But little did she know, her subconscious movement of clutching him tighter was enough to alert Ellison that she was awake. Ellison lowered his gaze with deliberate slowness, his voice cold and deliberately quiet as he spoke. “Pretending to sleep now, huh?”

shut.
The thought of having embarrassed him in front of his friend made her nervous.
She hoped he would just let it go if she pretended to be asleep.
