The Center of the World Page #4

Synopsis: A couple checks into a suite in Las Vegas. In flashbacks we see that he's a computer whiz on the verge of becoming a dot.com millionaire, she's a lap dancer at a club. He's depressed, withdrawing from work, missing meetings with investors. He wants a connection, so he offers her $10,000 to spend three nights with him in Vegas, and she accepts with conditions: four hours per night of erotic play, and no penetration. During the days in Vegas, they get to know each other, have fun, meet a friend of hers; at night, at least after the first night, things seem to get complicated. Is mutual attraction stirring? Will they play by their rules? Can it be about more than money?

Don't be such a f***ing whore.

Why are you talking to me

like I'm beneath you,

Like we have no f***ing history?

I know you, Florence.

And we are the same.

- No, we're not.

- F*** you.

F*** you!

F*** you and your f***ing money!

Is she okay?

Is she all right?

You mad at me?

Hey. Oh. Shh.

Are you sad?

Don't be sad.

Don't be sad.

Come here.

Feel my cock.

You can wrap your whole hand

around it. It's so hard.

You just hold it really tight...

And you just feel it go in a little bit.

It's so hot. So hot.

Just barely in.

Yeah. You want me inside of you so bad.

Tell me you want me inside of you so bad.

Beg me to be inside of you.

Yeah.

Yeah, and you feel my hand on your hips.

I just- I just pull you.

I just pull you on to me,

and your whole body just shakes.

You can just feel how hot and hard...

And deep inside of you I am.

It just starts throbbing inside of you...

And your body is just shaking.

I'm just shuddering inside of you.

You feel me pull slowly outside of you.

You can just feel all

of me touching you going out.

Then you feel me go inside of you really hard

I'm inside of you,

and I'm so hard inside of you.

And I just start going in

and out inside of you.

And it's just so hot.

Each time it seems it's hotter.

It's just getting hotter and hotter,

And you're getting so wet.

Each time you're getting wetter.

You just want meto keep

- Keep going.

And I'm just

- You feel me getting hotter and hotter.

You feel like you're gonna come,

And you feel like I'm gonna come.

You can just feel me.

I'm just gonna come so hard inside of you.

And it's getting hotter and hotter.

Then I start slowing down,

and you feel that I'm just about to come...

Because I'm going so slow.

I'm just- I'm going in and out so slow.

I go out, and then I go in,

and I'm inside of you,

And you feel how hot-

It's just- The heat,

and it's wet.

It's going all up inside your back

and your p*ssy.

It's so hot- Your neck, your shoulders

and your arms and your mouth

You can feel me in your mouth.

I'm coming so hard. My cock is

just throbbing inside of you.

Daylight trippin'

Now I'm missin'

Guess I'm slippin'

Slippin' out

Daylight trippin'

Now I'm missin'

Guess I'm slippin'

Slippin' out

I feel that reality's pulsatin'

Gyratin'

All that matters to me is very small

I'm in orbit

Still standin' on the ground

Guess I'm one

With it all

It's okay.

It's okay.

Oh, god.

Oh.

Oh, god.

Oh, god, I'm gonna come inside you.

I love you.

Yeah, baby, that was great.

You're amazing.

You're so amazing.

What?

You didn't feel anything, did you?

Of course I did.

No, you didn't.

Does it matter?

So it wasn't real?

Richard, we did it. That was real.

No, but you didn't feel anything?

What do you expect?

I mean, you hired me.

Yeah, but a lot of stuff has happened

since then. No. Nothing's happened.

It's all in your head.

What about yesterday?

What did you think,

that I was falling in love with you?

Yeah.

Oh, Richard.

I love you.

You don't even know me.

Well-

Look, I know what you want.

You want- You want to get a girl hot.

You want to think that you're so smart

and so smooth that you could turn any girl

You paid me a lot of money.

I wanted to do it right. I wanted-

You don't know what I want.

Okay? You don't have a

f***in' clue what I want.

You can't-

You can't buy my feelings.

No. No. No. No. No.

You can't pay to make me love you.

But we're people, aren't we?

And people feel things, don't they?

I'm your whore.

Have I ever treated you like a whore?

Have I ever been anything but good to you?

It's not about good or bad.

It's about money.

You have it and I don't.

You pay me to do this, so I did it.

You pay me to enjoy it,

so I enjoyed it.

Well, then, you're just dead,

aren't you?

You wanna f***ing feel something?

Aah! F***.

Ow.

You want real?

I'll show you real.

I been delaying

Gratification

I been ready for

World domination

Ready, set, go baby,

don't you know

I'm ready ready, ready,

ready ready, ready, ready

Ready, set, go like a domino

Kick it over

Hey, Richard, it's Pete.

I know you don't give a f***, but our

I.P.O. went through the roof yesterday.

You're now worth over $20 million,

you lucky a**hole,

And you don't deserve any of it.

Why don't you go f*** yourself,

you bastard.

You don't

need to open your door.

You don't need to leave.

You create a frontier...

To put your mattress with

the cables and the C.P.U.'s,

And you claim a piece of space.

The world breaks

in waves at your fingertips.

You make its choices.

You decide.

And it sings for you when you ask.

Hey. Hey.

It's you.

Yeah.

You look good.

What do you want me to do, baby?

What are the options?

The regular routine.

Sure.

Lap dance, two songs, $60.
