Embarrassment

(From Demetrius's Perspective)

"Hmm…"

She had been hugging me tightly and would not let me go from the moment we returned to our bedroom. Tomorrow, we would go back to Querencia. 

I slept with her in a sitting position, leaning against the bed frame since she was on my lap and would not go down. I tried a bit, then did not try anymore since I did not mind if she slept that way. 

It was not our bedroom, so I had a hard time trying to sleep. In the end, I gave up after trying a few times. My wife, on the other hand, had been sleeping peacefully. It must be because she was drunk. 

I played with her hair, twirling a strand around my finger. I stared at her sleeping face as if captured. How could someone be so attractive, beautiful, and adorable? It was no surprise that a lot of people fell for her. Only she did not know what a beauty she was.
