stood over him grinning, his teeth covered in blood which was now dripping down his chin.
A group gathered and laughed at the man on the ground, just laying there, rubbing his forehead. Someone started to pour beer on his face and that jarred him enough to stagger to his feet. The bloody mouth guy, still with his fists clenched, moved forward and it looked like he was going to knock the other one out again but then they hugged each other like old buddies and the crowd shoved beers into their hands.
Clutch came back, handed her a bottle of beer, and sat down next to her with his arm around her shoulder.
She sipped her beer then started into him.
“So, how do you know Big Dave?”
“He’s a fat fucker isn’t he?” Not answering her question.
“Yeah, he is. I’ve only been working there a couple months.”
“You like it?”
“It’s okay I guess. Big Dave’s kind of an asshole.” Trying to get him going on that subject.
“He’s not so bad once you get to know him.”
“You’ve known him a while?”
“Kinda. My family’s been friends with his family since way back.”
“Oh yeah?” Hoping he would elaborate but instead he looked around the room like he might be getting bored with her.
“This is a wild party,” she said. “While you were gone there was a fight.”
“Nah,“ he said. “This is tame. And that was no fight.”
A young, pretty girl wearing jeans and a t-shirt, barefoot, came up to them.
“Hey baby,” she said as she sat down into Clutch’s lap.
He kissed her hard then broke away and introduced her. “This is Amber. Amber this is my old lady, Rhonda.”
“Nice to meet you,” the girl said and stuck out her hand.
“Umm. Nice to meet you too.” Amber shook her hand, unsure what was going on, then looked from Clutch to Rhonda and back to Clutch again. “Sorry, I didn’t realize, that, uh.”
“What” Rhonda said to Clutch, “you didn’t tell her you had an old lady?”
He grinned. “Well, it never came up.”
The girl rolled her eyes. “He does this all the time,” she said. “Brings home a girl, not telling her about me, just to see what she’ll do. Probably to see what I’ll do too.”
“I don’t think I understand,” Amber said.
“Well,” Rhonda said, “have you ever heard of polyamory?”
“You mean like swinging?”
“Kinda,” Rhonda said. “But swinging is just about fucking. Don’t get me wrong, fucking is nice. I love to fuck.” She smiled and looked at Clutch. He nodded in agreement. “But, polyamory’s not just about fucking. It’s about having an actual relationship between multiple people. Like, love, you know? It’s out in the open and everyone involved knows what’s going on.”
“So,” Amber said, “you two also have relationships with other people?”
“Yeah,” Clutch said.
Rhonda nodded and added, “Yes, but right now it’s just us two. Shit happens you know.”
They both looked to Amber, waiting for a response.
“I think I’m going to need another drink,” Amber said and Clutch laughed at her again.
The three of them spent the next couple hours chatting and joking around. Amber kept looking for any sign in Clutch of the man he’d become in the bathroom earlier, a knife-wielding psycho, but he was just charming and relaxed.
Now that Rhonda was there, it was impossible to steer the conversation back towards Big Dave so Amber just went with the flow and tried to figure out what her next move should be. Back at the bar she thought she would just be able to seduce the biker in order to get close to him but now it seemed she would have to seduce both of them if she were going to go that route.
Amber had no idea how to do that though. She’d never been with a woman before much less a man and a woman at the same time. But sitting there on the couch, talking with them, she was getting excited about the idea of being with the two of them. Plus, it would certainly help her
