“Oh, he likes to pierce you, all right,”Grace said.

“Gracie, behave,” Addison said.

“That still doesn’t explain why you’re sleepingwith him now. You got a tattoo, your nipples pierced, and you’re sleeping withmy brother’s best friend – the town’s,” Kira made air quotes with her fingers, “‘badboy’. Who are you and what have you done with Addison?”

“Not nipples.Nipple,” Addison said.“I only have one pierced.”

“But you’re gonna get Preacher to pierce yourother one?” Kira said.

“Yeah, probably.”

Kira turned to Grace. “This is anInvasionof the Body Snatcherssituation, right?”

Grace studied Addison. “Tell us everything,honey. Start from the beginning.”

“Okay, so if you got into a fight onTuesday and agreed to end the lessons,” Grace said half an hour later, “why washe in your bed last night?”

Addison sipped at her second cup ofcoffee. “He had a migraine. He showed up at my door yesterday afternoon.”

“He knew you had experience with migrainesbecause of your mom?” Kira said.

“He didn’t know about my mom,” Addisonsaid. “He texted Gideon and said he was on his way – I guess he usually stayswith Gideon when he has a migraine – but he ended up at my house.”

“That’s kind of sweet. He wanted to bewith you when he wasn’t feeling well,” Kira said.

Addison shook her head. “No, he wantedsex.”

Kira stared at her. “When he had amigraine?”

“Yeah. Sometimes a migraine can be stopped,or the pain is eased a little, with an orgasm.”

“You’re kidding me.”

“I’m not,” Addison said. “It’s the rush ofendorphins.”

“So, you fucked his migraine away?” Kirasaid with a grin. “I wish I could have been there for the conversation whenPreacher came in.”

She puffed out her chest and mimickedPreacher’s deep voice. “Hey, Sunshine. I got me a big bad migraine so whydon’t you ride my dick and make it all better.”

“It wasn’t like that. When he first gothere, he was in a lot of pain and could hardly walk. I barely got him into bedbefore he was vomiting.”

“Poor Preacher,” Kira said.

“And he didn’t ask me for sex,” Addison said.“I was the one who asked him if an orgasm would help – it doesn’t work for everyone.He said yes but I knew he was in too much pain to have sex so I, uh, gave him ablowjob.”

“Aren’t you a sweetheart,” Kira said.

“Wait – so he didn’t ask you to make himcome?” Grace said.

“No.”

“So, he showed up at your place instead ofGideon’s so that you could give him sex and make his migraine go away, but thenhe didn’t tell you that sex would help him. Is that what you’re saying?”

“Well, I…” Addison studied her coffee cup.“Maybe he just came to my place because it’s closer. Anyway, the orgasm helpedenough for him to sleep. Around midnight, he woke up and still had a migraine.It wasn’t as bad so this time we had sex.”

“So, he still had a migraine thismorning?” Grace asked. “Because he looked pretty chipper when he walked intothe kitchen, grabbed your ass, and stuck his tongue down your throat in frontof your ex-fiancé.”
