Pete managed to raise a very brief ripple, definitely not a smile but maybe just a smirk. My night didn't improve either, I had so much alcohol in my system that my brain wouldn't shut off so at 4.30am I was sat bolt upright in bed after another horrific nightmare. I was being chased around my apartment by a giant set of balls with a very flaccid shrivelled dick attached. They had a badge pinned on them that said "Used to belong to Garrett".
I really needed to remember to drink lots of water before I went to bed because I couldn't cope with these vivid images keeping me awake. I settled back down with my iPad and read for an hour or two before dozing off again just before I was rudely awoken by my phone. Looking at the clock it was 10.00 am I presumed the only person who would ring this early on a Sunday was Rosalie.
"What the fuck do you want this early?" Was my ladylike greeting
"Oh sorry Izzy, I thought you would be up and about by now, I forget that not everyone has to be up early for training"
"How did you get my number? I don't remember giving it to you last night" I asked trying to wake myself up.
"I couldn't concentrate this morning so I called and asked Emmett for your number, I told him I forgot to get it last night. I also need to fill you in on what I told him happened last night because we need to make sure our stories are straight" he explained.
I lay back down on my pillows and rubbed my eyes. How the fuck did I get wrapped up in all this deception? All I wanted was to have one night of uncomplicated, orgasmic, fuck hot sex and now I was involved in a complete stranger's very intimate personal life. In addition to that he was asking me to lie to one of my oldest friends because how could I tell Rosalie the truth if she was with Emmett?
"Look I'm not even awake yet, let me have a shower, a coffee or two and put on some clothes and I'll call you back, I need to be alert to hear all this."
I promised to call him back so after dragging myself out of bed I found myself sitting on my couch staring at my phone willing myself to dial his number.
Just as I had finally worked myself up to do it, my phone rang making me scream out loud. I fumbled as I picked it up and tried to answer before it rang off, I could see it was Rosalie and that made me hesitate just for a second. Finally I answered on the last ring before it went to voicemail and she didn't even give me a chance to say hello.
"So girlie is your vag so sore you can't sit down or are you still at it and I'm interrupting?"
I was too confused to answer, what the hell was I supposed to say? Sorry Rosie but he was a raving queen who takes it up the arse or yes my bed saw so much action my sheets melted. In the end I just burst into tears…..
I know I'm not a touchy feely person, but I'm not made of stone either. Everyone has a safety valve and limit, somehow after everything last night I had obviously reached mine!
"Bella what the fuck! What happened? Did he hurt you? I'll fucking kill him and Emmett if he has hurt you in any way, Bella talk to me, what has happened, are you alright? Bella, Bella..."
The next thing Rosalie is in front of me, she has her own key for emergencies, and for when I lock myself out, this is really helpful as she is only five minutes away, and she is just holding me, stroking my hair and trying to calm me.
"Bella do we need to take you to the hospital, are you hurt, did he…?"
This seemed to seep in to my brain and it kick started it, I must have needed a reboot or something. I managed to stop the tears and turning to her reached for the tissues she had in her hand. After a good nose blow and mopping up of the stray tears and snot I was able to calm down. While I went to wash my face she made us a coffee and when I made my way back to the couch she handed me a fresh cup and a couple of aspirin. I took them and I tried to put things in order so I could tell her about my night, Garrett be damned, Rosalie was my oldest friend and I wasn't going to lie to her.
"'I'm sorry for frightening you Rosalie, I had a terrible night's sleep, far too much alcohol, and I saw and did things last night that you will just not believe I was capable of getting involved with."
She gave me a hug and just held me, "Right start at the beginning and tell me what that prick did, then we can decide on his punishment" she said.
I started to tell her about the club he'd taken me to, as ever Rosalie had heard of it but hadn't been, so she quizzed me on what it was like. Eventually I returned to the story and explained about Renee and how Garrett had been so enamoured with him/ her and that he had ditched me. I was just about to explain that she was indeed a he and about my mystery man when she jumped up and took out her phone.
"Some fucking friend you have, he took Bella to a sex club and then promptly went off and fucked someone else, I'm going to rip his dick off when I see him next time and you, well your punishment is to be decided, we had one shot at getting Bella laid properly and I let you talk me into it being someone I couldn't check out, I trusted you" she shouted and then she hung up.
"I take it that was Emmett?" I asked and she nodded. She didn't realise it but she had just helped Garrett enormously. Once the conversation got around the dressing room his reputation would be at an all-time high, he was Mr Sex (with the Ladies) again.
"Well you should have let me finish before you blew up at him, you only have half of the story" I said as she slumped back down on the couch.
"I only gave you the outline, I need to fill you in on the actual events, but before I do I need to know how important Emmett is to you"
She looked at me warily and for once maybe a little uncertainly, I knew then she had started to fall for him. Wow, that was a turn up for the books, our Rosalie had finally fallen for someone.
"Well I'll admit to you that I like him, a bit, well more than a bit, probably….yes more than a bit, but that's all I'm admitting to, so whatever the prick and his team mate have done you had better tell me know before …" she ranted and I cut her off
"Well when I said that Garrett was into Renee what I didn't tell you was that it was actually Renee that was in Garrett. By that I mean Renee was actually a he, a very beautiful he granted, but a he all the same, with a full set of working male bits and he was very definitely in Garrett if you get my meaning. You see Garrett is 100% gay and all the talk in the changing room is just that, talk, he is absolutely scared shitless that it will come out. I haven't spoken to him properly yet but I'm presuming that he was going to take me there to act as cover and if I was in to it, he would have been able to slip off and see what was on offer."
Again Rosalie reacted, she was up storming round the apartment threatening to rip parts of Emmett and Garrett off and use them for all manner of things. Eventually when she had worked all the anger out she came and sat back down.
"I'm so sorry sweetheart, we thought we were helping you, we just wanted you to have a good night. I trusted Emmett's word when I should have followed my instincts and made sure that we had references and even a personal recommendation, from a woman."
I couldn't help but laugh, she was taking this so seriously when really it was just a blind date that didn't pan out.
"Now I promised Garrett that I wouldn't tell Emmett. I know I shouldn't have but to be honest I just wanted to get away last night and try and get my head straight, so I need to ask you to not say anything for the time being. In fact you played a blinder by telling Emmett that Garrett went with another woman, because you've just strengthened his reputation."
It took me a good ten minutes, and in the end some strong pleading, to get Rosalie to understand why I was going to help Garrett out. All she could see was that I'd been let down but I didn't see it quite like that. The more I talked to her I realised I felt quite sorry for Garrett because whilst my problem was unfortunate it wasn't messing with my life, Garrett on the other hand was living a complete lie and I maybe I could try and ease that a little for him.
"Anyway I haven't told you the best bit about my night yet" I needed to move the conversation on as Rosalie was still threatening to take out a full page ad in the local paper exposing Emmett and Garrett as secret lovers. While it would have been funny to see Emmett's face I know Garrett wouldn't have coped with that at all.
"There was a good bit?" she questioned.
"There was"
"Well don't keep me in suspense"
"Well I gave someone a blowjob and I really enjoyed it. It was just how I've always imagined it should be, not like I've put up with before" I was hoping she would let that go and it would be enough information but who was I kidding, I knew I'd just opened the floodgates.
"Who,when,where,why….who, spill now" was her ….instruction, yes it was definitely not a question more of an order.
"I can't really answer a lot of that,
Who…I don't know,
When … last night at the club
Where…. In a pitch black room
Why… because I needed to feel something, anything, because I could, because he felt incredible under my fingers, because he kissed my knuckles so gently… I don't know."
She was looking at me in that way, the way she looks when I've just told her something she finds odd or strange, like when I want to wear flats and jeans, but she wants me to wear next to nothing and heels that are death traps.
"So Bella, Let me get this straight. Whilst Garrett was off getting his ass filled, you went into a pitch black room, tapped a stranger on the shoulder and he kissed your hand sweetly, so you swallowed his dick?"
I thought about it, yep she had the basic gist really.
"Yep and by the way we were both naked"
"Fuck! Is it too early for a drink?" she asked as she flopped back against the sofa.
"I'll make another coffee, because I have to call Garrett back shortly and talk to him, he will wonder what has happened to me but before I can do that you have to decide what you are going to tell Emmett".
The rest of the morning was taken up with discussion and negotiation, me telling here every detail of what had happened, and then negotiating to try and find a solution so she didn't have to lie too much to Emmett, but we could keep Garrett's secret.
In the end the only solution we could come up with was that I would have to become Garrett's 'girlfriend' I could be his beard/front for his public image and at the club and he would be my date when I needed one. We could both still date freely as long as we were discreet. That would be quite easy for me, he was going to have to keep his 'real life' very hidden just like he seemed to have been doing all along and I just hoped that Renee was ready for that, because she didn't really scream discreet to me at all.
