The crown stomps their feet and roars!
"Give it up for two of Vegas' finest!"
"Redneck Woman" by Gretchen Wilson begins to play.With the first notes, two girls dressed alike in 6" heeled cowboy boots, black leather thongs and chaps trimmed with fringe, and plaid western shirts unbuttoned but tied at their cleavage, with a bandana tied around their faces, concealing who they are.Their hair is stuffed inside their cowboy hats.The only difference between the two is the color of the hat.One is white.One is black.I recognize them immediately and glance over at Dirk to see if he does too.His narrowed eyes tell me he recognizes his wife.
Piper and Siri play off each other and engage the crowd.It's obvious they have done this a hundred times together.They dance a cowgirl jig and slap each other's boots.The sass they put into it makes me chuckle, and the girls placed on the tables throughout the club are shouting 'hell yeah' whenever they are supposed to.The whole place is jumping, and everyone is having fun!I glance over again at Dirk, and he is still watching with his laid back nothing gets to my attitude, but his eyes are sharp as a hawk on Piper.
At the end of the song, Siri pulls her bandana down, takes her hat off, shakes her blonde hair out, and hugs Piper, who remains covered.She makes a formal presentation of her hat to Piper.I see real emotion on my Baby Thang and wonder what's going on.She turns and runs off the stage and leaves Piper standing there.
THUMP.THUMP.
Piper turns her back to the crowd and snatches her chaps off.
The crowd roars its approval.
THUMP.THUMP.
She bends over and twerks.
THUMP.THUMP.
She unzips her boots.
THUMP.THUMP.
She flings the tops from her.She's in black stilettos.
THUMP.THUMP.
She turns to face the crowd.
I glance at Dirk.He's trying to remain calm, but he's tense in his seat now.
She rips open her shirt, and I see him flinch, but when he sees she's wearing a black leather bra, he relaxes again, reverting into his default mode.
She turns sideways, cocks her bare ass, touches her finger to her lips, then touches her butt cheek, and the emcee says."Zssst!"
The THUMPS continue as Piper struts down the runway to us.As she comes, she flings Siri's hat into the crowd.
THUMP.THUMP.

The emcee keys the mike."We have a special guest tonight."
Piper waves to the crowd, and they holler 'hell yeah' to her.
"Who is this masked woman?"
She flirts with them before slowly untying her bandana and revealing her face.
"Is that you, Piper?"
She nods and drops the bandana into the crowd.
