I’ve learnt tonight that Lucy is the romantic of the group. She’s never had a one-night stand in her life, which is why I’m so surprised by her enthusiasm for the hunky guy.
“I take him home, tell him my rules, and just have sex.” She exudes so much confidence that, for a second, even I believe her.
“Rules?” I question, lowering my drink as my voice slurs. I don’t need any more alcohol tonight.
“No names. No eye contact.”
Megan nods, too convincing. “She even has a ‘Cocktact Only’ sign on her bedroom door.”
I flick my eyes to Lucy to find her head thrown back, laughing. “I don’t, but I’m getting one.”
“Me too.” I grin.
“I feel like it’s time. And Nina isn’t here to talk me out of it. I have my bad influence—the devil on my shoulder,” Lucy says, cocking her head toward Megan.
“I’ll take the flack,” she confirms with a nod.
“Wait. Should I be talking you out of this?” I question, placing my hand on my chest. “Because I don’t want to. That man is fine, and he’s been watching you all night.”
“Right. He screams clit man,” Megan adds.
“Clit man?”
“The man doesn’t need any training. He’s driving home without Google Maps turned on.”
I laugh, but my thoughts instantly go to Lance and how I came so many times at his skilled hands. How he touched me as if he already knew exactly what I liked.
“Does that come with practice for a guy?” I ask.
Lucy shakes her head. “I believe it’s about the connection. A man caring enough to make a woman feel something. Which is where I lose all faith in this plan. You bitches better not have me faking it tonight.”
Lucy stands, straightening her stark white dress. “Someone stop me.”
Megan reaches into her purse and then dangles a set of keys from her pointer finger.
I roll my lips, excitement fluttering in my stomach as Lucy finishes her drink, taking the keys.
Megan latches on to her hand as she eases by us. I see them lock eyes, something passing between the two friends. “Stick to the rules.”
“Promise.”
“Are we really letting her go with him?” I lean into Megan as we watch Lucy walk to where the guy is standing.
“Ifshe goes home with him, then it’s a one-night thing to Lucy… but I already know the guy’s name’s Nick. He’s a paramedic who lives with his parents and has a dog named Elvis. I had Mason’s stalker guy Scott look him up while you guys were in the restrooms.”
I frown. “Mason has a stalker guy?”
“You don’t know Scott?”
I shake my head no.
“I’m pretty sure Scott is Vinny’s right-hand man.”
Another thing I didn’t know. “So, she’s safe?”
“I wouldn’t let her leave if she wasn’t.”
My eyes stay on Lucy as she talks to the tall, dark-haired man, her hands working as she explains something. He’s fixated on her. Giving her his full attention.
