Elle's [POV]
"Do you need anything from your room before we go?"
Nash has agreed to take me sledding. I'm way too excited about it. Something inside me tells me it's more about spending the day with Nash than the actual sledding.
"Nope. I'm all good." I should probably get my phone, but I need a break from it.
He throws two twenties on the table and puts his hand up to stop my protest. "No! You promised to stay quiet about paying for stuff."
"I did not promise to stay quiet about anything. I'm not even sure that's possible."
"I'm beginning to realize that," he says, smiling.
He grabs my coat and holds it open for me. As he pulls it up on my shoulders, his hands lightly touch my neck. I breathe in quickly as a chill goes all the way through my body.
"Are you still cold?" he says, putting his arm around me. "You sure you want to go sledding? You don't seem like you're built for this weather."
"I'm sure." I grab my mittens out of my pocket. "I want to go."
