The following morning, I awoke in bed with Oliver beside me. I couldn’t for the life of me remember how we’d got there and I didn’t much care. There was a slight throbbing in my head to take care of, so I crawled out of bed and staggered into the en suite bathroom. I was busting for a leak, but now I was moving about, my head was pounding like a jackhammer. I pulled open the top drawer of the vanity and rummaged about for some headache tablets. There were four left. I was tempted to take the lot, but ended up taking only two. I had no doubt Oliver would be needing the others.
