I set the alarm on my iPhone to go off at six-thirty since Jacob said Billy usually got up around seven out of habit and we wanted to make sure I was back in the correct bed. Billy mentioned something about checking in to see if we were up yet at seven, so I had to prepare for that. I had to make this charade believable.

I kissed Jacob once he found my top and quickly dressed and sped to the room where Billy expected to find me. I climbed in bed and closed my eyes, thinking about the past night. We both happened to randomly wake up around one o'clock this morning and spent a good half hour in a passionate embrace. I had to think about it all now so I'm not tempted to later around my father.

I stayed there "asleep" until seven, when, as if on cue, Billy opened the door and peeked in.

"Nessie? You awake?" he asked quietly, entering the room. I moaned in reply. "It's seven o'clock. Everyone will be here shortly after eight to leave." I moaned again and put the pillow over my head. "I made breakfast and Jacob will eat it all if you don't get up."

"Fine," I grumbled and swung my legs over the bed. That's when the bacon, eggs, and sausage aroma hit me. It was fabulous.

The one thing more fabulous? Billy brought the charade!

I followed him out to the kitchen table (still acting like I only just woke up), and fixed myself a plateful of bacon, eggs, sausage, hash browns, and strudel. As soon as I sat down Jacob entered the room and as soon as I noticed Billy had his back to me I gave Jacob a wink and a smile. He smiled back, knowing now that Billy was oblivious to the actual sleeping arrangements of last night.

"Oh, and if you two think you outsmarted me, you have another thing coming. And, no, Nessie. I won't tell your parents."

Damnit. I thought it was too easy…

"And, no, Nessie. I won't tell your parents."

Damnit! How'd he find out? I glanced at Nessie and could tell she was thinking the exact same thing.

"I was up and saw the spare room's door was cracked open. I peered in on an empty bed and seeing that the bathroom was empty…" his voice trailed off, looking at us.
