Chapter 48

Later in the week I wake up in the middle of the night dreaming about the wedding again. There is cold sweat on my forehead and I feel so clammy that if my mother was there she’d accuse me of coming down with something.

I hardly sleep after that, tossing and turning as if the bed has been invaded by a swarm of morris-dancing ants. By the time I drift off, it feels as if I’ve had only a minute’s sleep before I’m woken by Ruby and Samuel knocking at my door. ‘Come in,’ I croak, sounding as if I’ve inadvertently left my tonsils somewhere else.

When the door opens, Ryan is standing there with a tray of scrambled eggs, tomatoes, mushrooms, bacon, toast, a cup of tea and a paper. ‘Oh, Jeez – I forgot something,’ he mutters. He produces something from his back pocket and plonks it on the tray.

It’s a bottle of HP sauce.
