Felix had completely underestimated how much trouble Bella could cause.

She hardly slept all night, alternating between bouts of vomiting and rambling incoherently. Every time she quieted down, it wasn’t long before she started throwing up again.

He spent the entire night taking care of her, only managing to catch a brief nap at the edge of the bed as dawn approached.

Bella, suffering from a hangover, woke up not long after. The pounding in her head was a stark reminder of how much she’d had to drink the night before.

As she took in her unfamiliar surroundings and the sight of a tired Felix asleep by the bed, her headache intensified. How had she ended up at Felix’s place?

Fragments of the previous night’s memories swirled in her mind, and she cursed herself as she checked her phone’s call log. It was then that she realized she had indeed called Felix.
