The fact that my head is one big pain keeps me from taking my head out from under the covers. I know as soon as I do, the light is going to shoot a laser beam of hell through my sensitive skull. I’m vaguely aware of the smell of fried poultry, and it turns my stomach. Opening one eye, I see that I’m cuddled up to a giant turkey leg. Why was the turkey leg back in bed with me? I’m reasonably certain I left it in the kitchen right before I . . .

I groan as the memories come flooding back. The mead, the renaissance, and trying to seduce Travis. Sam standing me up. Of course, I’d made sure to grab the turkey leg, in order to eat my feelings. Shit, I kissed him.

Oh no! That’s the worst part. Why did I do that? What did I tell him?

It’s fuzzy at best, but I’m pretty sure I brought up the past. As I move to get up, another sharp pain shoots through my body and I see white light behind my eyes. For a brief moment, I’m convinced that the white light is there because I’ve died. Why didn’t anyone warn me about the effects of mead?

No, that’s not fair to the mead. I know what alcohol does to you. Wasn’t I just hungover, or was that weeks ago? I realize all my days are running together. Hopefully, it’s just because my brain is still sloshing around in the intoxicating liquid. If I can get up and take a shower, maybe I’ll feel better.

I groan and roll over onto my back. I need to get up and apologize for being a horrible drunk. However, as I contemplate getting out of bed, my head thunders a warning, telling me that I’d best sleep some more of this nasty hangover off.

The room is stifling, and it’s only made worse because I’m still in my dress. The corset is pushing into my skin, and I reach down to try and loosen it a bit. My braids have come unpinned and hang in my face. I need to get up and take it off, but that requires more effort and energy than I currently have. So, I hike up the skirts allowing air to flow against my skin and loosen the top as much as possible. I immediately fall back into a restless sleep.

What feels like hours later, I roll out of bed and rush into the bathroom. I pee for ten years and then turn the shower on. It isn’t easy to get out of the costume, and I can’t believe I slept in it. There are permanent lines in my sides and underneath my breasts. My whole body hurts and my arms are asleep from being slept on. Sitting on the bottom of the shower, I try to replay exactly what I said to Travis. I remember the kiss. It was phenomenal. He hadn’t changed in the long years since his lips had been on mine.
