"You do realise we could've been buried naked under everything right?" Melanie asked him as he lay on the couch, just in a pair of shorts, thoroughly amused about what had happened a little while ago...
Still grinning, he answered, " I do know that but just imagine...what if the earthquake had been a little early? I mean... we could have been buried while in the act... that is one way to remain immortal forever...Really—how can you not find that funny? It's like I challenged mother nature herself... and goaded the fates into disturbing us."
Melanie laughed at that, and okay, fine—it was kind of hilarious when you put it that way. However, the laughter quickly died when she was yanked into his lap like she weighed nothing.
"Hey—will you stop manhandling—mmmf!"
