Capítulo 28: Chapter 28

Ruby

The doorbell chimed and Ruby buried her head under her pillow. Was it morning already? She didn't want to get up or open her eyes. All night she'd tossed and turned, debating asking Tommy if he wanted to sleep in her bed since she knew the old couch was lumpy and uncomfortable. It was the right thing to do, considering he was sticking his neck on the line to protect her. She was glad her sister stayed the night with her, but that meant no extra bed for Tommy. Her double bed would be plenty of room for them both. The least she could do. She thought about offering, but he would refuse. Deep down, Tommy was a nice guy...a gentleman.
