(CLOE'S POV)
I didn't notice that I had been dozing off for an hour, more or less, when Ziggy slowly slipped his body inside my blanket. I am just too sleepy and kind of tired, so I flip to the other side and face away from him.
I notice Ziggy peeking a kiss on my cheek and whispering, "good night best, love you," before he lay on his back and finally decides to sleep.
My eyes are shut, but then my mind turns aware and slightly awake. Half-conscious, I heard a sound of a motor vehicle coming and stopping in front of the house, then the opening and the slamming of the car door. Simultaneously, I notice someone coming, opening and closing the other room's door; for sure, it's Val. The staircase creaks with every step as he goes down to meet Jewel.
