.. I felt a nudge. Opened an eye and saw the clock. 0650.“Our wedding day, Carl.”I turned to face her.“Still time to run, Sunny. But I really wi...h you wouldn’t.”“Not on your life, Carl Primeaux. You’re stuck with me.”“I’ve settled myself to that conclusion. Not half bad.”“Not half bad?” she tittered. “Good enough for a quickie, then a shower?”“Ma’am, you know how to wake a guy up...”She LIKES a quickie, and I like ‘em, too. Squeezed both of us into the hotel shower afterward.“Now, for the rest. She pulled onmy left nipple, stretching it out and told me to take a deep breath andhold it. She pushed the needle through my nipple into the orange. Thepain was intense, but brief. She then put a ring into the hole she hadjust made. Tears were running down my cheeks, but with Leon holding myshoulders I was trapped where I was.Ruby said, "See, that wasn't so bad, now for the other one."I begged earnestly, "Please don't Mistress, I can't stand the pain.Besides, I have to go to work and I cant go. Killed today." The line went silent."Oh, God no! What happened Steve?" It was a traffic accident. She was hit by a truck that ran a red light. She never knew what happened." Oh Steve, I'm so sorry. This is truly awful. Is there anyone there for you?" No ... not really. I phoned Diana's parents and they were pretty devastated. I called mom, but she wasn't home. I left a message. I'll be okay, Dad ... once I get used to the idea." Steve, I'm going to catch a plane in the morning if I can. I'll be. “I will.”He enjoyed his rest and had to stifle a yawn as Carla approached. “Keeping you up past your bedtime?”“I guess I’m more tired than I thought. Having two newborns in the house makes a good night’s sleep hard to come by.”Dan slipped on his underwear, excused himself, and went for a short walk. He found the theatre room empty with a porn movie still playing on the large screen. Not interested that the film showed two women and a guy in a threesome, he found a double padded seat and lay.
