Probably the last thing Sebastian was expecting when he staggered into his kitchen Saturday morning was to find a blond kid sitting on his counter, munching on a Pop Tart. He squinted at him for a second, then asked, "Alex?"

Alex raised one eyebrow at him. "If I was a bad guy, you'd be dead."

( If you were a bad guy, you wouldn't have started the coffee. )
