I woke up with the worse headache ever. I rolled over and looked at my clock it read eleven thirty. I rolled my eyes and put my head back under the pillow. I thought I would've been able to go back to sleep but then my phone and doorbell started ringing at the same time. I groaned and searched for my phone which was on the other side of me. I didn't even look at the caller id and placed it to my ear.
"Hello." I said.
"Wake up sleepy head.' shelly sung through the phone. I groaned. "Come on Ryan wake up...I got Coffee and Donuts." she sold me. I crawled myself out the bed and walked downstairs of my three bedroom brown stone apartment. I opened the door to a smiling shelly then walked into my half bathroom that was located next to the front door. After I released myself, I joined shelly in my spacious stainless steal kitchen. I think my kitchen is my favorite room in the house. I sat at the island and grabbed the coffee an a glazed donut. "So I been thinking."
"About?" I said biting into my donut.
"About your little dilemma."
"What Dilemma?" I said. My head was pounding.
"You know the wicked, wicked bitches wedding." I had totally forgot all about that damn wedding and she just reminded me. "I kind of did something to help you out." I placed my coffee down and stared at Shelly.
"What did you do Shelly?" I was scared of what she was going to tell me.
"I placed an ad online for you a date." I couldn't believe she just said that. I was in shock I didn't know what to say.
"Oh my goodness Shelly ."
"What ?"
"You didn't do that , please tell me you didn't."
"Ryan calm down its safe girl and I made it very boring not like you was an escort."
"Take it down." I said. getting up from my chair and walked over to the fridge. i don't know what i was looking for just need to keep my hands busy before they became wrapped around Shelly's neck.
"Listen its harmless and it already has dudes hitting you up to meet."
"I am not doing it."
"Yes the hell you are, damn it Ryan that engagement party is next week and you don't have anybody to take you."
"I will find someone."
"Like who?, Jamal?"
"Maybe, whats wrong with Jamal?" I said Jamal was a friend of the both of us. More me than Shelly them two actually had a little thing going on, but didn't work out. Shelly said that he was to cocky, and he was a man hoe. But i think they still be fucking around on the low.
"That's not going to work and you know it." Shelly said. she reached inside her bag and pulled out her laptop. "Look i want you to just look at the site yourself." she said. I crossed my arms over her chest and turned my head. she got up and walked over to me placing her hands on my folded arms. "Please Ryan i swear I didn't put anything on there that your not going to like." i turned and looked at my best friend, i knew she means well but I didn't know who was on there looking to help me out. i just felt dirty but thought i would look at the site just to shut Shelly up.
"Ok." I rolled my eyes walked over to the laptop.
.......................................................................
I have been on the site looking at different men trying to figure out who will be the best candidate. I didn't find anybody I liked but didn't let that stop me from answering questions and emails. I was in my Office when their was a knock at the door. I looked up just in time for Shelly to poke her head inside, she had the most biggest smile on her face.
