This may be closer to a gone pretty damn mild story. But it’s my story and you’re getting it.
She had been my partner for three years but I hadn’t talked to her in more years than that when she called. She wasn’t in my contacts but I still recognized the number.
Our relationship had been remarkably free of stress or arguments, especially considering it was long distance. Maybe because of them. I had met her when I was in town for work and ended up spending the weekend with her. And we never stopped. We’d spend a long weekend together once a month and I think we were determined to wring as much sex, laughing, and cuddling as we could out of our time.
It was good until it wasn’t as they say. But even the breakup was relatively painless and we had both moved on. That is, until the phone call. She had been engaged and recently broken it off (I didn’t know any of this). She had booked a two week trip for the honeymoon. It was too late to cancel and she needed a fun break after the fall out of the broken engagement. Would I come? Everything was covered except for some meals…
