He grinned, hands in his pockets, strolling from room to room. "Just checking. Doors, windows, all good. Everything's safe," he said, coming back to stand in front of me. My heart gave a little squeeze, and then something insidestarted to stir.
"It's been a long day. You've gotta be exhausted. Go shower, sleep. I'll see you tomorrow," he said, his hand brushing through my hair before he gave my cheek a soft pinch.

If you need me, just call." I was losing this battle fast. With a huff, I gave in. "What If I just want you to stay?" His grin widened. "Not mad anymore, huh?" "Hayden!" I huffed, cheeks burning. "If you keep teasing me, I'll really get mad." He cupped my face, his thum shing over my cheek, "Don't be mad." I thought that meant he was staying, but then he pulled back. "I'll be next door.
