Chapter 36: Chapter 36 - A Mess

I woke up in Xavier's arms the next day. It had been long since we cuddled together like this. The sweet aroma of Xavier's body filled the entire room. It was intoxicating.

I almost died of embarrassment, recalling how I clung to him shamelessly the previous night. I stared at the bruises all over his naked body. How could I do something so obscene?

I covered my face with my hands in embarrassment. I finally noticed that I was also naked under the blanket. I was almost on the verge of fainting. I blushed again, thinking how heavenly the night was.

As I tried to get up, Xavier pulled me closer. He was awake all the time. He opened his eyes and stared at me.

"Where are you running away?" he asked. I could not take my eyes off him. His messy hair over his face was ethereal.

"I should take a shower," I said in a tiny voice.

"Want to shower with me?" Xavier asked.

I hastily covered his face with the blanket. "Don't say such lewd things," I said.
