized that more time had passed than he thought; feeling as though he had only been in the room for a few minutes.  But he didn’t think about this much as he knew he was different and he accepted it. Strange things happened to him now and then and though he couldn’t explain it he didn’t pay attention to it since it didn’t interfere with his survival. He liked this life with the woman where he could be his complete self and he made enough money easily; that is all Rooskie knew he needed from life. Rooskie believed he was unable to feel happiness but he knew he could feel pleasure from very few things and the woman was one of them.

Rooskie was pleased when he saw the woman approaching the van with his bag of food in hand. As she jumped inside she told him he needed to eat to keep his strength up in case they needed it where they were going. Before the woman no one had cared about Rooskie, he thought, and he liked how it felt.  Rooskie would do whatever the woman wanted he knew this with certainty and for a moment regretted that he could not give her sex; but Rooskie knew she accepted this too.

Soon the van was headed to the desert and Rookie liked the idea of getting out of Los Angeles for a while. He felt he needed a break from LA especially since his last beastly incident where he came pretty close to getting caught.  But Rooskie believed he was safe however since he believed he knew what he was doing. He had been getting away with his beast for some time and he was methodical to avoid getting caught which he had been successful at for now over 15 or so years. He also spoke to no one about what he did. He knew that telling anyone was certain disaster; this was his secret. But he knew the woman understood that his beast side existed since she had assisted in some of his close calls. She never judged him though and he was amazed by it. The woman was the only woman he had ever been this close to. He looked over at her and she met his gaze. She smiled at Rooskie and he smiled back; no words needed to be spoken and he felt pleasure.

As they approached the Palm Springs hotel the woman instructed Rooskie and Johnny to put on the religious robes she tossed at them from her bag. Both Johnny and Rooskie complied immediately and put their robes on together with the woman. As they exited the van she turned to Johnny and told him to not talk at all when they are at the hotel desk that she would do all the talking. Rooskie walked along like he had done this a million times before and Johnny felt excitement at being made part of the religious scam the woman held so high. The hotel was a 5 star and Johnny felt like he finally was at home again as he walked inside. 5 Star hotels knew how to do comfort and knew how to spoil their guests Johnny thought and he was up for some severe spoiling again. He didn’t know how this was being paid for but he trusted the woman and knew she had some kind of plan for this as her confidence as she executed it confirmed this to Johnny. The hotel desk clerk seemed to know the woman but they spoke so quietly that he could not hear what was being said.  Before long they were headed to their rooms and the woman handed them each a room key.  Johnny walked into his room throwing the door open and running and jumping onto the deep feather bed with its clean crisp bedding.  He dreamed of his new life ahead and thought about how wonderful it was already even.

Soon thereafter Johnny picked up the phone and ordered his typical room service banquet then dropped his religious robes and clothes on the bed and entered the lavish bathroom admiring himself in the mirror and pushing his toes into the deep white bathroom carpet shortly before stepping into the large Italian tiled multi head shower; he was in luxury again and Johnny felt wonderful.
