Gabriel woke up to sunshine on his face, the press of Grace's head on his shoulder, and a familiar, long-absent feeling between his legs. Slipping a hand beneath the covers for reassurance, he verified that his recovery was, in fact, complete. A wide grin spread across his face.
Rolling slightly, pressing Grace's body gently into the bed, he whispered into her ear, "Gracie, wake up."
She opened her eyes for a brief moment before gravity forced them closed again. "Huh?"
"I've got a surprise for you."
"Wha'? Oh…." Her eyes flew open. "Oh!"
Gabriel's sultry laugh carried out the window, into the golden sunrise.
