Capítulo 56: Win Him Over

** Harper **

Harper was reluctant to put the rest of her clothes back on, but she gave in at the end. The two of them dressed, went back to the living room, and finished the dinner they had abandoned midway. She kept up the game and fed Eli desserts a few more times, miraculously managing to only make a mess once, and they had a good laugh about the suggestive shape of the smudge that the strawberry juice made on his jeans.

She secretly wished that she could use it as an excuse to keep his ruined clothes. It'd be a fair exchange for her underwear, right?

After he left, she padded back to her bedroom and hopped back into the bed. Instead of getting right back to her computer and her web novel like she typically did, she closed her eyes, and started thinking about this unreal evening that had just passed.

Or rather, about the entire past week that she had been too busy to examine closely with a focused mind.
