After being shown our temporary rooms, we slept until the next day. My eyes fluttered as I began to wake up, noticing my body was completely empty as if someone had removed all of my limbs except for one hand that was wrapped around my pillow. I sighed and then I opened my eyes.
And there was Malachi staring back at me with those big puppy eyes of his. Fear struck inside my heart as I shrieked, "Oh!" and then I leapt out of bed with a thud.
But it wasn't loud enough for Malachi to hear it because he still didn't seem to notice me yet. He sat up and looked around the room with his hands on his chest and he said something in a sleepy voice that sounded like "mmm."
After some time, I shouted, "Over here!"
