Martin woke up the next morning, the sun beating down on his upper body. He spread his arms out reaching for a warm body and lifted his head when he found no one. The smell of sweetcakes and grilled steak reached his nostrils and he grinned, his stomach responding to the smells. He threw the sheet aside and headed out of the bedroom half awake, letting his nose lead him. He walked down the corridor heedless of the fact that he had no clothes on, his bare feet padding on the cool floor. He reached the dining room which he remembered was adjacent to the eat-in part of the kitchen. He rounded the corner.
