Benny:
What room are you in?
Me:
Who’s asking?
Benny:
Me . . . obviously.
Me:
Room 707. Why?
Benny:
We’re not on the same floor.
Me:
I think that was intentional.
Benny:
Yeah, they never have management on the same floor as theplayers.
Me:
Right . . . well, as riveting as this conversation is, there’s a bath calling my name.
Benny:
The guys want to meet my fiancée.
They are insistent they get to meet you before their women get their hands on you.
I stare at his text for so long that the text bubbles appear and disappear five times before a third text from him comes through and makes me freeze.
Benny:
I’ll be up to get you in five. Put some clothes on and join us.
Or don’t, and I’ll have an excuse to help resurrect those memories you seem to have forgotten from years ago. Just kidding . . . we’ve got rules to follow ;)
Was that another attempt at Bennett flirting?
Me:
When you say join us?
Benny:
I mean join me and a few of the guys for drinks at the hotel bar. You’ve got four minutes, Little Red.
