The drive back to the hotel didn't take long, and I was showered and downstairs again by 10. I was sitting in a lecture, barely able to stay awake, and possibly nodding off. I came back to my senses when I had people enter the row I was in from either side. As I glanced up, I realized it was Victoria and Joshua. It seems they had both gone to my room to knock around 1030 pm last night, decided to have a drink together and pick each other's brains for the possibility of where I might be, and ended up spending the night together. They had the brilliant idea we should all three spend tonight together. So much for being incognito. But the smell of Victoria and that wicked grin of Joshua's soon convinced me to do so. They asked where I had been the night before, but I insisted I had slept through the knocking and had had my phone off the entire time. Whether they believed me, or even cared, it didn't matter, as we had plans for tonight. We decided 10 pm would be a good time to rendezvous at my room as we all knew where that was.
As the afternoon lectures wrapped up, I planned to take a nap in anticipation of this evening's party plans. While signing out for the day, Raj caught my elbow and asked me if I'd join him for dinner. He explained he could stay on, but wasn't sure he would, and really wanted to have dinner with me tonight. I agreed to meet him at 7 in the lobby, figuring even if we had a long dinner, I'd be back to my room by 9 or 10. I went to my room to nap, but just couldn't unwind. I headed to the gym for a run on the treadmill, then back for a shower and primping before meeting Raj.
Raj was a fantastic dinner companion, even more charming than at lunch the day before. He had me giggling and blushing like a school girl. He was flattering, but sincere; attentive but not over bearing. When I realized it was 945, I feigned sleepiness. Raj insisted on walking me to my room. This could be a disaster. I figured if both Joshua and Victoria turned up at the same time, it would look like a miscommunication by a couple just happy to have connected. At the door, he kissed my cheek and then my hand, and asked if I were staying on tomorrow after the end of the conference. I told him I was checking out in the morning and heading back Saturday night. He asked if I would have dinner with him again tomorrow night as soon as the conference closed. I agreed as I wanted to avoid rush hour, and thought it would be a nice way to wrap up the week. We agreed to meet in the lobby as soon as the conference closed. He then kissed my cheek again, lingering there for just an extended moment. I let myself into my room at 955.
At 10 there was a knock at the door, and when I peeked through the peephole, there were Victoria and Joshua already in an embrace. I was starting to think this was not a good idea, and I was going to be the third wheel. I became pleasantly surprised to find out this was not the case. I let the two in, and apparently they had come prepared. Joshua had a magnum of champagne under his arm, and Victoria had a sack with all kinds of sex supplies. Apparently while I was at dinner, they had gone shopping at the local XXX store as well as the wine shop down the road.
Joshua popped the cork of the champagne almost immediately, and Victoria produced some plastic flutes. Joshua filled and handed around the bubbly. He then pulled Victoria onto one knee, and me onto the other. He made a toast to doctors, conferences, and your alma mater. Victoria was giggling like mad, and kissing Joshua's neck and face. I toasted, but offered to let them have their own party. I was frankly tired and fucked out, and didn't want to play second fiddle. I didn't want to sound like a party pooper, but I wanted them to have a way out if they wanted. Instantly they both insisted we all stay together.
Joshua said he hadn't had this much fun since med school, and he wanted us to all party together. He then told us an amusing story about a night during med school when he had fucked three different women, one after the other not as a group, and his roommate, Jake, had had to run interference between them so each didn't find out about the other. The story was hilarious, but even funnier since I got to hear about how you had to orchestrate something out of a Marx Brothers movie in order for each of the young ladies not to know about the other. Then the next day in lecture, Joshua had waltzed in, plopped down next to you, and kissed you in front of the entire class. The women, all classmates of yours, were horrified, and he didn't have to do any explaining to move on from them all. They interpreted your maneuverings as jealousy, and you didn't get lucky the rest of med school, at least not with any of your classmates.
