Hailey lost all sense of time. She felt like a small boat caught in a storm, tossed by powerful waves until one final surge dragged her under completely.
Jonah carried her to the shower and bathed her. When he finished, he helped her back into bed. Exhausted, Hailey curled beneath the covers and slowly drifted off to sleep.
Jonah playfully pinched her cheek. "You're not allowed to fall asleep just yet, Ms. Hailey."
Hailey murmured sleepily, with her eyes still closed, "Don't bother me… I'm exhausted…"
Jonah ran his fingers through her damp hair. "Your hair's still wet. Let me take care of that."
With that, he grabbed the blow dryer and started drying her hair.
His touch was gentle, careful not to disturb her. Hailey barely felt his fingers threading through her hair as the warm air slowly dried each strand.
Jonah set the dryer down when he finished and slipped into the bathroom to shower.
Upon returning, he pulled back the covers and eased into bed. Though it was his room, he hadn't slept here since bringing Hailey home. Tonight would be the first time he'd fall asleep holding her close.
Hailey was already sound asleep when Jonah gently wrapped his arms around her.
She snuggled close like a kitten, seeking comfort in his embrace. "Jonah…"
She was calling his name.
A smile tugged at Jonah's lips. "I'm right here."
All of a sudden, she spoke again. "Declan."
Jonah's heart skipped a beat. So many cherished memories from their youth were lost forever. Back when he was still Declan, Hailey had been the only light in his life.
Since then, he'd never let go of her, no matter how much it hurt.
She still held onto the memory of who he once was; to her, he would always be Declan.
Jonah bent down and kissed Hailey's forehead. "I'm here."
