Taking it easy

For the next few weeks, you take things easy, making a few public appearances to promote the movie while also making sure to remind the public of your powers and identity as The Ringer. You stopped a couple of potential dangerous situations around the world, grabbing plenty of headlines, while still being based out of the hotel in Los Angeles you've been staying at. As a result of your constant presence there, the rates for the rooms at the hotel have skyrocketed and they're making lots of profits thanks to you and the people who stay there just to catch a glimpse of you. Of course, the hotel doesn't charge you a single penny and every of your needs is tended to for free. The hotel has also beefed up its security to keep non-guests and paparazzi out, so it's quite a good situation for you.

As for the sequel to the movie, you've been putting it off although you've already spoken to the studio about it and they're planning the resources, script and casting for it. They say production should be ready to start in a few weeks. Meanwhile, since coming to an understanding with Madison, she's been to your hotel on 2 Wednesdays already. Each time, she's made no protest or shown any ****, and you can sense she's slowly warming up to you, or at least getting used to the idea. You've also popped in on Victoria at times, and Melanie is always somehow around, so you've got plenty of pussy to be content with at the moment.

It's Tuesday night and you had just returned to the hotel from saving a bunch of tourist stuck in a monorail in Disneyland when your phone rings. It's Madison, so you answer it, thinking she's probably calling to confirm her regular date with you tomorrow.

"Hi Madison."

"Hey," she says neutrally.

"What's up? Can't wait to see me tomorrow?"

There's a pause on the other end of the line before Madison speaks. "No... about that, can we reschedule? I can come over the next day. Or maybe I can spend the weekend with you?" Madison says, sounding hopeful that you'll give her some flexibility since she's been good for the last couple weeks.

"O-" You're about to readily agree to her request when you stop to think about it. "I don't know about that. You agreed every Wednesday night is our time together and no matter what, you'll spend that night with me, unless I'm occupied."

"I know, it's just that..."

"Just that... what?"

"It's my birthday tomorrow and I'm supposed to spend it with my mom and sister. They don't know about our... arrangement," Madison says.

"Oh," you remark, thinking about what Madison had just said as you consider how to answer her request.
