As Lucy's eyes fluttered open this time, the first thing she noticed was that she was alone on Tom's bed. Did he leave again as he had done the first time they spent the night together? She mused without moving an inch from where she was.
How she had managed to fall asleep after they both returned to the room, she didn't know. But all she remembered was that she had first gone to the bathroom to ease herself, and as she stared into the bathroom mirror while washing her hands, she realized that he had taken off her contact lens once again.
"How do you always manage to take off my lenses?" She had asked as she returned to the room and got on the bed, covering herself with the duvet since Tom was already lying down on his side of the bed, and he was lying on top of the duvet.
Tom shrugged, not knowing how to answer the question, "I want you to sleep comfortably, so I try," he had murmured.
