When Julie woke up early in the morning, she felt her head lighter than yesterday. She tried to stretch her body, but her movements were restricted. When her eyes opened, she turned to her side to notice Roman's face that was right in front of her.
Her eyes widened before she looked down to notice one of his legs had locked her lower body, and his hand was around her waist.
Waking him up would be rude when she was the one who asked him to stay here. She slowly tried to push his hand away from her. Noticing some space on the other side, she decided to slip and roll.
But when Julie tried to get away, Roman's hand on her waist pulled her right back at him. He pulled her in a way where she now faced him while lying on her side, and she saw his eyes were still closed.
"Stay still, Winters."
"You are awake," Julie said her thoughts out loud.
"Hm. Thanks to you moving," he responded as if he was going back to sleep.
