Summer's Pov
I did not sleep.
Not at one. Not at two. Not at three in the morning when I was lying on my back staring at the ceiling like it had answers written on it that I just hadn't found yet. I kept replaying it. The way he'd said it.
*I just wanted to spend more time with you.*
And when I'd asked why, he'd said he'd been enjoying my company. That he craved it. He'd been almost shy about it, which was the part I couldn't stop coming back to, because Crew Ashford was not shy. Crew Ashford did not say things like that. And yet there he was saying exactly that, sitting in my room looking at the floor like he didn't quite know what to do with himself.
I told myself it was nothing. Siblings enjoy each other's company all the time. That's a normal thing that happens in normal household
