#Chapter34

Whose birthday, is it? Who’s on first? Who’s on second?

I woke up, and something felt off, but I couldn’t quite put my finger on it. I looked at Scarlett, and she was sleeping next to me. Everything seemed fine. It must not be that important, so I pushed it out of my mind. I rolled over and placed kisses on her, and she opened her eyes, then looked at me. /"Morning,/" Scarlett yawned.

/"Morning,/" I said, kissing her.

/"Happy April 1,/" Scarlett said to me, then it hit me.

I sat up and scrambled out of bed. /"Shit!/"

She sat up, looking a bit confused, /"What’s going on, Matt?/"

/"It’s April 1,/" I answered.

/"Yeah, so?/" She asked me.

/"It’s April Fool’s Day and Elijah’s favorite day of the year,/" I said, jumping into some pants and tossing on a shirt. Her eyes widened, and she dressed.

/"Why didn’t you tell me? We could have got a hotel room,/" Scarlett reminded me.
