Chapter Jeangry
POV: West
I storm out of the club and look around wildly, the feeling of running away is overwhelming but I can still see Asher's face when I said I was leaving. A certain insecurity, lust and disappointment were visible in his eyes and I am to blame for that. My attraction to him has really overwhelmed me, but it's now more than clear... I like Asher. And maybe even more than like, but I can't think about that at the moment.
I don't know how long I stand outside looking into the distance, but it's definitely more than 10 minutes later when I decide to apologize to Asher for running away. I rush back in and spot Asher in the same spot at the bar, he is talking to the bartender and I don't like the grin the bartender gives him. But I like the next action he takes even less, because the bartender leans over the bar and pulls Asher's head towards him. I don't know how long they kiss, but for me it's too long and I'm not going to sit here stupidly waiting for them to finish.
Anger and jealousy flow through me and I feel like I'm being played...
But on the other hand, I ran away after our kiss... So maybe this is his way of getting back at me or forgetting about me.
I can't remember how I got home but I fall on my bed without undressing and before I know it I'm in dreamland. The next day I wake up with a pounding headache and everything from the night before flies before my eyes. I walk to the refrigerator but see that I only have drinks and that it is time to do some shopping. I decide to go to the nearest bakery where they also happen to serve the best coffee.
I order a large black coffee and a turkey sandwich, then I take a seat at the back of the shop where I can sit quietly at a table. The image of Asher and the bartender keeps coming up and I find myself getting angry again, why did he have to move on to another man so quickly?
An employee places my food in front of me and I devour the sandwich in no time, apparently I was hungry.
"Well, Well Well, fancy seeing you again" someone says and I glance up and see the man from yesterday's club, I just forgot his name. I think the man sees me thinking because a grin appears on his face and he laughs softly.
"Jimmy, from yesterday at the club?" he says with twinkling eyes and I nod.
"Ah yes, Jimmy... Hi" I mumble and he apparently sees my answer as an invitation to join me at the table. I frown at him and wonder how someone can be so forward, he doesn't seem to sense when he is not welcome.
"So... Where's your boyfriend?" he asks as he leans back in the chair and looks at me challengingly. It's that his personality is a bit strange but he is certainly a handsome man. Not as muscular and big as Asher, but he has good height and my guess is that he has quite an athletic build.
"He's not my boyfriend" I mumble as I take a few sips of my coffee and avoid his gaze.
''Okay, I have to say... That was a very hot man to look at! All those muscles...'' he says almost dreamily and I feel an intense jealousy coming on because he has looked so closely at Asher.
I just... don't know how to respond, so I shrug my shoulders a bit sheepishly and continue to focus on my coffee.
"So you're single?" I feel a hand on my shoulder and my head flies to the side and I look at his hand on my shoulder, and then at him. He has a flirty look on his face and he looks at me expectantly, I realize I've been staring for a while and haven't answered yet.
''Uh... Yeah? I think so'' I mumble and I see Jimmy nod.
"So... I have a chance?" he says with a big grin and my eyebrows shoot up, this man has balls.
"You're very... Direct" I say and Jimmy starts laughing and shrugs his shoulders.
"I just know what I want" he says softly, sliding his hand from my shoulder and resting it on my thigh.
A slight panic arises in me, I have never flirted with a man before or a man has never flirted with me. This is uncharted territory and I'm not sure what to do...
One: Does it work the same as for women?
Two: Asher's revelation from yesterday is still in the back of my mind, despite how the evening turned out.
Three: I don't know anything about Jimmy, what if he's a psychopath?
"I need to go to the toilet" I mumble and I get up and rush to the toilet. It's only one toilet so luckily I have some time to collect myself. That doesn't work out well because the door opens and Jimmy walks in, he turns the lock and takes a few steps forward so that he is close to me.
"I have the feeling... This is new territory for you, is that right?" he asks softly as he places a hand on my chest and pushes me against the wall. I nod silently and swallow loudly as his hand slides down and rests on my belt.
"There's nothing better... Than discovering new things" he whispers in my ear and I feel his tongue slide over my neck.
"And you... Got my attention yesterday and I couldn't stop thinking about you last night" he whispers and his mouth comes to mine.
I stand stiffly still but I decide to kiss him back, my blood flows south and I feel that he is suffering from that too. Suddenly he drops to his knees and I see that he had already unfastened my pants without me realizing it.
With a speed that I can't follow with my foggy head at the moment, he pulls my erection out of my pants and goes to work. I rest my head against the wall and enjoy his warm mouth that works expertly. He doesn't have to work for very long because in no time I cum in his mouth and he intensifies my orgasm by playing with my balls.
"Fuuuucckk" I moan loudly and I hear him chuckle as he takes his mouth away from me.
My foggy head clears and suddenly I realize what just happened, I'm not much better than Asher at the moment and that really bothers me.
"Sorry... This was a mistake" I mumble and step around him, unlock the door and storm out of the cafe.

POV: Navy
I push the bartender away and shake my head, the moment West left he was flirting with me but I didn't pay attention at first. But as soon as I gave him some attention he almost pulled me over the bar and kissed me.
What is it with men today who impose themselves without asking?
Or men who don't realize that they are not wanted.
I throw some cash on the bar and storm out, what a terrible evening this has become. Once home I see that Jackson isn't there, but he's probably sleeping at the club tonight. My shower takes way to long but I don't care, standing in the shower is the perfect place to clear your thoughts.
After my revelation, West... Chris... took the initiative to kiss me again, and that gives me a little hope. I suspect that, like me before, he is very confused and doesn't really know what to do with himself.
I decide to give him a few days, and if he doesn't contact me in that time, I will confront him myself.
***
It's a few days later and it's Friday, I'm sitting in my own bedroom at the club listening to some music and waiting until we can have breakfast. I woke up extremely early so I decided to chill out in my room before the day starts. My peace is disturbed by a pounding on my door and a voice calling out, "Church!" I sit up and put on jeans and a T-shirt, then I stomp downstairs and walk straight into the meeting room where we have church.
Hammer, Ink and my brother are already sitting at the table waiting for everyone to take a seat. I try to read from Jackson's face whether he is serious, but of course I should know better, that man shows very little emotion.
“Men!” Hammer begins in a loud voice while hitting the table with a gavel. I look around and catch West's intense eyes, he frowns and looks away.
He seems... Angry?
Shit... Is he still angry because of what happened at the club? I'm tired of the uncertainty and decide to confront him after church.
“First, I would like to say that in light of Chef's absence, I have allowed Morgan to find a replacement. She starts this morning and I want you to behave properly towards our new guest. Morgan has done her best lately, but she also realizes that fewer and fewer men are continuing to eat at the club.'' he says and I see a lot of surprised faces. If he has allowed a replacement to be found, there is a good chance that Chef will not show his face for the time being.
''Second... What I understand... But this could be is gossip... Chef has gotten involved in things he shouldn't get involved in. The difficult thing is that I don't know if this is true, and if it is true, what kind of cases these would be. But... Just to be on the safe side, from now on I always want two people at the gate, and no one just comes in. We no longer just take friends who are not members, you first discuss them with me or Ink and Jackson'' there is a unanimous murmur of approval and Hammer nods approvingly.
"And lastly... I want you ungrateful dogs to just come back to eat at the club and swallow what Morgan and our new guest put in front of you" he says semi sternly and there is laughter in the room. Hammes hits the table with his gavel and church is over,
West shoots outside but I don't let him escape. I grab him by the upper arm and pull him upstairs to my room, he sputters a bit but this doesn't mean anything to me...
We're going to talk, no matter how angry or confused he is.
