Accidental Encounter

2: She knows

I couldn't believe I not only spent the day with Bruno Mars but I actually had sex with him.  I had to call Jen and let her know all the details.  I've only been in LA three days now and I couldn't be happier.  My thoughts were interrupted by my phone ringing.

"Hello" I answered.

"Hey girl guess what?" Diane replied

"What's up?" I said

"I'm coming to LA!  Bossman wanted me to come out and help you with this project.  He said we'd be out there for a year and then come back and implement the program here.  So I hope you have a 2 bedroom apartment because I'll be there in 3 days!" Diane explained.

"Sweet! Girl you have no idea how crazy the last three days have been.   I fucking met Bruno Mars.....and had sex with him!!!" I said.

"Wait hold up....what?! The Bruno Mars.  How the fuck? Girl....what?!?" she said. 

"I will give you all the deets when you get here.  I have another call coming in." I said

"OK girl...bye" she said.

"Hello" I answered.

"Hey beautiful it's Bruno.  Look, don't get mad but my girl is trippin' and I don't know what the hell to do.  She knows I didn't stay at the studio last night. She said she smells your perfume on me.  I can't keep doing this.  Please don't think I'm an asshole.  I really like you but....I...I...I love her....I'll understand if you never talk to me again. I'm okay with that." He explained in what seemed like 1 breath.

I replied, "Bruno I totally understand where you are coming from.  I haven't been here more than 3 days, I didn't know who you were, things just happened so fast and then I find out exactly who you are.  Believe me this is a like whirlwind of crazy.   This is me.  I'm not easy, I don't call random strangers who give me their number on a receipt.  Something about just totally interested me.  I don't know what it is but I can't help it, I can't help but to crave you, crave getting to know you, crave your touch, your scent...I don't know.  Call me crazy."

The call was silent between us for a minute or so then I heard a woman in the background, "who the fuck are you talking to now? Your side bitch? Who is it? "

He answered her, "I'm talking to Dani okay. Getting some stuff squared out for next week."

"Yeah right you liar!  I...hate...liars!  I'm done with this shit, I'm done with you!" She yelled. 

"Baby wait, what is your problem lately?" He questioned.

I sat quietly listening to them argue back and forth.  She was truly upset with him and she had every right, I mean she WAS right with her accusations.   He sounded sincerely saddened and I could tell he loved her but he just didn't seen in love with her.  I think he had forgotten he was on a call as they continued to bicker back and forth.  Eventually I hung up.   

I needed to focus on my job as tomorrow was going to be my first day at this huge hospital.   I'm a small city girl so everything was so intimidating.  I pulled out a bus schedule that Jen had given me and tried to memorize the route I was going to be taking.  I dug out my binder with info I needed and ironed my work clothes.   I must have fallen asleep because I was startled by the knock coming from my apartment door.   I opened the door to find Jen and Bruno standing there.  Jen had a huge smile on her face and Bruno looks so darn fine in his Ray Bans and fedora.  "Umm hey guys whatcha doing...together at my door?" I asked.

"Well I came by to see if you wanted to get get something to eat and this dude was standing here looking like he was scared to knock." Jen said with a grin.
