Skoldjr was woken by the chink of light hitting him squarely in his right eyeball; burning its way through the protective eyelid that tried to shield the slumbering eyeball within with futile attempts. His head was filled with light and his eyes opened in a sluggish manner and...he felt naked...
He trailed his hand downwards with a weary pace...
Yes, he was naked...
His hand travelled a bit further and found the beginning of the cotton sheet which he had either kicked down or had been pulled down in his sleep and pulled it up to his waist; rolling back over and then noticing a warmth in the sheets beside him.
There was a body there. A body with soft curves and warm, tanned flesh.
Oh yes, now he remembered...kind of...not really...
The body stirred and Skoldjr could barely focus on the sinuous movement, his hangover and late night starting to kick in and abuse his skull; taking it in turns to beat on his brain like they were bullies ganging up on him and seeking their revenge.
His soft groan caused the sneaking woman to turn around and smile at him, caressing his cheek with a warm, slim hand.
Too much heat...too warm....uncomfortable...
But then he asked probably the worst thing he could of asked:
"Did we 'sleep' together last night?"
Her sweet features contorted with fury and indignity as the weary, slightly confused Skoldjr had yet to catch up with what he had said to offend her. He saw her seethe and throw profanties at him as she shot up, out of the large bed and tried snatching the cover up with her to cover her decency. Skoldjr let her, his brain to numbed to actually tell his hands to snatch hold of the cover before it was whipped off his defenseless body.
She threw a pillow at his face (where it impacted with a dull thud) in her rage and stomped off to the corner to grap hold of a pair of boots and start to tug them with savage pulls...before;
"Those are my boots..."
She stopped in deadly stillness, one foot covered in a large, oversized boot for her own foot as she hated to realize and admit her mistake to this handsome drunkard who hadn't even remembered her, never mind her name...
Pulling the boot off, she threw that one at him, which hit him in the chest, and then its twin, with whom he had enough sense to block with the pillow that was an earlier, less painful projectile.
The Imperial left the room with heavy, loud stomps and he could hear her cursing his name down the stairs and even out of the tavern where a rock was suddenly hurled through the window and slammed into the wall at the far side of the room.
Skoldjr simply waited for the buzzing to stop, (ducking the rock as it flew overhead), before stumbling out of bed, pulling on a pair of pants and ambling downstairs to get some food in his belly and nurse his aching head.
He had a feeling that he had made a little too merry last night...
