Shadows In Durango

Chapter 76

*****Sofia's POV*****

Moaning in comfort, I snuggle closer under the sheets towards the large heater which had kept me cosy throughout the night - before suddenly feeling finger tips stroking gently up and down my arm.

I blink to open my eyes, confused at first as to what or who was beside me, before my eyes settle on Vincent, feeling shamefully relieved that it was him as opposed to anyone else.

It took me mere seconds to realise that he was shirtless, with me practically on top of his abdomen clutching on to him like a koala to a tree - shoot!

"Woah sorry! I didn't mean to crush you!" I blab out, moving myself away from him a little only for his tree trunk arm to pull me back in.

"Crushing me? How heavy do you think you are? I can barely feel you!" Vincent scoffs, as I chuckle and just accept that he wanted me tucked in to his side.

"Besides, you can't cuddle me all night in your underwear and then pretend that you want space after that!" Vincent suddenly jokes, as my face falls with all emotion.

Did I just hear him right?!

Lifting the sheet up with my left hand before cranking my neck downwards, I shriek when finding that I wasn't wearing any clothes.

How the hell did I end up in bed without pyjamas on knowing that he would be coming back here?!

I remembered speaking to Emma in the rainfall room, telling her about the whole incident with Daryl and Vincent, before hanging up and enjoying the last fifteen minutes of the session on my own, which made me extremely sleepy. After that, I left and came back upstairs to which I was grateful that I could keep my robe and slippers on, and I must have just waltzed in here, lay down, before falling asleep!
