A New Dildo

Chapter 64:

A NEW DILDO

64. Saturday arrived at the Atlanta Ritz-Carlton. I was spending the weekend here in total luxury with three of my college buddies. Still a bit fuzzy from the antics of the night before, I rang up the other suite. Tommy answered, a lilt to his voice. He suggested that we all congregate in their suite for some room service breakfast and to plan our day. Over breakfast we learned that Jack and Al had a golf tee time at noon-thirty. They’d be leaving at noon, back around fiveish. Tommy wanted to do some shopping for trinkets to take back to his family. My mind vacillated between Claire, from the airline, and a nap.

Al and I returned to our suite. He jumped in the shower, so I headed to the lobby. I was hoping I could convince the front desk to give me Claire’s room number. Failing that, I’d try the concierge. There must be a way. After all, she had somehow gotten my room number.

“Good morning Mr. Sailor. What may I help you with?”

“I’m trying to contact one of the flight attendants who is staying here. Her name is Claire, and she checked in yesterday, checking out Sunday. Any chance you can share her room number with me?”

“Unfortunately, we’re not allowed to release that information Mr. Sailor. But I’d be happy to either forward a message to her or, if you prefer, I can dial her room, and you can take the call on the house phone at the end of this counter.”

“Yes, that would be perfect. Call her for me, please.”

“Certainly, sir. When that phone rings just pick it up and you’ll be connected.”

In moments the house phone rang, and I picked it up. “Hello? Claire?”

“Yes, this is Claire.”

“Good morning, Claire. It’s Sailor.”

“Oh, hi, Sailor. I was just talking about you. I was having a late breakfast with some of the other attendants, and we were trading stories about interesting passengers and our encounters.”

Jokingly I responded “Oh, great! Now I have an airline reputation to either uphold or run from, depending upon what you said!”

She chuckled. “No, no. It was all good Sailor, very good” she said with a smile in her voice.

“I called to see if you wanted to spend some time together this afternoon.
