“U to fly with Tay, as I can’t even begin to be convincing I’m a terrible liar, and I’m out of breath becauseseain, wrapped aroundin my ears, and I want…no That’s crazy I don’t want any of those things I’ve just been rather…dry in the sex departed chastity has gone straight tothee I don’t want to think ofmoldy Dusty maybe But moldy?
“Ohfinally sunk in with Taylen “My dong!” he practically screeches “Did I touch you with ?”
“Ummm, no?”
“Gaaaahhhhh! I thought…I uys soet, like dreams But they weren’t about you They were just…I was out cold, and ht you were Jeffers”
“Gah!” Now it’s ?”
“No!” He rushes to the lamp on the end table and flicks it on We both blink at each other like vaht white light He rakes his hands through his hair Four times! Shit is indeed bad because I can’t remember the last tiod! Jeffers juht, and I was cuddled up to hiht he was you Wait, no That’s wrong I didn’tdrea And they were not sexual in nature”
“You’rethis worse”
With a huff, Taylen stalks to his duffel bag, which is upside down on the floor He picks it up, rips out so the shorts he had on to sleep He seems to see the problem but then pulls them on anyway, like a shield
“It’s fine,” I try and tell hiet it We’re adults It doesn’t ht have uh, touched me with your…um…well, parts in your sleep It wasn’t on purpose”
“Where did the bags go?” He looks horrified
“I could have kicked them off”
“No, I probably kicked thee of you in your sleep! Dear god, that’s entirely sick and wrong!”
“That’s not what happened You were fast asleep And I know you would never do that toheld by you” Okay, I didn’t mean to say that last bit I clasp a hand over my mouth while Taylen looks at me with the kind of horrified expression that Jeffers often uses withterrible, and he knows it
“This is messed up!” Taylen huffs as he continually rakes his hair His hair now looks like he just got zapped by a strike of the sa out of here and going back to NOLA” Seeingon his feet, which I suck at doing I’ood problem solver, especially when under stress, but that’s kind of Taylen’s forte “Don’t worry I’ you back to your parents You can coh, we’re going to see ranny because this is all about the curse I know it is”
I have to blink at hiht and blindedhappened I don’t think you can blame this on a cursed brooch God, I can’t believe I’ that Anyway, I think the only one you have to bla to be rescued And for not planning ahead properly and getting two rooms”
“I booked the room!”
“Well, I could have done it Anye can easily bla up the reservation and not having any other rooms I don’t think you can draw a correlation between this and the curse”
“I was cuddling you in e!”
“Well, uh, what happened was just a co about other things Hot woht it was so else, so you can’t blame the curse for that either”
