Chapter 42: Left Out Of The Squad

Dave woke up early in the morning to find Emma's hair covering his face as the two of them were sharing one pillow now.

He didn't mind having her hair against his face as he liked that mixed scent of Shea butter and coconut coming from it.

Last night had been very enjoyable for him despite the way he had returned home and that wouldn't have been possible if it weren't for her.

<Remember you have a morning run to get to, a quest to complete if I'm being specific>

'Can't I just skip it today? I'm very tired.'

<Really?>

'Fine.' He sighed inwardly. 'I'm going.'

The slightest move he had made had gotten detected by Emma as she slowly turned and wrapped her arms around him.

"Where are you going?" She asked with a sleepy voice as she slowly opened her eyes.

"For my daily jog," Dave said, sitting up on the couch.

"What?" She said as her voice had gone from sleepy to serious. "After all you went through last night."

"I'm okay now." He said with a smile.
