“Doesn’t feel like it,” she whispered.

I nodded, “I’ll work on it. Okay?”

At her nod, I closed my eyes and asked, “Okay, are we sleeping here, or in your bed?”

She giggled, “I have a twin bed.”

I shrugged, “Be tight, but it’d be worth it.”

She giggled, then, as she lifted her head off my shoulder, she nodded.

I stood up then offered my hand to her.

The moment she did, I helped her stand and then followed her into her bedroom.

She was already in a t-shirt and sleep shorts, so I shucked my shirt off, and my jeans, socks, and boots.

I got into bed, then she moved in and curled her body around mine.

My arm went under her head, and her arm wrapped around my waist.

I twisted my head and pressed a kiss on the top of her head, “Night, Sparkles.”

She giggled, “Night, Big Foot.”

Then I closed my eyes and tried not to let my cock get hard at the feel of her soft body pressed against mine.

I had just counted to a hundred when I felt her body go lax against mine.

And for the first time in I didn’t know how long, I fell asleep with a smile on my face.

‘All you need is love. But a little chocolate now and then doesn’t hurt.’

I rolled over in my bed at my parents’ house and frowned.

Surely, I hadn’t dreamed all that last night.

Definitely not... right?

And when my door opened, and I saw Dominik standing there, he winked at me, “Morning, Minx.”

I lifted a brow, “What happened to Sparkles?”

He chuckled as he moved into the room.

He was wearing his t-shirt and jeans again.

My mouth had watered at the sight of all that naked flesh last night.

And this morning, I hated seeing it covered up.

Yes, I had seen him without his shirt on, more than once, but being curled up against it at night in my bed... it just hit different.
