If the photo works it's of Morgan.



"Sky......Sky....Hey, come on get up."

The voice sounded far away at first and he had to focus to bring it closer, then he realized it was Jenny calling to him. Hie eyes felt like sand paper and his mouth was dry, the pounding in his head was nearly deafening and as he pushed up into a sitting position his stomach turned.

"Wow, you look rough," She said

"You don't look so hot either," he pointed out.

Jenny's skin was a scary color of white, her hair a mess that tumbled off her shoulders, dark black rings were beneath her bloodshot eyes and he'd bet any money she'd thrown up this morning.

"We should eat breakfast, that will help."

"Yeah, breakfast sounds good." He agreed.

He stood and followed her into the kitchen, she'd changed since last night and was now wearing black leggins with an oversized gray sweatshirt that he was pretty sure was his over top.

He moved unsteadily to the bar stool near the counter that divided her dining room and kitchen, settling on it and resting his head against his arm to hold it up.

"Do you have...some aspirin or something?"

"Yeah, hang on."

She turned and dug around in her cabinets until she found a bottle then set it on the counter next to a large glass of orange juice that he wasn't sure he could finish.

"Look.....Jenny...."

"Do you want scrambled eggs?" She interrupted.

"Yeah...that's fine."

He watched her bustle around getting things ready but he couldn't concentrate. They had to talk about last night, about what happened. He couldn't just ignore the fact that he'd made out with his step sister in her hallway, he would have done more if his buzz hadn't edged off when it did.

"Jenny....we have to talk about what happened last night."

"Honestly I was so drunk I don't remember a thing," She said with a shrug.

He watched her, she sounded sincere in her words but the way her hand shook when she reached for a bowl said other wise.

"Jen...."

"....I don't remember Sky....any of it....not a single thing and maybe...it's better that way." She said turning to face him.

He stared at her for a minute, she was giving him an easy out and they both knew it. What happened didn't need to be brought up. If they just pretended that neither remembered it they could go back to the way things were, the way they should be.

"Yeah....I don't remember anything either." He said with a fake laugh.

"Okay....so let's just....move on." She said with a sigh.

"Okay."

She forced a smile then turned back to the breakfast she was making and he fell silent. He didn't want Jenny, she was his sister he wasn't supposed to want her but he couldn't deny that he did. When they were younger there had been brief times when he'd feel a stirring in his stomach that resembled want, but she was so innocent, so sweet, so fun, so full of life. He couldn't take that from her, so he'd lose himself in the body of a stranger and squash it down. Now, it had been unleashed if only for a few moments and pushing it back was next to impossible.
