Aurora woke with a smile on her face. She stretched her limbs and released a wide yawn. Her blurry vision cleared before falling on the dresser in her room.

She looked back down at herself, noticing that she was still in her attire from last night. Her cheeks flamed when she remembered what happened at the bar.

"Control yourself, Aurora," she whispered to herself, a smile creeping to her lips.

A sharp knock from the door drew her attention, and she flinched slightly.

"Darling, are you awake?" Rosa's voice echoed from behind the door, knocking gently.

Shit.

Aurora flew from the bed, unzipping her dress. "Yeah, yeah, I'll be right out!"

She flung the flimsy material away and snatched the pajamas that were laying on the floor, wriggling into them.
