"Listen, I know I'm the last person you want to talk to right now, but…"
"I haven't seen you in weeks, so…"
"Please just call me back," Louis hung up afterward.
He pocketed his phone.

"Morning," he greeted her.
Sophia yawned.
"Morning Ambrose," she greeted.
Nicholas reminded, "You know, you could call me something other than Ambrose."
"Why should I? I think it's cute," Sophia admitted.
"Then call me Ambrose, never mind," Nicholas chuckled.
"What a perfect way to start an amazing day," Sophia said, shrinking in her bed.
She'd waken up to Nicholas' greeting. He had stayed next to her.
"Did you stay up late?" He asked her.
She shook her head, "I slept a while after you did."
He scratched the back of his neck.
"So I must've slept first huh," he said.
Sophia rested her head on his shoulder.
"You did," she answered.
