“You wouldn’t answer the door so…” She shrugs.
“So, you decided to break in?”
“It’s not breaking in if the window wasn’t locked.”
“The window was locked.”
“Oops.”
“Are you always this crazy?”
“Yes, she is,” Harmony answers from the doorway.
“How did you get in?”
“Your backdoor was unlocked.”
I shake my head. “No, it wasn’t.”
I live alone. I know I made sure all the doors and windows were locked before I went to bed. This may be Winter Falls where random crime is pretty much non-existent, but I wasn’t feeling very safe after the whole Murray incident.
Eden walks into the room. “Why aren’t you dressed yet?”
“Is the entire town in my house?”
“Nope. Just us,” Soleil says as she joins us.
“Good to know. Now, please leave. I’m sleeping.”
“Sleeping?” Moon snorts. “More like having a pity party.”
“I’m allowed to have a pity party. It’s Christmas Day and I have no family to spend it with.”
Eden rolls her eyes. “Exaggerate much?”
“What are we? Chopped liver?” Harmony asks.
Soleil groans. “Don’t mention liver. The idea…” She feigns gagging.
“Talking time is over.” Moon shackles my wrist and pulls until I’m forced to sit up or fight her. Since she’s the queen of revenge pranks, I sit up. I don’t want to come home to discover a fishy smell in my house that I can’t get rid of.
“Why are you here? What’s happening?”
“Christmas brunch!”
My stomach rumbles in response to Moon’s announcement, but I’m not ready to stop fighting them.
“I’m not going to Christmas bunch with you. The Bragg brothers will be there and the last person in the world I want to see today is Damon the jerk Bragg.”
“I thought we settled on Damon the heartbreaker Bragg.”
“Personally, I preferred Damon the idiot.”
“Or Damon the ass.”
I hold up my palm. “If I agree with all of the name calling, will you go away?”
Soleil sits on the bed next to me and pats my hand. “You’re cute. You have no idea how tenacious we can be.”
