A noise roused Lexi awake. Her right side should have felt warm with Nita pressed against it with an arm and a leg draped over her, but cool air churned by the ceiling fan whispered on her bare skin. The scent of sweat from last night lingered in the air, sparking an involuntary smile. Lexi sent an arm toward the other side of the bed, blindly searching for Nita, but she found nothing but cold cotton. She popped her eyes open, confirming she was disappointingly alone between the sheets.

Lexi turned her head toward the nightstand to check her phone but remembered she’d forgotten it in her parents’ kitchen after the wedding. Being unreachable for eighteen hours was more freeing than she’d thought possible. She’d last touched that damn thing after Noah gave her the pep talk she needed to walk down the aisle with a clear mind. Afterward, the day was about celebrating with family and friends, and the night was about making Nita feel she and Lexi were the only people in the world. She was in no rush to be reachable again, but her job required it.

The distinct sound of the shower door opening signaled Lexi had missed a golden opportunity to pick up where she and Nita had left off last night. But the silver wedding ring reminded her they would have many more chances to start the day with passion. She twisted it, replaying memories of yesterday’s wedding in her head. Except for Shirley Beamer refusing to come and upsetting her mother, the day was perfect. Even the food was unadulterated bliss, especially the roast beef sliders. And having her mother walk Nita down the aisle was special, symbolizing the family they’d already become. But having her father escort her to the altar was the cherry on top. He truly loved her for who she was. She finally had her dad back in every way.

The white noise of Nita’s hairdryer starting meant Nita was already in her clothes, but that didn’t mean Lexi couldn’t coax her out of them. She donned her prosthetic and strode confidently toward the bathroom without bothering to put on anything. Nita wore casual athletic wear. It accentuated every tantalizing curve but covered too much skin while Lexi was still in wedding night mode.

Stepping behind Nita and nuzzling her neck, Lexi wrapped her arms around her wife’s torso and pressed their bodies together. The hairdryer stopped instantly to the sound of giggles. That wasn’t the reaction Lexi had hoped for, but she would take it. Moving a hand closer to a breast, the giggles grew stronger and uncontrollable. Definitely not the reaction she wanted. Now she had to know what had prompted Nita’s laughing fit. One look in the mirror and she knew the answer—the worst bedhead ever. It looked like Lexi had stuck her finger in a wall socket, been tossed around in a tornado, and had half of her head run over by a pickup. Her hair was crazy, even to Lexi’s standards.
