Somebody Owes Me Money
“Somebody warm. Somebody soft. Somebody who smelled musky and nice. Somebody female.
Female? My eyes popped open, and I was looking at a lot of tangled blond hair. I blinked at the hair, felt the warm female body snuggled against mine, and for just a second I was afraid I was in terrible trouble. Then I remembered. I was in terrible trouble, but not that kind.
I must have moved or something, because all at once the mass of hair lifted, like a drawbridge going up, and two wide-open blue eyes were... three inches from my face, staring at me. I blinked. They blinked.
I said, “Good morning.”
She jumped a mile, or at least out of my arms, and sat beside me, holding the covers up against herself and staring down at me.
I said, “Abbie, this was your idea. You were very cool about the whole thing last night, so don’t fly off the handle now.”
Comprehension flowed into her eyes as though poured in from above, and she said, “Chet?” As though to be sure what she was seeing was right.
