Crystal Knows

Alexander woke up the next day to a heavy chest, like something was weighing down on it. He lifted up his sleep-heavy eyelids to see Auralia lying on his chest, making him reel in shock.

When the heck did this happen?! Alexander thought to himself in horror.

He clearly remembered falling asleep on his side facing the window the night before. Now he was in the center of the bed on his back with Auralia curled around him, her head on his bare chest.

His bathrobe seemed to have loosen up sometime during the night. Probably because of all the movement. And one of his arms was wrapped around her waist, like it belonged there.

Alexander couldn't believe they had somehow gotten into this position during the night. He knew he needed to get out of it before Auralia woke up. Otherwise things would get awkward between them.
