One Wild Night

After Tom left Lucy's apartment, she went on to finish with the arrangement and eat some of the apple peach cobbler Tom had brought her, and just as she got ready to get into the bathroom her phone started ringing. She paused to pick it up when she noticed it was a call from Sonia.

"I was going to call you after having my bath." She said Immediately she received the call.

"Really? That was fast. You've seen the news already?" Sonia asked excitedly as she kept her arms intertwined with Bryan's who couldn't move away since people were watching.

"What news?" Lucy asked in confusion.

"I see you haven't. Well, why were you going to call me then?" Sonia asked curiously since she knew once she told Lucy about the engagement, Lucy might not say what she wanted to say anymore.

"What's on the news?" Lucy asked, equally serious.

"What's on the news isn't running. I'll tell you about it once you tell me why you were going to call, so hurry." Sonia said making Lucy sigh.

"Well, I don't know how to say this, or what to make of it, but remember my one night stand?"

"Tom?"

"Yeah. He happens to be my next door neighbor." Lucy said making Sonia shriek excitedly, while Bryan looked at her like she had lost her mind.

"This can't be mere coincidence! It's fate! Oh My God! It's just like a perfect romance story. I should probably write something like this for my next story." Sonia said dreamily.

"I told him I want what happened last night to remain in the past, and so far he has acted gentlemanly. He even helped me around the house. Do you think it's going to be okay being next door neighbors with someone I've slept with? Should I move?" Lucy asked making Sonia roll her eyes..

"Well, lucky you now you don't have to go to those sex stores anymore. You could just get him to be your neighbor with benefit, and he can just smash your Honeypot whenever you feel like it." Sonia said with a giggle making Bryan wonder what sort of lunatic she was. Neighbor with benefits!? Was there even a relationship like that?

"But that is a kind of commitment too. What if I get tired of him and no longer want to have sex with him? It would make things awkward." Lucy said thoughtfully.

"You're thinking too far ahead Lu. Just enjoy yourself and live in the moment. You're not marrying him or dating him. Spell it out and let him know he's free to have other girlfriends as you are also free to have other boyfriends. It's going to be a kind of uncommitted commitment." Sonia said reasonably.

"Does that even make sense? Uncommitted commitment?" Lucy asked with a giggle.

"Well, it does if you think about it. Don't let this opportunity pass you bye. Imagine watching a movie or reading a book and getting horny as fuck. You could just sneak into his apartment and have him pleasure you." Sonia said with a grin.

"But hold on, what about the mansion you woke up in? If he's your neighbor, does that mean he isn't the owner of the mansion?" Sonia asked curiously.

"Yeah. He's just a handyman and soon to be company driver." Lucy said making Sonia giggle.

"Well, I'm sure he's gonna be handy to you too. He's gonna be your personal handyman if you know what I mean." Sonia said suggestively making Lucy giggle while Bryan sighed wearily as he led her to his suite finally . Somehow he felt sorry in advance for the guy being discussed.

"Is that all you ever think about!? Anyway, enough about me. Why did you call? You didn't go out anymore?"

"Yeah, about that, so in other news, your best friend just got engaged!" Sonia announced.

"Engaged? You? By whom? You've had more than ten boyfriends in the space of two months, so how come you're getting engaged?" Lucy asked making Sonia glad the phone wasn't on loudspeaker.

"Well, that's why I was asking if you've seen the news. Bryan Hanks engaged me." Lucy said as Bryan detached his arm from her and opened the door to the suite.

"That's so not true!" Lucy said in disbelief.

"Why not check the internet?" Sonia suggested making Lucy disconnect the call immediately.

Bryan walked into his bedroom while Sonia looked around the suite while waiting for Lucy to return her call. Lucy called back three minutes later after confirming the news, "I can't believe this! How? What happened?"

Sonia giggled as she told Lucy exactly what had happened between herself and Bryan.

"You should let the poor guy off the hook." Lucy said with a giggle since she knew how crazy her friend could be.

"Sure. Not just yet." Sonia assured her.

"So I'm going to be your imaginary maid of honor I suppose?" Lucy asked.

"Who else but you? Of course you're going to be my maid of honor." Sonia said, and then winked at Bryan who quickly looked away from her, "My fiance needs my attention now, let's talk later. Love you Lu." Sonia said before hanging up.

After Sonia dropped the call, she walked over to where Bryan was seated and joined him, "So when do I get to meet your family?"

"Miss Smith..."

"Call me Sonia. There is no need for the formalities between us Bryan darling." Sonia said as she patted his back.

"Can you please stop?" He asked in a frustrated tone.

"No I can't." Sonia said, and then turned to pick up her phone when it started ringing again.

This time around it was a call from an unknown reporter. How the reporter got her number was beyond her, "Yes! Of course we have been seeing each other secretly for sometime now! I was just sitting there waiting for Mr Conner, my editor, and he walks up to me and asks me to marry him. Yes! It was like the most romantic thing ever! My Bryan is so romantic" Sonia said with a giggle, while Bryan watched her speechlessly as he massaged his temple.. He had surely outdone himself this time.
