Lillian woke up the next morning but lay on the bed for a while. Her mind was muddled and she realized that she was holding onto something soft and squishy. Suddenly, the events of last night rushed back into her head. Did I roll over to Lucas' side? She thought in panic.
Her eyes flew open but to her relief, she was holding a bolster. She was asleep on her side and for a wild moment, she thought that she might have rolled over and clutched him all night long.
"That'll be embarrassing!" she laughed to herself. Then she blushed at the thought of how Lucas was hovering over her and remembering their proximity made her heart giddy. He was nowhere in sight so she slowly got off the bed and began to get ready for work.
