My voice is muffled against the pillow. “What?”


I don’t want to know. “I’m hoping it’s because of me.” I don’t want him to tell me it’s not.


I feel him grin against the nape of my neck, his lips damp, his breath warm where it curls beneath my hair. “Now it’s because of you,” he murmurs, “but I didn’t know you yesterday, did I?”


Reluctantly, I shake my head, no, he didn’t.


“I don’t know,” I whisper. “Coby, please, I don’t care, okay? It doesn’t matter.”


“It doesn’t?” he echoes. “You don’t care to know?” 


With a sigh, he says, “I want to tell you.”


“Does it matter?” I turn in his arms so I can look at him, those silver eyes, that wide mouth. “I mean, really. I don’t care how you found me, okay? Just that you’re here now, that’s it. Okay?”
