How Rat Met Candy: Is it just a job, or is it love?

By Selena

It's another night at the strip club, and Rat has realized they haven't shaved their legs. Out of nowhere, a colleague they've never really talked to before, Candy, starts up conversation. She invites Rat to join in on a private show with a big spender client.

Candy inspects Rat, intimately, and Rat finds themselves getting turned on even though this is a normal activity in their line of work. Rat wonders if the chemistry is real, but are afraid to reveal they're transitioning.

Once the rich customer, Paulie, arrives, the two strippers bring him back to a VIP room. They get into the mood with a few glasses of champagne, some cocktails, and some extra courage, and the private show begins. Even though Paulie is crude and loud, he doesn't stop Rat from enjoying Candy, maybe a little too much. They wonder if it would be this nice outside off the clock.

Selena offers an exciting glimpse behind the scenes of a strip club, and tells a story from the perspective of a stripper who is searching for understanding and a sexy connection.

You have perfect nipples.

Rat looked up, unsure of who was addressing them. They were sitting in a booth beside one of the mini stages for VIP dances. Rat had been lost in thought, typing a to-do checklist into their phone. They had forgotten a very important detail: to shave. They hated forgetting important details. Rat reached down self-consciously, and rubbed the stubble emerging on their shins, then grimaced. There was no doubt they would receive some snide comment from a troll of a man about it.

Yo, did you hear me?

Rat realized they had forgotten to respond to the compliment. A dancer was now occupying the mini stage beside them.

Thanks! Rat finally answered, smiling uncomfortably.

Rat had forgotten that they were wearing a bodystocking dress. It was always a crowd pleaser, especially because their nipples were clearly visible under the sheer fabric. It was garment enough that they didn’t get in trouble for violating the dress code, but sheer enough that customers didn’t need to struggle to imagine what was underneath.

I’m Candy, what’s your name? Candy asked as she spun around the pole, landing gracefully on her knees.

Lilith, Rat responded.

Cute name. You like girls, Lilith? She wiped sweat from her brow and grinned mischievously at Rat. Candy combed her fingers through her mess of long, tangled brown hair.

I like everybody, Rat replied, rote, realizing belatedly that it was perhaps a more pointed question. It was the standard answer Rat gave to men looking for a bi-curious experience.

Perfect,
