Sophie woke up in bed. She looked around and stretched. She was careful not to wake Ryan when she got out of bed. She collected her things for a shower.
When Sophie returned from her shower, Ryan had made the bed and left.
Sophie got dressed and did her hair and make-up before joining Mary and the rest of the group downstairs. "Sooophiee. You look great." Mary complimented her. "Thank you."
"Where have you been hiding this little number?" Mary asked. "I heard Mary squeal. Is it time to go?" Jace asked as he entered from the living room. "Yeah. Go get your stuff. Ryan should be down any minute."
"Sweet."
Jace, Tam, Tiffany, and Duke walked out to wait in the lobby for Ryan to join them. "Ryan!" Luke yelled out. Ryan walked out. "Damn." Luke hit Duke in the chest. "Let's go."
They got into a van together and were driven to the winery. It was two to a table, in a dimly lit room, with wine and wine pairings. Peaceful classical music was being played softly in the background.
Each wine came with an informative card that told you about the grapes, the region, the flavor, and its pairings.
Luke and Mary twisted their arms together before taking a swig of wine. "Careful. Ryan might not approve." Kate said. "Kate, don't." Maggie said. "Please, continue. I like my name coming out of your mouth."
Kate glared at Ryan. Ryan teasingly blew her a kiss. Kate jumped at Ryan. "I'm not scared of a woman who asks her girlfriend what wine she pairs well with." Ryan said.
Mary looked at Luke, warning him quietly through her eyes. "That line was corny." Luke said. "Thank you." Ryan said.
Everyone else except for Mary, Kate, and Maggie were holding back laughter.
Ryan sat at the table with Sophie. "You remember when you told me that you have a hard time connecting with people?" Sophie said. "Yes." Ryan answered. "I get it now."
"I hope that's not a bad thing." Ryan replied. "I personally like my women mean." Sophie grinned. "Kinky." Ryan smiled. Sophie pulled Ryan's chair closer to her. They played with each other's hands on the table.
Ryan stared at Sophie. She slowly guided her hand up between Sophie's thigh as she leaned forward to whisper in Sophie's ear. "You are the most beautiful woman I have ever had the pleasure of laying my eyes on. You're absolutely stunning." Ryan leaned back in her seat and took a sip of the wine.
Sophie watched her with a small smile on her face. She looked at the information card of Ryan's wine before feeding her a strawberry.
Ryan called over one of the workers. The worker leaned over, and Ryan quietly requested two bottles of the wine she noticed that Sophie liked and one bottle of wine that she liked. She handed the worker three hundred dollars. "Keep the change."
The worker nodded and went to get Ryan's order. "What was that?" Sophie asked. "It's a surprise." Ryan smiled. "Okay." Sophie replied.
After the tasting, everyone got into the van and went back to the mansion. Everyone retired to their rooms for the night. Ryan couldn't sleep due to the noises Maggie and Kate were making a few doors down. She reached over and grabbed her phone to check the time.
She groaned before tossing the covers off of herself and going to Sophie's room. Sophie felt the bed dip when Ryan got into it. She didn't think much of it because Ryan hadn't attempted to wake her and was generally quiet. It was just sleep.
The sun rose, and the smell of fresh brewed coffee woke the house. Everyone assembled in the kitchen. "We are so close to the big day, and there is still so much to do." Mary said. "The team is coming in to set everything up this afternoon, so we ask that you please stay out of their way." Luke said. "This morning, we're going to relax at the spa. Then we'll come back here to unwind, have some drinks, and play some games before the rehearsal dinner. We'll leave once everyone is ready."
Ryan was sitting by herself in the jacuzzi with her earbuds in, and her eyes closed. The spa had pampered her like a princess because of her affiliation with the parent company. She wasn't one to use her company for perks, but when her name popped up in the system, the spa insisted she be taken care of.
Sophie got into the jacuzzi. Ryan sensed another person and cracked her eyes open. She smiled and took her earbuds out.
"You didn't get enough sleep last night?" Sophie asked. "Between Maggie and Kate making all of that noise." Ryan replied. "You thinking about getting revenge?" Sophie said. "No. I'm not the kind of person who needs to make a show of my talents."
"You're talents?" Sophie teased. "I haven't heard you complaining." Ryan replied. "Where am I supposed to file my complaints?"
Ryan fixed her jaw and smiled at Sophie. Sophie pecked Ryan's lips. For a moment, they just stared at each other. It was starting to feel too inmate, so Ryan brought the conversation back to a more erotic route. "Have you ever faked an orgasm?"
"With you?" Sophie questioned. "Ever?" Ryan clarified. "Yes." Sophie answered. "Can you show me?" Ryan asked. "Right here?" Sophie looked around nervously. Ryan moistened her lips. Sophie leaned over to Ryan ear.
"Ah. Oh yes. Ah. Sss. Unh. Mm." Sophie squeezed Ryan's arm as she moaned in her ear. "Ryan. Oh my God. Just like that. Ryan. Unh." Sophie took a sharp inhale followed by a pause. "Oh my God. Ryan." She exhaled and let Ryan's arm go. "That felt so good."
Sophie backed away from Ryan and shrugged. "Thank you." Ryan gulped. "Are you okay?" Sophie asked. "Yep." Ryan answered. "Ryan?"
