Mating Season: Body Heat

Jody's head moved many times due to severe drowsiness. She didn't know what time it was, but she had been staring at Zev for a long time. She woke up, almost sliding off the chair. Jody clutched the armrest hard and then spun around. She almost went down the cliff in her dream.

Jody glanced at Zev. He noticed that her body was trembling as if she were cold. Jody turned back in the chair and hurried to the bed. She touched Zev's forehead and neck, feeling his temperature too high. Zev was also wet with sweat; there were beads of sweat on his face, but his body shook.

"Zev..." Jody whispered.

His eyes were still closed, and his lips were trembling. Jody didn't know what to do; she was confused and tried several times to leave the room to wake up the two grown-ups, but she was embarrassed by the trouble they had caused.

"Damn it, I'm sorry, Zev, but I have to kiss you, and you can't stop me this time."
