Call me Uber.

Hot Uber Driver

15 minutes goes past, 10 minutes my ass! It's getting so cold, even my goosebumps have goosebumps! "Where is he?" Ash asks, how the fuck am I supposed to know?
"Call him again!" She insists. I pull out my phone to find a text message,

I've got to drive some idiots up into the city, don't worry I'll be there in 20 x

The fuck? Pretty sure I'd booked you first, I ain't telling Ashlee! I throw my phone in my pocket, "he didn't answer" I say as she sighs in disgust and fumbles with her phone.
"I can't get the internet to work" she yells in frustration.
"Don't worry I'm sure he'll be here soon" I know he will and his ass better be here soon because this girl is about to go crazy. Glad I chose to wear this, I'm a thinker!

*20 Minutes Later*

It's bordering on 1am, and I've sobered up. He's actually so late and I kind of wish we had found some reception to book another Uber. I'm tired, and my feet hurt! I'm so fucking trusting! This Brit ain't coming!
"Wanna walk down the end of the alley and see if we can get reception" I ask.
"Yeah, I'm tired and freezing" she responds.
We make our way up the alley and just before getting to the end, I see a set of headlights - a dark car - I swear if this is the Brit, I'm going to kill him!
"Sorry ladies, I tried to get down as soon as I could but the traffic was bad" he says getting out of the car, and begins approaching us.
The alley way is dark but he walks over and stands in the light - I can really see him now. His dark hair, spiked to the side, those piercing brown eyes I had seen in the rear view, he was tall, I could climb him like a tree. I stand there just taking in the sight before me - my 5 foot nothing ass watching him tower over me as he walks right up to Ash and I.
"You ladies ready to go?" He asks, smirking like he knew he could get away with being late.
"FINALLY" Ash shouts as she makes her way to the car.
"She didn't get laid huh?" I start to laugh, he knew this was all her idea and her frustration radiated.
"Not even close" I respond as I make my way to the car.

I get into the car, and sit up behind the driver - Ash is to my left already pouting, the poor baby didn't get her dick tonight - poor deprived little girl!
"Back to where I picked you up from?" He questions as he jumps in the drivers seat.
"Nah, drop me off at home." My sister responds providing him her address. She only lives around the corner, don't know why she's stressed about it.

We arrive at my sisters and she unbuckles her belt, "A different bar tomorrow" she says opening the car door. Before I can say a thing, she exits the car and slams the door - touchy!
"She's not happy" he says.
"Nah she ain't, she'll get over it, her heart will live another day" I say jokingly as we both laugh on the way to the apartment.

He pulls up out the front, "Well have a good night beautiful" he says as he pulls to a complete stop.
"Thanks for driving us, how much do I owe you?" I say as I go to pull out my wallet.
"Nothing, it was a favour" he says. I cock my head to the side and look over at the rear view mirror.
"A favour?" I ask curiously.
He turns, unbuckles his seat belt and turns to face me through the centre of the car.
"Don't be a stranger, if you ever need a lift let me know" he says with a smile on his face.
"Will do" I respond thoroughly confused at this point. He's offering another favour? "Well thank you" I say as I reach for the door handle, "but if I do ever call you for a lift, at least get there on time" I say as I exit the car. He smirked and turned back around to face the windscreen. Not a word was spoken, I close the door and head to the front door to enter my apartment. What a weird night!

I get in my room after having a much needed shower and throw on my pyjamas, it's now 2.30am and I'm wide awake. Thank GOD tomorrow is a Public Holiday and I don't have work, because there was no chance in hell I was going to wake to my alarm. I jump into bed and grab my phone off the night stand where I left it to charge. - 3 new messages. Who the hell is texting me at this time?

I unlock my phone and see a message from Ash, I bet she's having a moan about mr right being mr wrong - and then a number I don't know - 2 messages!

I bet you didn't save my number, but thanks for the laugh, hope your boyfriend wasn't mad about the late night.

Save your number? Who the hell? Maybe it was Uber driver?! Nah, it couldn't be. I grab the card out of my bag to check the number - IT IS?! What does the second message say? I just about drop my phone out of my hand to check the second message, God I'm an idiot!

And so I'm not saved in your phone as Hot Uber Driver, my names Fin.

Oh, Hot Uber driver? He's got a big ego. What makes him think I even thought he was hot? Two can play at that game, I chuckle to myself - and begin to form a response.

Hi Fin, thanks for dropping us off. My Cat was very upset at the tardiness you have presented tonight and he would like a word with you. In regards to your assumption about your name, I wasn't planning on saving it under "Hot Uber Driver" but if it helps you sleep at night I'll let you continue thinking that.

And with that I locked my phone, turned around and fell asleep. Hot Uber Driver, ha! Good fucking night...
