Deviating from the plan

«Then, what happened?» Lara asked.

She did remember everything very well until the kiss. Nate had then carried her to the bed, but... What later?

Oh, well, she could guess. But she also wanted to feel everything again. To recall the feeling of being complete.

«You don't remember?»

«From this moment on, things get cloudy. At some point, there's a void of a few hours, and I wake up in the morning with a headache.»

«No headache tomorrow!» he promised.

What had he done to make her head hurt, though? Was he too fierce? Or was it due to the link clashing against her human rationality?

«I know. I might even remember what I'm missing now.»

«When the food arrived, we parted. I had to open the door.»

«Okay...»

«Then, I walked back to you and... I carried you to the bed.»

He observed her for a moment until she raised her arms. His instinct reacted before his brain, and he surrounded her with his arms again.
