I was sound asleep when she started prodding me.
“Hey,” she said quietly, then “Hey!”
I opened by eyes to notice it was still a bit dark outside.
“What? What’s going on?”
“Happy Easter! Want to go to church with me?”
I turned to her and saw she had a cute little yellow dress on.
“How about we stay in bed?” I asked with one eyebrow raised.
“I said church! How can you reply with sex?”
I rolled back over. “No church for me. You should know that by now.”
She sighed and started playing with my hair.
I pretended to be asleep.
