Clara stirred when Sebastian came to hug her and pull her closer. ‘Is dinner ready? I took a nap… so tired,’ she yawned.
‘Not yet, I came to snuggle with you. You looked better than dinner,’ he said while kissing the top of her head.
It was hard to keep her eyes open. ‘Don’t skip dinner because of me. I know you’re hungry,’ she said before closing her eyes once more.
When they talked earlier, she had mentioned that she did not get enough sleep the night before. She had nightmares because of stressing out about the installation and their relationship.

To avoid being discovered in his office making out, she opted to join her team and help them out instead, so they could finish the job earlier. And now she felt so exhausted, she couldn’t even keep her eyes open long enough so they could make love.
