On opposite sides of the small office, just like we'd been on opposite sides of the bed when I woke up. After the second night in a row of falling asleep wrapped around her like that silly plush toy that my wolf idly chewed on as I dressed myself.
Worse, I'd surfaced slowly and found myself faced the other way. Having moved back onto her side of the bed at some point. Likely… after she must have woken up and tried to give me my own spot.
> Mortifying. <
And finalizing this horrific morning, I'd come to while hearing her whisper 'just another minute' repeatedly. While stroking and straightening my hair. Obviously wanting to wait to leave until I woke up.
When I did, all she said was good morning and almost left. All of that has made my face hot even as I tried to focus and tell her what I now knew about the rogues and Chad.
"How did you even figure this out?"
My eyes swam away to focus on the shelving to her side, instead of her fully believing face.
