“I'm good, just lost track of the time.” | answered before realizing my clothes were outside, with Lewis! “Could

you passthe clothes you found, please?” | asked before opening the door up a crack to see Lewis already

holding them in his hands. His gaze avertedas he passed the bundle of fabric toand once again patiently

waited forto exit the bathroom. “Thank you, Lewis.” | smiled at him as | stepped out and awkwardly rocked

on my feet slightly in the tshirt and jogging bottoms that were clearly far too big for me. My wet hair cascaded

down my back and my bare feet curled slightly out of awkwardness. “I'm sorry for making you wait so long.”

He didn’t say a word about how long it had actually been, in fact he didn’t say anything at all, he just stared at

me, his eyes darting over every inch of my face, flashing with so many thoughts | couldn't for the life of me

“You look breathtaking.” Chis response after a minute offidgeting with my bare feet. Nothing but

sincerity could be found on his features as he dropped the book he had obviously been reading.

He too was dressed comfortably, he was sat up comfily in bed, an open book that most likely had his head buried

in it, now sat in his lap, open but not even an after thought as he gazed at me.

passed over me. He chuckled but kept his eyes trained on me, it was making my stomach flutter and so | quickly

it’s my one of my favorites.” He had obviously read it much more than once.

“I've never heard of it...” | admitted to which he instantly feigned hurt. “I don’t really like reading, after the new

small piece of paper into the page he was on and closing the book over quickly, before placing it onto the table

next to the bed.

“My favorite, is A Tale Of Two Cities.” He smiled before getting out of bed and walking over to the small shelf of

books, pulling out an old battered one and handing it to me.

“Charles Dickens again? You must like the author.” My fingers gently stroked over the hard cover and

felt the indents of the books title.

“Hmm...” He agreed with a hum. | enjoy his use of language.” He stretched his arms over his head while |

absentmindedly opened the book and quickly read the first line. “I could read it to you, if you wanted?”

| snapped my head up to him and smiled at the redness in his cheeks, before handing him the book, pulling the

covers back on the opposite side to where he was lying, and jumped in.
