Thread: The Lives We Lead (jaceyboo & Traveler)

Aubrey was a bit startled when Darren burst into the room, having been caught up in some cheesy reality show. Her cheeks flushed lightly as she sat up, clad only in a tank top and boy short panties, though she knew that Darren's men knew better than to look for too long. She sighed, running a hand through her hair which was a bit tousled from laying down, offering Darren a small smile as he spoke. She raised her eyebrows lightly as he went on , the look on her face not showing that she was the most excited about the news. Her lips were pursed as he spoke, humming lightly in acknowledgment. It wasn't that she didn't care, or that she wasn't proud of him, but she knew that when things like this happened, he was just dragging himself down deeper. Yes, he was careful and skilled in what he did, but things like this didn't go unnoticed, and she knew that. She was terrified that one day, the cops would come bust in on them and have them all put in jail, and these little victories of his certainly didn't help to calm her nerves. Her eyes shifted over to the man that Darren was boasting about, carefully looking over him. For a moment, she wondered if he knew what he was getting himself into. If he was anything like her, and many of the men that had worked for Darren, he wouldnt see how hard it was to lead this kind of lifestyle. By the time he would want out, it would be too late. Finally, she tore her attention from him and put her focus back on her boyfriend, who was still boasting like a young child. Darren.. she chastised lightly as he grabbed her ass in front of everyone, the way he kissed her taking her breath away for a moment. Her cheeks were flushed once more as he pulled away, biting her lip slightly as she stared up at him. Thats great, baby. she finally told him, offering a small smile. It would be clear to everyone but Darren though, that she didn't seem thrilled about going out. If it had been up to her, she would just go home, and enjoy a quiet evening, but those seemed to be a rarity lately, and god forbid she tell him she didn't want to go. Now get them out of here so I can change. she told him, leaning forward to give him a quick kiss on the cheek. She sighed as the men left, reluctantly getting up and walking over to a door within the room, that led to the adjacent room which provided as a walk-in closet, leading into the bathroom. It didnt take her terribly long to get ready, considering she was already a natural beauty. Her hair already had a light, natural curl to it. She slipped on the short, form fitting, strapless red dress that Darren had requested, her body displaying it perfectly. It accented her curves in all the right places, a good amount of cleavage revealed as well. Applying a bit of mascara and eye liner to make her eyes pop, she finished off with a hint of red lipstick, the tone matching that of the dress. Her eyes scanned her body in the reflection, adjusting herself a bit. She tried not to worry too much about how the night would go, hoping that perhaps a few drinks could do her some good. With that, she slipped on a pair of black stiletto heels, and wandered out to find Darren.
