Sylvia blinked, snapping out of her daze just in time to realize Rupert had already stepped inside.
She whirled around at the sound of the door shutting, blocking his path.
"Look, I booked a regular queen room. There's really nowhere for you to sleep."
Rupert just shrugged, totally unfazed. "It's not like we haven't crashed together before."
He brushed past her arm with casual ease and wandered into the room.
Sylvia felt her cheeks burn. Suddenly she remembered her clothes were still scattered all over the bed. She rushed over and yanked the comforter over the mess, half panicked.
She flopped down on top of the blanket, gesturing awkwardly around the cramped space. "Uncle Rupert, you see how basic this place is. Why don't you just head back to your own room? I'm sure your cozy bed is waiting for you."
He quirked an eyebrow. "Cozy bed, huh? That's thoughtful of you."
Rupert leaned up against the TV stand, hands stuffed in his pockets, his tone unreadable.
Sylvia clutched the comforter tighter, then pointed to the door. "Uncle Rupert, there's the door. Don't let me keep you."
The air in the room went still for a moment. Then, the end of the bed dipped with a soft creak.
Sylvia looked up, and suddenly Rupert was right there-close enough for her to feel his breath.
He had one knee on the mattress, leaning in just a little.
