It was a young night, the music banged from the speakers as they all danced. Darnell sat at one corner, even if it were her bachelorette night, it seem way out of her kind of party.. apparently, her step sister, Marina and her bst friend Joan planned this night and it seemed to be going well.
At one corner she sat with the drink in her hands, taking a sip trying to enjoy the night and not let their efforts go to waste. Marina sights her from after, as she hurried over to Darnell, her eyes widened in surprise.
"Don't tell me that you are here sulking up when it's your bachelorette night? Darnell? She called but Instead Darnell sighs, looking at her over active sister.
"You and Joan clearly know this is not my kind of space, you even fixed the party in a bar Marina, what happened to hotels?" Darnell asked, with Marina rolling her eyes as if she was nagging.
"Darnell, this is the hotel booked for your wedding and it's still a hotel." Marina added.
"Don't play mind games, Marina..we could have used one of the halls."
Darnell requested.
"The bar is fine and besides the hotel management offered this venue for free, so it you're worried about the.proce then you shouldn't..it's on the hotel." Marina added.
"Seriously right now? You want to pull that card with me." Darnell questioned in between smiles.
"You know for your age, one would think you are evolutional but nope, you're too old school. Sometimes I wonder how youw rre able to bag Joan as your best friend, she is the exact opposite of you. It's a night to your big day and you're concerned about a venue?"
Darnell sighs rubbing her forehead, " Don't get started with me. You know I am saying the truth." She managed to say but she was grateful, regardless theys till threw her a party.
"There's no birthday celebration without a birthday celebrant and the same applies to your bachelorette party." She added with finality in her voice, stretching out her hand to take Darnell's.
Darnell looked at her hand then sighs, she might as well let this cup pass and do as Marrina had instructed, taking her hands as Marina helped her up, she was more than excited to be called Mrs. Martinez and tomorrow would officially end her five year relationship with Daren. So she better make the most of this night and have all the fun as a single woman for the last time.
"I'll get you something to soothe you...you seem too upright." Marina added the walked over to the counter to get the drinks, handing it over to the ladies at the party, Darnell took a glass, as she sipped it dancing to the rhythm of their hails.
"You go girl!!!!!!" She heard Joan's voice from the background. It didn't take long for her to feel too tired, she was already weak from planning the wedding and allt his activity were making her weaker.
She turned to Marina, " I give up....I thinks it's best I sleep right now if I wasn't to be able to make it to my wedding tomorrow."
Marina shot her a glare, "Are you serious right now? You want to go sleep?"
Darnell nodded, Joan walked up to them.
"You should have known her by now.... She's not as. Bubbling as you are. Darnell, you can go to bed now. Marina and I would take care of things down here. You need your beauty sleep." Joan added, taking a small sip of her drink.
"You sure?_ Darnell asked, taking up her cell phone as she ran her hands through her head, she was tired.
"Sure. You u should rest. We don't want Daren to run when he sees your eye bags tomorrow." Joan teased further.
"Don't jinx it." Marina added, shook her head at Joan before turning to Darnell,
"You have your card right? " She asked, and Darnell nodded.
"I'll see you guys...have fun and tha k you so much for this." Darnell pulled them into a small hug, with a peck on their cheeks before taking the last sip of her drink.
"I'll be heading up now and please, don't get drunk and miss my wedding tomorrow, Joan specifically." Darnell said pointing at Joan,
"I'll look after her." Marina says, with Darnell nodding in satisfaction.
"You two are the worst." Joan cursed under her breath and then walked away.
Darnell sighs, as she grabbed the entry card from her purse heading up to her room, getting out of the elevator, she felt immense weakness, her vision was beginning to get blurry. She Managed to stay up on her feet as she began counting the room number,
"122....123...124...125....126..? There you are." She opened the door, walking in to see a hazy figure of someone on the bed,
"Daren? Is that you?" She staggered, as she held the couch for support,
"Oh gosh I feel so weak. What kind of drink was that?" She murmured as she held her head.
She felt someone carry her, placing er on the bed, her eyes flutter open, she couldn't decipher who was that but her sixth sense told her it was her husband to be, she burst into laughter.
"You couldn't wait, could you? ......" Her voice trailed, " it's abominable for the gr...oom....tooo..seee.."
He placed his hand on her lips, "Shhhhhhh...." Then shook his head staring at her body lustfully, " I just missed you. I can't wait till tomorrow." He then placed his lips on herw, setting her body on fire, for some reason she was felt an outburst of emotions and the urge stronger.
Normally, she would have pushed him away but she instead, reciprocated the kiss.. whatever that was in her, was pushing her to down the worst, in shifts second she wrapped her arms around him, sitting her, she deepened the kiss, she couldn't wait,
He helped her up, still kissing her , Sher hand immediately traveled to his belt trying to unbuckle it whennhe stopped her,
"No no no......too fast." He moaned, as he kissed her neck down to her shoulder, then with his eyes locked in hers,
"This how it's done." And with one stretch, he tore her satin gown in shred, leaving her with just her undergarments, picking her up as she tossed her to the bed.
"I'm good to make crazy love with you tonight." And that was the last sensible word she heard with the cloud groaning, announcing its downpour.
