It took what felt like forever for me to pull myself out of bed after my conversation with Vinny. There was so much that had to be done, and I was so afraid of messing it up. I was paralyzed with indecision for a while.
I was able to shake myself out of it when I thought about how safe and warm I had been in Tallon’s arms just hours ago. I wanted that again, and I was going to make sure that I got it.
Drunkenly passing out on his chest was not going to be my last moment alone with Tallon.
I got up and took a hot shower. The water helped to wake me up a little and made me feel refreshed. Once I was dressed, I felt a little more prepared to deal with this.
I had spent the night crying, but now it was time to get to work. Sitting in bed all day feeling bad for myself wasn’t going to get Tallon home.
The more I thought about the situation, the angrier I was and the more I wanted to get my revenge on whoever was responsible.
