Chapter 68 - Quiet Lines.

Ava's Pov:

I shifted slightly in bed, my head resting against Leon's chest, his arm loosely wrapped around me like he didn't even realize he was holding me. For a moment, I just stayed there, listening to his breathing, feeling the slow rise and fall of his chest under my cheek.

Then reality settled in.

"Leon," I said softly.

He didn't move.

"Leon," I repeated, this time nudging him lightly.

He groaned and tightened his hold on me instead. "No."

I almost laughed. "You have work."

"No, I don't."

"Yes, you do."

"I own the company," he muttered. "I can take a day off."

"You've been saying that for weeks and still going in every single day," I said, pulling away slightly so I could look at him.

His eyes were still closed. "That's different."

"How?"

"Because now I actually don't want to go."

I rolled my eyes, but I couldn't hide the small smile on my face. "You're still going."
