Big Decisions

Sophia

Coming back up to the hotel room, I was surprised to find the bed empty and Luke nowhere to be found.

“Luke?” I called, balancing the two coffees and bags of breakfast. I wasn’t sure what he wanted, so I grabbed a few things, more than enough for two people. I figured it was easier to bring food onto a private jet than a commercial airplane.

“In here!” Luke called from the bathroom. He came out wearing only a towel with a toothbrush sticking out of his mouth. “Oh great, you brought food. I’m famished.”

Steam rolled out of the bathroom behind him, outlining his handsome figure.

“You didn’t wonder where I was?” I asked.

He cocked his head to the side. “Should I have?”

“No,” I said, not wanting to make him uncomfortable to know that a strange man hit on me. “I didn’t want you to worry.”

“If you didn’t return by the time I changed, I would have come looking for you. Be sure to take your cell next time.”

My phone sat on the side table next to the bed, still connected to the charger.
