Around three in the morning, I was being awoken by Cole slipping into the bed beside me. I tried to pretend like I was asleep just to see if he would say or do anything. He sighed and wrapped his arm around me as best he could.
“Mia, you awake?”
I couldn’t pretend anymore when I heard the distress in his voice. “Yes,” I said, pressing my head onto his chest. “What happened?”
“Too much to talk about right now. I just wanted to kiss you and tell you how much I love you.”
It was highly unusual for Cole to act so sweet, but I could tell that something was weighing heavily on him. Instead of pressing the issue, I planted a kiss on his chest and entangling my body with his the best that I could. Even though I was physically as close as I could get, I wanted to be closer
