Cade woke up first and with slight disorientation. Paige was in his arms but they were in his house. They were usually at hers. He carefully untangled himself from her and pulled on track pants and took a detour to the kitchen for some water before going to the living room. He had several check-ins to do.
“You are alive. I called like a million times.” Jung queried.
“Is there a reason for that?”
“Other than making sure you are alive? Yes actually.”
“And?” Cade asked when he didn’t continue.
“First you have to answer me. You were busy with Paige, weren’t you?”
“That is really none of your business.”
“It’s not, I know it’s not but I am worried about you.”
“About me?” He scoffed. “I am not the one breaking my parole twice a week.”
“Cade, this is more serious than breaking parole.”
