They hadn__ been good months. About as ugly as a wet warthog and as messed up as a bumblebee in a snowstorm.

Those gray eyes slid back to her. __our shower big enough for two?___es, but the cats don__ like to get wet. Neither does theguinea pig. But you might have some success with the lizard.__ad, bad move. Because both corners of his mouth weregetting in on the smile action.
