The house was grand.
And big as hell.
Two people living here could get lost in this giant place.
“It’s not very baby-proofed,” I said as I eyed the fireplace instruments.
“That was on our agenda,” Boone grumbled as he continued to read. The longer he read, the more frowny his frown became. “But you kept telling me that she wasn’t going to be moving around for at least half a year, and we had time.”
“That makes sense,” I said.
His brows furrowed. “What the fuck?”
I knew what he was reading.
Apparently, my old team had failed to pay for my apartment this month like was written into my contract, and I had thirty-six hours to remove my belongings, or they were going to trash it all.
And, seeing as I had no memory of anything to fight it, we were left with few options.
“So…” I said. “Fancy a ride to Miami?”
He didn’t sleep with me.
Which made me mad.
I tossed and turned for hours before I finally got up and went in search of him.
I found him on the couch, asleep, but with a frown on his face.
I should probably let him sleep.
We had a flight out of Bozeman tomorrow that we had to get up early for, and we literally only had a few more hours of sleep left.
But I couldn’t sleep.
Or, more importantly, I couldn’t sleep without him.
I didn’t know why or how, I just knew that everything would be better if I crawled onto that couch with him.
Plus, it really didn’t look like he was sleeping all that well, either.
He was tossing and turning, even in the few short moments that I’d been watching him. His arm had lifted and dropped above his head three times. His left leg came up and went down. Right leg up and down.
Yeah, this would be better for both of us. I knew it.
Decision made, I tiptoed toward the couch, hoping I could just scooch into the couch without him noticing.
I carefully went to the back of the couch and slid down between the couch cushions and him.
As I did, I shoved him right off the couch.
“What…” He hit with a thump, and I covered my mouth with my hand to keep the laughter at bay.
I looked over the side of the couch and stared at his wide eyes as he stared blankly up at the ceiling. He seemed really irritated.
“I’m sorry.”
He moved his head so that he could see me more clearly.
