For Jack and Lionel - Homeplot part 3

[new_ophelia]

While Lionel had wanted to take the Asten Something-or-other car, Jack had insisted that it would only draw more attention to him and after what Kate had heard about the underwear store, she agrees with him.  This just wasn't as much of an issue in New Burbage and Kate's really not sure how to deal with it. Should she step away when they take pictures? Are they going to touch him? Are the guys at the gay club going to touch him? Are they going to think that Kate is Jack's beard who is really covering for Lionel? With whom he buys panties? These are the questions that Kate mulls over as they make their way to what Jack promises is one of the best gay clubs. Or so he's heard. Or so he says he's just heard.

"Okay, so are we going to get in line?" Kate asks, squeezing Jack's hand as she tugs at the black, clingy shirt that she's certain was Jack's idea. There is a long line outside the club and...a neon pink sign hung above the door of The Manhole. Lionel makes a noise halfway between a grunt of horror and amusement as that came into view. Jack just gives him a grin and walks past the line of people whose heads start swivelling almost comically. Almost comically.

Lionel does what Kate explains, and it does make the drink better. He's sure it doesn't work right away, but the knowledge that it'll kick in some time soon is enough of a courage booster. He just shrugs when Kate asks if they want to dance, and gives Jack an amused look when he suggests they all dance. "I guess?"

He's kind of curious about how that works, but taking a look on the dance floor, Lionel's pretty sure how it works doesn't really matter. Not in the way he's thinking, anyway.

Kate didn't exactly mean all together like a weird threesome thing, but she thinks that it is very important that Lionel dance, flirt, and drink in a gay club. That way the night is actually the entire cliched experience. "Do you want another drink?" she asks Lionel, thinking another shot might help the freakish amount of staring they are all receiving. God, aren't there other famous people in this city? On second though, just the one shot might be affecting her a tad.

"I think Kate's trying to get you drunk," Jack points out with a teasing grin, resting against the bar, his elbows up on the edge as he looks at the other people in the club. There are some familiar faces, but they're the people who aren't staring and Jack appreciates that. The others are calming down a bit, backing off, getting over him and his new surprise girlfriend.

"I'm kind of okay with getting drunk," Lionel says, shooting Jack a smile. He doesn't really notice the people staring or not staring; he's finally got his fill of the place and knows where Kate's coming from. "You're not going to dance?" he asks Jack, and bites back a smile.

"Then cheers to you, Lionel," Kate says, handing Lionel another Car Bomb. Apparently, pointing to Jack and Lionel gets her served much, much more quickly. She quickly downs her own shot and grabs Jack. "You're coming with us because I'm not leaving you here with all of them," she says, squeezing his hand possessively.
