CHAPTER 73

I stirred awake feeling the warm rays of the sun on my face, I opened my eyes slowly, I was still in my position from yesterday and my neck was hurting due to the way I slept.

I don’t even remember falling asleep

I gazed round the room and finally landed on William. I place my hands on his forehead and his body temperature had reduced a bit, it wasn’t as high as it was yesterday night. Why is the sun coming in? Shit! What’s the time?

I sat up straight and glanced at the clock that read seven a.m.

Was Lance locked outside? I asked myself. My eyes landed on my phone, I stretched and retracted back almost immediately, favoring the shoulder I hit on the bed frame yesterday night. It was hurting more than it did yesterday.

I walked over to the other side of the bed picked up my phone, unlocking it to read a message from Lance. The message was sent at five a.m. he was informing me that he be able to come on time but he’ll be here before eight.

I decided to wash my face and brush my teeth
