Chapter Four

"David are you coming?"

"I-In a minute"

"Ok. I'll be in bed"

"Ok" he said, his voice cracking

She went to the bedroom and climbed into bed.

David stayed in the living room staring blankly at the wall.

Five minutes passed.

"David?"

"HUH?"

She came out of the bedroom, having put on a robe.

She sat beside him. "Are you ok?"

He looked at her, her eyes suddenly tearing. "I-I can't Wendy. I just realized what an ass I've been." He said.

"Showing up drunk?" she said.

"And apparently with my pants on backwards."

'David I forgave the indiscretions. "she said

"What about throwing up just before when were about to kiss. That is unforgivable!"

She sighed. "Stop beating yourself up David. You have had bad luck with girls but you have me NOW." She said.

"After how long and how many insults?"

Wendy knew she had to jumpstart his hormones. She stood up and removed her robe and pulled David up by the collar and kissed him very hard. She felt his reaction and they made a beeline for the bedroom.

The next day a sober and naked David Hodges woke up with a pounding headache. He looked over at the sleeping woman beside him. "Wendy?" he said and shook her.

"MMM?"

"Wendy!"

"Hodges are you wanting more?" she asked.

"What the hell happened last night?" he asked as he sat up and held his head. "Did we…?"

She nodded. "Oh yeah we did."

He looked a little embarrassed.

"To answer that question… yes it was good."

He smiled. "Glad you thought so."

Wendy then told him what happened before.

"I am so sorry Wendy. I am so embarrassed about everything."

"Should we blame Henry and Archie?" she asked.

"Ugh don't mention them – man they can drink!"

"Bet they won't be feeling any pain!" Wendy said and Hodges laughed.
