Theodore and Adeline were lying down on Theodore's bed while facing each other. Theodore was wrapping Adeline in his warm embrace and they both were trying to get some sleep. But both of them were finding it difficult to fall into slumber.
Adeline opened her eyes and trailed her glances on his closed eyelids and his beautiful eyelashes. And she whispered, "Theo, are you still awake?"
Theodore smiled without opening his eyes. "Yes, I am."
Adeline brought her hand up on his head and then began playing with his soft and long hair. Then she trod carefully, "I wanted to ask you something. But if you don't feel comfortable then you don't need to answer."
Theodore fluttered his eyes open and asked, "What is it? You can ask me anything."
