Piper lay beside me, her breathing labored to the point I was worried she might actually pass out from lack of oxygen.
"You okay?" I glanced at her.

"Hmm, well, you definitely have a lot of naughty little perks, don't you?" She rolled over and rested her head on my chest.
"And I've been going easy on you." I draped my arm around her.
