Chapter 49

Lucinda's POV

With the wedding just two days away Matty and Dee have been really stressed. Me and Donny help out at much as we can and yesterday we spent the whole day trying to fix an error on the seating chart.

Apparently some moron had misspelt a couple of things and we had to return all of the cards and remake all three hundred of them. I happened to find that waking up this morning was a horrendous experience but I had to go and do something.

All changed and ready to go I filled Evgeny's food bowl and water, cleaned out his litter box and put in some fresh soil, bid him goodbye then grabbed my keys then headed out.

I yanked the front door open and found Donny standing there with his fist in the air. I assumed he was just about to knock and he dropped his hand.

"Hey... Do you need something?"

"Um... No. I just came over to see whether you were busy."

"Uh yeah... I was just about to head downtown. Wanna come with?"

"Sure."

I stepped outside and locked my door. Once in my driveway I opened the garage and took the car out. Donny climbed in the passenger seat and we on our way.

"So where are going?"

"To see some old friends..."

"Do I know these old friends?"

"I highly doubt it but who knows, maybe you might."

We settled into a subtle conversation after that. Cracking a few jokes here and there and arguing about certain movie preferences. About an hour later I pulled up into the parking lot of Amnesia.

Although it was daytime, the club was still as vibrant as ever. Loud music from inside could be heard outside. A long line stood next to the building while I bunch of people dressed in skimpy attire waited for their turn at entering.

"What are we doing at a club?"

"To see some old friends."

"Your old friends are at a club?"

"They own it."

With that I got out of the car and Donny followed suite. After locking the doors I approached the entrance. I confidently strided up to the door and found Timothy at the door.

He had a stoic expression on his face but as soon as he saw me he broke out into a smile. I slightly jogged up to him and embraced him in a hug.

"Hey Timmy... How've you been?"

"Better now that you're here. You never visit anymore..."

"I know and I'm sorry. I promise I will try to make time to come over and see all of you guys."

"You better... Now what brings you here Luce?"

"Are Aiden and Adam here?"

"Yeah, just up in the office. And who is this you brought with you?"

I turned and found Donny watching our exchange with a hint of curiosity in his eyes. I turned back to Timmy to answer his question.

"This is Donavan... A friend of mine. And Donavan this is Timothy."

"Well any friend of Luce is a friend of mine."

"Likewise..."

They shook hands and exchanged polite greetings. After a little more conversation me and Donny headed inside besides the protest of multiple people.

Once inside, the overwhelming scent of alcohol, sweat and smoke filled the air which was almost suffocating. Although the room was dark, multiple neon lights flashed everywhere and loud music blasted from every corner in the room.

Not being sure that Donny would be able to follow me I grabbed his hand and began leading him towards the stairs. Amnesia was a three story building. The first floor was usually for the common folk who were looking to get drunk and have a good time.

The second floor was for the VIP's who spent a lot of money just to have a private room to drink and brag about all of the money they just accumulated while getting attention from all kinds of gold-diggers you can find.

The third and final floor is where the office of the owners is aka Aiden and Adam. After making it past the second floor we passed the security guard there and made it up the steps to the office.

I opened the door to find find no one in the office. I looked around a bit and saw that the trap door to the roof was open so I climbed up the little fire escape ladder and climbed onto the roof.

There they sat on the leather couches with a glass of bourbon in the hands chatting away without a care in the world. I actually came up with the idea of making a small make-shift lounge on the roof because it looked like a cool place to chill.

At first it was just camping chairs and a cooler box but months later it became a jacuzzi with leather couches, a coffee table along with miny bar and a shade to protect from the sun's glaring rays during the day.

This was probably one of the best places I used to hang at before I moved uptown. Sometimes I find myself missing it from time to time. But unfortunately I live on this realm with time limit so I don't really have time for much pleasure.

Donny followed me up shortly and soon enough we were both standing on the roof to my small piece of heaven. Aiden and Adam had been so engrossed in their conversation that they hadn't noticed our presence.

"Conversation that good huh?"

The both stopped talking and turned their heads to me and Donny. Adam broke out into a beaming smile and so did Aiden. Adam stood up and approached me with his arms open wide. I met him halfway an embrace him in a tight bear hug.

"Luce... We had no idea you were coming!"

"Yeah yeah... Quit hogging her brother. I want my hug too."

I chuckled and detangled from Adam and embraced Aiden in a tight hug. I found Adam's eyes fixed behind me and I turned to look at a slightly agitated Donavan.

His eyes were fixed on the two men behind me and I noticed his eye twitch slightly. What's wrong with him?

"Oh guys... This is Donavan... A friend of mine and Donavan this is Aiden and Adam. The owners of Amnesia."

"Really... That's all we are to you... 'the owners of Amnesia'?"

I glared at Adam's condescending tone but dismissed it. The greeted each other and we were offered drinks before we sat down.

"Okay... Luce I love you and all but what are you doing here?"

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"Like I said... I love you but you never visit without a reason. So what's up?"

Sadly... It was true. With so much little time, most of times when I visit it's because I probably need something and this is one of those times.

"I'm assuming you've heard about the expansion of Club Red by Mathias Xortis"
