Tango on the dance floor.


Tango on the dance floor.

By: Wolfie Steel.

Part: 3.

We walk back to my car and I open the passenger side door for Jason, again he gives me a quiet giggle.

"Ah Tango, the perfect gentleman, thank you"

With Jason sat comfortably in his seat, I gently close the door and head around to the driver's door, I lower myself into my seat and close the door, I then fire up the engine and we begin our journey to Nightingales.

After a drive of half an hour, we finally pull up in front of the fancy and glitzy restaurant; I get out of the car and quickly move to the passenger side to help my date out of the car. I give my car keys to the smartly dressed Equine valet and we head into the restaurant. At the door we are met by a smart suited middle aged bull.

"Good evening sirs, welcome to Nightingales, I trust that you both have a reservation?"

Jason gives the bull his reply.

"Yes we do, in the name of Mr. Jason Blade, a table for two"

The bull checks his seating list and nods.

"Ah yes, well I will call someone to take you to your table, I have made sure that your instructions were followed to the letter sir, and I hope that you both enjoy your evening"

The bull looks around and spots one of his seating staff; he clicks his fingers loudly to get the Lab's attention, the Lab approaches.

"Now then Joshua, Mr. Blade and his guest are to be seated at table number nine, I want you to make sure that they are not interrupted by anyone other than their personal waiter, do I make myself clear?"

The Labrador gently nods his head and leads us towards the table, we walk through the crowded restaurant and out into the conservatory, there is just one lone table with two chairs either side of it, a candle stick with candle in the middle of the table, pristine table cloth, and the shiniest of cutlery. The Labrador leads us to our seats and then gently slips the seats under us; the Lab then bows and speaks.

"Simon, your waiter, will be out shortly to take your order; I will lock the conservatory entrance doors so that you will not be disturbed"

With that, Joshua turns and heads back through the entrance doors and then gently closes them as he exits. To say that I am in awe of everything that is going on, would be an understatement, I mean I would have been happy with just a run of the mill restaurant, or even a bar meal, I certainly was not expecting to be at the most expensive restaurant around for miles, and I certainly didn't expect to get a whole conservatory booked just for Jason and I, this really must have cost him a king's ransom.

Suddenly the lights dim to a low level and a smartly dressed Dalmatian heads our way from a door at the back of the conservatory, he then takes out a box of matches and strikes one to light the candle, he then turns to us and takes out his notepad and a pencil.

"Welcome to Nightingales guys, my name is Cane, you were supposed to be served by Simon, but I thought that a night as special as this required a more personal touch, so you get the owner of the restaurant as your private waiter, now what can I get you both?"

Both Jason and I stare at each other in shock, but after a few seconds we place our food and drinks order, the Dalmatian makes a note of our order and then quickly heads to the kitchen area to get our order started, a few moments later he arrives back with our drinks.

"Your starters will take about five minutes to prepare, so I will leave you both in peace until then"

The Dalmatian turns quickly and vanishes from sight; it is then that I look deeply into Jason's beautiful ice blue eyes, they are like lasers and are effortlessly cutting through every remaining barrier that I have. Jason takes hold of my paws and then he breaks the silence.

"Tango, I know that we have only known each other for a short while, but I have been thinking about us all day, now like you I haven't been with many partners, in fact there has been only one, a female Rottweiler, and that didn't last long, she literally was a bitch, but I get a different vibe from you, a vibe that tells me that I could well spend the rest of my days with you and not regret it, now tell me to get lost if you want too and I won't be offended, but it seems stupid to me that you and I both have our own homes, and as you have already told me, your salary just about covers your living expenses. With that in mind I want to ask you a question"

My ears instantly perk up so I can take in everything that Jason has said and is about to say.

"Tango, why don't you move into my place? I mean it will help us both out in the long run, I won't have to rush home to get showered and changed and then have to rush over to your place, and vice versa, plus it will mean that you get to keep more money in your pocket, but above all else it will mean that on dark cold and rainy nights, we can both snuggle up together in front of a roaring open fire, watching some gushy movie on the TV"

My muzzle falls open at the proposal, it takes a few minutes for me to process what has just been said, but the more I think about it the more it makes sense, just as I'm about to answer, our starters arrive so I decide to think more as we eat.

<><><><><>

After five minutes or so we finish our first course and I give him a gentle smile, I lean forward and to the side of the candle and I place a loving kiss on his left cheek.

"Jay, everything you have said has made sense, it would make life a great deal easier for the both of us, but I do have to warn you that if we do move in together, I do come with quite a lot of baggage. I told you that I was no expert in being with a male and that is true, but I have been with a male and was abused quite badly, I still live with some of the scars today, both mental and physical. I will admit though, while you and I are still relative strangers, I do get the feelings of love, warmth and protection, which is something that I never felt from... my previous mate"

As Jason hears about my abusive previous mate he lets out a menacing low growl and his paws grip tighter around mine, I can see in his eyes that if my previous mate was in the room now, there would be much blood spilt, as Jason is about to make his reply, Cane comes back to the table to remove the empty bowls from the first course.

"Well gents, your main course will be here in about five minutes, I take it that your starters met with your approval?"

Jason lets go of my paws and thanks the Dalmatian for what has been a delicious meal for the first course, Cane bows again and is off back to the kitchen, Jason now looks back to me and gives me his reply.

"Tango, sweetheart, there is no way in hell that I will ever hurt you, your previous mate however, well he will be fair game, all I want is to see you happy because I know that underneath that sexy Doberman fur, there is a heart of pure solid gold. Being a fitness instructor does pay fairly well and does keep me in shape, but Tango, if I were to get your heart fully I would be the richest Doberman in the universe"

A tear forms in my eye as I hear his loving words, and the more he talks the more I just want to be with him.

"Jason, I am ready to give you my heart, I want to be with you for as long as I possibly can, so tomorrow when I go into work I will book myself a week's vacation, and when that vacation comes, with your approval I will start to move my stuff into your home, truth be known though hon, you have seen everything that I own so I won't take up much space"

Jason's muzzle is completely engulfed in a smile that reaches from ear to ear and I'm quite sure that his stubby tail is wagging like it's on fire. I know that some of you will say that we are moving too fast, and yes you are probably right, but at this moment I believe that we are making the right decision.

The rest of the meal goes by with two Dobermans who are very much in love and very happy indeed. The meal itself was top class and very tasty, but nothing can match the hunky and loving Doberman that sits opposite me. I pull out my wallet to help pay the bill but a paw is raised to stop me.

"Tango, I meant what I said, this meal is on me, you have made me one of the most happy guys in the known universe tonight, so paying this bill means nothing to me, now I know that you have work tomorrow, but why don't we head back to your place so that you can collect some things that you will need, and then head back to what will become our home?"

I give Jason a beaming smile and nod my head, it would do me good to see the house that has been a home to this godly and hunky dog. Once the bill is paid we leave the restaurant and head back to the valet at the front, I hand the guy my ticket and he heads off to collect my car.

As Jason and I stand there waiting for my car, another car goes by that I really wish I had not seen, it is a car that I know only too well, the car of my ex. The car pulls up to the curb and the tall and well dressed pit bull gets out and walks over to me, an angry look on his muzzle.

"This place is a bit pricey for a dumb fuck like you to eat in alone"

Jason starts to growl in his deep voice and then he looks at me.

"Tango, is this the bastard that abused you?"

I let out a whimper and weakly nod my head, I know that I should try and stop Jason but at this moment I'm too weak and upset to do anything, Jason turns back to the pit bull.

"How could you hurt somebody like Tango, he is one of the most incredible guys that I have ever met and now I'm standing muzzle to muzzle with the guy who abused Tango's heart, let me tell ya bud, your face is about to get an imprint of my balled up paw, I'm gonna teach you a fuckin' lesson that you won't forget"

The pit bull begins to snicker.

"Oh this is fucking priceless, so poor old Tango has landed himself another fuck toy huh? Well it'll be nice to get rid of two Doberman dead beats, a two for one offer you might say"

The pit bull balls up his paw and lets fly with his fist, but Jason is just too quick for him and dodges the punch, me however, I am not so lucky, the punch that is meant for Jason connects with my muzzle and puts me on my butt, the strength of the punch has knocked one of my teeth out and I can feel blood trickling from my nose.

I start to black out but not before I see Jason land a perfect uppercut to the Pit bulls chin, sending him out cold to the pavement. Just as he hits the ground my car pulls up, I feel Jason lift me up into his strong arms and then with the help of the valet he sits me in the passenger seat of the car.

<><><><><><>

I start to come round and find that I'm in a place that I don't recognise, my brain is trying to process so much information as to my whereabouts, I'm not at home, I'm not at Jason's place, suddenly the memory of the punch comes back to me, it's then that I realise that I'm in hospital.

Jason sees me wake up and quickly comes to my side; I notice that he has a bandage around his paw.

"J...Jason, what is going on? Where is Alex? And more to the point why am I here?"

Jason lets out a sigh.

"Well love, that asshole of an ex of yours threw a punch at me, while I managed to dodge the punch, you I'm afraid didn't, he knocked out one of your teeth and gave you a pretty nasty nose bleed, you were also out for close on four hours"

I let out a gasp as I realise that it must be the early hours of the morning.

"Jason, what time is it? I need to get to work"

Jason shakes his head.

"I have called your boss and told him that you won't be into work for a day or so, don't worry I didn't tell him why, I just said that you weren't feeling too good"

I look at Jason's paw and he giggles slightly.

"I think I put a little too much power into the punch that I dealt Alex, I got a broken knuckle for my trouble"

Man if Alex was mad at me before, this would probably send him over the edge, but the way I see it is who cares, two Dobies would make mincemeat out of a Pit Bull any day, the fact that one of them is a fitness instructor with huge muscles, well that is just the very sweet icing on a very large cake.
