Kapitel 270: Come Closer

When was the last time that things felt this awkward between us when we were alone together?

What should I say to him now?

While I was thinking about what I should say to him, Hayden walked over to the bed and sat down on it. He looked more mentally tired than physically tired, and I wondered what was on his troubled mind. I watched him take in a few deep breaths while I hesitated about what to do.

“Come here,” Hayden spoke up abruptly.

His words snapped me out of my thoughts, and I realized that he wanted me to go to him. I slowly approached the bed where he was sitting, and I could feel his eyes on my face before his gaze trialed down my body.

“Hayden…” I called his name softly when I stood in front of him.

“Come closer,” he instructed as his hands reached out to grab my arms and pulled me closer to him.
