This was going to be harder than I thought.
Chapter 5 – Lucy
I tossed an extra pair of wool socks into my suitcase. Growing up I had been a girl scout, so ‘be prepared’ had been ingrained in me at an early age.
I heard a rapid-fire knock on my dorm room door and I knew that it was Tania. Ever since I got engaged to Lawrence she had become my new best friend. I couldn’t go a day without a text from her asking me to hang out. I didn’t want to be rude, and since it was rare that someone as popular as Tania would want to hang out with me, I tried. I really did.
When I complained to Lawrence about Tania boring me to tears, Lawrence called me a snob. Me?! If anyone was a snob, it was him and Hunter. But the more I thought about it, the more I realized that he was right. I did look down on Tania because she was, how do I put this nicely: basic. So, when Tania asked me to go away for a weekend bachelorette party, I agreed. I wanted to prove to Lawrence, and to myself, that I wasn’t an academic snob, that I would never look down on someone because of their level of intelligence.
“Hi, Tania,” I said as she burst into my room in a flurry of energy.
“Are you ready to go?” she asked, smiling at me.
“Just about, I’m trying to decide if I should bring another pair of socks.” I gestured to the pile of socks on my bed.
“Socks? Are you serious?” Tania grabbed the socks from my hand and threw them into my suitcase. “We’re going for three days. Take three pairs of socks - and six bikinis,” she smiled.
I laughed and started to zip up my suitcase.
“How many do you have?” she asked.
“How many what?” I was confused.
“Umm. Bikinis,” Tania said, looking at me like I was an idiot.
That’s when I realized that she was serious about the bikini comment - I had one packed. We were going away for a three-day spa retreat in the mountains, how could we possibly need six? “I guess it couldn’t hurt to pack one more,” I said, trying to appease her.
“Just one?”
“That’s all I own, Tania. Two bathing suits.”
“Well, that will change when you and Lawrence start spending the summer at his house in the Hamptons,” Tania said, wrapping her arm around my shoulder. “My girl, you’ve got so much to learn.”
I zipped up my suitcase and followed Tania out to her Jeep Cherokee. I hopped in the back and was introduced to the two other girls, Avery and Montana.
“Like the state?” I asked when I heard the brunette’s name.
“You got it!” She smiled and laughed. “When I was born, my parents were spending a lot of time at their Bear Tooth home. “I know it kinda sounds like I should be spending my spare time on a stripper pole, but nobody else in the class of 2022 has the same name as me.”
I smiled to myself. Montana and I might just get along. Avery was easily the prettiest girl that I had ever seen in my life. Her hair was white blonde and hung down her back like a silk curtain. All three of them wore Canada Goose jackets and cute pastel colored hats with furry pompoms. I felt a little out of place wearing the faded red ski coat I’d had since high school.
Montana was a business major and was slated to take over her dad’s publishing company. She was smart, savvy, and out of the three, the only one that I really connected with. Her dad was making her get her MBA, and he was making her climb the ladder of the corporation – something that I respected. Avery and Tania expected to meet their husbands at college and achieve a Bachelor of Wife degree.
“So…” Tania cooed, looking in the rear-view mirror at me. “We’re all dying to know. We’ve heard rumors about Lawrence and have to know if they’re true.”
“Rumors?” I replied.
“About the size of his, you know… package,” Tania giggled.
My face flushed red. Lawrence and I had made out heavily, and I had certainly felt Lawrence’s penis through his silk briefs, but I had never actually seen it.
“Oh, it’s everything you’ve heard,” I lied. “And what exactly is it that you’ve heard?”
Tania laughed. “That he’s a solid ten inches.”
I had no idea, but that measurement certainly seemed like a stretch.
“And does he know how to use it?” Avery asked.
