She pushed herself up in bed and stared toward the door squinting at the blurry person who interrupted her beauty sleep.

As she climbed out of bed, Mateo strode to her closet, jerked the door open and disappeared inside.
"Hey!" she yelped, wobbling to her feet and taking a couple of steps after him.
