Chapter 14

‡

“Oww,” Deanna mumbled as she lifted her hand to her forehead like she was giving a military-style salute in an attempt to block the harsh rays of the sun streaming through her sunglasses.

It seemed like a setting in her body had been switched to slow motion. Her entire being ached, and her stomach was rolling like it was Tina Turner on a river. The pounding in her head wasn’t helping her think straight, and to top everything off, her mouth tasted like she’d been feasting on cotton balls despite the four bottles of water she’d drunk in the last hour. The only thing that felt fuzzier than her mouth was her mind.

Her destination was less than a block away, yet she was having serious doubts as to whether or not she was going to make it. When she’d discovered that she had no coffee in her house, she’d made the brilliant decision to venture out to acquire some. Not completely convinced that she wasn’t still a tad bit under the influence of the vino she’d consumed last night, she had determined that it was better to walk the four blocks to the coffee shop instead of driving.

Now, twenty minutes later, she was wholeheartedly regretting that decision.

“Hey there! Congrats again!” Sue Ann shouted from her open car window as she honked her horn, presumably on her way to the café.

Deanna raised her hand and flinched at the loud noise that had turned the volume of her headache from a five to an almost unbearable ten. “Thanks.”

Her foggy mind felt like it had been filled with cement that had hardened overnight. Trying to figure out why Sue Ann was congratulating her, she attempted to put the pieces of last night together and complete the jigsaw puzzle. All she could come up with were snippets. Dinner was the last thing she remembered clearly. Everything after that was hazy and choppy.

She’d danced with Nikki and Amy. That she was sure of. The last clear memory she had on the dance floor was Nikki nicknaming the trio The Three Dancing Amigos. Deanna remembered that because Amy had corrected her sister that technically it would be “amigas” because they were female. Nikki had asked her if she could just, for one night, not be a teacher, and Amy had not seemed offended at all. She’d simply said no before explaining that she couldn’t shut it off.

Deanna remembered feeling a twinge of envy because, growing up, she’d always wanted sisters. Siblings in general, but specifically sisters. As a kid, she’d always thought that having a sister was like having a built-in best friend. Seeing Nikki and Amy together had brought back that desire in full force.

Shaking off that memory as she opened the door to Brewed Awakenings, Deanna tried to remember what had happened after the dancing. Then a sensation flashed through her body—being pressed against Lucky, his breath on her neck, and his hand resting on her bare back as his thumb made lazy circles at the base of her spine.
