Meyer's POV
He directly sat on my lap while wrapping both his hands around my neck. We were facing each other. He was so close to me. On my thighs, I could feel him. His hands were warm on my neck. The grip he was holding with his tiny hands, his nervous face—even though he was still—was pretending he was fine.
I don't know about him, but my heart was pounding crazily. Because this is not a joke, to get close like this to Orian.
"Orian, you shouldn't sit on me like this. This is wrong." As I said that, I was about to push him. Just then I saw his gloomy face, and after seeing that, I was unable to push him away from me. My hands automatically gripped his waist.
