I wake in a state of confusion. Insomnia is my unwelcome friend, one that seems to have left me for the night. I don’t think I moved a muscle once I closed my eyes. My body, not used to the depth of rest I just experienced, is left in a haze until I take a deep breath.

It smells like him.

I open my eyes, and, sure enough, I am entangled in sheets that are not my own. I pull the covers back and look around, surprised that I am alone.

The coral-hued summer sun is glaring in the window, telling me I must have slept later than I planned to. Has he left? Would he just leave me here?

I hear a clang coming from the attached “Jack and Jill” bathroom, and feel a sense of relief that he didn’t up and leave me in the middle of the night, though I know the thought is irrational – I’m in his bed.

I get up and search for my clothes, but only find my green lace thong. Beside it is the button-down shirt he wore for dinner, the dinner that is still sitting politely on the dining room table. I slip the shirt over my head, and it falls to my thighs like a thin blanket. I bring the sleeves to my nose and take in a deep breath of him. I smile at the memory of last night and feel an almost giggly pang in my belly at the idea that I was actually in his bed again.

The sound of the shower turning off comes from the bathroom, and I tap lightly on the door, which has been left ajar. He doesn’t seem surprised when I walk in. He wraps the towel around his waist and smirks at my attire.

“Well, you just gave me a reason not to wash that shirt again.”

I blush as I run a hand through my hair, hoping that it’s somewhat behaving itself this morning.

He turns to shut the shower door, and I see the deep red lines my nails left on his back last night in the heat of passion. I gasp and reach out to touch them.

“Does it hurt?”

He turns and smiles. “Not as good as when you gave them to me.”

I return the crooked grin.

“How did you sleep?” he asks as he wipes the foggy mirror with the palm of his hand.

“Actually,” I say, “really good.”

“You always did sleep well when we’re together. Better than when you were alone.”

I hate that he remembers that.

He pulls out his razor from his travel bag. “I did, too,” he says without looking at me.

I smile, relieved he can’t see me in the steamy mirror. He takes out his shaving cream and gives it a good shake before popping the top. I step forward and hold out my hand.

“Let me,” I say brazenly.

He cocks a brow. “I think I remember the last time I let you shave me, you nicked me.”

“Oh, don’t be a baby,” I say, taking the razor from him.
