Love's Bitter Edge (Eva and Leonard)

Jack chuckled helplessly. "What's on your mind, Eva?"

He plopped down on the couch and checked his watch. "We only have about five hours, Eva. I booked an 8:00 am flight. So, we have to sleep while we can." Jack didn't look at me afterward. Instead, he draped a coat over himself. I stared at him in a daze for a long time before I slowly made my way to the bed.

It was just that I just couldn't fall asleep when I listened to his breathing.

"Do you need me to tell you a bedtime story, Eva? Once upon a time..."

I couldn't hold it in anymore. I laughed and said, "That's enough. You don't have to do it."

I hid myself under the blanket and thought about some fairy tales before I drifted off to sleep. It was a restful sleep, and I slept all the way to the next morning.

I had to cancel some of my plans for the day before I could follow Jack to the airport. He was extremely busy; he kept talking on the phone and reading reports during our journey.
