There was another knock on the door.Tanner! No. Gah!I wasn’t sure why I ever thought it was him. I hadn’t heard from him in over a month. He’d forgotten all about me. And here I was with cockjaw, doing nothing but thinking of him. I hated this fake engagement. I hated that I had to lie to everyone I loved. But lying to Tanner felt worst of all.
I opened the door. Again, it was neither Tanner nor my friends. It was another courier. This was way too many couriers.
I grabbed the envelope he handed me and opened it. Inside was a plane ticket and a note:
Meet us at the airport in five! We’re going abroad!
P.S. Don’t forget to pack the necessities.
P.P.S. And by that I mean bikinis.
P.P.P.S. And by that I mean very slutty bikinis. Put the one-pieces away, bitch.
XOXO,
Chastity
Abroad?We were supposed to be hanging out here playing Seven Wonders. I’d gotten very into boardgames during my fake engagement. Especially Seven Wonders. Chastity knew this. I didn’t want to go abroad. There were certainly strippers abroad. Foreign ones. Which meant more sexual. There’d be way too many penises!
And five...what? Days? Hours? I looked at the plane ticket.Ah! Five minutes?!

I collapsed on the couch at our resort. Italy oozed romance. And romance made me think of Tanner. And I didn’t want to think about anything right now. I just wanted to get this over with and get hitched.
I pulled the lid off of Seven Wonders.
“Girl, you didn’t even look at the view.” Chastity grabbed my arm and pulled me to the window. We had an amazing view of the Colosseum. “I wanted to bring you to the seven wonders.”
I smiled. I thought this whole trip was an excuse for strippers. But this was actually very sweet of Chastity. No, the Colosseum wasn’t technically one of the seven wonders…but I’d recently gotten an expansion for the game - Seven Wonders: Leaders Expansion. And the Colosseum board in that was now my favorite wonder to use.
“And I brought us togas to wear while we play!” Chastity pulled them out of her suitcase.
I stared at her when she handed it to me. She was being very sweet.Too sweet.What was her angle here? Were there strippers in the ceiling or something? I looked up, but there were none hiding that I could see.
Maybe Chastity was actually going to behave and respect my engagement for once. And it was fun to dress up for the game. I quickly changed.
Okay, I’d found the catch. My toga was super slutty. I’d never shown so much sideboob in my life. And the slit in my skirt was SO HIGH. At least we weren’t leaving the room. I pulled on the strappy white gladiator boots that matched. And the beautiful white laurel wreath crown. Chastity put a BRIDE-TO-BE sash over my shoulder.
My bridesmaids were all wearing similar togas, but less slutty. And theirs were pink instead of white. Frankie and Chastity both looked amazing. And actually Madison looked pretty good too.Chastity had done her makeup and made her look super girly. I hadn’t hung out with Madison much recently. I’d been too busy being a whore and then fake engaged. But it was good to see her. And I’d asked Frankie to be a bridesmaid too. I didn’t know her super well, but I felt like I did. Because whenever we weren’t hanging out, it seemed like Nigel was always talking about her...
I sighed. Nigel. I missed him too. I tried not to think about the missing men in my life. We all sat down around the board in our togas. It was a very immersive experience.
And we proceeded to play Seven Wonders for hours, tournament style. It was very competitive. And the perfect bachelorette party.
“I don’t understand why we didn’t invite Liz,” said Madison.
Because I hate her. And I’d literally rather die than have her as a bridesmaid. Even a fake bridesmaid.I just shrugged instead of saying it.
“I think her feelings are going to be hurt.”
Why? We’re not even friends.She could burn in hell for all I cared.
“If she was here she’d just fall asleep,” said Chastity.
“Yeah, but she’d at least be included. Women need to stick together and support each other.”
“Who is this Liz person?” asked Frankie.
