My consciousness was hazy. I could barely make out what Ethan was saying. All I could feel was a comforting presence enveloping me, lulling me into a peaceful sleep.

I wasn't sure how much time had passed, but I groggily woke up to find myself resting against a warm, solid chest. Startled, I quickly sat up, only to notice a coat draped over my shoulders. When I looked closer, I realized it was Ethan's coat.

A faint smile tugged at the corner of his lips. "No, you slept soundly. I couldn't even wake you. Looks like you were really exhausted."

His words sent a rush of heat to my face. How could I fall asleep just like that? I even slept against his chest. How embarrassing was that!
