Chapter 48: Broken [R18]

PEGGY POV

When I went out of the bathroom, Jayden was already sleeping on the bed. I wanted to sleep on the floor but I was afraid he would get mad at me more.

I slowly laid down next to him. He was facing on the other side so I could see his broad shoulders. I wanted to hug him from behind but he might avoid my touch again. It hurt when he avoided me earlier. 

I couldn't sleep. He was just next to me but I felt like he's still far away from me. He turned around facing me, but he was still sleeping. I stared at his face and didn't notice that I reached out my hand to touch him. I brushed my fingers to his eyebrows, to his eyes, his nose then down to his lips. I missed him. I wouldn't deny that.

I was startled when he suddenly grabbed my hand. When I looked at him, he was staring back at me. He's awake? I was embarrassed. Heat rose to my cheeks. I was pulling my hand from him but he suddenly rolled over on top of me.

"Jayden, get off me!"
