It was as though something touched his soul and in a twinkle he felt his whole mind and body calm like still waters. And for the first time in over a decade, he 'slept'!!
Nicklaus couldn't remember what happened, but when that thing touched him he clung to it, unable to let go.
Tiana snuggled deeper into Nicklaus broad chest as his hand went around her waists. He pulled her closer to him as though she was his life source.
When morning came, Tiana's eyes fluttered open slowly, and her eyes fell on a strange body with ink on it and she blinked. In a flash, her eyes when she realized what she was staring at. Instantly, she looked up and her eyes fell on Nicklaus' face.
How did I get here?
Tiana asked in her head.
Since he was still sleeping, she would just roll back to her side and pretend as if nothing happened. Nodding to herself, she tried to inch backwards but her body did not budge. That was when she realized that he had his hands around her waists, hugging her to him.
