Give me a Chance

Ben

I had been working at the fitness center for three months now, trying to save enough money to get an apartment. I had about $1200 so far, but after looking at a couple places, I knew that I would have to have at least $1500 or more to cover the rent and deposit. I would be able to just barely cover the rent each month after I moved in. It was becoming clear that I was probably going to have to get another parttime job or a different full-time job. I looked at the card that Big Red had given me that night he was in the gym after hours. The Gemini Club, I had never heard of it, maybe they needed a server or bus boy, maybe I should go check it out.

I looked up the address and found that it was only about 10 blocks from the park. I called the number on the card to set up an appointment.

Brad Shaw answered the phone, “Gemini Club, Brad speaking.”

“Yes Mr. Shaw, My name is Ben Meyer, I got your number form a guy named, “Big Red”, I am looking for a job. I was wondering if I could come by the club to fill out an application.”

“Yeah, I am here all morning, we have a couple positions open, can you be here at 10?”

“Yes sir, that will work just fine.”

“Ok, my brother will be here by then, see you at 10.”

“Thank you, see you then”

I rode down to the gym, since it didn’t open until 10, I had time to take a shower and get my good clothes that Lynn had bought for me for prom. I kept some of my clothes in my locker at the gym so they would stay clean and not get wrinkled.

I showed up at the club about 5 minutes early, Chad Shaw was pulling into the parking lot as I got off of my bike.

He was opening the door, “can I help you kid?”

“Yes sir, I am Ben Meyer, I called earlier asking about a job, the man I talked to said to come it at 10 to fill out an application.”

“Oh, you must have talked to my brother Brad.”

“Yes sir, that is who I talked to.”

“Come on in kid, how did you hear about us?”

“Big Red gave me your card.”

“Ha, Big Red always looking out for us, how old are you?

“I am eighteen sir.”

I looked me up and down, “really?”

“Yes sir.”

“Hey Brad, there is a kid here looking for a job, he said Big Red sent him.”

From the back of the room, “Yeah, he called about an hour ago, I told him to come after you got here so we could both talk to him.”

“Follow me, Brad is back here.”

I followed Chad through the large bar, past three pool table and across what appeared to be a large dance floor with a stage one side and a big u-shaped bar on the other. Beyond that there was a group of tables and chairs, seated at the last table was a guy with papers and a calculator adding up what appeared to be a pile of receipts.

Brad said, “this is Ben, what did you say your last name was kid?”

“Meyer, sir.”

“Oh yeah, Ben Meyer, this is my brother Brad.”

Brad stood up and shook my hand, “Nice to meet you Ben.”

That is when I realized that they were twins, identical twins. I looked at one then the other.

Chad chuckled, “yes we are twins, we run a gay bar and we call it the Gemini Club, you know like in the zodiac, the Gemini Twins.”

“Yes sir, I caught that, that is very clever.”

That is when what Chad had said sunk in, did he say gay bar?

Brad asked, “so what kind of job are you looking for, bar tender, server, dancer, or bus boy?”

“Well, I guess whatever you have available.”

Brad looked me over, “are you over 18?”

“Yes sir,” I pulled my ID out and handed it to him.

Brad looked at Chad, “What do you think?”

“I don’t think he could see over the bar, so I think bar tender is out, no offense kid, but you aren’t very tall.”

“Yes sir, no offense taken.”

Brad told me to stand up and turn around, he looked to Chad, “what about a dancer?”

“That’s up to you, I am not the gay one, that is your thing.”

I thought to myself, what the hell are they talking about?

“Yeah, I think the crowd would like him, ok Ben take your clothes off, I need to see what you got going on.”

“Excuse me?”

“Ben, didn’t Big Red tell you what we do here?”

“No, he didn’t.”

Brad said, “Leave it to Big Red, Ben we are a gay bar that has strippers every Friday and Saturday night. I could give you job as a server, but you would probably make twice as much money as a dancer, if you have the body. If you are interested in dancing, I will need to see you naked.”

I looked to Chad, he looked back at me, “don’t look at me kid, I am straight, I take care of the bar tenders and servers. Chad is the gay one, the dancers are his deal, he knows what turns the guys on.”

Brad said, “it’s no big deal Ben, if you are not comfortable with being naked you don’t have to be a dancer, but like I said, a dancer will make more money than a server.”

I asked, “how much does a dancer make?”

“$100 a night plus tips, most my dancers take in at least another $100, busy nights a lot more. Servers get $10 an hour plus tips.”

“What if I am no good at the dancing part?”

“Don’t worry about that, Big Red is our best dancer, he can help you with a routine.”

“Well, maybe I could try.”

“If it doesn’t work out, we can always use you as a server.”

I said, “Ok, I guess I can give it a try.”

I started to unbutton my shirt and kick my shoes and socks off, I set my shirt on the chair.

“Brad said, “wow, very nice, great chest, and we have a lot of guys that like fur.”

I undid my pants and set them beside my shirt, again Brad gave his approval, “hairy legs too, the whole package.” I dropped my underwear.

Chad coughed, “holy shit Brad, the little guy is packing.”

Brad closed his mouth and swallowed, “I should say so, kid you don’t need to worry about dancing, you could just stand there, and they would be throwing dollars at you.”

I felt my face turn red and my cock start to swell, Brad smiled, “that’s it kid, they also like it when the dancers get hard. Can you start on Friday?”

“I guess so.”

“Good, the bar opens at 6, be here about 3, so Big Red can help you get a routine and a costume to wear. The show starts at 8, since you are the new guy, you will be the first dancer.”

I got to the club right before 3, Brad and Big Red were waiting at the door for me, Red had huge grin as he gave me a hug.

He said, “I knew you would call Brad, I picked this outfit up the day after I met you.”

He handed me a bag, I opened it up and pulled out a white dress shirt with a school crest, a pair of dark shorts with suspenders, black bow tie, a small cap with the same crest and a pair of high top Keds.

“You are going to go by the stage name “Little Bear”, what do you think?”

I raised an eyebrow, “so like a schoolboy look?”

“Yep, and when the clothes come off, they get to see that sexy fur covered body of yours, and when they see that big uncut cock, they will just go nuts. Oh, I almost forgot, here is the final touch.”

He reached in his coat pocket and pulled out a small red jock strap.  I held it up, “I don’t think I can fit everything into this.”

Red smiled, “that’s the whole idea, come on let’s go try these on and work on your dance routine.”

By the time it was opening time I had my dance down pretty well and I had to admit, I looked pretty cute in my outfit. As I was looking at myself in the mirror, Red came up behind me and said, “here, every little schoolboy should have a pair of nerd glasses.” He had taken the lens out of the frames, and I put them on, he was right, they did complete the look. The rest of the dancers started to show up, Red introduced them to me as they arrived. They all started getting into their costumes, everything from the usual cowboy and construction worker to a doctor in scrubs and a UPS driver. Red was dressed as a schoolteacher. It all made sense, that he had chosen the costume that he did for me, he was to be the final dancer. We had chosen the song “Too Cool for School” to start my set with, each of the dancers would be on stage for about 15 minutes, my final song was “School’s out for the summer”

The time came for me to go on stage, the lights were turned out and the crowd went quiet, I walked to my spot on the stage in the dark as I had practiced. The DJ announce the show was ready to start, “alright guys we have a brand-new dancer tonight, help me welcome to the stage your favorite schoolboy and mine, it is time to meet Little Bear.”

A couple seconds later, I heard the first line of the song, “He walks alone under the big city lights”. As soon as the line ended the spotlight come on me and I started to dance. To my surprise the crowd roared and cheered, I wasn’t expecting such a reaction. By the time the first verse was done, I was in a groove, I moved around the stage like I had been doing the dance for years. I still don’t know what came over me, but I was loving the attention, the crowd was going wild. I flung my hat and glasses to the floor, followed by the bow tie, I slowly unbuttoned the shirt and when I pulled it off, exposing my hairy chest and six pack abs, the crowd once again erupted with a cheer. I was feeding off of their energy, I dropped the suspenders to my sides and removed my shorts facing away from the audience, so they could see my fur covered ass first. I spun around in just my Keds and Jock, my cock was barely staying in the pouch. Another round of cheers and I turned my ass to the crowd again as I worked the jock down my legs, letting everyone get a good look at my ass, I turned back around with my dick flopping from side to side. I threw the jock into the crowd as their yells drowned out the music. I danced around the stage for the last verse of the final song, my cock was fully hard by the end of the song. I made my final walk along the edge of the stage gathering up my clothes and another handful of dollar bills the crowd was throwing at the stage. I got behind the curtain as the lights went out. The DJ announce the next dancer as a new song started and the lights came back on.

Red was waiting backstage and gave me a big hug, “you are a natural little man, that was amazing.”

I was grinning like I just won gold at the Olympics, “I don’t know what came over me, I just fed off the crowd.”

“I told you, I knew you would do great.”

The rest of dancers were also coming over to congratulate me, “I am sure glad I didn’t follow you, poor Trever.”

Red said, “don’t worry Trever is doing fine, just listen, we have a good audience tonight.”

Brad or Chad, I couldn’t tell them apart yet, came backstage, “Holy shit, that was hot, you got the whole crowd worked up.”

“Thanks, you really think I was that good.”

“Kid, you got me turned on right now, I’m Chad, the straight one.”

The rest of the dancers all took their turns, each one getting the same response from the crowd, I put on a pair of shorts and counted over 200 dollar bills and a few fives, even one twenty. I was excited to think, if I have a few more nights like this, I could be in an apartment by the end of the month.

I found a decent one room place that was between the club and the gym, I worked at the gym Sunday through Thursday and the club on Friday and Saturday. Red and I continued to work on my routine, and we even added a little bit to the end of his dance, he would go off stage and carry me back out on stage wearing just a jock, He would hold me up with my ass in the air and he would pull the jock off with his teeth, it was a big hit with the crowd.

Brad started to have the dancers that were not on stage, come out front and mingle with crowd. I would wear just my Keds and shorts and suspenders, some of the guys would get a little bit handsy from time to time, but the bouncers would step in in if it got too bad. Just being out in the crowd usually got us an extra 20 to 50 dollars a night.

I had finished my dance for the night and was out front one night, I worked my way around the room and noticed a table off to the side with a guy sitting alone. I made my way over to him, he looked my way, and I had a queasy feeling come over me, as I saw a familiar face.

He stood and walked toward me, “that is quite some show you put on there, that was a whole new side of you that I have never seen.”

“Thanks, what are doing here?”

“I really need to talk to you, is there some place we can go that is a little quieter?”

“I guess so, let’s go to the backroom.”

We went to the backroom that was used for private parties, it wasn’t being used tonight.

I said, “so, how have you been Josh? Did you come here to take more pictures of me to show off to your friends?”

“No Ben, look I wanted to tell you how sorry I am for what I did to you, I was stupid for trying to impress Derick, I know that I can never make it up to you, but I really am sorry.”

“Ok, you got that off your chest, I am glad you feel better about yourself. Is that all you wanted to say?”

“I deserve that, but Ben, I will always feel guilty about that day, I learned that you really are nice guy and you have been through some bad shit, and what I did really didn’t help you get over those things.”

“How the hell do you know what shit I have been through, you have no idea…”

“Ben, Chance told me a few things.”

“Chance?”

“Yeah, you know we are both playing football at college, we have become pretty good friends.”

“Really, well good for you, what else do you do, besides talk about me?”

“Ben, I have a girlfriend, Chance and I just talk, he doesn’t have anybody else to talk to since his best friend just took off and didn’t tell him where was going.”

“Look, I did what I thought I had to do, he and Lynn were just putting too much pressure on me, I just don’t need anyone looking out for me.”

“Well, Chance does.”

“What do you mean?”

“Ben, I want you to come with me, I have talked to Chance until I am blue in the face, he doesn’t even want to see me anymore. I was hoping you could try and talk to him, he is in a pretty bad place right now. Please come with me, for Chance.”
