When There Is Nothing Left But Love

Seeing that it was already getting late, I told him. “Ashton, it’s time for bed.”

Ashton put down his phone. Just then, the corner of his mouth turned up in a small smile as he set his penetrating dark eyes on me.

“Could you be any cheesier?” I mocked.

Brushing away my sarcastic remark, Ashton cuddled me as we got into bed. He then moved his palm onto my lower abdomen and asked softly, “Does it hurt?”
