CHAPTER 101: Pillow talk
"Hmm?" Heaven wearily opened her eyes, catching a pair of eyes staring at her from the side. "You're back?"
Heaven blinked and blinked before rubbing her eyes. "Did you have dinner yet? Wait. I'll make you..." she trailed off as a finger pressed on her forehead, pushing her back when she tried to get up.
"I already had dinner, so sleep some more," said Dominic, smiling.
"You did?" her voice was coarse, displaying her exhaustion.
"Mhm. A few hours ago."
"A few hours ago." She frowned. "You mean lunch?"
"Dinner. Do you know what time is it now?" Dominic moved his knuckles from his temple to his jaw. "It's almost midnight."
"Huh?" Heaven furrowed her brows before her eyes went wide.
"Haha. You fell asleep in Basti's room, so I carried you back here," he explained, guessing she already recalled where she fell asleep.
"Oh..."
"So, sleep some more. You're tired."
"How about you?" Heaven blinked ever so tenderly. "Aren't you going to sleep?"
"In a bit — I'm not sleepy."
Her body relaxed, dragging her sore body to face him. She wordlessly moved closer, slipping her hand in between his arm and waist.
"So warm," she murmured, burying her face in his chest. "Let's sleep, Dom. You're tired too."
He was not.
"Mhm." He stroked her back gently.
Hugging as they sleep just gradually became natural. Dominic didn't feel any awkwardness anymore, as if they were truly a couple since day one. Not that he wanted to think of the past anymore because he simply wanted to accept the present.
"Are you sleeping now?" his quiet and husky voice caressed her ears softly.
"Not yet," she whispered, eyes closed.
"Why?"
"I was thinking about how your day went."
"It was... alright. Much better than I thought." — considering he and Sebastian agreed to share her.
"I see." The corner of her lips curled up, sighing in relief.
"How about you?"
"Hm?"
"How was your day?"
Heaven chuckled weakly. "I missed you, obviously," she humored, half awake.
"Did you?" His eyes shone with affection as he gazed down at her.
"Mhm. And I hit the gym — I can barely feel my legs."
"Do you want me to massage them?"
"No." Heaven opened her eyes, drawing her head back, and then she looked up at him. "Are you serious?"
"Do I sound like I'm not?"
Another wave of chuckle slipped past her lips. "It's just weird. That's all."
"How is it weird?"
"Because... you are Dominic Zhu."
Huh?
