Blair’s POV
Is it possible for every muscle to ache? Is it possible to be so insanely happy that you could literally move mountains and shake the earth with your scream?
I certainly think so.
I may not be entirely aware of what is going on around me, but I do know for certain that I am in my bed. I’m face down, my cheek pressed into my mattress while clutching my pillow under my head. I inhale deeply and feel the way everything aches and shifts all at once.
The breath of fresh air is enough to send sparks of life to my brain. I dare to pry a single eye open and, sadly, I see daylight. I never thought I would be disappointed to see the reflection of the sun hitting my window, but I am.
After last night, I never wanted the darkness to end. I roll over, exposing my bare chest to the open breeze, which makes me shiver at the sudden cold.
Cold.
