Barid had successfully trapped himself in the twisted sheets with all the tossing and turning he had been doing. This was ridiculous. Was one full nights sleep to much to ask? Of course it was. Especially when you had a saucy bitch like Samantha Byrne right down the fucking hallway.

What was he thinking? Sam would rather gut him like a fish than be tangled in his sheets. But the images. That dark chocolate hair of hers, splayed out against his pillow. Long, enticing moans escaping her lips instead of sharp pointed jabs at his ego. Her dark skin contrasting greatly with the pale white of his sheets as she arched needful- Fuck. No. He had to stop. Right now. It was not going to happen. Not even a possibility.

But a man could dream, yes? And god knew she'd be a damn good lay. With as sparky of an attitude as hers, she had to be ferocious in the sac.

But it was not just that. There was something else there. Not that he would ever admit it to anyone but himself. But he had some weird kind of attachment to the forked tongue Kashkurian. He just voiced it with pointed insults at her few feminine characteristics. Like the fact that the bitch never shut up. Always fucking nagging..

Cole had tapped in on it once. Noticing as Barid stared a little to long at the dark skinned private, his friend gave him a rough slug un the am and then whispered something about how Barid better make him best man when the time came. This had only infuriated Damon.

At this rate, he was never going to get any sleep. His mind was in overdrive and it was not going to slow down any time soon. Maybe he could find something to distract himself in the rec hall.

Rolling on to his side, he placed his bare feet on the cold metal floor and convinced himself to rise from the bed.

Pulling on a pair of slip ons, he made his way towards the door and reached for the handle. Damn, he hoped this would help. He had to stop mulling over these things.

Opening the door, he felt something considerably smaller fall slap into his chest. A small "umph" gave away it's holder. Samantha Byrne.
