Entry 73. June 19, 2009.
[x] Go out and have fun for the night.
"I guess it can't hurt. We really should get to know these girls better if we can, especially since we're putting so much in their hands."
The four young adults agree on going out for the night to have some fun. Roberta offers to drive. In the backseat, Felix asks Melanie who called her. "Oh, it was just my mom. She's worrying again. I lied and said we came here for some show. I'll have to tell her the truth if this drags on any longer, though..." Melanie explains. Felix tunes into Roberta and Selest's conversation in the front. "Nah, we ate not too long ago, Robbie. Let's go get some drinks and dance," Selest says. "Aren't they still underage?" Roberta asks. "Whatever... they're close enough and you know Francis will let them in with us anyway," Selest laughs. "Where are we going?" Felix cuts in. "A club called The Crow. You'll love it; it's great!" Roberta responds, cheerfully. Felix and Melanie eye each other skeptically. "The Crow...?" Felix mutters.
Nicholas and Chad sit opposite each other in armchairs in front of a fireplace. They took a break from their conversation to eat, but they have already resumed discussion. "It matters little that we don't know where he is. It matters that Rose could already have him," Chad says, a look of distress on his face. "And if she doesn't?" Nicholas asks, staring into the flames. "Then it's likely he's trying to save his own ass," Chad laughs. "We probably do not have much longer. The FBI was watching this closer than I knew," Nicholas says, matter-of-factly. "Are you prepared?" Chad asks. The fire glimmers in Nicholas' eyes as he nods.
They all get out of Roberta's car and walk towards The Crow, which is just starting to attract people for the evening. The Crow is one of Lixmilo's smaller clubs and always attracts a "darker," younger crowd. It's one of Roberta's favorite places, and she drags Selest along with her every chance she gets. In the past couple years, even Selest has become very accustomed to it. The Crow's bouncer, Francis Macaula, has had a thing for Roberta ever since she first tried getting in four years ago, when she was 19. Since then, she's had no problem regularly paying back his favors to her. "Good evening, girls," Francis calls out as he sees them walking up. "Hey babe," Roberta says, sensually. He grabs her waist and pulls her in for a kiss. "Brought a couple new friends tonight," she says with a playful wink. "Not a problem. You four have a great time," he says, motioning them in.
Inside The Crow, Roberta leads them to her usual table in the corner. Before they left, Roberta and Selest changed into more provocative outfits. Felix and Melanie realize they probably didn't think this through well enough, once they see how out of place their casual clothes are now. "Don't be afraid to get something if you'd like. Friends of mine will be just fine in here. Trust me," Roberta explains. "Eh...that's okay. I'll be alright," Melanie says, looking uncertain about her new surroundings. "Now, now. How old are you anyway, dear?" Roberta asks. "I'm 18..." Melanie answers, slightly embarrassed. "Haha. Well suit yourself. You needn't worry, though. My hands are good ones to be in in here," Roberta says, trying to reassure her. "Not a whole lot going on in here," Felix notices. "Well, duh. It's still early. It's like what? Not even eight yet?" Selest says. Roberta and Selest stand up and head for the bar to get some drinks. "How about you Felix? Getting something?" they ask.
[] Get a drink with Roberta and Selest.
[] Stay at the table with Melanie.
What are the voices inside Felix's head telling him to do?
