It was October of 2005. I had taken some vacation time to go to my best friend Carolyn's wedding. I had know her since Junior High school, and even ended up going to college together. After checking into the hotel that night, I was ready for a good nights sleep, but called Carolyn to let her know I was in town and couldn't wait to see her tomorrow. She was so excited that I was able to attend. She told me that after the wedding she wanted to talk for a while, as her husband was going to have to go to the airport and make the flight arrangements for the honeymoon the next day. The airport would be three hours away one way. I said I would be more than happy to stay an extra day to catch up on old times.
Well, the next morning, I got up and dressed in my suit and went to the wedding. After the wedding and reception, I waited for Carolyn, she kissed her husband good bye and said she would see him in about six hours or so when he got back from the airport. She got into my car and we drove back to the hotel.
We went inside, and I told her I was going to change out of this suite and into something more comfortable. I excused myself to the bathroom, and had stripped down to only my boxers, when she screamed. I jumped and ran out of the bathroom, and she said spider. I laughed, grabbed a tissue and killed it. She thanked me, and then said she wanted to tank me for being such a good friend all these years, and loaning her money, and never taking any repayment.
I told her she was more than welcome, and started to walk back to the bathroom to finish getting dressed, when she came up to me through her arms around me and pushed me onto the bed. Before I could say anything she leaned over me and gave me a kiss. I couldn't believe what was happening. I think she knew I was stunned, because she smiled, and said she had been planning this for a while.
