Rolling over I sprawl out on the bed and slowly open my eyes as they adjust to the light shining through my bedroom window. Looking around I notice Linc is no longer in bed with me. I feel disappointment sink in as I realize he just up and left as soon as he awoke.

Climbing out of bed I throw on some pajama shorts and head downstairs. When I entered the kitchen, I found Linc at the stove, cooking eggs.

“What time did you wake up?” I ask as I get to work making a cup of coffee.

Keeping his back to me, he answers, “Around nine or so. I got up and called the exterminator. He just left a few minutes ago actually. He looked all under the house, spraying rodent shit or whatever they do, and then came up to inform me the only thing in this house are some spiders in the basement. There’s no sign of mice anywhere. Which is kind of hard to believe, seeing as you about gave me and Abby a heart attack last night with your little performance over the mouse you supposedly saw running through the family room.”

Crap!

Why did he have to go and call a damn exterminator? I thought he’d look around for the mouse, give up, and that would be that. I didn’t think this far ahead.

I stir my cream and sugar into my coffee and try to think of what to say to that. I can’t admit I lied because then I’ll look like a crazy person.

“I don’t know what to tell ya. But I saw a mouse last night. Either that, or I was so tired I thought I saw one. All I know is, I saw something brown and hairy with a long tail run across the floor.”

“Are you hungry?” he asks, thankfully changing the subject.

Taking a sip of my coffee, I close my eyes momentarily, savoring the taste and relishing in the feel of the caffeine entering my body. Opening my eyes, I burst out with nervous laughter as I catch Linc watching me look like an idiot drinking my coffee.

A smirk plays on his lips as he shakes his head at me and goes back to cooking scrambled eggs and sausage links.

“I’m starving,” I finally answer before taking another sip of my coffee.

We spend the next thirty minutes eating at the kitchen island together, talking about college. Linc graduated already from Berkley, getting his Bachelor’s degree in business and marketing, but told me he wants to follow in his father’s footsteps and one day be a professional golfer, with his goal being to become the next Tiger Woods. Which is a pretty big mountain to climb. But I think if he’s determined enough, he can do it though.

We got onto the subject of golf, and I told him how I thought it was the most ridiculous sport on the entire planet. Somehow, it ended with us here at the country club, with me wearing golfer’s saddle shoes and head-to-toe golf attire that Linc made me buy at the pro shop here.
