I grabbed my earrings and quickly put them on.  I felt a pair of hands on me and felt a chain slip around my neck.  I looked down and it was my favorite charm; a  heart with a key.  I smiled and looked in the mirror.
�Ready?�
�But of course.�  He smiled and quickly kissed my cheek.  We got in the car and quickly reached the club.  I looked around and saw AJ�s and Nick�s car already there.  �Was Bri or Kev coming?�
�Not that I know of.�
�Just making sure.�  He helped me out and we walked by the crowd and started talking to the bouncer.  He quickly let us in and soon we found the guys sitting at the table.  We walked over and I quickly noticed the girls checking out my man.  "Howie?"
�Yes hon?�
�Let me have your left hand.�
�Why?� he asked, giving me his hand.
�Because, I asked for it,� I said, slipping off his wedding band.  He frowned and me and I smirked.  �Be free tonight, Howie.�  He smiled and nodded his head.  He grabbed my hand and took off the wedding bands.
�Enjoy Theresa.�  I nodded and went to sit with the guys.  They smiled and I nodded my head.
�And he�s alone tonight, you�re here, what are you two doing?� Nick asked me.
�It�s quite simple.  My man is allowed to have fun.  He doesn�t always have to be on my arm. But, if the girl starts going to far, I step in.�
�They don�t do it often.  Just usually when D is getting looked at.  Now, if you excuse me, there is a fine honey at the bar.�  AJ quickly left and soon after Nick was on the floor as well.  I sat back in my chair and watched as the Boys had fun.

Two hours later, I noticed that Howie had three girls surrounding him and having fun.  I rolled my eyes and laughed to myself.  I looked back and noticed a girls hands roaming over his body.  My eyes narrowed and the song finally came to an end.  Howie slipped away and I slipped the ring on his finger and he slipped my bands back on.  I quickly walked into the bathroom.  I started fixing my hair and started singing a song.

         
�You can pout your cherry lips/ You can flaunt your pretty eyes/ But
          he�s got his hands tied/ No chains to unlock/ So free to do what
          he wants/ He�s into what he�s got/ He loves me, he loves you not�


I looked over at the girl and smiled.  I arched my eyebrow and waved my ring finger.  I walked out of the room and back to the table and soon she came out.  Howie smiled and waved at her with his left hand.  She ran out of the club; her friends quickly following her.
�Geez, wonder what happened,� I said.  Nick looked at me and Howie started laughing.
�You�re bad honey,� Howie said.  He kissed me and I smiled.
�But of course.  After all, who wouldn�t enjoy �The Game�?�
