Val’s door was slightly ajar. *** “You can’t even beat me in a game! How are you going to beat them?”
He pushed it open, his head cocked curiously. *** "I did beat you! Well.. We never actually finished."
Val was curled up on her mattress, completely asleep. Her bed frame in various parts across the floor, evidently abandoned.
She murmured in her sleep, turning to face him. “I love you, Landon,” she mumbled, still mostly asleep.
She woke nearly a half an hour later, her eyelids fluttering as she shifted. *** There was an undeniable blush on his face as he took a bite of his bagel. “Hm. Yeah. Wonder why that was...”
Landon had fallen asleep well, still curled close to her with his arms on her. *** She smirked. "Yeah. Wonder why."
She paused before smiling, kissing the tip of his nose. *** His blush deeper and he cleared his throat, turning to pour the juice.
