Coltrane was deeply impressed with the work his bodyguards had put in. The restaurant looked amazing, it was bound to attract clients, he was certain of it. But it needed testing before it could open it's door, and he had the perfect companion in mind for the testing.

He grabbed his bicycle and pedaled to the sexy Demonic's HQ, sliding a small note under the door, addressed to the lovely LushyLotus.

May 21sth

Good morning my lady,

It has come to my attention that a new restaurant needs some testing, and going alone at such a romantic place would be a shame. I invite you to join me for a supper you will never forget, this evening, at The Motown Club. I hope to see you there.

Lots of love,

Coltrane

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

He immeditaly headed back to his studio afterwards, he had a couple of things to prepare before tonight.

Lushy had been relaxing at the HQ sipping wine, daydreaming as per usual, when one of her bodyguards strolled in.

"mam, this note was left under the door. Would you like me to check it first?"

smiling, she took the note re reading her name in cursive several times before opening it to uncover its contents, she had a good idea what was written inside, but the excitement none the less was making her giddy.

"No need my dear, I know exactly who this is from. Please have the car ready for me in a couple of hours,  I have a date tonight"

spinning around on the bar stool, Lushy quickly downed the rest of her wine, hopped down and briskly walked away to her room to get ready.

a few hours later...

LushyLotus meets the limo outside she's feeling pretty tall at 5'3 thanks to the 4inch heels. She decided on her black form fitting quarter sleeve low cut dress, paired with black heels, diamond ear rings and necklace to match. opening her silky black clutch she pulled out a soft pink lippy and touched up her lipstick before stepping into the limo.

finally arriving at Coltrane's new place, she steps out of the limo , glass of champagne in hand. she takes a sip and stands there admiring the outside, he always outdid himself.

"I'm impressed, I cant wait to see the inside." Lushy beams as she takes another sip of her champagne before handing it to her bodyguard.

Coltrane had arrived in advance at the restaurant, so his demoiselle couldn't see him arriving on his rusted bicycle, he still wanted to have a bit of dignity. He had picked his favorite outfit, a white suit with black strippes, which made it seem gray. He had a sky blue shirt underneath, and wore a cheeky grey and blue bow tie. His shoes where gray, and a fine line of blue rubber separated the shoe from the sole. 

A huge smile drew on his face as gen watched LushyLotus step out of her limousine. His heartbeat jumped up a couple of notches as he walked towards her. "You look gorgeous, madame Lushy! I'm glad you accepted my invitation!" he introduced, taking her hand and placing a soft kiss on it. "Oh! I brought you this..." he added, reaching for the inside of his jacket. He took out a bottle of wine and handed to the beautiful lady. "Un Merlot, 7 years old... I didn't know what you enjoyed so I kind of went by ear!" he chuckled, hoping she would enjoy the gift.

"So, shall we go inside and see if this restaurant is ready for the wholeness world?"

Lushy beamed at the wine.

"dressed to the 9's and you come with gifts! I feel spoiled already, I love it." She takes the wine and inspects it, A merlot was a very good choice, he knew his wines it seemed or he did his homework, either way Lushy was blushing ear to ear with how she was being treated within the first few minutes of her arrival.

"You didn't have to, but thank you." She leans up and kisses him on the cheek.

"yes lets go inside, I'm excited. I'm still not sure what I am in the mood for, is there a particular specialty dear?" Lushy loops her arm in his and walks with him inside the restaurant.

"The pleasure is mine, m'lady" he answered, bowing down. He was glad she enjoyed the gift, it had been a big load of stress over the last few hours. They walked inside as he continued blabbering. "I believe the menu for today's meal is waiting for us at the table! That's what my bodyguards told me anyways..." he added. 

Once inside, Dexter was waiting for them, dressed up in a fancy, his long blond hair flowing down his back. He led the mm to their table, and Coltrane quickly pulled LushyLotus's chair, smiling warmly at her. The menus where sitting on the table, waiting to be looked at.

Coltrane took a quick glance at the menu and chose quickly. He put the menu down and looked at Lushy. She was incredibly pretty, under the dim glow of the candle, he couldn't stop looking at her. Then, to top it all of, some music came on. It was one of his favorite songs, with beautiful chords and a marvelous melodie. It seemed today was his lucky day, everything that surrounded him was beautiful.

Lushy smiled as she sat down in the pulled out chair.

"such a gentleman, thank you." she looks over the menu and orders. Smiling at Coltrane admiring her she smirks and takes in the atmosphere of his restaurant.

"you have really out done yourself, it's amazing." Dexter comes back to the table and pops a bottle of champagne open and pours 2 glasses for them. Lushy smiles thanking him and takes a sip from her glass. She puts her glass down as the music starts playing.

"Dance with me Coltrane!" Lushy gets up and grabs Coltrane, pulling him up and out of his chair. She wraps her arms around his neck, flashing him a smile and lets him lead them in the dance.

"Isn't it nice to be selfish, and put business aside for a nice evening." she whispers in his ear.

smiling and blushing as Coltrane spins her around and back to him

"Oh stop it, thank you dear." Lushy blushes, and then stops dancing once the song is over.

she hears then  kitchen doors open and see trays of food heading there way.

"Oh now that smells amazing!" smelling the air, Lushy and Coltrane take their seats as his men walk towards them with their food.

Lushy looks at her Shrimp soup beaming with hunger. All of the dancing had given her quite the appetite. She grabs the spoon and takes a small sip.

"mmmmm it's delicious, not too hot either. I'm definently coming back for opening day." smiling she takes a few more spoon fulls before sitting up and continuing to drink her wine.

Flashing her smile that she knows Coltrane adores, she takes him in and enjoys the presence of being with him and at his new place of business he had built and chosen her to try it out on.

"Is it safe to say I believe Detroit has a great future ahead of itself? if not atleast a yummy one, and It's not even the main course!"

Taking a sip of her drink, she was caught off guard by the questions but returned a smile before taking another sip and setting down her drink.

"No, I am not promised to anyone, I guess I have always been somewhat of a free spirit, and you know with the job I'm kept very busy. You try being Demonic's Left Hand Man for a day!" she giggled , and took a few more spoonfulls of the soup when the workers suddenly returned with their main course.

"mmmm, Fettuccini Alfredo with a side salad, this looks yummy!" Grabbing her fork she takes a small bite enjoying the flavors.

"So what about you my darling? Is there a lucky lady in your life?" She takes a sip, finishing off her wine and continues eating.

Lushy stepped out of the cab, waving him on because she planned to take a bit by herself to reflect and remember. She stood before the doors, she had just days ago been thrilled to see but now she absolutely hated them, if she could burn the entire place down she would, it reminded her too much of him.

" Oh Coltrane, why did you have to leave me. you didn't even give me a chance to respond!" Dropping to her knees at the entrance she pulled out a single rose and layed it down.

"I love you too, Coltrane" Lushy sobbed, slowly getting up and wiping her tears, she started walking down the street leaving the memories behind her and trying her hardest to move on.

Bugsy was walking towards The Motown Club, wanting to pay his respects to the man and family who welcomed him with open arms. He walked in and the club was quite, very quite. So quite you could almost hear a feather drop on the floor.

He was still in shock about the recent events that had happened, but was very grateful Coltrane took him in, in his time of need. Being Colt's RHM at the time, he felt like he had done something wrong.. "Why wasn't I killed with him?" He always thinks to himself. But the only thing Bugsy can do and will do now, is keep the legacy of his old friend and The Motown Club going.

Do you hear that sound? That's the sound of The Motown funk that lives through us.

Do you feel that spirit? That's the spirit of a great leader who went down like a great leader.

"They can wrong you, lie about you, or make up stories about the reason for this tragedy. But I know the story friend and I won't forget it. RIP my good friend"

Bugsy lays a box of Montecristo Classic cigars. "You'll understand."

Bugsy walks out of The Motown Club.
