We had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend with family and friends, and I was so glad that the beach house was large enough to accommodate everyone who wanted to stay. My parents, Dana and baby James, Mr. Marshall, John and Felicia, and the Thorpes. Of course, Candace was still with us, so it was a full house.

When Sunday night came and it was time for everyone to leave, I felt sad, because I was finally starting to feel good for a change.

On Monday morning, when I woke up, I actually felt only sleepy and not exhausted. I sent little mental feelers down into my body to check if I needed to run to the bathroom for more than just a pee but thankfully, nothing. No nausea.

A stab of excitement went through me, and I felt butterflies in my stomach where once I had only felt a need to heave.

I sat up in bed and waited for something to hit me -- dizziness, nausea, exhaustion -- but nothing.

I slipped out of bed and had a pee, then brushed my teeth, which was my usual routine. Then, I went back to bed and snuck in beside a sleeping Luke, his head under a pillow.

"How are you?" he asked, his voice muffled from the pillow. He pulled it up a bit so I could see his face and opened his eyes.

I smiled. "So far, so good."

He threw the pillow off and rolled over, pulling me into his arms. "Seriously? No nausea? No dry heaving?"

"Nope, nope."

"Oh, thank God."

I held up my hand. "Don't get too excited just yet. There's still a chance that it'll strike when I get up."

He kissed the end of my nose. "You're such a party-pooper."

Then, he jumped out of bed and ran to the bathroom for his morning pee and to brush his teeth so we could kiss for real.

When he came back, he jumped back into bed beside me like an eager beaver.

"Let's hope it sticks. It would be great if you were over it and could finish your paper this week, hand it in next week, and we could fly out to Bora Bora on next weekend. We could catch a plane on the 13th and be there for the next two weeks. How does that sound?"

"Shh," I said and held a finger up to his lips. "Don't jinx it. Let's wait and see how the rest of today goes, okay?"

He exhaled. "Okay."

We snuggled like that for about half an hour and of course, he couldn't help but get aroused by the feel of my body next to his. We hadn't had actual sex for weeks and other than my occasional helping him out with his not-so-little problem as I liked to call it, we were both almost celibate. I wanted to give him what he needed but I'd felt so sick for so long, that all I ever wanted to do when I felt somewhat less nauseated was to sleep.

He didn't press me for any help, but instead rolled out of bed and said he was going to have a shower.
