My father’s mansion is beautiful, with every amenity money can buy. I’m
always happy and cozy here in my bed, in this grand suite with my bedroom,
a kitchenette and a sitting area. I have this entire space all to myself.
Last year, I upgraded to a Kluft Royal Sovereign mattress, one of the best
money can buy, which perfectly molds to my body to ensure I get my full
uninterrupted 7.5 hours of sleep per night without any stiffness in my limbs
or cricks in my neck. It’s always at my preferred temperature setting so that
I don’t get a chill in the night. It’s so comfortable and soft, with a weighted
blanket that hugs me tight. I revel in the silken sheets against my face as I
turn over to wake up for the day.
The first thing I’m aware of is that this is not that mattress or those sheets.
Whatever I’m lying on right now is hard as a rock, and the sheets are cold
and smell like cheap perfume.
I go to lift my face up off the pillows and get a murky, underwater feeling.
It seems I have bigger problems than an uncomfortable mattress. Suddenly,
I feel the throbbing, like my head is being slowly squeezed by a vice, let go,
then squeezed again.
“There she is.” I know his voice immediately: Andy. Even though my eyes
are still closed, I easily picture him in my head: the solid physique, the
curve of his bottom lip, and his dark, smoky eyes. There’s something so
reassuring about having this thirsty guy who is far too obvious about
wanting to fuck me sitting next to me here. I sink back into the awful
mattress and crack my eyes open, feeling the pain in my head intensify, but
enjoying the view.
Intensely deep set, rounded eyes and short-cropped curls of brown hair
greet me. The perpetual upturn of Andy’s full upper lip tips up further at my
wince of pain when the light fully hits my eyes, but he tones the gesture of
possible callousness down by smoothing my hair out of my face. It feels
good, but just a split second before leaning into the touch, I remember
where I am and who he is to me, and fall back.
“Heyyy, good morning, sunshine,” he says. “Or, good afternoon, I guess.
You’ve been out for twelve hours. Do you remember what happened?”
A doctor comes in to take my vitals as I try to find my voice and process all
the words that Andy just said. It feels like he’s talking so fast.
I answer groggily, my hoarse voice filled with sleep and pain. “Something
bad,” I say, trying to get my lips to work after what must have been a long
night.
Andy nods, holding out a cup of water. “You got a bump on the head. A big
one, like, the size of a fucking golf ball. But don’t worry, we’re at the
hospital. Your father is down the hall. He’s out of the ICU.”
