He answered by tossing his leg over mine and sliding his hand so it rested on my hip.
I breathed him in, a smile curving up the corners of my lips.
He fell silent but I could tell his mind was still going.
“I have to go to New York next week for an interview. Are you going with me?”
Never mind the fact that I was right in the middle of his latest scandal, I could hear it in his tone that he needed me to go.
“Of course I am,” I told him, knowing that even if we figured out the stalker shit by then, I’d still be right by his side.
“Thank you,” he said around a yawn. “I think I have to sleep now.”
I chuckled as I reached over him to turn off the light. He only snuggled closer to me. I kissed him on the head one more time, then told him goodnight. He mumbled his goodnight back which I barely understood. I smiled hard as I settled down and shifted until I was comfortable. His body relaxed against mine and I held him tightly.
I was chasing my dreams not long after him.
