Not mine, just having fun (:
I did this story as a challenge for another group sometime back. Just thought it'd be fun to post!
Married? Who's Getting Married?
I was just getting to the good part of my dream when my cell went off.
I opened my eyes to find it was still pitch black out, no sun penetrating the room. It was just past 3:00 am. Question was, who the hell would be calling me this early in the morning! Anyone who knows me understands not to call me before 10 am (unless of course there was a dire emergency).
After having thought that, I snatched my phone off the night stand and answered swiftly.
"Hello!"
"Mornin' there white girl…I didn't wake ya did I?" I heard Lula's voice yell over the phone.
I had to check the clock to make sure it really was this early in the morning.
It was, and I figured something must be up for Lula to be…well, alive at this hour.
"Lula? What the hell is going on? Do you know what time it is?" I asked.
"Well see here, I find that just rude! I don't care what time of the day it is, or what is going on, even if it is something as important as me getting married, it's just not the polite way of answerin' the phone! What if this was actually your mother calling! Do you speak to her with that mouth! Well I would hope not, she gave life to you…"
"LULA!" I interrupted her, mid-rant. She abruptly stopped and I continued. "Look it's barley four-o'clock in the morning I think you could have…" and then it hit me. "Wait, did you say…"I paused trying to put my thoughts together. It's hard thinking this early in the morning. "Married? Who's getting married?" I asked feeling really confused. I mean this was Lula were talking here. Lula, the ex-prostitute…marriage isn't something I expected to be in her cards.
"Me, I'm getting married! Who woulda thought? I mean not that it couldn't happen; I just thought I'd have to be black-mailed into it first. That's the reason I'm callin ya, I need a tinny tiny favor." Lula said.
Oh boy
"Let's here it" I said in a tedious voice.
"Well Tank here and I are eloping and we both need witnesses and I chose you as mine and Tank wants Ranger as his. So I was sorta wondering if you could convince batman to come down to the chapel with you. And I promise it's really Tank and me who's getting married, were not tryin to fix you guys up…it is kinda ironic though, ain't it?" Lula finished. I stared into the phone in disbelief before I put my ear back to the speaker.
"You want me to what?!" I asked panicked. This was so unreal.
"I want you to be my bridesmaid! Oh, and you need to bring Ranger so he can be the best man to Tank. Tanks' to withdrawn to call Ranger himself, and Ranger might not even come. But with you, we're hoping you could get the man to come…seeing how he never says no to you"
I reluctantly agreed and hung up with Lula.
I had 30 minuets to dress, shower, and shave. Lula told me what dress she wanted me to wear and as I pulled it out of my closet to put on, I felt an eye twitch start to develop.
The dress barley covered my ass and I bought it for the purpose of using it as bait for a distraction job. (Or for the evenings I wanted to get laid). I heaved a heavy sigh and slipped it on anyway. This was Lula's wedding, and who was I to let her down.
Next on my list was to convince Ranger.
I figured I better do it over the phone, seeing how one look at me in this dress would create all sorts of problems and we never would make it to the chapel.
So I took a deep breathe and dialed him up. After three rings he picked up.
"Please tell me you're cuffed to your shower rod and you need my assistance" Ranger answered. I wasn't sure if I was shocked over what he said or over the fact that's the most I've ever heard him say at once over the phone.
I wiped the drool off my chin and responded to him.
"Yeah yeah, joke it up. But actually I'm calling for a different kind late night favor."
"Oh really?" he replied curiously.
"Yeah, but I'm sure it's not nearly as exciting as your hoping. But it does involve me in a very short dress" I said, hoping that would convince him enough.
"Name it, I'll be there" he answered.
Well here goes nothing!
"Well-Lula-and-Tank-are-getting-married-and-they-need-witnesses-and-they-choose-us." I said as quickly as I could.
I let out the breath of air I was holding and waited for his response. After a few moments of hearing nothing I assumed he either hung up or was trying to process what I just said.
"Uh, Ranger? You there?" I asked.
Still nothing.
"He-lloooo" I called into the phone.
"Babe…have you been drinking?" Ranger finally said.
"You're such an ass Ranger! Why would I make something like that up?"
"I was hoping you had a few too many glasses of wine and were calling me up for a sleepover" he replied, his voice thick with desire Shivers of lustful need traveled up my spine as I sucked in an inhale of breath. Ranger gave a teasing chuckle over the phone "Perhaps a raincheck?"
Feeling the yearning heat head south, I had to keep myself from panting in hysterias over the phone. I quickly changed the topic back to the wedding and explained where he needed to be and told him when to be there.
"So you'll go right?" I asked.
"Babe" was all he said and hung up.
I took that as a yes…
Not sure if I'm going to continue this one, I think it's just a one shot, but let me know what you think anyway!
