Bedding My Vampire Mate

Chapter 231 Her Longest Bath

"Sugar Daddy?" Joanna questioned, her eyebrows squinted as she looked at her best friend's smiling face.

"Yeah," Audrey replied firmly.

"Don't you think you said the wrong words…,"

"That doesn't matter. What I am trying to say is that you should leave everything in my care. This best friend of yours will make sure your love confession is perfect," Audrey beats her chest with her head held high.

"But…,"

"Since you are worried about me utilizing a huge sum to set up the date, we are gonna use my apartment instead. Bring him over at dinner and I can assure you, he will be blown off his foot," Audrey said with a lot of confidence.

Audrey, who had suggested they went to bed, talked with Joanna deep into the night. Time flew by quickly as the two friends talked happily.

When they realised what the time was, they hurriedly lay down to catch up on some sleep.

In the comfort of their comfy bed, Joanna and Audrey drifted to sleep. Because of the time they spent talking they were only able to sleep two hours before the time for Joanna to get ready for work reached.

The next morning, the radiance of the sun penetrating through the window caused Joanna's eyelashes to flutter twice.

She stretched her body before her eyes fluttered open. Slowly she climbed out of bed making sure that she didn't disturb Audrey's sleep.

What she didn't know was that Audrey had also woken up but was only pretending.

"I barely slept two hours but why do I feel so energized and refreshed, as I have slept for ten hours?" Joanna standing in front of the large dressing mirror mumbled as she looked at herself through the mirror.

Although she had just woken up, her skin was glowing more than usual. It was as if she had used some secret recipe before she went to be.

"Is this one of the magical effects of being in love?" Joanna muttered, the corner of her lips lifted to reveal a charming smile.

Audrey, who was still pretending to be fast asleep, rolled her eyes as she listened to her best friend talk to herself.

"Though I am not sure what is responsible for this, I just know that I love it and I wish this feeling will remain forever," Joanna smiled.

She turned and looked at the bed. After confirming that she hadn't disturbed Audrey's sleep, she tiptoed to the wardrobe.

After removing the white towel from the lower cabinet, she left the wardrobe opened and proceeded to the bathroom.

Audrey's eyes fluttered open the instant the bathroom door creaked close. She sat up with her gaze facing the brown door where the sound of a running tap was coming from.

From where she sat her sharp ears could hear her humming her favourite lyrics.

[When people said those who are in love are mad, I didn't believe it but I do now. My best friend is out of her damn mind right now]

She shook her head, her gaze not moving away from the door. The humming gets louder as time ticks.

[I was worried about her condition and even eager for her to discover her feelings for him but why do I feel worried and scared for myself now?]please visit pαпᵈα-:)ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.co)m

Audrey climbed out of bed. She pulled the black pyjamas so that it covered her exposed skin.

[With the way she is now, I know I am in trouble. I will have to endure having to always be the third wheel. I can already feel that dog food will be abundant… poor me]

The scene of Joanna and Amos being lovey-dovey that is playing in her head made her shake her head repeatedly.

[Despite being aware that I am the one who is gonna end up getting bullied by them, as a sister from another mother, I will give her all the support she needs. I will make sure she gets her own happy ending no matter what]

Audrey smiled and moved to the opened wardrobe. As she freshened up, all Joanna's thoughts were that Audrey was fast asleep not knowing that she was wrong.

Audrey went about doing her thing with the hope that Joanna will be out of the bathroom soon.

Even after she finished with what she was doing Joanna still didn't get out of the bathroom. She waited some minutes more and yet she still didn't come out.

If not for Joanna's humming, Audrey would have panicked and assumed that she might have fainted there.

[What the hell is still keeping her inside? Does she want to use an hour just to shower?]

Audrey couldn't take it anymore. She made up her mind to do something about this.

She stepped down from the bed and was about to proceed to the bathroom but the brown door opened just in time.

The smiling Joanna moved a step backwards when she raised her gaze and saw her best friend's piercing glares focusing on her.

"You… you are awake," Joanna stammered. "Has it been long since you woke up?" She asked as she walked further into the room.

"Why?" Audrey began. She sat back down on the bed. "Are you eager to know whether I heard your hums or that you took forty-five minutes just to shower?" Audrey added.

"Did I take that long?" She asked. Her nonchalance as she moved to the wardrobe made Audrey shake her head.

"I have helped you to pick an outfit so be sure to only pick your undies," said Audrey. She decided not to pursue the fact that Joanna almost spent an hour in the bathroom.

What has happened has happened. Even though she scolds her, nothing will change.

"Really?" Joanna asked. Her eyes sparkled as she spun to look at Audrey. She looked at the bed hoping to see the outfit Audrey selected for her but it wasn't there.

"Where is it?" She demanded.

"Over there," replied Audrey with her hand pointing at the white chair placed in front of the dressing table.

Joanna's eyes followed where she pointed at. The sparks in her eyes faded when she set eyes on the black denim jeans and the blue cropped top neatly placed on the chair.

"Isn't that too ordinary?" Joanna asked as she brought back her gaze to the bed.
