It didn't take very long for John and I to get situated in our new hotel room. We paid for five days, but we also made sure to tell the lady at the front desk that we may find a permanent place sooner (or later) than that, so she said we would pay for three days for sure, and the rest after that.

We didn't even bother unpacking or anything, and we went straight to bed, cuddled together like we usually do every night.

What woke us up, however, was the annoying sound of one of our phones going off.

"Johhhhhnnnnnnnn......" I groaned, burying my face in his side but trying to get him up.

"Scaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrr....." He groaned back, shifting so he could bury his face in my hair.

"Nooooooooo...." I responded, pulling a pillow over our heads.

"What if it's impooooooortaaaaaaannnnnnttttt?" He replied, being the first to make a complete sentence.

"We'll call back laaaaattteeeerrrrrrrr!" I countered, and he groaned, but stood up, going to where our phones were hanging out on the table near the hall to the door.

"It's Bruce.... Hello?" He answered, and I almost giggled at how confused and sleepy he sounded.

"Hey! Yeah, we slept in a bit!" He laughed a little, running his hand through his hair.

"We're both pretty good, how are you?" He asked, it was really weird to only hear half of the conversation, so I got up and moved so I was next to John. I only just missed Bruce's response, but I heard John's reply.

"Sure! When?" He asked, being vague on purpose so I glared at him.

"How long would it take you guys to get over here?" Bruce asked, and John looked around the room.

"Maybe about an hour? Two if princess over here tries to clean the whole place up." John said. and I exclaimed out.


"Hey! Rude!"


I could hear Bruce laughing, so I stuck my tongue out at the phone. "Hey Scarlett! Alright, I'll be ready for you in an hour then?" He asked.


"Sounds good to me! What about you, Scar? An hour enough time for you?" John said, and I nodded. "Alright, so see you in an hour then!"


"Alright, bye for now!" Bruce said, then he hung up with John following right after.


"Aren't you so glad we met him?" I asked, bouncing around in my spot. John put his hands on my shoulders, keeping me still.


"I am, actually. Thanks for starting the conversation that helped us meet him!" He said, and I smiled at him.


"You're welcome! Can I have the shower first?" I asked, looking at him pleadingly. He smirked.


"How about we save time and water and shower together?" He asked, and I blushed but happily nodded.

An hour later we were sitting in a coffee shop waiting for Bruce. I was trying to make my necklaces cover up the hickies that the makeup and shirt refused to cover, but I doubt that Bruce would mind or judge anyway.
