He takes my arms off his neck and pulls me to his lips to kiss. "I've waited a long time for you."

My heart melts again. "I'm one lucky girl!"

He cinches us together, and we walk down the sidewalk. "We have a date tonight."

I start to skip alongside him, grinning at him. "Where are we going?"

"Back to the Hotel."

"No." I swat him. "Where is the date?"

"Ah! That's a secret!"

"I love your secrets!" I twirl around.

Walking hand in hand back to the Metro train, I swing our arms. When we stop at the traffic light to wait, I see a small skinny flagpole without a flag.

My mind drifts back to the early days at Been Jammin when Laura, a girl named Betsy, and I would hit the sidewalks of Vegas performing pole dances, advertising our venue.

That was a long time ago.... And a lot of fun!

I let go of Aurei's hand and trot over. I push it, then pull it. I hear Aurei's voice as he approaches.

"Really? Tell me you aren't about to...."

I give him a wicked smile, then spread my arms wide, squeeze my legs together and lift my body sideways off the ground.

"I guess you are." He stops and smiles. A gust of wind blows my hair in my face, and I lose him as everything goes blonde. Someone shouts up the sidewalk, and I hear the familiar sound of excited voices and footsteps approaching. "Wild Thang, you are attracting attention to yourself."

"What was shouted?"

"They think you are imitating a flag."

I flex my feet and point my toes while my hips roll with a very soft motion.

Then twice, I add my knees, sharpening the movement.

When a gust blows my hair again, I arch my back and push the waving motion down my whole body, and wiggle my toes.

"Ah! Uuuu!" I hear some children's voices and a few claps.

"Very good," Aurei tells me. His voice has moved. He is standing right beside me.

I push myself up the rest of the way and hug the pole. My hair falls out of my face as I hang upside down. I start to giggle.

"What's so funny, Silly Thang."

"I feel like a blonde bat hanging here."

"You look like a blonde bombshell hanging there."

"Can I have a Spiderman kiss?" I ask excitedly.

"Sure." He laughs and leans over, dipping down, so his lips touch mine. He doesn't give me any tongue. He only gives me his soft, firm, sweet nibbling kiss. When he pulls away, he sucks my bottom lip, and I see the desire in his eyes. "I love how strong you are!"

"You can do better than that." I tease him.

"Not now, Kitten Thang."

I purr.

He grins, and I see his sexy half-smile. "You need to come down. Your nipples are right on the edge of popping out."

"Oh, dear. That wouldn't be appropriate right now.

" There are a few parents with children standing in a small group closest to us.

People all up and down the sidewalks, even on the other side of the street, are watching, wondering what I will do next.

I hook my leg and push my skirt up, but my tits are beyond tucking.

I grip the pole behind my back up at my waist, then release my leg and start to walk in the air toward the ground.

I hear, "Ah! Oh! Bravo!" When I've reached the limit of my grip, I tuck my legs in and let go, dropping to the ground.

When I stand, I treat them all to a significant hair flip.

Aurei is leaning against the pole, and his eyes are locked on my tits.

They bounce and settle in place, but I tease him doing my shimmy shake.

There are claps from the onlookers, and I look around at all the happy, smiling faces watching me. I give them a quick bow and wave to everyone.

"You are such a showoff." He tells me as he comes to stand next to me.

"Showoff? Is that what you think I do?" I lean back and give him my 'I can't believe you just said that to me' look.

"Isn't it?"

I give him my Siri-ous face, full of southern girl attitude. "Look around, Mr. Moore. Tell me what you see." I wave my arm around to the crowd of people.

He looks around. "I see a crowd of people watching someone showing off her skills."

"Annnnk. Try again."

"I see a crowd of people who enjoyed your show." He teases me as he cinches our hands and leads me across the street.

"Maybe, but...." I wag my finger at him. "Look at them. Really look at their faces. See their eyes." I nod to a couple of older women coming towards us. They are giving me a small gesture of applause. "That! That right there. That's what it is all about, Aurei Moore."

"What? Applause?"

"NO!" I stop, and he easily pulls me along. I punch his arm when I'm even with him.

His eyes are twinkling, and he is smirking. "Ouch, Mean Thang!"

"Applause.... I'm insulted." I shake my head, tossing my hair around, then flip it up in true drama queen fashion as I walk-march along with him.

At the next light, we have to wait to cross the street again.

Pouting, I keep my head turned away as he stalks my face, dodging and dipping until he finally pins it and kisses my nose.

"Then what? Tell me. What is it all about? Why do you perform for people?"

I roll my eyes. "Happy faces! I do what I do to give them happy faces.

" I look out at the people around us. "Look how many right here are frowning, or are sad, or seem to be bored with life.

But when I do something as simple as this.

" I bend at the waist, place my hands on the sidewalk, lift my straight legs up over my head, then walk around him on my hands.

When I stand back up, I return the smiles of those closest to me as I finish my reasoning.

"There are always smiles. Don't you get that? "

"Happiness is what you do?"

"That's right!" I laugh using that funny voice inflection while nodding my head fast.

He laughs out loud. "Oh yeah, I totally get that, Happy Thang!"
