The bathroom door opened and Lex stepped out. "I'm awake," Amanda said quietly.

Lex sat on the edge of the bed. "Good morning. I hope I didn't wake you."

"No, not at all." Amanda had trouble meeting Lex's eyes. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to crash here. I had another bad dream and couldn't sleep, so I came in here, but you were gone." She gave Lex a questioning glance. "Where were you?"

"I had a bout of insomnia, so I went down to the barn."

"Oh. Anyway, I guess I conked out waiting for you. Didn't mean to take over your bed like this."

Lex patted Amanda on the leg. "Hey, no problem. I was so tired when I came in, I just took a quick shower and fell into bed."

Amanda covered the hand on her leg with one of her own. "What time did you get in? I know it was pretty late when I wandered in here."

Lex stood up. "It wasn't that late. Probably right after you came in." She pulled on Amanda's hand. "Come on. Why don't you get up and dress, and I'll meet you downstairs for breakfast."

Amanda went up on her knees on the edge of the bed. She linked her hands behind Lex's neck and pulled her close. "I've got a better idea."

Lex quirked an eyebrow, but didn't complain as Amanda took her time exploring her mouth. She found her hands drifting to Amanda's hips, pulling her closer with one hand while the other moved down to find the hem of Amanda's nightshirt.

"Ahem."

They broke apart quickly, each shooting an embarrassed look at the housekeeper who stood in the doorway with her arms crossed. Lex found her voice first. "Good morning, Martha."

"Obviously," the heavyset woman retorted, causing Amanda's blush to deepen.

"It's, umm, not what it looks like, exactly," Amanda stammered as she tried to explain.

"Right." Martha turned to leave. "You were just checking to make sure that Lexie had no toothpaste residue in her mouth while Lexie was making sure that your nightshirt still fit." She paused for a few seconds while she enjoyed their reaction. "I just wanted to let you know breakfast is ready. I'm sure you've both worked up an appetite." She shook her head, leaving the room and closing the door behind her. Then she leaned against the wall and tried to keep from bursting into laughter at the "deer in the headlights" look that both girls had given her.

Amanda fell back on the bed laughing. "Oh, God. She's not going to let us live this down, is she?"

Lex put her hands on her hips, never feeling more cheerful. "Nope." She once again offered Amanda a hand. "Come on, let's go face the music." Then, wondering if Amanda was feeling any discomfort, she asked, "Does that bother you?"

Amanda stood up, wrapped an arm around Lex's waist and, with a show of bravado that she didn't quite feel, said, "Nope. And I hope it doesn't bother Martha too much either, because I'm not planning on stopping anytime soon.
