The Returning EX (Sophia and John)

After that, he became more gentle and bold.

Still, it was just a dream, so the most exciting part would not come that easily.

Before it got to the juiciest part, she woke up.

She blinked her eyes and it was chilly around her.

It was pitch black outside the window and around her; it took her a few seconds to realize that it was just a dream.

She felt somewhat perplexed to have woken up at this point in her dream—right before the most exciting part.

Then, she angrily turned over and hugged her blanket, falling back to sleep in rage.

The dream never resumed, but it was fortunate that she still had a good sleep after all.

The next morning, Sophia got up rather early, and it seemed like John was still sleeping.

She quickly freshened up and packed her belongings before walking to the window and taking a picture of the beach. Then, she posted it on Facebook.

Following that, she sat on her bed, waiting for John and Zack to come in.

A while later, John came knocking on her door.

Sophia carried her suitcase with her and opened the door. Without even looking at John, she said, “Come on in.”

She then left the suitcase next to the door before leaning on the desk, waiting.

After that, John was able to finish freshening up in just a couple of minutes.

By the time Zack came over, both of them were ready to go.
