CHAPTER ELEVEN

Michelle had been planning on feigning illness in order to avoid whatever festivities Sophia had planned for the day, but she was about to discover that she’d been outmaneuvered once again.

“Knock Knock,” Sophia called out in a loud sing-songy voice. Michelle groaned and pulled the blanket back up over her head. “I heard that,” Sophia sang.

“Stupid shifters and their stupid super hearing,” Michelle muttered as she dragged herself out of bed and stomped over to the door like a petulant child. She didn’t invite the woman in, but Sophia pushed her way inside just the same. Michelle crawled back under the covers and turned so that her back was facing “Miss Chipper Sunshine.” None of this deterred Sophia for a moment. She just kept yammering away, even though it was obvious that her audience was less than captivated.

“So this morning at breakfast I held a lottery… which means we already know who your next date is! His name is Eugene and he’ll be here in exactly fifteen minutes so you need to get those sexy buns of yours out of bed and dressed.”

“I’m not going anywhere. I don’t feel well,” she lied lamely.

“Oh, you poor thing. I guess I’ll just have to go fetch my brother so that he can spend the day nursing you back to health, alone…. in your room,” Sophia finished pointedly.

“You don’t play fair,” Michelle complained.

“Sorry, the stakes are too high for me to be nice.” Sophia leaned in close and whispered conspiratorially. “I have a date with one of the single shifters, and my dad’s been too busy breaking up fights and trying to keep all the men from tearing apart his house to notice what I’m up to.”

Michelle sighed and pushed back the covers. “Who am I to stand in the way of you finding true love? One of us should get to be happy, and it obviously isn’t going to be me. Fine,” she muttered. “I’ll go on this stupid date so that you can sneak out on your top secret romantic escapade. Did this EUGENE say where he was taking me?” Michelle asked as she ran a brush through her long hair.

“He’s taking you out on the lake with his canoe.”

“Is this the lake that Grayslake was named for?” she asked betraying the first hint of interest.

“It is indeed. It’s hot out so I’d recommend you keep it simple today.”

“Booty shorts it is then,” Michelle said, stepping into the bathroom to change and brush her teeth. When she stepped out her friend whistled appreciatively.

“You look incredible in those,” Sophia gushed enthusiastically.

“You don’t have to lie to me. I know I have a huge caboose,” Michelle joked good naturedly.

“In case you haven’t noticed, bears tend to like a little junk in the trunk. You are going to make their inner animals go crazy with desire… which means my dad is going to have a busy day breaking up fights. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!” She hopped up and down excitedly and then she noticed what time it was.
