When I opened my eyes once again, it was morning time. Slowly, I rose from the couch, rubbing my neck as it ached from my bad sleeping posture that resulted from me sleeping on the couch. I rubbed my eyes and yawned, looking over at the large bed in the room. The bed sheet wasn't neatly done and Luna was no where to be found, which led me to believe that she must've already woke up and left the room.

I glanced over at the coffee table where we were at yesterday night. On the table top, the two wine glasses and shot glasses were still where we had left them. In addition, the bottles of alcohol were still out as well.  

I sighed as I felt a sharp pain in my head, feeling somewhat nauseous. I felt a decline in appetite and in general, I didn't feel as if my body was in its best condition. This I attributed to the alcohol I drank last night. I shook my head in order to try and shake off the disgusting feeling I had and walked over to the bathroom in hopes that I could wash my face and freshen up.

I entered the bathroom, and oddly enough, the lights were on. This bathroom was way larger than the one in my room, which when combined with how spacious the hotel room was, led me to believe that this room must be a tier or two higher than the one I lived in. Anyways, I approached the sink and stared at myself in the mirror. I wasn't surprised to see how pale my face was, but I know that after a bit, I should be able to recover.

I washed my face with cold water in order to refresh myself. The cold droplets of water splashed against my face, sending a sudden shock through my body. However, that is what I wanted since the shock was able to revitalize every part of my body, awakening me up truly for the first time.

With water still dripping down on my face, I realized that there was actually the sound of water splashing nearby me. I looked to my right and discovered that the door leading into the shower and bathing room was opened, and peering inside, I saw that there was plenty of water vapor. Soon, the water vapor parted slightly, allowing me to discover that someone was actually using the walk-in shower.

I couldn't move my eyes away from the view as my heart was captivated by her. I could feel my heart rapidly pounding in my chest and my face gradually becoming warmer as more and more blood rushed through my body. After a bit, her eyes glanced over in my direction, and the two of us made eye contact. Luna didn't say anything out of shock, but I immediately exited the bathroom and closed the door behind me.

I gasped for air as I leaned against the closed bathroom. My face was still hot and red, but because of that, I was brought to attention the numerous droplets of water that was still on my damp face as they slowly crawled and made their way down due to gravity. My heart continued to pound in my chest, causing the bumping noise to echo in my ear that was also quite warm from blood. I began breathing deeply, trying to use breathing to restrain myself. Gradually, my heart rate returned to normal as every physical reaction calmed down for me.

After about ten minutes, the bathroom door opened once again, and Luna emerged from it with a simple towel around her body once again. When she saw me, there was a smile on her face, but I no longer felt as if she was going to try what she did yesterday. Instead, she calmly walked over to me, throwing her arms around me as she rested her head in my chest.
