Benny Ryan

I didnt do much messing around with Steph in the room we found down the hall. And I didnt talk to Ellie before leaving the reception with the kids. The reception was going later, but it was eight, and I had to drop Dani to her friends, and Sammy to the sitter. 

I was supposed to have the night alone with Steph with the kids away, but plans had changed, because I didnt want to bring her home. I didnt want...her. My mind was still on Ellie.

"Are you serious right now Ben?" Steph said. 

"Yeah." I sigh. 

"Jesus Ben..." she says, getting out and slamming the car door in my driveway. 

"It's really not you Steph" I say as I get out of the car.

"Oh, I KNOW its not me Ben, what the fuck? " she yells and pulls her keys out of her purse. 

Ten minutes later she's gone and I'm single once again. Of course I didn't give any real reason as to why I wanted to stop seeing her, just that I knew it wasn't fair to compare her, or anyone else to Ellie. Which was what I've been doing with every female i've tried to date since she let. 

Once inside the house I go to the living room and sit down to watch television. Two hours later I'm asleep on the couch until my phone starts to ring. 

Waking me up out of my sleep I pick up the phone to an unknown number calling. I grumble and set it back down.

It rings a second time, then a third. 

"Hello?" I answer gruffly. 

"Hello???" I ask again, frustrated when there's no response. 

"Hi Benny" her voice comes through the phone and my heart stops. 

"........Ellie?" I ask. 

"Bennnyyyy!" she says my name drunkenly.  I can't help but smile, even though I know she's wasted, and will regret this in the morning. I miss her voice. 

"Hey baby" I say. 

"You left" she says and then groans and I hear the phone drop and her little "aw shit" in the background. 

"Hold on Benny, I dropped you!" she yells and I laugh and sit up on the couch. 

"Benny? Benny? You still there?" she asks.

"I'm here baby" I say. 

"You left " she pouts through the phone. 

I don't think arguing with a drunk girl about the fact I told her I'd never make first contact is really smart or necessary. 

"Sorry baby" I say and she gives a tiny little whimper. 

"I miss you Benny, so much" she says. 

"I miss you too." I reply and then she just hums a little sigh. 

"Where are you Benny? You're not here" she says. 

"I'm home." I answer. 

"With the kids?" she asks. 

"Dani is at a friends and Sammy is with a sitter" I say. 

"Oh....is she there?" she asks and I know she means Steph. 

"No, shes not" I say. 

"She's real pretty" she says.

"Yeah." I say. 

"Do you love her ?" she asks and I shake my head as I answer.

"no, I broke up with her tonight" I say. 

"I love you Benny" she says. 

"I love you too El " I reply. 

"I leave tomorrow....I go back to Arizona" she says and I sigh. 

"yeah, I know" i answer. 

"Come sleep in my bed with me Benny" she says. 

"You're drunk" I tell her. 

"Please." she says softly. 

"Where are you?" I ask. 

"The hotel....room 216...no....215" she says. "Hold on ..." she says shuffling and i laugh as i hear her move. 

"Ow...fuck" she mumbles, and I heard something rattle and bang. 

"You alright baby?" I ask. 

"Table jumped out at me" she says and I chuckle to myself. 

I hear her open the door. "Two fifteen!" she exclaims. 

"Alright baby." I say. 

"Really?!" she squeals. 

"you're coming?" she asks. 

"Yeah, dont fall asleep alright? Not till I get there." I say. 

"Mmmmhmmm, hurry, I miss you" she says and I take a deep breath. 

"I miss you too, be there soon."

---

When I get back to the hotel where the reception was at I go to the second floor and find her room, shaking my head and rushing in, in a panic cause the door was left ajar.

"Ellie?" I ask and walk in quickly. 

There she is, laying in bed, champagne bottle in hand in nothing but panty hose , a strapless bra and those spanx things females wear are half pulled down her legs, showing off her panties. She's on her stomach, and her cute little ass is showing in her thong through the panty hose. 

I sigh as I look at her, mouth hanging open slightly , eyes shut, breathing evenly. 

I walk back and close the door and lock it. 

I walk over, grab the champagne bottle and set it on the night stand. 

Then I pull the spanx off from around her thighs and off her feet, and pull the blanket up over her lower half. 

I search the room, and find her purse and grab a hair tie from it, then walk over, gently pulling her long hair, still fucking soft as ever, gently into a loose pony and then kissing the top of her head. 

I then pull the covers up to her shoulders and sit on the floor beside the bed, turning the tv on, leaning my head back on the edge of the bed, and end up passing back out, sitting up.

Ellie Riley

I love hotel comforters, I think to myself as I start to wake up and curl up into the  soft fluffy down comforter and slip my legs back and forth against the soft sheets. 

I yawn and whimper at the champagne, and whatever else I drank last night, headache. I groan thinking about Benny as soon as I wake up, and I remember my dream of calling him, confessing I missed him, that I loved him. 

My phone dings from under the covers and I flip them up to find it, and answer a text from the one groomsman and brides maid that had helped me up to my room. 

"Alive." I reply and then check the rest of my texts. 

"I'm here baby. Coming up now." the text says and I scrunch my nose at the words and then read the name.

"Shit." I say and shoot up. It wasnt a fucking dream. 

I clasp my hand over my mouth to stifle my scream when I see a mans head at the foot of my bed. I freeze and then realize within a second. It's Benny. 

"shit.....shit. shit. shit. shit" I hiss under my breath. 

What the fuck did you Ellie? I look down at my self, my bra and panties and pantyhose are still on. So we didn't have sex. No Ellie, you were drunk, of course he wouldnt have had sex with you. The voices in my head are calling me all sorts of colorful names as I stare at the back of his head and I crawl carefully off the bed and tip toe to the bathroom, snagging my bag of clothes and locking the door behind me. 

I should just, get dressed and leave. Not say anything. 

Yeah, asshole, like you can do that after calling him to come here in the middle of the night. 

He came here in the middle of the night. He came here, for me. 

I sigh. Deciding I need a shower to wake me up and rinse off the icky hangover feeling before I apologize to Benny. I'd be leaving later today. Going back to Arizona. I shouldnt have called him. But I did. God damnit Ellie. You just had to get drunk, I yell at myself. 

Twenty minutes later, I throw on a new thong and a casual thin strapped, light blue and white floral, ruched top dress with a little ruffled hem. 

I brush my teeth, then towel dry my wet hair and brush it and pull it up into a messy bun, because I can't do my hair, I cant put effort into him seeing me, I can't make it look like I care. I need to just go in there and apologize. I nod at myself in the mirror. 

"oh shit" I mutter when I open the door and see him sitting on the bed, leaning back on his hands, looking from the television to me. 

He smiles and fuck, fuck fuck fuck. 

"Hey baby" he says, as if seven years havent passed, and we're still laying in his bed that summer. 

"Benny." I say quietly. 

"Don't worry , I won't stay, just wanted to make sure you were alright" he says. 

I pull my lower lip in between my teeth, standing there silent. Do I want him to stay? No, no Ellie. He should go. 

"I know you were drunk last night, so we wont count this as you reaching out, I'll still leave you alone, let you get on with things and all that." he says and stands. 

i swallow hard and still say nothing and turn my head slightly and look away from him, lifting my one hand to my arm. 

"Yeah...well....good seeing you El" he says and I feel my body beg me for the familiar comfort that I've missed, and just reach out and touch him, grab him as he walks by. 

But I dont. And he leaves, walking past me, his scent passing with him and I close my eyes as he walks out the door. 

I breathe heavily as the door shuts. I replay what I remember of my "Dream" phone call last night. 

"Do you love her?"

"No. I broke up with her tonight"

I turn and pull the door open, and see his tall frame, about to turn the corner. 

"Benny!" i yell and he pauses, turning back. 

I step out of the room and I walk slowly as he turns and faces me completely , standing there, tall and gorgeous. So fucking handsome. 

He doesnt say anything, and after a few steps, my pace picks up and then I'm dashing down the hall, bare feet slapping against the carpet, and I feel my chest swelling as his lips turn up at the corners. 

His arms are waiting as I jump into them, throwing my body at him like a god damn sugar glider. Clinging to him, my legs wrapping around his waist, the feel of him sends every memory of that summer through me, and then my lips are on his, crushing his lips hard with my own. 

"baby" he murmurs as he grabs my ass. and turns and pins me to the wall. 

 "you sure you wanna do this?" he asks and I know what he means, he means go back to my room and let him make love to me for the first time in seven years. 

"yes" I pant as I slip my fingers into his hair, my mouth parting for his as he pulls me from the wall and carries me back to the room.
