Celeste blinked in surprise. Last night, she clearly–she paused and looked toward the couch.

Trevor was sleeping with his head propped against his hand. Whether it was a coincidence or he had felt her gaze, he suddenly opened his eyes and met hers.

Celeste looked away, saying nothing. She didn’t ask if it had been him who had carried her to the bed.
