Slowly, I reached out my hand and ran my fingers gently through his blond hair while Hayden continued to rest with his eyes closed. The way the corners of his lips curled upwards a little made me feel that he liked it when I did this.
“Would you be happier if you could paint more?” Hayden spoke up softly with his eyes still closed.
“I guess. Probably,” I replied thoughtfully.
“Do you have like a website or something where people can view your portfolio online?” Hayden asked.
“Honestly, I haven’t gotten around to setting anything like that up. I know that I should though…” I said as I pursed my lips together in thought.
Unknowingly, my hand had stopped stroking his hair and Hayden stirred before opening his eyes.
“You should make a website so everyone can see your work…” Hayden said resolutely.
“I guess you’re right. I’ll work on it soon…” I replied.
“Not good enough. You have all the time in the world now. Start today,” Hayden replied strictly.
