They hadn't BEEN good, though. The last time she'd seen Phil was those few days back in Maryland when she kinda cheated on him with Russ. Well, actually, according to what Phil said after, it wasn't cheating. Afterall, Phil had taken the whole thing well. Very well, in fact, and he had said that she could have whatever fling she wanted with any of the guys if she wanted to. She just had to tell him about it.
So after they had left, Bunny was left with the memories of her punishment. Oh and what a punishment it had been! Damn, she got wet every time she thought about it! She missed them both a lot, but mostly Phil. He was her man. So imagine her surprise when Phil called her and offered her a job on the boat! She wasn't sure if she could handle being up there, but she was definitly going to go. There was no way she'd pass up an opportunity to spend months at a time with the big guy!
So here she was. Phil was busy with the boat and stuff, but he had said either he would pick her up, or one of the guys would. That, or one of the production crew. They weren't doing very much at this stage, so they had all the time in the world.
Bunny got her bags and looked around. She didn't see anyone she recognized yet, so she headed outside the front doors. She waited around for a while, just happy to enjoy the beautiful view, when suddenly she heard her name. She turned in the direction of the voice.
Johnathan Hillstrand was walking towards here, waving. "Hey, Bunny!"
She took a few steps to meet him halfway. Now this was certainly a surprise. She figured Phil had meant one of his own crew would come to get her, not someone from another boat.
"Hi Johnathan, how's it going?" she asked.
"Good, good" he answered. He looked around the parking lot. "So, uh, you just get into Dutch?"
"Yup" Bunny replied. She looked around, too. "I guess you got stuck with the job of coming to get me, huh?"
Johnathan smiled, grabbing her bags. "Yes...yes I did. Come on, I'll show you where I parked"
The two walked across the parking lot stopping at a dark truck. Johnathan threw her bags into the back and they both climbed in. Bunny was surprised to see Andy in the back seat.
"Oh...Hi Andy" she said, startled for a moment. He was very quiet.
"Hi Bunny" he said, strangely. Bunny looked at him, then at Johnathan, who didn't react to his brother's words. Interesting, she thought.
"So....how was your flight?" asked Johnathan.
"Good" said Bunny as she turned to look at him. She noticed that John kept throwing glances into the rear view mirror. But she didn't want to turn around at Andy because that would be very obvious.
"Ummm, Phil's kinda busy right now with the boat and all. You know, repairs..." said Andy. "So, you wanna go to the Elbow Room for a little bit? Get to know the place?"
"Um, sure" said Bunny, wanting to be nice and accept the invitation. Something was teling her to be careful, but she ignored it for the sake of not offending anyone. These were Phil's friends, so she should like them too.
They drove a little ways in silence, and finally pulled up to the Elbow Room. Once inside, John and Andy chose a table in the far corner, next to the back door. Kinda dark and intimate, but oh well.
"So, what do you drink?" asked Andy.
"I'll have a beer" answered Bunny. The beers arrived, and Johnathan moved to grab the ashtray and knocked Bunny's bottle onto her, drenching her shirt.
"Oh damn" he said. "I'm so sorry. Here, let me get you another one. Lisa!!"
Bunny wiped off what she could, but it really needed to be dried. She excused herself for a moment and asked Lisa where the bathroom was. Once there, she used the hand dryer to do what she could with her top, and once it was somewhat better, she headed back out.
John and Andy were engaged in what looked like a serious conversation, but stopped the moment they saw her come back.
"Sorry about that" said John again."I got you another beer" He held it up to her. Bunny took it and took a sip.
"Thanks" she said. Andy began asking her about her trip up from Maryland, how long it took, and all that, and soon they began to share stories over their drinks. But something wasn't right.....
Bunny began to feel very sleepy. She wondered if the time zone changes were starting to catch up with her, but then the room started spinning and she knew something was definitly up. Food poisoning? No, she hadn't eaten anything. She only had this beer..........
It dawned on her right before she passed out. The nail in the coffin was the last words she heard...
"Alright Andy, bring the truck around. She's out. Time to have some fun....."
