Lola and the Rolling Stone

Chapter 37

Lola stood in front of Bruno wearing a pair of high waisted jeans, a crop top and bright make-up on with a pair of sandals. "Is this an okay outfit for my first day back at work?" she asked him seeing him standing in front of her in jeans and a buttoned up flower printed shirt with a pair of sunglasses on. "Wait...did you go out and drink last night after I went to bed?"

"No...." he shrugged.

"You did!" she pushed him taking off his sunglasses.

"I went with him...." Madi said walking into the living room. "Cute outfit."

"Oh thanks..." Lola told Madi. "Where did you go?" she asked sitting down at the kitchen table. "You didn't let him do anything crazy did you?"

"No. Nothing crazy. We drank in the back of the bar....and made out." Madi said raising her eye brow at Bruno.

"No. We didn't do that." he said reaching for Lola's hand. "I got a text from Mark and Madi was still up. So we went out for a bit. We drank too much. My flight back is going to suck."

"It sure is." Lola said pushing Bruno. "I'll get you some medicine. Is your car going to be here soon?"

"Are you trying to kick me out?" he asked giving her puppy dog eyes.

"That's exactly what I'm doing." she responded kissing him lightly. "I just don't want to leave you here by yourself." she glanced at her phone. "I'm going to be late."

"Oh....look who is up..." Lacie wandered into the room in her pajamas.

"Is that implying that we got home late?" Madi asked.

"Yes." Lacie said grabbing Bruno's hair as she went into the fridge. "Damn. I've always wanted to do that and you're too hung over to do anything about it." Lacie smiled pouring some milk in with her cereal.

"I'll get you back, Lac." he smirked reaching for his phone. "My car is here...." he frowned still holding onto Lola's hand. "Come outside with me..." he said sweetly pulling her into his side.

"But how do you hold onto me and carry your bag?" she asked.

"I've got skills." he whispered in her ear as he hoisted his over packed overnight bag over his shoulder.

"Can you fit me in your bag?" she asked laughing as they walked down the stairs.

"Maybe one day you'll just show up at my door..." he said kissing her cheek. "I'll miss you, baby."

"I'll miss you too." she said sadly kissing him again. "Be safe..."

"I will..." he responded squeezing her butt.

"Text me when you get home..." she asked him.

"I will..." he replied kissing her again. "Love you."

"Love you too." she said feeling his lips against hers.

"Have a good day at work." he said opening the door to the car sliding in. She listed her hand up waving good bye while she closed the door. It's like a movie....good bye my love...She said to herself in a sappy tone. I need music for this... I need to write this...

"You've been here since 8 and haven't spoken to anyone...." Penny said to Lola at noon. Lola waved her hand and pointed to her headphones.

"I'm sorry. I just found wht I wanted to write about after he left this morning...." Lola told Penny still typing. "Like I might have a whole week worth of stuff..."

"Okay. I'll leave you alone...." Penny said with a smile. "If it's that good..."

"I promise girl...."

Bruno settled into the first class airplane seat reaching for his headphones and his tablet. Maybe I can be like Lola...I can write on the tablet... He thought to himself seeing the bright white light staring at him. He closed his eyes feeling her lips against his and her soft voice saying I love you. "This better be good..." he said softly to himself as he started typing.
