Lily giggled and turned around, wrapping her arms around his neck. She leaned in and pressed a soft kiss on his lips. “Why didn’t you wake me up earlier?”

“How could I wake you when you were sleeping so peacefully? You looked like you were having the sweetest dreams,” Ethan teased, his lips curling into a smirk.

Lily arched an eyebrow. “Oh, I did have a dream… but it wasn’t about you.”
