Noah ended up sleeping on the couch in front of the bed. He insisted on sleeping in the room in case Aurora woke up again and couldn't find him.
Sarah, who had been tossing and turning on the bed for almost two hours, finally sat up. She stared at the shadow of Noah in the dark, sleeping on the couch. "Are you asleep?" she asked softly, but her question was left unanswered as the light sound of snoring filled the room.
Sarah couldn't help but smile at the sound of Noah's snoring. Despite everything that had happened, she still found comfort in his presence. Slowly, she got out of bed and walked over to where Noah was sleeping on the couch. She stood there for a moment, just watching him sleep peacefully.
Carefully, Sarah reached out and gently brushed a strand of hair away from his forehead. She couldn't deny there was a leftover love in her heart for him, but she knew she needed time to heal and rebuild back the trust that had been shattered.
