This is for you, Cgarcia555!
Eliot, 11:41 p.m.
Eliot knocked on Bonnie's bedroom door and waited for her to invite him in. When his knock wasn't answered, he opened the door to see the blonde laying on her back and staring at the ceiling. Eliot walked over to the bed and sat beside her. Mimicking her, the hitter laid on his back and stared at the ceiling. Looking at the ceiling, he never noticed the very detailed fleur designs surrounding the gold chandelier above the bed. Was it like this in every room?
"How long do you think it took the person to draw those designs on the ceiling?", Bonnie asked, breaking the hitter out of his own thoughts
"I dunno. But whoever did was very meticulous about his work. They're all…perfectly symmetric.", the hitter responded.
"Yeah but how the hell did they get them to be so…perfect?"
"You'll be surprise what people can do with a little money and motivation.", making Bonnie chuckled
SILENCE
Bonnie and Eliot sat like that for what seemed like forever. Remembering what he came to talk to her about, Eliot broke the silence.
"So…we slept together last night. Or this morning…I…um…", the hitter said, attempting to start a conversation
"That seems to be the story.", Bonnie responded
"Way to start a conversation, Mick", the hitter thought he heard someone say but saw no one.
"Are you okay?", he asked Bonnie
"I'm fine I just can't believe that I slept with you.", she responded
"Damn, that was a low blow to my ego.", Eliot said with a soft chuckle.
"No offense to you or anything but the urban cowboy vibes just doesn't do it for me."
"Ouch…"
"Sorry."
They sat in silence for a while before Bonnie spoke again, "So now what?"
"I say we act like it never happened and just go back to living our separate lives. I mean, that's usually what I do", Eliot responded while sitting up.
"Seems like you're the one-night stand master.", she responded while sitting up
Eliot laughed. She may be exaggerating a bit but he has had quite of few one night stands.
"So that's it huh? We just act like nothing happened.", said Bonnie
"Pretty much", Eliot replied.
"Well that sucks."
"That ain't the only that sucking around here."
"What?"
"I didn't say anything."
"Oh…well…I can't say I'm surprised that we did it.", said Bonnie
"Really?", replied the hitter
"Yeah. I knew you had a thing for me when you kissed me at the hotel in New York."
Laughing the hitter says, "Kissed you?" Don't flatter yourself, sweetie. We agreed that you kissed me first.
"Um correction: we didn't agree on anything. Fact is YOU kissed me and YOU have had the hots for me ever since.", the blonde replied with a slight giggle."
"Okay let's say that I kissed you first, I recall a month before when a certain blonde called me to her room and just so you could parade around damn near naked all in my face!"
Bonnie grasped dramatically, "LIAR!", Eliot laughed as she continued, "You walked in while I was getting dress-
"You were sitting at the vanity putting on makeup."
"-I WAS GETTING DRESS...and you were staring at me the entire time. Besides, I had to call you to my room…"
"Yeah right."
"She lying…."
"Seriously! I had to tell you where I wanted to go without Matt knowing. How else was I going to see Franny?"
That reminded him of that day and everything that transpired after that: meeting Ms. Francine, finding out that Taylor's alter ego was Chloe, almost being shot, Lenny and Jake actually getting shot later that day, New York, and now here he was.
"Wow…", the hitter exclaimed, "can you believe that so much has happened in just two months?"
"I can believe that more than me actually slept with you.", Bonnie replied.
"Hey, I'm not that bad. It could have been worse."
"And what can possibly be as bad as sleeping with you, Mr. Kane?"
"Sleeping with Lenny!"
That comment made Bonnie jump off the bed, "LENNY? Oh God no! I would have to be drunk AND high just to think about him in that way! And even then, my common sense would dismiss any urges!"
"Damn man, you don't have a chance in heaven or hell…"
"Fuck you, man…"
"Okay, I know I'm NOT crazy. You hear that too, right?", asked Bonnie
Eliot walked over to the closed door and yanked it open. Him and Bonnie watched as Jake and Lenny fell off the door and unto the bedroom floor.
"Were you stopping to say goodnight boys?", asked the sarcastic Eliot.
"Aren't you two a little too old to be eavesdropping?", asked the very irritated Bonnie.
"First, we weren't…eavesdropping", Lenny started as he straightened his self out, "Second, how DARE you say you wouldn't be lay with the American Lover, Leonard Benjamin Jeffery. You can't tell me…that the chocolate drop that you see in front of you don't cause temptation…" Bonnie look at him and rolled her eyes.
It's fine you wouldn't be able to handle it…And third, taken that I was a topic in the conversation, it was just as much as my conversation as it was yours."
"You weren't a subject in our conversation.", said Bonnie
"Barely a sub-topic", added Jake.
"And what was your excuse for listening?", Eliot asked Jake
"Curiosity", he answered casually
"Well children, Mick and I have decided to just forget it ever happened, so it would be nice you can do the same.", said Bonnie
"Sounds about right.", said Eliot
"That's fine with me."
"I already forgot what we were talking about."
"Great now let's go finish that movie. Plus a sudden taste for sausages and egg", Bonnie said on her way out of the bedroom.
"What's wrong, Bonnie; Mick ain't give you enough sausage last ni-", Lenny couldn't finish before Bonnie docked him right in the mouth.
"IT…NEVER…HAPPENED.", she said before returning back downstairs.
Eliot helped up the injured driver, "Lenny, I think it's best you be quiet tonight."
"Yeah…I think you're starting to rub off on her, Mickey.", Lenny replied, rubbing his lip.
