Arnold allowed her sleep for a while before he tried to remove the pillow under her body. He did it slowly but she realized and grabbed it more tightly. Clenching her fingers on it.
Seeing her show so much affection towards the pillow made him jealous. Did she really valued the pillow more than him?. She had never held him this tighly before whenever they're in bed so he got jealous of a mere pillow. His arms could do better in the aspect of cuddling her at night. Even if she was cold, she still shouldn't have replaced him with a pillow. He thought inwardly.
Arnold waited for a while before attempting to pull out the pillow from under her body again and when he noticed that she wasn't letting go, he pulled it out Abruptly which prompted her to wake up instantly.
Natalie raises her gaze up to meet Arnold who stared at her awkwardly. He was too ashamed that she may find out about his jealousy towards a pillow. So he quickly turned and stood up.
