~ Chicago, Jasper's penthouse ~
October 6
Ellie woke up and it took her some time to calm herself down enough to turn and face the man whose toned arms are wrapped around her.
This time she was sure that Jasper is sleeping because his breathing was deep and steady and occasionally he made faint whistling sounds. There is no way he would make those sounds if he is awake.
Now that she confirmed he is sleeping, she can take her time to observe his handsome face up close. He is relaxed, and even with that, there is a faint smile lingering on his face. Is that smile a permanent feature?
Oh, God! They are both naked under that cover!
But she has to admit that it feels nice. Waking up next to him… it feels nice.
