Chapter 153: This Changes Everything, Doesn't It?

Stretching, Hailey felt the kink in her neck ache as she pulled her arms above her head. She'd taken a sleeping pill to fall asleep last night. The thought of having a man in her apartment had her keyed up. It didn't matter that she knew rationally in her heart Wes would never do anything to hurt her. Once the pill took effect, she was out, and she hadn't moved, thus the kink in her neck. Served her right, she supposed.

Sitting up she glanced at the clock and realized she had a little time before she needed to be out and presentable. Wes was an early riser at school and during work, but if he didn't have to be, he liked to sleep. At least he used to be that way. If nothing had changed, Hailey figured she still had another hour before he'd even bother getting up.
