This is the fourth part of a series that starts with Monogamish--The Courtship. I hope you will enjoy it. If you finish this installment, you know the drill: vote, favorite, and especially comment, please. All the time-wasting BS you hear at the start of every YouTube video...
As always, I aspire to make my stories merely plausibly ridiculous, or maybe ridiculously plausible. Either way, this ain't real life, so don't lecture me on realism. I just hope that, given these two highly-improbable characters, you will feel like the ride makes some semblance of sense.

MONOGAMISH -- The Bachelorette Party, Day 2
----------
The next morning was... non-existent. I woke up at 11:25, and I may have been the first among us to arise.
I took a long shower and brushed my teeth twice. I took my vitamins, took some Advil, did my face... and brushed my teeth again. Linda joined me in the bathroom, naked, and took a shower longer than mine.
"A fucking hickey?" I asked, looking her over in the shower. She blearily flipped me off. My balding man must have been amazing for Linda to let him mark her.
Getting Patty and Jenn out of their room took some doing, and we were not assembled in the lobby before almost 1:30. We fortunately found a beignet shop that understood everybody is hungover every day in the French Quarter, and served those tasty treasures until three in the afternoon. We feasted desperately, after flirting with the counter guy.
Then we took a carriage ride around, and flirted with the driver.
Then we did a museum tour, and flirted with the cute docent.
Then we went to another hotel, got on a fucking carousel that rode around a bar, and had a hair of the dog. And flirted with the bartenders.
Dinner was everything Patty could want, and everything my tummy needed. It was a huge, elaborate meal in many small courses, and with fancy, delicious cocktails which were all very small, so we weren't getting too drunk, too early.
By eight o'clock, we were back at our hotel and inventorying our stuff for the evening. Everything was in place. We had huge tubs of ice, courtesy of the hotel, some beer, more wine, and lots of Cognac and Tequila. There was the music we wanted. There were party horns and other ridiculous shit like that. Indulgent sweets, and salty snacks.
And condoms. Plenty of condoms.
"Are you sure you are going to need those after all, Miss I Didn't Fuck the Tasty Blonde Beach Boy, Even Though We Were Naked and He Was Gagging For It?" Linda taunted.
"Last night, for me, was about making them want what they couldn't have," I said loftily. "Tonight... tonight is about me getting comprehensively off, because yesterday made me unbearably horny."
"And," I added, "neither of us got completely naked, and in his case, I genuinely regret that."
"Seriously?" Paula shouted at the ceiling. "We are done, and all ready. But our party favors don't arrive until ten, and it is still only 8:15!?!"
And that is how the eight of us ended up playing Cosmic Encounter (with expansions). Paula had brought it, thinking that morning was going to be a good time to play it. Hah. Mornings don't exist in Nola...
At 10:05, Noor won. The bitch. Three whole minutes later, Linda's phone rang.
"Showtime," she said, hanging up.
I found myself hyperventilating. I had been keeping this party in the back of my mind for weeks before this weekend. I had a plan. I was both totally stoked and... terrified.
All of us were, I realized. And that relaxed me. We knew what we were signing up for. We had discussed it in advance. Once everyone had fully grasped that I was serious about maybe getting laid, and certainly getting completely raunchy otherwise at my party, well, everyone else kind of wanted in as well. Except Melody, of course, though even she still intended to have fun. This party could get out of control. This party was basically designed to get out of control.
So here was our big splurge for the whole weekend: We had booked four buff male strippers for the whole night, until three am. For just the eight of us. We wanted to make sure there would be enough, um, results to go around.
It had taken some real work to ensure that we had exactly what we were looking for. Linda dug and dug, and dodged a whole lot of porn on the internet before we found just the right service, one that would provide us guys like we wanted, who were also of pre-negotiated virtue. I had helped her in the end, but that had been mostly the hard slog of drooling over pictures of individual performers... Linda was a great Maid of Honor. She had even had to argue with the lady who did the booking that yes, we wanted four guys, yes, for that long, yes, just for eight of us.
The woman had at last sighed and said, "You girls a horny bunch, yah."
"You have no idea," Linda had replied.
I took my seat in the chair we had decorated like a silly throne, while the rest of my 'court' spread out around the room. Linda went through the door to the connecting room where Noor and Paula were staying. The dancers would come there first, to get dressed. Noor and Paula had stuck all their valuables in our safe earlier. Gotta be secure...
