Helanie:
I forced my eyelids open when a sweet sight stood in my way. But he wasn't looking at me with the same eyes he used to. Something was bothering him. And by the time I realized what it was, he had already spun around to avoid looking at me.
I gasped and sat up, holding the sheet up to my chest, but it wasn't my naked body that had caused that reaction from him.
"Norman," I gasped, feeling awful that he had seen me share a couch with his brother. It was only Kaye hugging me from behind while we slept naked under one sheet. Maximus was gone, just like he said he would be.
"I'll go check on Emmet," I heard Norman say, not really looking back again. The way he rushed off made me cover my face in my hands and curse at myself.
"Hmm," Kaye started to wake up, so I got off the couch and rushed upstairs. I couldn't face another pair of eyes staring at me strangely.
