She reached her delicate hand out to caress his chiseled cheek and whispered, "You scoundrel, you've stolen my heart." Nash's lips curved into a slight smile. "Really?" Surprised, Tatiana pulled back and exclaimed, "You... Why aren't you asleep yet?"

Nash just smiled slightly. "Figure it out yourself."
