Chapitre 76: Chapter 76: Photo Bomb

"UM, IGNORE THE MESS," I said, as we reached my room. What was I thinking? Clothes and makeup were scattered across every surface.

He chuckled. "Tru, I've seen your messy bedroom before."

"Yeah, but it was dark then, and now it's way worse."

I grabbed a glass from the bathroom and filled it with the flowers Zander gave me before setting it on my dresser next to the doorway.

"But, I could see with absolute clarity because I was holding you, remember? It was amazing." A sliver of awe entered his voice. "You were like my own personal flashlight."

When we had been imprisoned together in Dante's cellar, we had discovered that he could piggyback on my ability to see in the dark, as long as he was touching me.

"Oh yeah. Okay, so now you know I'm a slob."

"And I still like you." He twirled me around. "A lot." His lips were feather soft as he kissed me.

Wow. My heart thumped so loudly, I was afraid he'd hear it. I forced myself to step away.
