I had a hard time sleeping that night.
Sitting up on the bed with my back on the headboard, I read a book under the light of the lamp to get myself to tire myself. I had always been an early riser and sleeper but that night, I just couldn’t fall asleep. Cow was already fast asleep next to me. Why couldn’t I?
Thinking back to the dinner I had with Christopher, I thought I’d be uncomfortable or tensed throughout the meal. But he wasn’t being too annoying and intrusive. He didn’t make it all about him. And instead of making me spoil him, it was like he was trying to spoil me instead. He knew I liked lobster. And it made my damn heart flutter because even though it was his birthday, he was still thinking about me.
Those damn feelings were showing up again.
Alec should have never told me
