He had the pager on him go off sometime after midnight. Colt sat up immediately and got dressed. He has planned to wake up to the girl.
Though he wasn't in love with her, he didn't want her to wake up feeling used. The least he could do for her was to ensure she felt important.
He hadn't anticipated such an emergency call at this time. Lila hardly used the pager. This only meant that something was up.
His gaze fell on the woman sleeping peacefully. A wave of remorse washed over him but there was little he could do. He looked around for a piece of paper and pen but found none.
He ended up leaving without saying a word. A few hours later, she starred in her sleep as her hand searched around blindly for her companion.
She could feel only coldness around her as she came into contact with cold air. Her eyes flew open and she looked around heart racing.
