"You're awake." His voice suddenly came, and Alexa snapped her head towards him. Surprise had echoed in his voice, and his eyes gleamed brightly with relief.
"Why am in your roo—" she finished the rest of her words in his mouth when he abruptly sealed her lips with a kiss.
"You scared me." He breathed.
Dazed, Alexa blinked. Now, that was unexpected. She had not imagined him kissing her with such excitement.
Opening her mouth to speak, she realized how parched and sore her throat was. As if aware of her discomfort, Christopher quickly reached for a bottle of water on the table. He uncapped it and held it over her lips.
Slowly pulling herself up, Alexa readily quenched her thirst.
"Thank you." She said and laid back on the bed while he settled the bottle on the table.
