What were we doing in that fountain? And why was it

more important to Damon than what happened afterward in the

treehouse?

Leaving the box and bag, I carried the items with me back

out in the corridor, retracing my steps.

“Winter?” I heard Rika’s voice.

“Hey,” I replied, holding out my hand for her.

“Did you get lost?” she asked, coming over for me to take

her arm.

But I just shook my head. “Just exploring,” I told her.

“Would you take me to the bathroom, please?”

“Are you okay?”

“I hope so,” I joked.

I had no idea how to answer that, and the way my life had

been going, the answer could be different in five minutes. Ask

me later.

Right now, though, I just needed another shower. The

floors in that part of the catacombs were non-renovated and

She walked us both to the spacious bathroom, and I found

the vanity chair and lowered myself into the seat.

“Are they still in bed?” she asked, messing with some

items in the cabinet.

I opened my mouth to tell her ‘yes’, but then the nature of

her question hit me, and I froze.

Are they still in bed? There was more than one bedroom

down here, I was sure. Why would I know if Will was still in

bed?

Unless…

“You heard,” I said, my shoulders slumping a little.

I couldn’t catch a break. I’d never had much of a sex life,

but when I did, everyone knew everything.
