Chapter 5

Michael was still sitting at the bar waiting for Kelvin when a call came in. He dropped his glass of vodka on the table and picked up the call. "Yo! What's up??"

"We've found her." The voice on the other side of the phone said. Michael didn't understand what the guy was saying so he stood up and went somewhere remote and quiet.

"I didn't get you before. What did you say?"

"We've found Nora Bell... Your girlfriend."

"What?" asked Michael with his tone rising from low pitch to high pitch. "Where's she?"

After he got to the room she was in, he ran to meet them, and to his greatest surprise, Nora was there sleeping soundly. Michael shut the door after him as he paced the room to and fro. "Check everywhere and make sure no one is here," Michael ordered as his friends went to carry out the order searching every nook and cranny of the room.

Kelvin overheard their conversation and thought of how he was going to hide from them without them seeing him. He looked up at the ceiling and he was glad to see that there was a little space between the wall of the bathroom and the ceiling. He looked at the space and looked at his body.

I think I can fit in here perfectly. He said to himself as he climbed and hid in that space playing dead although it was uncomfortable.

The door of the restroom opened and a head poked in. Kelvin didn't move a muscle, he was as quiet as the dead even his breathing could not be heard but if you touch his heart right now, it was beating very fast, not that he was scared but he just didn't want to be caught hiding in the rest room for no reason. The door of the restroom closes as Kelvin breathes a sigh of relief.

"No one here," White said.

"Same here." A huge guy with big muscles said.

"Did you check under the bed, Austin?" White asked the big muscle guy.

"I searched everywhere. I couldn't even find a strand of hair," answered Austin. Austin turned to meet Michael. "So Mike, what's the plan?" He asked.

Michael had no plan. "I wish Kelvin was here, he'd have thought of something."

"What if we have sex with her? besides, you don't love her anymore." White suggested and immediately, Austin smacked the back of his head, making him move forward a little. Michael was glaring at him.

"Despite the fact I don't want her, I don't like that idea of sharing what's mine." Michael looked furious.

"I'm sorry." White quickly apologized.

"I think I have a plan," Michael said as he whispered his plan to them.

They all nodded and smiled. Michael moved closer to Nora, he touched her hair and moved down to her shirt. Good thing she's facing up that way it would be easier to get the job done. He gradually opened her button one after the other until he was done with each button and Nora's plain white bra could be seen. He gestured to them to start taking pictures and photos of her.

He moved closer to her legs and he opened her legs wide open since she was wearing a skirt and gestured to them to take photos and pictures. After they were done, Michael felt fulfilled.

"Let's go." He left as the others followed after him. "Make sure you post it online....especially on the Oak and Honey site," Michael said as he closed the door.

Kelvin waited to hear them leave before he got down from his hiding spot. He opened the door gently to see if they were gone, when he found out he was alone, he came out of the restroom and moved closer to Nora who was still sleeping.

Kelvin, do not get involved. Just leave and pretend you didn't see anything. Kelvin said trying to convince himself to mind his business but he just couldn't. He looked at her for a while, studying her features; her olive-tone skin, her curly hair, her long natural eyelashes, her pointed nose and, her orange moist lips. How can he not help her besides no one would find out he did anything.

He sat on the bed. He helped her to button up her shirt and he clasped her legs together. "Nora." He called her name unexpectedly and immediately, Nora's eyes opened. Kelvin was startled, he didn't even know when he stood up from the bed. She looked at him wondering why he was sitting next to her on the bed.

"What are you doing?" She asked tiredly. As she tried to get up, Kelvin slapped her face making her fall back to sleep. He didn't need to be told twice, he quickly ran out of the room.

When he got closer to where his friends were, he put up a fake smile as he walked to meet them. Michael was the first to see him. "Where have you been?? I've been looking everywhere for you."

Really? Kelvin thought. "Well, you know me...I had some babes over and I was having a good time with them and damn when I say those girls were good, they were amazing..good is an understatement. They were perfect." Kelvin said as he sat down next to them while Michael poured him a drink.

"And you didn't think of calling us so we can enjoy them with you? That's so not fair! What are friends for?" White was sad wearing a frown on his face.

"OK. I know I should have called but I just needed them for myself alone...no sharing. You know how stingy I can be with my property."

Michael laughed as the other guys joined in. "What about you?" Kelvin asked, sipping his drink. "What have you been doing after I left?"

Michael coughed before answering. Kelvin could notice the hesitation in his voice. "Well, just like you, I've been busy with my damsels." He lied.

He's lying? But why would he lie to me? Because he knows I won't have agreed to what he did? Kelvin thought as he faked a laugh.

"Why don't we just enjoy the night, uh? What do you say?" Austin said, raising his glass as everyone cheered.
