The next morning, I awoke with a pounding head full of regrets. Groaning, I got up from my comfortable bed and drank the cup full of water I'd left by my bedside last night. Gasping at the quick intake of liquid into my body, I stumbled to the kitchen and started making a pot of coffee.

Strong coffee. I was going to need it.

After eating my breakfast and downing far more than the recommended dosage of aspirin, I laid down on the couch with a cold pack on my forehead to nurse my hangover headache. While trying not to move around too much and focusing on keeping my breakfast down, I thought about last night's events.

"Fuck, I really kissed him..." I realized, laughing nervously at the memory. That was definitely going to result in some repercussions. Good or bad repercussions? I had yet to find out.

My phone dinged and with great caution, I checked my messages.

Grinning like a crazy person, I sat up and quickly replied to his message

Wilbur, probably the most attractive person I've met in my 22 years of life, was having subconscious thoughts of ME resulting in a succession of images, ideas, emotions, and sensations that occur involuntarily in the mind during the stage of unconscious rest known as REM sleep?? Unless I was still dreaming, this was like Christmas come early.
