It’s amazing how much tamer he looks asleep. His face is almost angelic, but that’s not him.
I don’t know enough to establish if he’s good or bad, but I know he’s nothing close to angelic.
He’s the forbidden fantasy that makes you wet just from the sight of him and the guy you don’t take home to introduce to your mother until you have to.
I wonder what life would be like if I’d had more time to know him.
Given how we were last night, he might be happy to see that I’m still here but I would never take such a risk. I’d never be one of those clingy girls who didn’t get the memo about what a one-nighter means.
This is my first but I know the ropes, and I know the way guys like him are.
He’d expect me to be gone before he wakes, and I’m certain he’ll resume his normal life or even do the same thing we did last night with another girl.
Why wouldn’t he?
He’s gorgeous and perfect and knows it.
At the same time, I think he gave me the thing I sought when I came to Vegas—freedom and life.
It’s like I created him in my mind and wished so hard I could have him that I conjured him into real life.
But he’s not mine.
With that reasoning, I get up and make the regretful decision to leave my handsome stranger asleep in his bed.
Quietly, I get myself dressed, but I can’t find my damn panties anywhere. I thought they were with my dress, but they’re nowhere to be found.
I’d rather not have to go back to my hotel without panties, but as I don’t want to risk staying here longer than necessary I decide to give up my search.
Thankfully, my dress is just about long enough to cover me and make me feel assured that I won’t be exposed.
I grab my purse and spot Aries’ wallet sitting on the floor next to the bed. I freeze and stare at it, knowing what I might find if I look inside—the answer to who he is.
It could be as simple as finding his driver’s license.
That would tell me everything and I’d have something more to remember him by—like his real name.
What if he did the same to me while I was asleep?
My driver’s license and work ID are in my purse.
The temptation to look through his wallet is so strong that I take one step forward before I stop.
His words of loving being with someone who doesn’t know him drift into my mind and reason with my thoughts.
It was nice being with someone who didn’t know me, too. It was magical.
That’s what I’ll take with me and make it be enough.
Goodbye forever, Aries.
No names, no strings attached. Just the memory of last night.
