[Please note: We're still in Kaiden's POV - after they have decided what punishment to give Callan]
The rest of the night continued and we only slept when it was already past midnight—except for Callan. He probably stayed awake until dawn since by the next morning we woke up, his eyes were puffy and had dark circles around them. Were we too cruel? Crystal would nag me if she saw him like that. No matter how much she denied it to me, I could see clearly that he cared for Callan. Or maybe, she's already falling for him. But I'm not telling Callan that. Let him figure it out for himself. Ha-ha.
