Chapter 87: Compliment!

After some time passed, Allie began to stir in my arms, eventually waking up. Her movements were slow, her body still heavy with sleep.

"You're awake?" I asked softly, my voice barely above a whisper.

"I was too," I replied, and we rolled around in bed, sharing our contentment before getting dressed to head downstairs for breakfast. The air between us was light, filled with the afterglow of our intimacy.
