Current Location: Cheap thrills Party inc.
I was standing outside the building waiting for Mrs. Spooner to bring around the party bus when a text came through from Kyle. "Hey boss lady I am across the parking lot, and I have eyes on you. Do not worry I will stay in the shadows. Also, I took care of Shelly. I sent her dad an anonymous text from a burner phone saying I had his teenage daughter and will only give her back if Shelly was there. Then as soon as Shelly got word and left her house to go to her dads, she stopped at a gas station and went inside. I than took her phone from the car so her dad cannot warn her when Shelly’s sister comes back and finds out she is completely fine, and the text was only a prank."Brilliant job Kyle! Just remember when I give you the signal it is time for your photography skills." I sent the message and I heard three short car honks in concession. Conformation from Kyle that he understands.At that moment Ruby and Dede both pulled into the parking lot one behind the other. They both got out of their cars and approached me. "Emma, you made it here first! But why are you outside is something wrong?" Ruby’s face scrunched up with worry."Oh no nothing like that. The owner of Cheap Thrills Party inc., Mrs. Spooner, just went to bring around the party bus. " I said anticipating the disappointment she was feeling.Ruby gasped "Ew a party bus why would you book a party bus I hate them! You should know that from our cousin Saras birthday party two years ago. I must have mentioned it like twenty times that night!" Actually, it was more like three hundred but who is counting.I faked a look of shock stating innocently “Oh no Ruby. I completely forgot. Shelly said you would love it. In fact, everything that is planned for tonight was her idea. I just booked the time slot and forwarded the list she sent me to Mrs. Spooner."Ruby shrugged " Ugh I guess Shelly forgot I hated them. I will forgive her for this because I know everything else will be spectacularly fun. At least I hope." I was having a hard time not busting a gut full of giggles. Dede looked at Ruby confused " Ruby I do not understand why Shelly booked this bus. She definitely knew you hated them we just talked about a few days ago when we went shopping." This was great Dede is unknowingly helping me make Shelly seem like the asshole here.At that moment Mrs. Spooner pulled around with the party bus. I must say it was an eye sore. It was the most hideous and flashy party bus i had ever seen. It had half naked men and woman on it, and it had orange and red lightning bolts all over it. On top of all that in gigantic Hot pink letters it said," HONK IF YOU ARE HORNY". Ruby looked like she was going to be sick. She looked as though she wanted to just lay down and die right where she was standing." Why would Shelly request such an outrageous party bus! Has she gone mental all of a sudden? There has to be a mistake this cannot be our bus!" Ruby cried out. Mrs. Spooner stepped out of the bus and addressed me " Hello Emma. It is a pleasure to see you again. Everything has been planned out per Miss Shelly’s instructions." When Mrs. Spooner said this Ruby looked pissed off."Excuse me. I am Ruby Saxton, and this is my Bachelorette party. I know Shelly asked for this bus which blows my mind that she did, but is there a possibility to use a different one instead?" Ruby said full of hope. Mrs. Spooner looked at Ruby apologetically "I am so very sorry, but I am afraid all of our other party buses are rented out and in use. I am so very sorry for disappointing you!""Do not be this is not your fault Mrs. Spooner. Shelly on the other hand is going to get a mouthful from me when I talk to her. She is not answering my texts now probably already knowing I am mad." Ruby said with fire in her eyes." Let us just get the night started."We all headed inside the bus. Even though I arranged for this bus to piss Ruby off I was relieved that the inside was not any different than a usual party bus. It had seats, a bathroom, a bar, a dance floor, and a privacy curtain between us and the driver. I pulled Mrs. Spooner aside and told her we had to pick up Derek and told her where to go.The windows on the party bus were completely blacked out we could not see out and no one could see in. When we arrived outside of Derek’s house Ruby had no idea. "Where are we?" Ruby pondered.I smiled ant Ruby "Wait here for about five minutes. I have a special surprise for you!" Ruby looked back at me with a frightened face " Emma I have had my share of surprises already today and I have to say I have not liked a single one of them! I suppose though there cannot be anything worse than this party bus." Oh, just wait and see Ruby. I deliberately rolled my eyes at her " Trust me Ruby you will love this one."I turned around and went to the front of the bus behind the curtain than exited through the door. Derek was sitting on his front steps smoking a cigarette." Cousin, you know those things will kill you right." Derek grinned back at me "Seriously that is our ride tonight I bet Ruby is pissed." I nodded and laughed "This was all Shelly’s idea, and she is not even here. Ruby is so mad at her."" Okay the night is not getting any younger let us go. Just make sure you stay behind the curtain until I say so. I saw the list of things Shelly has planned for tonight and my guess is you will probably be the only happy surprise!" Derek’s eyes opened wide "Shit well It is a good thing I am here to ease the tension. After you Em!" Derek stared at my ass the whole way back to the bus. He is disgustingly vile.I walked back into the bus and went through the curtain. Ruby looked at me uncertainty "Em, what is going on? What is this surprise you have for me? I am getting a little antsy over here."I smiled at Ruby "well I was not sure what to get you as a wedding gift, especially since you and Shane already live together so I thought long and hard about it and this is the only thing I could think of. You can come back here now!"Ruby stared at the curtain in anticipation. At that mentioned Derek pulled open the curtain. After the disbelief Ruby was feeling dissolved, she started laughing and ran and jumped into Derek’s arms."Derek!! I am so thrilled you are here! Emma you were right this is the best present ever. If I ever have another party, I want you to make all the decisions! I was so upset Derek has to miss my wedding because he cannot get out of work. Now even if this night somehow turns out miserable, I can bare it now that Derek is here!" Ruby said emotionally.I hated seeing her so damn happy. At least I know it is only going to be temporary. With all the shenanigans I have planned tonight it will not last. And the finally of the night is going to change her world forever. After tonight it will be a long time before she is happy again, including here wedding day, I guarantee it!Current Location: Cheap Thrills Party Bus"So Emma since you saw the list do you know where we are heading now?" Dede asked me curiously. "Wait you do not know? Shelly said you worked with her to make the list. I did see the list, but I only glanced it. I believe we are going for dinner before going to a club to finish off the night. I am just not sure which restaurant or which club." I said knowing Shelly said no such thing.Dede was speechless at first than said to Ruby" what the hell is going on with Shelly, Ruby? First all these crazy arrangements for your Bachelorette party. Then she lies to Emma and says I helped her come up with the festivities for tonight! Which for the record I had nothing to do with." "I know you did not. I saw the shock on both of your faces. Shelly has a lot of explaining to do." Ruby said confidentiality."Maybe Shelly is interested in Shane and she is trying to ruin your happiness." Derek suggested. Well, he is not far off except he is wrong about the gir
Current Location: The Whip and Chain.Leaving the driver and Mrs. Spooner on the bus, we walked into the Whip and Chain. I could see the chagrin on Ruby’s face. Ruby was utterly disgusted by this choice of venue. It made me extremely happy deep inside!Why would Shelly do this? Is she trying to get back at me for something I did? I cannot imagine what though." Ruby mumbled to herself. "Look, it may not be what you imagined for your Bachelorette party, but we are here so let us make the best of things." Derek smiled gently at Ruby.I turned to Ruby." How about we do this. I will go grab everyone’s drinks. And before you go and try making requests, I am choosing the drinks for everyone tonight. Ruby it is your party, and you can cry if you want to. But you are going to have fun even if it kills you." Derek screamed " Hell yeah cousin! That is what I am talking about. Someone making my dear sister climb out of her shell."I smiled than turned around and headed for the bar. After ordering
Current Location: My bed around four o'clock in the morningI was jolted out of a deep sleep by the constant ringing of my cell phone. I rubbed my eyes trying to get my bearings. My phone stopped ringing, so I was planning on going back to sleep. But withing about five seconds it was jingling again. I reach for my phone and unsurprisingly I see that it was Ruby calling. I expected this now that the drugs have worn off, I knew she would be panicking.I answered the phone with a huge yawn " Ruby do you have any idea what time it is? First you ditch me last night now you are calling me so damn early in the morning!" Ruby broke out in hysterics." I ditched you. Did I ditch Dede as well? She has not been answering my calls either. I have been trying to get through to you and Dede for the last thirty minutes. I was about to give up. Anyway, none of that is important you can catch me up on all of that later. I have a favor to ask can you please come back to this nightmarish club and pick me u
Current Location: Wedding venue bridal parties dressing roomRuby was already here when I walked in. "Hey Ruby, how are you feeling after your, um, Bachelorette party?" Ruby rolled her eyes "Happy it is over but thankful for you. I think without you everything would be ruined. I am so happy you are my maid of honor. Shall we start getting dressed. I noticed our dress bags all have our names on them."I was having a tough time holding back the excitement inside me. Ruby is already pissed at Shelly. Now Ruby is going to hate Dede as well. This was a complete disaster no bride would ever want to go through, and one Ruby could never had anticipated.Ruby pulled down the zipper on her garment bag and was utterly shocked to see, not the beige dress she wanted, but a lime green dress that was two sizes too big. It looked like baby poop it was so ugly. I approached my dress bag and unzipped it. It was purple and very poofy with a lot of lace it looked like a fancy tablecloth, and it was a siz
Current Location: Wedding venue the alter"I am so sorry Ruby! I only said Emma’s name because she helped me write my vows. As I was saying them, I was thinking how thankful I am to her." Ruby let out a huge sigh of relief "I understand Emma has helped me out a lot in the last three days as well. Emma from Shane and I we are truly grateful for you." Well, that was anti-climactic. At least that means everything I have done up to this point was not for nothing.The minister got to the I dos than he said, "You may kiss the bride." Just like that Shane was a married man and I was now a mistress at least until the shit hits the fan Shane gets the pictures and divorces Ruby.The wedding party went back to our respective rooms to change into our outfits for the reception which will be held at the Cheap Thrills Party inc. ballroom. Ruby was on cloud nine. I could not wait for that cloud to open up and pour down. The shit show that was coming to her over the next ten days will be epic.We arriv
Current Location: Outside my house at four sixteen Jefferson StreetI asked Shane if he wanted me to deal with Ruby and he said no. "Babe eventually I will have to talk to her about moving out and getting the marriage annulled. You should go ahead and head inside I will talk to Ruby and be in as soon as possible I promise."Shane and I both got out of the car. I grabbed the groceries, and I headed inside while Shane went over to Ruby’s car. I made it to my kitchen and a text came through on my phone. I opened my messages and was curious as to why Ruby was sending me a text when she was pretty much right outside my door. "Em can you come out and talk to me after Shane comes inside, please?" More than anything I wanted to tell her no, but I knew if I did, she would just call anyway. If I did not answer Ruby’s call would call repeatedly until I did. I simply texted back "Sure" and left it at that.I started unbagging the groceries and put the beer in the fridge. I started preparing dinner
Current Location: My best friend Natasha’s house"I feel like it has been ages since I have seen you, what has been going on?" Natasha asked. I do not keep secrets from Natasha, so I started at the beginning explaining everything in a lot of detail much like I am doing right now for you. Natasha laughed when I was finished. "Damn Emma bean you really have it out for Ruby huh? Well, you know if you need anything from me, any help at all I am your second in command. "I was hoping Natasha would say that "Actually I do need your help with something social media wise, and since you are the best hacker on the face of the planet, I could really use your skills." I said buttering her up. Natasha through a playful smile at me. "Throw me in coach I am ready!"I had Natasha hack into Derek and Rubys social media accounts. Natasha guaranteed no traces would lead back to us. We dealt with Derek’s profile first. I had Natasha load the less promiscuous photos, the ones with barely any nudity. They h
Current Location: My living room "Jesus Emma you scared the crap out of us!" Shane said looking as white as a ghost. I laughed "Well last time I checked this is my house correct? I am not use to so many adorable creatures in it. Hey kids are you guys hungry?" Austin, Carter, and Molly said in unison "Starving " I responded with "Good let is eat than."After we all got situated at the dining room table for dinner, I opened all the containers, and pointed out what each dish was. Austin wanted spaghetti and meatballs, Carter wanted raviolis, so did Molly. Shane I both went for pierogis and a sausage linguine. Everyone also had a slice of the sauce less pizza and some salad."Emma thank you so much for dinner it was an unexpected joy!" Austin, Carter, and Molly followed Shane and they all said their thanks. "You are mommy’s cousin, right? Why is daddy here with you without her?" Molly asked out of the blue. "Yes, sweetie I am her cousin, but I have been friends with your daddy for a long
