ARIEL'S POV
After what seemed like eternity, my eyes fluttered open, I felt relaxed like i just had a full body massage, my body was cool too, probably because of the water.
No sleeping pills and no nightmares, I wonder why? Could it be-
"You finally decided to wake up." A deep husky voice stated distracting me from my thoughts, "Vin.... Vin.... Vincent!" I shuttered, shoot everything yesterday wasn't a dream or hallucination, Vincent is really alive.
"Hmm." He hummed softly, "you can get off me now." Without a word I immediately jumped off his body, the remaining parts of my tattered gown is soaking wet and so is my hair, I used my big toes to rub against each other due to the cold.
