Double Dipped 34

Red Light Special: Part 4 (Conclusion)

Ryo leaned against the wall and shifted to find a more comfortable position. He looked very relaxed in dark jeans and a loose fitting, long sleeved, button down, deep blue shirt. He watched as Andy, Clarisande and Tisiphone rushed to the back to help Count D and Chihaya dress for the night. Count D had extended his closet to Chihaya's use because they were about the same size. Ryo laughed as Andy promised that this would be a night that they would all remember.

Chihaya was frightened as Andy gave him a small smile and proceeded to toss things around in D's closet. She was taking bits of one demure ensemble and matching them with another to make several combinations that would lead both Count D and Chihaya very scantily clad. “I'm supposed to be bait, not a prostitute.” D protested at the skin tight underpants and revealing tank top that Andy held up to him.

Andy grinned before she reached up and undid the buttons of her overlarge jacket and let it fall to the floor. Chihaya gasped as he got a good look at her cropped black halter top and skin tight, laced at the sides, leather pants. “I don't want to be bait.” Chihaya said in a high pitched voice. Count D could not help but laugh when he got a good look at the overly large eyes that took over half of Chihaya's face.

“Actually... tonight, you want to watch Andy and emulate her.” Count D said and winked at Andy. Now that Chris was speaking again he rarely used his telepathy, but it was like riding a bike. Once you learned you never forgot. -Flirt even more outrageously with Nestoir tonight please.- Andy grinned and winked before she began to set up another hot ensemble.

Break

It shouldn't be allowed. Kagetsuya thought as Chihaya peeked around Count D before stepping into view. Kagetsuya turned away before he ripped the clothes off and took him right there. Chihaya was wearing a spaghetti strapped tank top with one of Count D's sheer floor length sheaths and skin tight low rise underpants. Leon swore as Count D emerged wearing a similar outfit in deep red with a black overlay. “I called Jeremy love,” Count D said and nuzzled Leon's neck. “I told him that I would be arriving to the club with you all and that he is to meet us there.”

“Sweet, so you think someone will want you as much as I do?” Leon said with a grin as he stared hard at D trying to imagine his body through the fabric.

“What does that matter?” Said D laughing softy. “They can desire me all they want, but I will always only belong to you.” D smiled and kissed his daughter before he left the shop. Lady Aurora sat cuddling the baby close and hoped that she had learned enough to care for the baby.

Break

Jeremy arrived at the club and noted Berkeley standing near the spotless, waxed bar flirting with one of the bartenders. She was pretty. Jeremy had to admit. She had shining golden hair and big brown eyes. She reminded Jeremy of a doe the way she moved gracefully preparing Berkeley a drink. Jeremy sighed and tuned away. Before he could sink into a full depression he smiled when he noted Leon, Count D, Ryo, Dee, and two men he had never seen before. He liked his cousin's co-workers, they had forgiven him easily after he had insulted them.

Berkeley finished pumping the young woman for information before he moved on to the other bartender. He was tall and handsome. His dark skin blended in perfectly in the dim lighting of the swanky club. “Your boyfriend?” The question was asked close to Jeremy's left side. He looked at the young man beside him and sighed before he shook his head. “Not anymore huh? Not after this. He is blatantly hooking up right in front of you.” Jeremy frowned before he shook his head at a loss how to tell this stranger that Berkeley was nothing to him... not anymore. “My name is Tony,” Tony held his hand out for Jeremy to shake.

Jeremy looked at the young man and decided that his friendly smile was harmless. “I'm Jeremy, nice to meet you.” Jeremy shook his hand and smiled.

“You know that girl?” Tony asked and indicated Andy who waved animatedly at him.

“Yeah, that's Andy, she is the lead female singer of tonights performance.” Jeremy said and waved back. Andy winked before she was dragged off to the dressing room. “So... uh Tony, come here often?” Jeremy tried to smile at the friendly young man.

“Yeah, despite the hetero's it's a nice club.” Tony said and smiled as he looked around the room. “They don't mess with us here.”

“Us?” Jeremy asked and quirked a brow at Tony.

“Oh... are you still pretending to be strait?” Tony laughed and looked at Berkeley. “He is hot.” Jeremy blushed and looked away from Berkeley who was busy flirting with a waitress in a nonexistent skirt. “Bi-huh? Hate those bastards, they refuse to commit.”

“Well that's not true,” Dee said coming up beside Jeremy and clapping him on the back. “I'm Bi and I committed to him easily enough. Jeremy aren't you going to introduce us to your friend?”

“Oh yeah, this is Ryo and Dee.” Jeremy said purposefully leaving off the detective status. Tony shook their hands and smiled before he bought Jeremy a drink. Berkeley looked over and frowned at Tony. He supposed the suave lawyer type was someone the young man would go for. He just thought Jeremy had better taste than that.

“If you are interested in him,” Count D said softly to Berkeley. “You have had plenty of opportunity. He has been madly in love with you since the day you met. It was obvious.”

“Was it?” Berkeley asked with a brow raised in disdain. Count D gave Berkeley a knowing look before he picked up his soda. “If the little guy wants to have a one night stand, what's it to me?” Count D said nothing, but he grinned when Berkeley got a good look at Chihaya and his jaw dropped. “Who's the adorable one? He is with you isn't he?”

“Me... no. The blond one next to Leon.” Count D said with a slow smile. Berkeley saw how tall Kagetsuya was and changed his mind about flirting with the beautiful dark haired angel. “Actually,” Berkeley said after he got a closer look at Chihaya. “How old is he?”

“He's of age,” Count D said with a smirk before he turned away from Berkeley. “Humans can be so foolish when led by their emotions. But then again, what creature isn't?” Count D walked away after his cryptic remark. He glanced over his shoulder to see Berkeley staring at Jeremy with a deep frown on his face.

The lights of the club began to dim and flicker. Billows of smoke fanned around the room and lightning flickered throughout the large room causing the crowd to cheer. All lights went out and silence reigned as a voice could be heard over the loud speaker. “Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you the group that needs no introduction... Be prepared for X-Ta-C.” For a moment applause drowned out the music and the singing but soon calmed enough to listen. “When you walk away... You don't hear me say... Please Oh Baby, Don't Go. Simple and clean is the way that you're making me feel tonight. It's hard to let it go.” First one light beamed on the stage followed by another and another until the stage was flooded and the girls could be seen.

Clarisande took the mic and blew a kiss to the crowd before she sang out in a clear, strong voice:

“You're giving me too many things

Lately you're all I need

You smiled at me and said

Don't get me wrong I love you

But does that mean I have to meet your father?

When we are older you'll understand

What I meant when I said "No,

I don't think life is quite that simple"

“Simple,” Jeremy muttered and sighed into his glass. "Nothing is ever simple.”

“That bad huh?” Tony asked and placed a hand on Jeremy's shoulder. Jeremy looked up and forced a smile. He missed the clenching of Berkeley's jaw as he glared at Tony. Count D looked over and smiled before he reached behind him and pulled Leon's arms around his body. Chihaya's eyes widened as he watched Leon sway with D in his arms. Kagetsuya never held him like that. Not in public and not unless he wanted...

Tisiphone tossed her flowing blond hair over her shoulder before she began to sing with Althea and Amalthea as a backdrop of sinuous voices:

“When you walk away

You don't hear me say

please Oh baby, don't go

Simple and clean is the

way that you're making me feel tonight

hard to let it go

The daily things

that keep us all busy

Are confusing me

that's when you came to me

and said "Wish I could prove I love you

but does that mean I have to walk on water?

When we are older you will understand

that 's enough when I say so

and maybe some things are that simple"

I don't love him. Jeremy thought furiously. We were just friends, we had an enjoyable night, that's all. So why does it hurt? He wondered and turned a determined smile to Tony as Andy took center stage:

“When you walk away

You don't hear me say please

Oh baby, don't go

Simple and cleanis the way that you're making me feel tonight

It's hard to let it go

Hold me

Whatever lies beyond this morning

Is a little later on

Regardless of warnings the future doesn't scare me at all

Nothings like before”

As the song continued Chihaya stepped closer to Kagetsuya hoping that he would reach out. Wanting to feel the strength of his arms around him. Holding him, not just wanting him. Kagetsuya felt the slight figure next to him and looked down. The fall of fluffy hair hid most of Chihaya's face with his head lowered as it was, but Kagetsuya thought he could feel those deep purple eyes on him and he reached out and took Chihaya into his arms. Chihaya relaxed against Kagetsuya with a big, bright smile.

“They'll be ok,” Ryo said to Dee who paused in his nibbling of Ryo's ear to look up and nod. “Glad you are so concerned.”

“Look Baby, I did my part.” Dee said nuzzling Ryo's warm neck. “The rest is up to them.” Ryo nodded his agreement before he raised his head to accept Dee's kiss.

“Ladies and Gentlemen, thank you all for coming out with us tonight. I know it has been a while since we have performed.” Daphnus spoke into the microphone and smiled.

Leon looked around and could almost swear he heard the many hearts of the women in the club flutter. “Yeah, so he's beautiful,” Leon muttered and kissed D's cheek to let him know that he was only teasing. “I bet he can't commit worth a damn.”

“You've got that right.” Leon looked down to see the young woman with startling white hair that had 'tested' Count D so long ago in the Arcadian throne room. She stood beside him wearing a deep colored silken ensemble. Due to the swiftly moving and changing lights he could not make out the color. “He can make you believe it, but he won't...”

“I would like to request that the Lady Alera come to the stage and sing this next song with me.” Daphnus said with a sad parody of his earlier smile. He looked into the crowd and Leon backed off as he could feel the stare bore into the young woman. “I hope you all have taken advantage of the fish bowl that is making it's way to through the audience. If you have a request it will be performed. Alera,” Daphnus said and extended his hand in welcome. Alera squared her shoulders and took the steps avoiding his hand. “Please read the card.” He said and handed it to her.

Alera took the card and was proud of the steadiness of her hands despite the wild fluctuations of her heart. Alera stared down at the card a moment before her voice was steady enough to read the inscription written in a neat swirl. “All flowers contain a beauty that is all their own. Some are poisonous and some have thorns.” Alera paused and her eyes stared up at Daphnus and filled with tears that she refused to allow to fall. “By it's very nature, love competes with the most deadliest of pricks and noxious fumes. With confidence though... on lives these blooms.” Alera sighed and finished the card. “From... Count D?” She looked up at Daphnus before she looked out into the crowd looking for the gorgeous Asian. His eyes, however, were on Berkeley. Count D then looked over to see Jeremy fighting a hard battle with tears.

Daphnus handed a microphone to Alera and nodded. She blinked several times to clear her eyes before she inhaled:

“All alone on a Sunday morning

Outside I see the rain is falling (whoa)

Inside I'm slowly dying

But the rain will hide my crying, crying, crying

And you

Don't know my tears will burn the pillow

Set this place on fire

'Cause I'm tired of your lies

All I needed was a simple "Hello"

But the traffic was so noisy that you could not hear me cry

(I) I gave you my love in vain

My body never knew such pleasure,

My heart never knew such pain

(And you)

You leave me so confused

Now I'm all cried out, over you.

Jeremy felt a nudge inside of his heart and he gasped trying so hard not to cry and failing miserably. “Hey there,” Tony said and pulled his distraught new friend into his arms. “It's alright.” Tony smiled inwardly and knew that things were definitely looking up for him tonight. As Daphnus began to sing, Tony winked at the bartender who nodded and began to fix a drink.

Daphnus smiled gently at Alera as he began his portion of the lyrics:

“(OOooh) Cryin' over you,

yeah

Never wanted to see things your way,

Had to go astray

For why was I such a fool,

baby(Why was I such a fool)

Now I see that the grass is greener

Is it too late for me to find my way home?

How could I be so wrong?

yeah

Alera burst into tears and sang:

“Leaving me all alone

Don't you know my tears will cause an inferno

Romance up in flames,

Why should I take the blame?

You were the one who left me neglected

Daphnus broke in with a tearful apology: “I'm so sorry baby”

Alera shook her head denying his heartfelt words: “Apology not accepted Admit to the broken heart you've collected”

Alera angrily wiped at her face as she continued to sing: (I) “ I gave you all of me (I gave you all of me)

How was I to know,

You would weaken so easily?”

(I) “I don't know what to do

(I don't know what to do)

Now I'm all cried out

(I'm all cried out)

Over you” (oohh)

(I) “I gave you my love in vain

My body never knew such pleasure,

My heart never knew such pain

And you...”

The Princes and Princesses that were singing backup sang from within the crowd causing a haunting, emotional backdrop to flow around the two estranged lovers on the stage and off. Several members of the audience wiped sympathetic tears as they cuddled their loved ones. Daphnus placed a hand on Alera's shoulder and sang:

“You left me so confused”

Alera sniffled and finished the song with Daphnus and the others singing along in different tones and making a beautiful melody of voices:

Now I'm all cried out

(I'm all cried out)

Now I'm all cried out

(All cried out.

I'm so sorry, baby) Daphnus whispered and held out a hand for Alera who backed away wide eyed and fearful of the pain in her heart.

Over you (I'm so sorry. Please forgive me.) DAphnus sang with a pleading look on his face.

Alera lost her ability to remain next to Daphnus and handed the microphone to Andy before she stumbled from the stage in tears. Andy stared about in the awkward silence and tried to smile at the crowd of onlookers. “Today is a day when hearts are laid bare. It is not always gloriously happy. Here is another dedication that comes from afar. A very dear friend of ours who could not be with us tonight.” Andy winked at the camera that was allowing them to have a live feed to Nana's house where JJ and Lord D watched the show. JJ kissed Lord D's cheek and snuggled with him in his arms as Andy began to sing:

“hontou ni taisetsu na mono igai subete sutete

shimaetara ii no ni ne

genjitsu wa tada zankoku de

sonna toki itsu datte

waratteru kimi ga iru

“Hey let me buy you a drink.” Tony suggested and pulled Jeremy over to the bar. Jeremy smiled and accepted the cold glass that the bartender handed him. He took a sip and coughed before he took another.

“Did you see that love?” Lord D asked as he stared at the screen.

“See what?” JJ asked and frowned.

“That bartender, he already had that drink made and was still stirring it when your cousin accepted it.” Lord D watched as Jeremy turned red and blinked several times before be brought the drink to his lips again.

“The bartender...” JJ gasped. “Oh no... they are all watching the crowd, it's not just the crowd...” JJ got to his feet and put his shoes on and pulled out his cell phone. “Leon... They got him... they got him... the Double X. It's not just the crowd, I know who the supplier is. Get Jeremy. Don't let him leave the club. I'm on my way.”

Leon slipped his cell phone to Count D and looked around the club as the band began to sing another song Jeremy drained the glass. “Come on lovely, let's go find a place to get to know each other better. We'll forget all about tall and broody over there.” Tony crooned and placed his hand on Jeremy's shoulder and began to lead him to the door.

“Jeremy,” Leon said and caught his arm. “Leaving so soon, you are going to miss the best show in town. I thought you loved this group.”

“I do, but...” Jeremy began and looked at Berkeley again and swiftly turned away. He was in close conversation with a smiling young brunette. She was curvy and Jeremy knew he would never be able to compete for his affections. It was hopeless. “We're... not even ...friends anymore...” Jeremy said and Leon frowned at the slurred, halting speech of the young man. Leon caught Jeremy as he weaved on his feet and he clung tightly to Leon. “Why... Why is it... so hot?”

“Going somewhere?” Berkeley asked through tightly clenched teeth as he grasped Tony's arm. Tony looked up fearful for he had begun to vanish into the crowd. “So the rat has finally revealed himself... who's your supplier.”

“Man, I don't know what you are talking about.” Tony gasped and winced in pain when Berkeley twisted cruelly on his arm. “You can't get mad at him for wanting to replace you. You ignored him. I was only gonna... Ow man you're breaking my arm!”

“Tell me the truth, dammit, or you will be missing more than your arm” Berkeley said and caused the whimpering man to fall to his knees. “How much did you give him?”

“I didn't give him any... ow... I don't know. I swear.” Tony cried out when he thought he could hear his bones crunch. “He can look at them and guess their weight and...”

“Who?” Berkeley demanded.

“The...:Gasp: Bartender...:Gasp:” JJ said as he came to a skidding halt next to Berkeley. Ryo and Dee pointed their guns at the angry man who held his hands up in surrender. “Oh man... Jeremy!” JJ gasped and saw his cousin panting as his body began to demand satisfaction. “We've got to get him to a hospital, someone call an...” JJ began but was cut off by Berkeley.

“No use, all they will do is douse him in water until it goes through his system, that can take up to a week. He'll suffer needlessly. My hotel is around the corner, I'll take care of him.” Berkeley pulled Jeremy into his arms.

“NO!” JJ said and blocked Berkeley's way. “It's his first time, he is too riled up, he could hurt himself.”

“Not... first time.” Jeremy panted and clung to Berkeley nuzzling his shirt and inhaling his masculine scent. “Want to... JJ I want him to.”

“Of course you do, your blood is full of... what do you mean not your first time?” JJ gasped and stared wide eyed at his cousin. “When...? Who...” JJ asked looking from Jeremy to Berkeley and back again. “That's why you were so...”

“I have to start soon or there will be nothing for it.” Berkeley said and left the club leaving Ryo, Dee, JJ and Leon to make the arrests. Andy looked from the stage and sighed, couldn't their shows ever go as planned? Ah well, they still had a crowd to entertain and the fishbowl had just been refilled. A few onlookers were still watching the detectives work and listening to the sirens but as soon as they began another song, the attention refocused.

Break

“Ummm...” Jeremy panted and kissed Berkeley gaining the man's attention. “Please... oh please help me.” Jeremy begged and fell onto the bed gasping in pain. His clothes were rubbing against his sensitive skin and making him flush with unbearable need. Berkeley sighed and looked deep into Jeremy's dilated eyes.

“Hush love,” Berkeley purred in Jeremy's ear and undid the young man's pants. “I'll take care of you.” He began strong, steady strokes with his hands and Jeremy gasped and came within seconds. He melted against the bed and stared up at Berkeley before he burst into sobs. “Why are you crying?” Berkeley asked before he began to remove the rest of their clothes.

“You are so kind to me, after everything and... You don't have to do this.” Jeremy said and gasped as he could feel his skin heating up again. His release had satisfied him for only a moment.

“I don't have to, I know.” Berkeley said and slid into bed pulling a tube of lubricant from the drawer beside his bed. “But I want to.” Jeremy inhaled sharply as he felt Berkeley's coated fingers probing against his most sensitive, secret places and he relaxed knowing that soon he would be filled.

“It's ok, relax, you could still tear and this will take all night.” Berkeley said and began to stretch his fingers apart inside of Jeremy who panted and spread his legs wide.

“I cant... take much more... just do it... now please...” Jeremy begged when he thought he would go mad with wanting. Berkeley sighed and positioned himself hoping that Jeremy was ready. He pushed forward and Jeremy cried out in joyful pleasure. Jeremy clung to Berkeley's shoulders and sobbed his release. No sooner had this wave of desire left him breathless with satisfaction than his body was heating up for more. Berkeley sighed and hoped he could keep this up all night.

Break

Chihaya fell into the plush seat in the 24hr diner and sighed. It was nearing three AM and he was exhausted. Andy had periodically left the stage and insisted that he and Count D dance with her. Leon found it amazing how they had managed to leave the club and book their criminals and return to find the party raging as if no crimes had taken place. Drake had admitted to bar tending while he was in college and had taken over for the rest of the night. He found the stash of Double X powder and put it in an evidence bag hoping to get finger prints off of it later.

“I can't believe those bastards, they were so helpful!” Dee sneered angrily and nearly wadded up his menu. “All along they were sending us on wild goose chases and were the ones dishing out the drug in the first place.”

“It's alright Dee,” Ryo said calmly putting an hand on Dee's leg. “We got them and they won't be hurting anyone else.” Ryo looked sad for a moment before he said. “I'm glad Ted drove JJ home, he seemed a bit upset. Understandable, I mean... his cousin was drugged.”

“Yeah, poor guys.” Leon said and clutched Count D's hand. Chihaya stared as Leon bent down and captured D's lips.

“Get a room,” Leon and D broke apart at the cheerful giggling and smiled as X-Ta-C came over to the table. “Got room for us?” Andy asked as they all slid into the long booth. Andy winked at Count D before she parked herself in her husbands lap and looked for the all the world as if she had no intention of moving. Nestoir smiled and wrapped his arms around his snuggling wife

“She's so huggy.” Nestoir said and kissed her neck. The affectionate banter at the table was almost embarrassing and as the desserts, teas and coffees made it to the table Kagetsuya slide an arm around Chihaya's waist and pulled him closer leaving the arm in place. Chihaya smiled and vowed that tonight he would enjoy himself... in all things.

TO-BE- CONTINUED

Author's Note: I have returned! I have been very ill and I am sorry that this took so long to finish and upload. Well it is not exactly finished. I will go into further... explorations with Chihaya and Kagetsuya and Jeremy and Berkeley. Also our regulars need some lovin' I would say. Never fear, the dreaded bug is working it's way out of my system and I will get to work. My schedule had to make room for my job and lack of computer I never expected it to get completely scrapped by illness. Again I am so sorry.
