"Why then do you stare?" He asked, and at that moment, Neriah's right hand almost rose from his shoulder to reach for his face as hers flushed a lovely shade of pink, but she was quick enough to pause the action and just opened her mouth instead.
"This is the first time." She said
"First time for what?" He asked with his brows creased.
"The first time that I open my eyes in the morning and find you still here in bed." She confessed and flushed foolishly.
"Why, you do not like it?" He asked.
She shrugged as index finger caught a strand of hair at his neck and twirled it. "I did not say that."
"So you like seeing me when you wake up." He said with a big grin, one that almost drew an equal expression from her face but she remained placid.
