Chapter 40

Bri stepped from her bedroom just as Geena exited hers and grinned. "Well howdy stranger!" She grinned as she studied the outfit Geena had put on for the concert, "Dressing to kil..." her voice trailed off as the door slid open revealing a giggling Carly and a curly headed keyboardist turning away.”Well lookie what the pianist drug in. CARLLLLY!"

Carly stepped into the room, a big smile on her face, “howdy girls!”

Bri looked at Geena, who looked back and both screamed, "DEETS girlfriend!"

Carly just giggled as she made her way to the couch. “Well, not much to tell, but sounds like he wants to see more of me. He even called me "his woman."

Geena plopped down on couch "Ooooooooooh way to go girlfriend."

Bri's brow winged northward, "More than he saw in that bikini I know!"

She knitted her brows...”are we getting too close too fast?” She glanced at both friends, worry shining in her eyes.

Bri yawned slightly, her eyes widening, "Have ya screwed him yet?"

“I'm just scared that I fall for him and he'll move on... just like the last time and to answer you Bri, NO!!!! I'm just scared that I’m not exciting enough, “she whispered again

"Carly you know Lemma better than we do. Now do you honestly think he would do that?" Geena asked as she watched her shy friend fidget right where she sat.

Bri flopped down beside Geena, "Well hell, you were a good girl? I can’t lay claim to a halo today. Not unless its rusted crooked and screwed off the hinges. Jesus, for every time I said he was seductive and alluring, just multiply it by ten. The man can fuckin’ talk your panties off."

Carly’s blush arose along with her smile as she settled herself on the edge of the sofa. “Good for you and I really mean it Bri you deserve some happiness after the fiasco of Jared.”

Bri glanced at Geena and grimaced, "Yeah but I paid for it royally too, fuckin' karma."

Carly raised her eyebrows at her in a silent question. What the hell does that one mean I wonder?

She watched Carly a moment then realized how it sounded. "Oh hell no, Rich was wonderful. Shit he was beyond wonderful. He’s a beautiful man, and God there are no words to describe how wonderful a lover, and so sweet when....."

Geena said "Have to admit you are a stronger woman than we are. Let me say girls, if we get good songs tonight I am gonna be paying for it later."

She nudged Geena with her elbow, “Complaining?"

"No but I think my big mouth got me into trouble this time though."

“Ohhhhh! What did you do now?” Carly leaned back and grinned, knowing Geena she could have said or did just about anything.

Geena paused looked at Bri then Carly "Well I said I would give a blow job if we heard Roulette."

Carly snorted as her hand waved, “Oh Don't worry, Jon would never play such an oldie!”

"I dunno he had this evil look in his eye when he left me today," Geena laughed. ”Don't even wanna know what else payback he is talking about. He wanted me to wear this -- no panties or bra. Demanding his royal hotness is."

Bri shook her head then started to laugh. "He ain't his royal highness for nothing."

Carly chimed in her agreement. “Yeah, HRH remember!”

Bri smiled at Carly as she went back over her first day in paradise. "Ya know girl, it was all good, even the bad parts. Someone found my number, yet again, and called me today..."

“Please tell me it wasn't that asshole of an ex?” Carly’s eyes widened at the sudden paleness of Bri’s skin. Even her pulse was jumping at that one statement.

She nodded, "Oh yeah, it was him. Scared me to death for a few, but then Richie took the phone. God, Carly, you should of seen it. He told Jared to back off, that he was busy screwing his woman into the mattress. HE THREATENED him with CEMENT shoes! I had to shut the phone before Richie really blasted off... Golly never knew he could get mad like that."

“Well he is from Jersey!” she laughed.

She smiled slightly, "That he is. If David is as wonderful as Rich, hell if Jon is even half that. We were some lucky ladies the day they found the board."

Geena arched an eyebrow."Hey now! He is a good guy too; he's just not as overtly obvious as the other two. He just needs to find it again," she sighed.

"Well if anyone can drag him out of that rut he's in it will be you G."

"I dunno he is a tough nut to crack I think."

A dreamy look came over Carly's face as she remembered her day with David.

Bri grinned and watched as Carly got lost in Jokeritis. "He's that sweet huh?"

She nodded emphatically, “David is so wonderful... we had fun at the beach this morning...and then he took me into a private cabana for a shower...and then at the venue he showed me around and I got to meet Tico!”

Bri couldn't help the grin at the blush on her friends face. "He misbehaved in the shower didn't he?"

“Well, not really...he does have wonderful hands...but he somehow knows not to push me to hard.”

"He's a smart man Carly, knows when something's worth waiting for."

Carly just blushed and looked down at her hands in her lap... “He is JUST WONDERFUL! I hope I don't do something stupid to mess this up.”

She leaned in, her hand reaching to pat Carly's lightly. "Honey you don't have it in you to mess up stuff that bad. You're just too sweet, and the perfect foil for a crazy man likes David. You'll see."

Geena grew quiet she was truly happy for her friends they both had decent men whom seemed to care for them already but part of her wished Jon was like that too hell but she knew he wasn't . She should be happy with the time she got most girls dreamt of the time she got with him.

She glanced at Geena and frowned. "Don't go getting all sad, he might be a hard nut to crack, but you got it in you to do it G. You wait; you’ll see that I'm right."

"Yea I suppose you're right besides I should just be lucky to be able to spend any time with him. We could have been shoved off on to Matt or Obie or Rew," Geena snorted

She couldn't repress the shiver. "Glad they didn't they certainly aren’t Richie."

She glanced over at Geena and before they both knew it they were laughing hysterically at the idea of any of those three men trying to corral them.
