I wake to darkness. The champagne lingers in my body, and I do not know how long I have been asleep. Maybe I have been asleep for hours, and Joshua has ushered out the guests and turned out the lights. There is a heaviness across my eyes, something pressing against the skin. Gently, comfortably, but without any extra give at all.
