章節 61: Ch.61

(Matt Pov)

"Matt?" I hear a familiar woman's voice behind me.

Turning to the voice, I see Angela Weber from school and one of Bella's two female human friends from school. Further behind her, I see Jessica Stanley the other human friend of Bella serving drinks in a skimpy outfit to men at another table. Seeing them I'm slightly shocked, but not as shocked seeing Jessica here.

"Angela? What are you doing here?" I say very confused and now Jessica sees me and Jacob, giving us an annoyed look.

"Huh, Jessica started working here after school ended for a summer job before college and asked me to work here with her," Angela says embarrassed that someone from school that she knows caught her here.

"Oh, well that's not a bad idea to make money before college....You look good," I say not sure what to say now. Though my compliment makes her blush.

"Thanks, so do you. If you guys need anything just ask me. Though I'm surprised seeing you here, didn't take you for a type of guy to come to this place. Did you and Alice break up?" Angela says to me with some hope in her eyes at the last question.

"Yeah I'm here with some friends and my Uncle, it's his bachelor party so this is our last stop," I say and gesture to Charlie and Billy, now Charlie is getting a lap dance by the young blonde stripper and Billy is cheering them on. With Carlisle just laughing watching this. Seeing this I just stare in shock a bit at Charlie's drunken antics.

"Oh, that makes sense then. Though how come you're not getting any…..any attention?" Angela asks me with a blush still.

"Well, not really my type of thing, sure these women are beautiful. Plus I prefer watching, and Alice would probably be a bit upset if I got a lot of lap dances," I say while also saying Alice and I are still together. Jacob nods his head in agreement, thinking about how Astrid would react hearing if he got lap dances.

"Oh...Yeah makes sense, just call me if you guys need anything," Angela says a bit disappointed hearing I'm still with Alice, and gives us a smile before heading back to the bar. I can hear Angela and Jessica gossiping about me at the bar, but I no longer pay them mind and go back to watching Charlie being a drunk idiot.

"Wish they let us keep our phones, I'd kill for some pictures of this," I say with a laugh as now the young woman is dancing on Billy's lap much to his enjoyment.

"Yeah that'd be great payback or blackmail material," Jacob says with a laugh and now buzzed from the special liquor I've been giving us. Unfortunately, as a god, it does nothing to me and I would need an absurd amount to feel anything or special liquor that is made from my powers.

After another hour, Jacob becomes drunk also, joining the other two drunks in getting lap dances and throwing the money around. While Carlisle and I are watching them with smirks and the only sober ones.

"Matt! I paid a nice girl to give you a lap dance! You better go do it!" Charlie says to me with a drunken slur and points to the private area.

"I'm fine, you or someone else can do it," I say trying to brush it off.

"NO! As the groom, all my groomsmen must get one lap dance!" Charlie says with his drunken slur. Sighing I just nod seeing them all agree with him, even Carlisle is having a smirk on his face at my annoyance.

"Fine, but just this one!" I say with an annoyed look. They all just nod their heads agreeing with me.

'I can just pay the girl more money to leave and let me relax in the booth for a bit by myself,' I think to myself after going to the back of the club in a private booth. After another minute the curtain opens showing Jessica and we both stare shocked.

"Uhh….." I say still processing this, though she looks angry about this and walks into the booth closing the curtain behind her.

"Just don't talk and let's get this over with," Jessica says coming over to me about to sit in my lap.

"Hold on, first of all, I didn't ask for this, the idiots I'm with made me do this. Second, you don't have to dance for me, I can just pay you to leave. Third, I thought you and Angela were only servers?" I say stopping her before she can sit on my lap.

"......Really? You don't want me to give you a lap dance? Why? Am I that ugly?" Jessica says to me and now more annoyed.

"What? No that's not why, I just have no interest in this," I say holding up my hands very confused.

"You never seemed to like me why? Why, Alice?" Jessica says now sitting in my lap, much to my annoyance and confusion as she still looks angry.

"Uhh.......Love at first sight….." I say trying to come up with a reason, but none makes sense without explaining the truth which I won't and the reason I gave is still a truth also. Also, it was hard to think as so many thoughts were going through my head and now she is grinding into me, giving me an actual lap dance.

'What the fuck is happening right now?' I think as that's the most prevalent thought in my head.

"Really, that's your reason?" Jessica says to me with a deadpan expression and removes her top, much to my surprise and confusion as she still seems upset.

"What the fuck is going on? Why are you doing this?" I say so confused and now she looks more upset.

"Well, one it's my job. Yeah, I started out here as a server, but today is my first day as I dancer. You are my first client and this will pay more. But am I not attractive? Most guys like what they see," Jessica says and is now pushing her breasts into my face and grabbing my hands to put them on her waist. Grinding into my lap harder, trying to get a certain reaction out of me.

'This bitch just wants attention and to be wanted,' I realize and now I'm just annoyed, but feel bad for her as this could lead her down a path of self-destruction. Not that it is my responsibility, but as a friend of Bella I would feel bad for being slightly responsible for her self-destruction.

"Listen, you're a very beautiful woman, but I just have eyes for Alice. I have no problem with someone making a living doing this, but getting too much attention, might attract the wrong kind of attention," I say to her while she is pushing her tits into my face and my aggravation is rising.

"If you found me attractive you'd have a boner right now, but don't so I don't believe you," Jessica says with a sly look. And starts to bring her hands down to my pants.

'This crazy bitch! Sorry Bella I tried,' I think to myself as I grab her hands stopping her and giving her a very deadly look, which makes her freeze.

"Listen I tried being nice, but you're fucking insane. Here take this and I swear if you approach me at all again in the future we are going to have some serious problems," I say with venom in my voice and pushing her off me as gently as possible, throwing a wade of cash at her, about two hundred dollars. I leave the room very pissed off, approaching the table of drunk idiots I came here with. They all cheer when seeing me, not noticing I'm pissed, except for Carlisle.

"I'm going outside, I need to air," I say to Carlisle with slightly less anger than I had with Jessica. The others weren't paying attention to me after I came back, but Carlisle nods his head looking at me concerned about what happened. Heading outside I stop by a corner of the club in the back and pull out a smaller cigar for a quick smoke.

'Damn Jasper got me addicted to tobacco, seems a god can't escape its deadly clutches,' I think to myself and calm down a bit. After a few minutes, I hear someone approaching me, and from the sounds a woman. My anger flaring again, remembering what I told Jessica, I turn with a very hostile look thinking it was her.

"Jessica! What the–" I say turning around with extreme frustration and anger, but stop seeing it is Angela.

"Hey Matt, Jessica just told me what happened. I wanted to apologize on her behalf. I don't know what she was thinking, but she has never done something like that before," Angela says to me with an apologetic look. Taking a deep breath and puffing on the cigar, I then give a heavy sigh.

"Yeah, whatever, just make sure I never see her again. I don't plan on coming back to this place either, so you guys don't have to worry about that. Though Angela you are a smart, young, and beautiful woman. I recommend you leave this place and reconsider your friendship with Jessica, she is not a stable or smart girl. You have a bright future ahead of you, as long as you don't follow the footsteps of the attention-seeking moron," I say calming down a bit after seeing it wasn't Jessica and giving the best advice I could to her.

"I….I…Thanks for the compliment, but I have never seen Jessica do something like that before," Angela says after thinking about what I said. I just shrug, as I said what I said, and what happens next is in their hands.

"You're an adult, we all make our own choices and can blame no one but ourselves for the outcome of those choices," I say after finishing my cigar and tossing it away. She seems very thoughtful now.

"Can you do me a favor, and tell the guys I came here with that I'm heading home. I'll leave the car here for them and can you give the keys to Dr.Carlisle, as he is the only sober one," I say to her and hand her the keys, knowing she is a responsible and trusting person.

"Sure...have a good night Matt," Angela says to me as I walk away.

"You too," I say walking away, before turning the corner and making sure no one is around before teleporting to my room.

"Alice, I'm in our room, I need to talk," I say in our mind link while giving a heavy sigh and sitting on the bed. Not even a few seconds later she appears in the room and rushes over to me.

"Matt! You ok?! What's going on?!" Alice says tackling me in a hug and I just hold her close relaxing with her in my arms. All my anger and frustration melted away.

"Easier to show you," I say as I transfer my memories of the time at the strip club, seeing the idiocy of Charlie and Billy made her laugh. Then when the time with Jessica appeared, an among of anger I felt from Alice was nothing I'd felt from her before.

"THAT FUCKING BITCH! I'M GOING TO KILL HER!" Alice yells with an extreme amount of anger and if I didn't keep her in my hug, she'd have run over and probably kill Jessica.

"Calm down, my love. I get your anger and I'd kill anyone who would do what happened to me if it happened to you. So I get what you're feeling, but she is on a path of self-destruction anyway from what I can see. If you want revenge then I won't stop you, but try to not kill her," I say trying to reason with Alice, as if she killed Jessica it'd make me have to use a lot of my powers to cover this up and draw attention from other gods, which I don't need right now.

".....FINE! But I will get my revenge!" Alice says calming down a bit as I hold her and stroke her back. Though as she calms down Rosalie, Edythe, Jasper, and Emmett break down our door rushing in after hearing Alice's outburst. All of them are ready for a fight and looking for an enemy.

"What's going on?! Everything ok?!" Rosalie asks relaxing a bit seeing it's just the two of us.

'Welp, Jessica is fucked,' I chuckle to myself, knowing that Rosalie, Edythe, and Alice are going to work together to plot to ruin her life.
