Returning Emily's scarf
I stared intensely at the business card. Was that really her cellphone number?
Emily Ratajkowski had been sitting next to me on my flight to LA. I had watched as she de-stressed for sleep by masturbating alongside me. I had even caressed her legs to enhance her post orgasmic bliss.
I had found her scarf by her seat after she'd disembarked and now here I was in a toilet cubicle, holding a business card that had fallen out of the scarf. On it were written her twitter handle and a phone number.
I began to consider the possibilities. If she had accidentally left the scarf behind her why was there a business card wrapped in it? Had she left the scarf intentionally for somebody to find? Was that someone me? It seemed too outlandish to be true.
I cleaned up, headed through immigration and baggage, then took a cab to my hotel. I hadn't slept well on the flight, what with watching one of the world's most beautiful women take her sexual release before me. I had a room service dinner and fell asleep.
The next day was a whirlwind of meetings, lunch, and more meetings. All the while I had the card in my back pocket and Emily's scarf in my bag. I felt duty bound to protect it by keeping it close.
My last meeting concluded, and I headed back to my hotel. Before my mind turned to dinner plans I took another look at the business card. I began to tap it on my knee as I thought it all through once again. It's not a 'business' business card - surely that would include email details and a postal address?
Could it be a 'personal' business card? Something she gives to those she wants to be close to her? Her twitter handle is no secret, but maybe it's her way of casually identifying herself?
Maybe the phone number connects to her assistant?
I couldn't in all good conscience keep her scarf. I had to return it. The only means to arrange that were on the card. I didn't feel I could tweet her publicly, which left the phone number.
I picked up my phone and started dialling the number. Before hitting the call button I stopped then hit delete.
I opened the messages app on my phone, started a new message and typed the number into the sender box.
What to write? I thought.
'Hey, this is Adam. I met Emily on her flight to LA yesterday. She left her scarf on board and I have it with me. I'm in LA for a couple more days so I'm happy to arrange its return. I'm not sure if this number is an assistant or Emily's private number - it was on a card with the scarf. Please do get back to me and we'll arrange the safe return of her scarf.'
Then the eternal question. Should I leave a x kiss at the end?
No harm I thought so I dropped a couple on the end of the message.
I left my phone on the bed and went to the bathroom to take a leak. I went back to my phone. No reply yet.
I opened the message I'd sent. At the bottom was a speech bubble with the three grey dots that tell you that the recipient is typing. The speech bubble disappeared as a reply was displayed on the screen.
'Hey! Thanks! Are you free to return the scarf this evening? Xx' read the response.
An erection again. Could it be her? Kisses?? Polite kisses as a reply to my own, I thought.
'Tonight is fine', I started replying. 'Who am I speaking with? Is this Emily or an assistant?'
'It's Em :)' came the response.
I had a brief panic. Was it really her? This could be an elaborate scam of some sort, or she could think that I'm a scammer.
'You know', I began, 'just to be certain, I'll send you a photo of the scarf, so you can be certain it's yours.'
I took a quick selfie of me holding her scarf next to my face with a cheesy grin and hit send.
The reply was a big grin emoji, followed by 'thank you so much!'
'I'm sorry, but I need to be sure you're part of Emily's team. I'm sure she wouldn't want this to end up on eBay! :)'
I looked at the message thread. The replies had been snappy up until now. Perhaps it was a weird and elaborate scam after all.
I put the phone down and lay on the bed. I held the scarf to my face and inhaled the perfume deeply. Such a sweet heady arousing aroma!
I felt my phone vibrate on the bed alongside me.
The lock screen said '1 new message: photo'.
I unlocked my phone and opened the message.
The photo was a selfie of Emily. It's a face I've seen a thousand times and I never tire of it. That flawless olive skin, her eyes, deep and brown, lips glossy.
She had one eyebrow raised and the opposite corner of her mouth pulled to one side. Next to her she held a piece of paper with a message scrawled on it with a sharpie. It said 'Yes Adam, you dummy, it's me!' finished off with a kiss and a smiley face.
Ok! It's her! I started giggling. I wasn't sure what was going on. I typed her number into my contacts and hit the 'store' button. In my phone she was now Em.
My phone vibrated again - 'Em wants to share their location with you.'
What?
I hit accept, and shared mine back.
The next time my phone vibrated it was a new message from Emily.
'I'm at my hotel and I'll be here all evening. Could you bring my scarf over? Xx'
'Sure thing, I'll be over in an hour.'
I was beginning to think I was having a vivid fantasy and still asleep.
I had had a long day so I took a hot shower, put on some fresh clothes and headed out, Emily's scarf in my bag and a head full of possibilities.
As the taxi approached her hotel I sent her a message.
'I'm almost there. Shall I leave the scarf at reception for you?'
':/'
was her reply
'I'll see you in the lobby xx', was her follow up.
I took a deep breath before I stepped out of the taxi.
The hotel lobby was spacious and light. Hotel staff flitted around but there was no sign of any guests. And no sign of Emily.
I checked the location tracking app on my phone. She and I were in the same place. She was here somewhere.
As I looked back up the elevator ahead of me opened.
A single figure was silhouetted by the elevator light. A woman with gently flared hips, a nipped waist, and long hair flowing behind her. As she stepped towards me into the light of the lobby my mouth went dry. It was Emily.
She walked towards me with those hips swaying gently from side to side.
