What Comes Around
Chapter 7
I blinked, vaguely remembering a conversation about how the people at the mansion were doing. As I opened my eyes I expected to have a splitting headache, lots of pain. Surprisingly there wasn't anything. The egg… I stared at what I could see of the ceiling in my bedroom and blinked. "Wha' da hell…?"
I never remembered coming into the bedroom and laying on the bed. I remembered sitting on the floor while Alura talked and sat on the couch behind me. I remembered her falling asleep and me carrying her into the bedroom, putting her under the blankets. I remembered walking back into the main room of the apartment and looking at the couch, but that was it. What had I done in between then and now?
As I woke up a little I felt my right arm tingling, it had fallen asleep. I looked over and frowned, why was it asleep?
My eyes opened wide as I saw Alura resting her head on my shoulder, her hand on my chest. She was obviously asleep. What did I do after that egg thing last night?
I looked up at the ceiling, my mind trying to remember. At this point I think I should tell you, I was actually kind of worried. I had a sudden thought and reached my free hand down to my waist. I was still wearing my pants, and my belt. That's when I noticed she had her tank top on at least. I breathed a sigh of relief and she shifted slightly in her sleep. How was I going to get out of this one?
As I lay there trying to figure out how to get her to turn over so I could slide out of the bed and get to the couch her eyes flickered open ad she blinked a few times. "Remmy?" She asked, her face turning bright red, "What…. Why are you in here too?"
I blinked, "Ah was jus' askin' myself tha' same question…" I said swallowing and pulling away from her, standing up and walking to the door. It was only five am according to the digital clock across the room. "Sorry." I said, walking out and laying on the couch. As I lay there one thought crossed my mind, I needed a cold shower.
