Nothing bad about that.

Mr. Stranger

And I’m a virgin.

CHAPTER THREE

BODHI

“Shit. Why did I tell her that?” I shake my head, chastising myself for being so forward. I’ll be lucky if she doesn’t respond with a huge laughing emoji. Or worse, maybe she won’t respond at all. Not that I should care in the slightest. I realize I’m sitting alone in my darkened apartment eating a dinner I didn’t make and talking to a stranger who accidentally texted me a few days ago.

Her opinion doesn’t matter.

She has no idea who I am.

So, it’s not like my name is going to be splashed all over the tabloids in the morning.

Rolling my eyes at my overshare I toss my phone down and lean back in my chair to take a long sip of the cola I grabbed from the fridge. I poke around my plate with my fork so irritated with myself, I’m now not at all interested in this ridiculous dinner.

Maybe I should just go back to the arena and practice.

Or to the gym downstairs for a workout.

Or maybe I should just go the fuck to sleep.

Either way, I no longer want any more of this lasagna, but as I stand up to pitch it in the garbage my phone dings. Expectingto see nothing but a bunch of laughing emojis litter my screen, I smile at the message waiting for me.

Diary Girl

That’s not a bad thing but I’m guessing it bothers you.

Me

If you knew what I did for a living, you would probably be shocked.

Diary Girl

Is this where you tell me you work in the porn industry but yet somehow you’re still a virgin? Is this like one of those always the bridesmaid, never the bride kind of things? Like always the fluffer never fluffed?

Me

LOL no. I promise it’s not. I am not a fluffer. Also no, I do not work in the porn industry.

Diary Girl

Hmm. Alright. *thinks* Is it because you have a third and fourth nipple or something and women just aren’t into that kind of kink?

Me

Is there a third and fourth nipple kink that I’m unaware of? *Hey Siri…*

Diary Girl

Hell if I know, but I’ve certainly seen some things in my day.

Me

See? That right there. You’re definitely a nurse.
