Chapter 27

Luke drove home after dropping Sofia at school, and let himself into his apartment.

No signs of life yet. Hopefully Jamie was still in bed. Luke took off his jacket, boots, and headed to the bedroom. The drapes were still drawn, and there was a large, person-shaped lump in the bed. Luke smiled, and started pulling off his clothes, tossing them on the chair.

He placed his phone on the nightstand, because he always needed it within reach for Sofia’s school or the club, but that was closed today so he didn’t expect any interruptions.

Luke slipped into the bed, slotting himself up against Jamie’s warm body. He lay on his side spooning Jamie, and wrapped an arm around him. Jamie barely stirred, but he was a heavy sleeper. Luke didn’t mind waiting.

He bent his arm under the pillow to get comfortable, and brought his other hand up to brush some of Jamie’s hair off the back of his neck. Luke pressed a kiss there, then closed his eyes to settle down to sleep.
