The morning came in with a crash as Dylan woke to the sound of her cell. Reaching over to the nightstand, she searched for the annoying sound with no luck. Having no other choice but to get out of bed, Dylan pulled the sheet from the bed in search of her phone. Even though her phone was on the kitchen counter, the volume was so loud that she heard it in the bedroom. Just as she was ready to pick it up, the ringing stopped, but not long enough before another wave of noise echoed through the room. Dylan knew she shouldn’t have let Lilly pick the ringtone when she called. This early in the morning, waking up to The Chicken Dance was not the least bit cute.

“Remind me never to let you pick my ringtone for you,” Dylan said half asleep.

“Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you. Happy birthday, my bestie in the whole wide world. Happy birthday to you,” Lilly sang happily out of tune.

“If you promise never to sing to me again, you can pick my ringtones. Do you know what time it is?” Dylan asked.

“Yeah, it is 10:00 am,” Lilly said matter-a-factly.

“Girlfriend, you do realize you are six hours ahead of New York time?” Dylan reminded her friend.

“Oh God, Dylan, I totally forgot about the difference in time. If I told you I’m coming to the States to see you, will you forgive me?” Lilly asked as calmly as if she was asking Dylan to pass the milk.

“Wait, what? Did you just say you’re coming to New York?” Dylan asked, now fully awake.

“Yepper. I should be there by tomorrow afternoon,” Lilly confirmed.

This couldn’t be a better birthday for Dylan. Her best friend, whom she hadn’t seen in weeks, was coming to New York. Even though they talked almost every day, Dylan still missed Lilly. By the time she finished her conversation with Lilly it was close to 5:30 a.m. No longer feeling tired, Dylan decided to use some of the added energy and burn a few calories. Walking back to the bedroom, Dylan saw that Rade was no longer in bed. She was afraid that the sound of her phone might have woken him up. When she saw Rade step from the bathroom door, her suspicion was confirmed. His wet body was wrapped in a plush white towel. Soaking up his godlike body, Dylan could feel the wetness forming between her legs.

“I didn’t mean to wake you,” Dylan apologized for the early morning call.

“Why would you pick The Chicken Dance as a ringtone? Unless you really like that annoying song,” Rade said, unamused.

“Or someone who really likes to annoy me, like Lilly,” Dylan confessed. “She forgot about the difference in time.”

“Well, that explains everything,” Rade replied. “So how is Ms. Davis these days?”

“Good. Really good. She’s coming to New York. She should be here tomorrow afternoon, which brings me to my next question. Can she stay here with us?” Dylan asked, stepping closer to Rade.

“You don’t need to ask, Sweetness.
