Chapter 13
The show had been just as good as advertised, and Fredi had scored them great seats.
‘Those were worth every penny,’ Bonni said.
‘When that one guy sidled up to Ava I thought I was going to die laughing.’ Celia giggled, just remembering it.
‘Oh, he washottttt. I swear, I got a contact high just from being near him. And the guy in the SWAT uniform! Bonni, are you holding out on us?’
‘Ha, no. They grow them mighty fine in Canada, but none of the guys I work with is quite so . . . sculpted.’
Celia put her arm around Fredi and gave her a squeeze. ‘How about the tuxedoed dudes? Wouldn’t they make excellent arm-candy for the models of your wedding dresses?’
Fredi nodded. ‘They would certainly catch any bride’s attention. I don’t think I’ve ever seen such perfect specimens ofmen before.’ She turned to Bonni. ‘What do you think? Still settled on Quinn? I think the cowboy was eyeing you from the stage.’
‘Okay, enough of that already. Those guys are gorgeous,there’s no doubt about it. They are unreachable. Untouchable. And I bet they’re all gay.’
‘Bon-Bon, don’t say that! It completely ruins the fantasy.’ Celia frowned, and Bonni could tell she was thinking aboutit. ‘Damn. Oh, well, there’s always Antonio.’
‘What do you say we head back to our hotel?’ Bonni suggested. They agreed and found a cab to pile into.
Back at the Gladiators, Fredi announced: ‘There are some gorgeous hotels on the Strip, but I’ve become attached to this one.’
They walked throughtheirhotel. Four confident, beautiful women. Bonni wondered if the others noticed the looks theywere getting. They were hot, and walking like they owned the place. Bonni was so happy for this girls’ weekend away with her friends. She wanted to make sure they continued to have a great time. But Quinn was on her mind, and she checked her watch.
‘What time are you meeting Quinn?’ Ava asked her.
‘I have about another thirty minutes.’
‘Perfect, we have time to go and grab a drink or something.’Celia pointed off to the left. ‘We haven’t been to that place yet.’
It was packed, and they were lucky to find a row of stools at the bar.
Bonni got her phone out and set it in front of her.
‘Where are you meeting him?’ Celia asked, as she looked at the cocktail list.
‘We haven’t really decided. I told him I’d text him when we were done.’
‘Why don’t you have him come here?’ Ava suggested.
‘Good idea.’ It gave her more time with her friends, and Quinn’s room was right upstairs. After sending the text, she put the phone down to order a Hendricks and tonic. Just as the bartender was serving her drink, her phone chimed.
QuinnBryant:Yep. 10 minutes.
‘Was that him?’ Ava asked her.
‘Yes. It was.’
Celia clapped her hands. ‘Ohhh, we’re going to meet him again. How exciting.’
‘Youknow where you’re going?’ Fredi asked her.
Bonni shook her head. ‘No, we didn’t really make plans on what we were going to do, just that we would see each other.’ She looked at her friends. ‘Thanks for being so understanding.’
‘Of course,’ Ava said. ‘It isn’t every day you meet someone that leaves you breathless.’
‘I never said he left me breathless.’
