One Wild Night

"Hello! Mason Publishing Agency, what may we do for you?" A lovely feminine voice asked.

"My name is Jeff Banks and I\'m a die-hard fan of Miss Sonia Smith. I noticed your company always publishes her books. Is there a way I could get her editor\'s number from you? I\'d love to send them a gift," Bryan lied, using the names of the last character he had played.

"Uhm, hold on for a moment," The lady said, and placed the call on hold to call her boss.

Bryan waited for what seemed like a long time before the call connected again, "I\'m only permitted to give you Mr. Conner\'s email address. You can contact him through his email," The lady said, and waited for Bryan to accept or decline the offer.

"Sure, that would do. Thank you."

"," she readout, and Bryan quickly looked for a pen. He asked her to spell it out just so he was sure he was getting the right thing, and when she was done, Bryan had a grin on his face.

"Thank you so very much for your assistance. I will be sure to refer my writer friends to your company," Bryan said before hanging up.

He quickly logged on to his email account and typed in a message, "Hello Mr. Conner! This is Bryan Hanks, and I would love to speak with you over the phone. Please do not tell Sonia about this. Kindly contact me as soon as you receive the text," He added his phone number to the text before sending it.

Having accomplished his task for the day, he felt light-hearted, knowing that he would soon find out Sonia\'s location. He placed a call to order food and then proceeded to pick up Sonia\'s novel to continue from where he stopped. He often found himself roaring with laughter or feeling very sad as he read. He was very impressed with her writing style and was glad his fake fiancee was quite a talented writer. He knew without a doubt that many people would purchase her books simply to check her out because she was his fiancee, and he was both glad and relieved to know that they would all be impressed as he was.

He glanced at his phone when it started ringing and winced when he noticed it was a call from his closest friend, Matt, who was also an actor, "Hey!" He asked with false cheerfulness.

"Why do I get the feeling that you\'re not excited to hear from me?" Matt asked with a chuckle.

"Because I\'m not. If you\'re calling to make fun of me regarding the engagement, don\'t," Bryan warned.

"There is nothing to talk about. I have no doubt that you\'re not really engaged to her, although I wonder why you did what you did," Matt said.

"Why are you so sure?" Bryan asked, and Matt chuckled.

"Because I\'ve known you for more than ten years, and you can never keep such a relationship a secret from me, even if it means calling me just to gloat about how you\'ve found the love of your life," Matt said making Bryan grin since that was the truth.

He explained the situation to Matt, and Matt\'s body shook with the force of his laughter, "I like her. She is totally my type," Matt said with a grin.

"She is?"

"Yeah. I could get her off your hands if you want me to," Matt offered.

"You\'re sure about that?" Bryan asked hopefully.

"Definitely. Let\'s just hope you don\'t fall in love with her after I\'ve taken her off your hands," Matt said with a grin, imagining what it would be like for himself and Bryan to be involved in a love triangle.

"Never. I don\'t do crazy ladies," Bryan said confidently.

"Never say never. Just let me know once you find her, and I will do what I can."

"Alright, I will let you know once I do," Bryan said, glad that he had been able to confide in his closest friend.

All he wanted was a way to break off this false engagement. It would be best for him if Matt got involved with her. That way he could play the victim and say she had cheated with his friend or had dumped him for his friend. Then no one would blame him for going back to his playboy lifestyle. Bryan had a grin on his face as he poured himself a glass of wine to celebrate his beautiful plan.

Meanwhile, Sonia lay on her bed, unaware of Bryan\'s plan, as she tried to come up with her own plans. All she was thinking about was Bryan and how to make her story about them more fun. Merely calling him wasn\'t going to do what she wanted, and it definitely wasn\'t going to bring them closer since he would keep asking her for the same thing. She needed a new strategy to get his attention.

She thought about his family. His mother had seemed nice. She wished she knew more about his siblings than what was written on the internet about them... She quickly sat up when something suddenly occurred to her, and her mouth rounded in surprise. How had she not connected the dots the whole time? She recalled reading something about Bryan Hank\'s brother being the CEO of iGlobal and his sister being a lawyer. That meant his brother was now Lucy\'s direct boss! How had she missed such an important point? A smile slowly spread across her face. Her story was going to become even more interesting now.

She quickly jotted down her thoughts and made a mental note to give Lucy a call once she was done formulating the plan she had in her head. The smile remained on her face as she wrote down everything. She knew she was crazy no doubt, and that her plan was outrageous, but she also knew if she wanted a beautiful result for both her relationship with Bryan as well as her novel, then she needed to follow her instincts and do this.

Once she was done writing she packed her hair and stood up to arrange her room and bags.. She was going on a trip to pay her fiance a not-so-surprising visit.
