Sleeping in what felt like a prison cell wasn’t as bad as I expected. After I showered and grabbed some random clothes from the station’s lost and found, I was out like a light. But of course, the first thing I see when I wake up is Ashton’s damn stupid face.
He was grinning like an i***t as he took me to his car and drove me back. I guess he expected me to argue, but honestly? I didn’t have the energy for that, not yet anyway. The first thing I did when we got in was rush to the bathroom, brush my teeth, and prepare for an hour-long soak in the tub with every scented oil I could find.
With the perfect water temperature and soothing scents, I could almost feel myself drifting off. But then the water shifted, and I opened my eyes to find Ashton sitting across from me in the tub.
Was he..
