Ray merrimen fanfic ..... my first time so please be kind.
You pulled the last section of your long black hair through the straighteners giving you that beach curl that you always wore . Flipping your head upside down to give your hair a bit of volume. You was ready for your shift at the strip club. Even though the manager had tried to convince you to be a dancer you had politely declined and applied for the waitress job at weekends. You just needed that extra bit of money to pay your rent and keep your day job open(a garage that you had inherited from your father before he got shot ) round here it was more difficult to keep a independent garage open than you had realised but you didn’t want to give it up as it had meant so much to your father.looking in the mirror of the dressing rooms you knew this was as good at it got applying your red lipstick just to make some sort for effort . The boss knew you where a different kind of girl when he hired you but that didn’t stop him from trying to get you to wear the usual slutty outfit. But tonight the red lipstick would have to be enough as you had on your black leggings that where high waisted and a cut off guns and roses tshirt that had seen better days .your favourite pair of scuffed vans graced your feet they where just so comfortable. You shrugged as you left the girls dressing room.
It was a busy night . But no more than you where use to you had been working here about 2 months now and had got into the swing of things .
As the music blared and the flow of alcohol steadied the bar man handed you a tray with 3 beers on and 3 jack Daniels and motioned a table number to you . You nodded and made your way over to the table at the far end of the club in one of the booths . Where you noticed 3 fairly big guys sitting chatting to themselves not even paying attention to the dancers. As you put the tray down on the table your eyes looked up and where met with the bigger guy out of the 3 . He must of been over 6 foot, thick with muscle. You could see tattoos peaking out of his vest . you looked up into his eyes and all you could think was Jesus christ feeling a slight tingling sensation down stairs and with all the distraction you accidentally knocked over one of the jacks into his lap “OH MY GOD IM SO SORRY “ and without thinking you start wiping at his crotch with your towel until it dawns on you what your actually doing and you stop “fuck ” you go bright red . But the silverback just sits there. you look up into his eyes. “Usually you have to pay extra for that kind if treatment around here “ you frown at him and stand up pulling your hand back ready to go in for a slap but at the same time he rises to and your head just about comes up to his chest . Unable to reach his face now you thinks twice as the mass of man looms over you. Just staring at you he smiles and raises his eyebrows at you, leaning down to your ear he whispers “id rather see you up there any day ” nodding to the stage .you cant think of a comeback you just melt feeling his breath against your ear and his beard on your cheek . You let out an unexpected “oh god ” and instantly die inside after you realise what you have said. The man lets out a laugh and replies “im afraid not im just ray. ray merrimen an” you cant help but smirk looking at him you hold out your hand “ mellisa” and with that he grabs your hand in his massive mit and brings it up to his mouth placing a kiss on the back of it “nice to meet you”. The moment is quickly ruined when another waitress comes over with a replacement drink and grabs your wrist pulling you away “come on mellisa . You have work to do remember” nodding you follow her still staring at ray.
After a lecture from your college you are placed on behind the bar duty. You guess so that you have no opportunities to tip drinks over the customers again. But every chance you get you look over to that table and keep saying his name in your head smiling to yourself. You notice ray keeps looking over at you to smiling everytime your eyes meet which turns you into a giggling mess . How the hell did he have this much power over you . You had only just met for god sake .
But your gushing was interrupted by screaming and people ducking down as “POLICE,THIS IS A RAID ,GET ON THE GROUND” was shouted and police rammed there way into the club. In all the commotion and distractions you forgot to drop to the ground causing one of the members of the police to notice you . “Hey sweet cheeks”he shouted. SHIT you thought as you noticed his name badge (nick o brien) you knew you was in trouble big nick as he was know wasn’t an officer to fuck about with. Him and his crew had made a name for themselves for not doing things by the book and it was common knowledge that if you crossed paths with this crew you ended up mysteriously going missing . It wasn’t unusual for the cops to raid the club infact it happened most weekends but there was a code especially if it was nicks crew you ducked and let them do what they had to do if you didn’t want to draw attention to yourself. They mostly just found the odd dealer and drugs for personal use but you couldn’t understand why they raided so regularly like they were expecting something to happen at the club.
Before you knew it nick made his was over to you and had grabbed you by the arm pinning it up your back placing his other arm around your neck. You noticed ray stand up but before he came any closer you used everything in you to flip the big cop up over your shoulder slamming him onto his back on the floor infront of you . Instantly you raised both hands as your legs where kicked from under you and you where cuffed by 2 members of the force.yes you where a girl and you where small but your dad had taught you to fight as he has always wanted a boy . Even putting you through kickboxing classes through high school but you realised this time even though it was just your instinct kicking in it was a mistake.nick got up to his feet angry and embarrassed he made a joke trying not to make it obvious his pride was hurt “jesus lads shes a fisty one” kneeling down to your face on the floor he spits in your face “you’ll regret that “ you glare at him. Before he could act the manager of the club cuts in “nick come on man,your disturbing my business “ nick snorts “come on lads back to the station that’s enough fun for one night “ your lifted to your feet and uncuffed nick gets right in your face nose to nose giving you an evil look pointing his finger in your face “ ill be paying close attention to you feisty” and with that the cops leave the club . You rub your wrists where the cuffs had been watching them exit then running to the bathroom so you can hide the tears streaming down your face as your realise you got away with that lightly. You turn the tap on running your wrists under the cool water letting it take off that sting . You didn’t notice someone slip in behind you until you look in the mirror. You jump out of your skin as ray stands at the back of you. You wipe away your tears trying to keep some dignity. Ray just stares at you in the mirror. You turn round to face him and he grabs your hands examining your red wrists “they hurt “ he says nodding at them . You just shake your head yes. For a moment you both just stand in that shitty bathroom with him gently rubbing your wrists then he breaks the silence “worth it to watch you drop him “ you look up at him and just smile and with that he lets his grip go “you got a phone” you hand him ur phone he presses some buttons hands it back and makes his way to the door he pauses for just a moment and you wish for him to turn around but he doesn’t. When hes gone you look down to your phone ray 07953462195 a small smile creeps on your face a you stare at your phone .
