I woke to the feeling of sandpaper running across my nose. Bear had managed to climb up the bedspread and was eager for me to get up.

“That, my friend, hurts.” I pushed him under the covers before he could lick my face again because cat tongues weren’t made for sensitive facial skin.

My head was pounding from the miniature marching band trapped inside my skull, and every muscle from my thighs to my waist ached as I swung my legs over the side of the bed. “Jesus, Bear. What did we do last night? Run a damn marathon?”

Either I was coming down with the flu, or I had a monster hangover. I don’t know which was worse.

One of Leda’s dresses was draped over the chair, and a pair of amazing shoes sat on the floor next to it. Leda must have left them. The black bra and panties tossed in the corner were a little more difficult to explain

“Did I go out last night?” I mumbled.

The smell of bacon and eggs floating down the hallway perked me up. At that moment, I couldn’t think of anything I wanted more than one of Sophia’s breakfast spreads and a very large cup of coffee. For the first time, I actually considered blowing off work. But it was inventory week so I didn’t dare. At least I had the late shift, which gave me all morning to recover from whatever it was making me feel like hell.

I took a long shower, and then got dressed and followed the smell to the kitchen. I grabbed a bagel from the counter before joining Sophia at the stove. A pot of tomato sauce sat on the back burner. “I love your sauces, Sophia, but I’m not putting that on my eggs.”

She took the pan of bacon off the burner and turned to look at me. Her hand went to that place on her hip that usually meant she was about to give me some Italian momma tongue, but before she could speak, her eyes moved over my shoulder to her approaching employer.

Greer walked into the kitchen and stopped when he saw me standing at the stove. He and Sophia glanced at each other and had one of those silent conversations I was never privy to.

“What?” I looked back and forth between the two of them, and then glanced down at my T-shirt to see if something was out of place. By the way they were both gawking at me, I figured I’d either done or said something the night before that I needed desperately to remember.

Sophia’s eyes went sideways to the cold sauce on the stove, and then back to mine. Her brow raised, and I could tell by her expression that she wasn’t the one who left it there. “Don’t look at me,” I shrugged, glancing at Greer, wondering if he was a closet cook.

Someone had to break the ice, so I grabbed a plate and piled it full of bacon and eggs and headed for the dining room.
