When Elle woke up, it was already night time. She slept comfortably. She felt strange. Though the room temperature was very cold the bed was warm as if someone was there a while ago, hugging her. It gave her a familiar feeling that she couldn't explain.
After a while, she got off the bed, searching for Erick. Then she found him in the living room area, looking at the laptop. The spying devices were now activated and connected to Carl and Erick's laptop.
He turned to her direction after he sensed her presence. He heard her footsteps coming in and her faint scent came to his senses. When their eyes met, Erick gave her a gentle smile.
"You're awake," Erick mumbled.
"Yes, I think I overslept." Elle looked at him apologetically.
Erick chuckled as he remembered how comfortable Elle was when he was cuddling her a while ago. He was glad that she didn't wake up or else Elle would kick him out of the bed.
