Chapter 126

Dalton

"He's asleep," I say as I walk back up from where the dorm rooms are.

"He'll probably be out all night, he had a big day." Mandy walks over, putting her arms around my waist.

"It's been a big day for all of us," I remind her.

"Glad we had cupcakes, though," Caelin interrupts from the computer room.

Almost forgot he was here, but I may as well get used to him hanging around.

Who knows when he'll be leaving. He keeps the weirdest hours I've ever seen.

"I'm gonna go take a shower, see you in a few minutes?" Mandy leans up, giving me a lingering kiss.

"I'll be there as soon as I close up."

Most everything is put away, but I waste a few minutes, making sure the trash is taken out and wiping down the counters. I don't know why, but I'm nervous to be alone with her in my dorm. Maybe it's because of the way we left each other the last time, or maybe this is something else totally different.

"Don't work all night," I tell him, turning off the lights in the main room.
