Eliana Brown ~•~ I didn’t think things through when I jumped away from William. I was so close to falling and hitting my head on the table when his hand came around my waist and pulled me even closer to him. My scream faded into a gasp at our proximity. Had he been awake all this while? Why did he pretend to be asleep? I needed to dig a hole and bury myself as soon as possible! I was mortified. My cheeks were flaming red. How did I find new ways to embarrass myself in front of him every time? “Are you good?” His morning voice was even deeper than his normal voice and the raspiness caught me off guard. I nodded ferociously and moved away from him, still sitting on the couch because my legs were shaky as f**k. I stared at the table and saw the bottle of wine we had shared last night.
