Johnny finished showering and was feeling ecstasy in his
lush hotel robe when he heard a knock on the door. He walked over to open it
believing his feast had arrived and was surprised to see the woman dressed differently
and this time in an outfit that was made for clubbing. Johnny liked this look
and thought she looked very sexy.
Her hair was completely different too and instead of waves and flowing
it was pulled up in a fun style Johnny liked too. She strutted into his room in
her high heels as though she had them melted to her feet and told him to get
dressed for a nightclub right away but as a woman not a man. She went on to
tell him that there was someone he was going to meet that they would use Johnny
for their plan and he was the first victim of this new scam; an older man that
was in his 70s that was ill but not yet terminal that the woman had met during previous
trips to Palm Springs. She described him as being very rich but that she had
not yet scammed him for any money but instead worked on learning about his life’s
inner circle and earning his trust.
She went on to explain that on her last trip she learned that though he
had some family they rarely visited him, they lived far away and he was mostly
alone but he had a reputation in the Palm Springs community he would want to
protect including a local church affiliation where he had standing.
The woman told Johnny to put on the business suit for this
night. Johnny was excited over to begin the scam that the woman made up for him
and that would bring him to his deserved musical stardom but was not sure what
this old man’s connection was to the music industry if any. But when he asked
the woman what the old man’s connection was she informed he that he did not
have any that she was aware of but he had a lot of money and enough to give
them tens of thousands quickly to protect himself from them. He liked this idea and trusted the
woman and went to put on his suit and heels and make up. By the time he was done he could not stop
looking at himself and gazed into every mirror in the room going from mirror to
mirror. He couldn’t believe how sexy he looked in his female costume and always
loved dressing up as a woman.
As he dressed, the woman told him what the plan details were
for the night and Johnny was pleased that his role was very easy; just go back
to the old man’s house and stay the night. The next day their scam would begin and the woman would act
as the old man’s confidant checking on how Johnny’s efforts were working and
allowing them to adjust their threats and tactics to get the quickest and
largest recovery. Johnny was to go into the club separately by cab and the
woman and Rooskie would go on their own in separate cabs. Eventually Rooskie
appeared at his room door and entered the room dressed in an outfit that looked
more appropriate for the 70’s. His silky shirt that he only buttoned the lower
part of exposing his large hairy masculine chest only interrupted its view by
the large silver chain nonetheless fit well with Rooskie, Johnny thought. He
asked the woman if they were ready to go and with that they all exited the
hotel lobby separately and left in different cabs headed to the Tudor
Nightclub.
When Johnny’s cab arrived he exited and entered the club and
did not notice the cab driver’s gaze all the while they drove along. It was
only 10PM so there was no line and Johnny walked right in. The bouncers at the
door looked mildly at Johnny and didn’t seem to notice that he was actually a
man. As he entered the club the
music seemed to be expanding the walls as it filled the entire space with a
long lit bar and small tables surrounding a lit dance floor that was changing
colors to the music. From the bar there was a view of all of the activity that
would be going on in the club until it filled up. Johnny headed to the bar feeling
very ready for a drink motioning the bar tender to come to him before he had
even sat down and as he chose his seat at the far end. The woman and Rooskie had not yet
arrived and he wondered about this as they had left a short time apart from
each other. The club began to fill
with people quickly and after just a few drinks Johnny felt people begin to
push up against him from over crowded conditions. He watched as men approached other women but did not approach
him waiting for his turn. He felt his anger swelling over this lack of
attention and just as he was about to shove his elbow hard into a woman who was
passing and bumped into him slightly the woman came up from behind him and his
thoughts turned as he could feel the moisture of her breath as she whispered in
his ear. “Look down the bar and to the right. The man in the black expensive dress
shirt and silver hair is our mark. His name again is Mark”, the woman laughed
slightly as she said this noticing the irony of the situation. “Now go do your part
and if you do it right you should be leaving in about an hour or so and headed
to his house” Johnny got up from his barstool and brushed his body against her
purposefully as he wanted to feel her touch. As he walked towards his mark he
noticed that he was looking at Johnny as he approached. Finally Johnny felt empowered
again as the lack of attention he had up to this point had begun to shake his
confidence.
As Johnny got closer he saw the man motion for the bartender
without moving his gaze from Johnny and he kept a small smile on his face. When
Johnny arrived at the place where the man was sitting he had to push a few
people out of the way but he did it gently keeping his woman persona
intact. The man spoke to him
handing him a wine glass telling Johnny how wonderfully beautiful he was.
Johnny put the wine to his lips and knew at first taste that this wine was from
a special reserve that the man likely had this club keep for him to buy when he
came. Johnny smelled the money on him and for a moment he got intensely jealous
of the old man and hated him. He remembered his lavish life growing up that
ended because of the music industry. But Johnny didn’t allow this to show when
he spoke to the old man and proceeded to enact the plan just as the woman had
detailed. Johnny was amazed how easily it worked as the man shortly thereafter
agreed to take Johnny home once Johnny explained how he had no more money or
way to return home and no place to stay as he had lost his wallet; all the
while keeping up his woman persona even crossing his legs at the right time to
give the old man a glimpse of his leg under the modest business suit to try to
further entice him. This move was
his own addition as he had been a prostitute for years at this point and knew
how to reel a trick in. He knew that the money they were seeking was more than
what he could earn performing sex on the old man but he wasn’t unwilling to add
sex if he was going to spend the night and could make some extra money right
away.
Soon Johnny was off being whisked away in the Rolls Royce
that came up to the front of the club with the old man’s driver. At first the driver looked loosely at
Johnny and for a moment he thought the driver might interfere with their plan
by exposing him but his fears left as they drove and the old man placed his
hand on Johnny’s leg over the skirt. Johnny became tired quickly by the old man’s nervous chit
chat but Johnny knew how to keep him going and returned this chit chat with a
story that was made up about his life from the first word to his last. As they arrived at the old man’s house
Johnny was thrilled and the old man reached over to kiss Johnny. Johnny had no
problem kissing the old man and made sure the old man felt wanted through the
way Johnny kissed him back. He could feel the loneliness in the man’s kiss but
he didn’t care about him at all and only cared about how much they would be
able to take from him in the end. Johnny liked the way the door was held
open for him and the way his heels sounded as they clicked along the path up to
the grand front entrance of the old man’s house. For a moment Johnny wished he
could have been born a woman thinking how much easier his life would have been
if he could have found a man to take care of him. As he entered the home he thought he would never want to
leave but knew that he would remain convicted to the woman’s plan, other than
the possible additional payment for sex right away.
