Her eyes snapped open before Leah closed them again. She rubbed her eyes and opened them once more, this time more comfortable than the last.
The room was in complete darkness and the alarm clock next to her bed on the side table read that it was 4:15 in the morning.
The moment she moved her ice from the clock, her body became aware of the presence in her room. She could feel the stare of someone on her constantly and they used only one person that made her feel this way, even when she was not looking at him.
"Aiden?"
"Yes, sweetheart?"
"Why are you sitting in the dark?"
She received silence as an answer from him. The silence was deafening, making her set up and turn on the lamp on the side table.
she found him sitting in the corner of the room on the comfortable, single seater sofa that was just meant for reading romantic books for her.
