Devon skipped her steps and hopped on the bed. She bounced a little, making her giggle at how soft it was.
"Come!" she invited, patting the surface of the mattress.
Lewis stood by the door, sighing helplessly. He had never sighed this much in his entire life; today was the first.
'How can she look so excited?' Lewis wondered internally, shaking his head as he strode in.
When he reached the bed, he plopped down on the edge of the bed. His palm against the mattress, his eyes on her.
"See? It's not that hard." She smiled brightly.
Unlike her, Lewis kept his poker face. It was easy for her, but it was a little challenging for him.
Just moments ago, the determination in her eyes would compel anyone to submit. But now, she's grinning like a little girl. Devon was surely playing with his heart.
"What if I want to sleep while hugging you?" He asked.
He didn't plan to do that, of course. Even holding hands didn't cross his mind. However, Lewis was intrigued to see her reaction.
