#Chapter24
She Ran
Curled in Colton's arms in bed, my head laid on his chest as I listen to that steady rhythm of his heartbeat, I doze in and out of peaceful and contented slumber. Something keeps waking me when I start to fall deeply, and I can't seem to put my finger on it. Like a dream or a feeling that's just out of sight and seems to jump in to haul me back whenever my consciousness drifts away. An unease or a threatening nightmare maybe, it's definitely a sense of unease and try as I might, I can't seem to fall into blissful darkness for any length of time. It's almost dawn and I have barely dozed for more than twenty—minute slots at a time. I'm frustrated and exhausted, yet I can't seem to rest.
