Hi, everyone. I hope you had a great weekend. I've gotten a few inquiries about the song I mentioned in my author's note for the last chapter.
The song is Words by Skylar Grey and here's a link to it on You Tube.
And here is a teaser for the next chapter of Somewhere I Belong.
“Good morning, Bright Eyes,” he said in the same dreamy
tone he had when waking me up back in the DR. And just like it had then, it
made me feel all warm and tingly inside now.
“Mmm, morning,” I returned, trying to sound more awake
than I had before.
“You were still sleeping,” he replied, regretfully.
“Mmmhmm,” I responded, followed by a long yawn.
“I’m sorry I woke you. I waited as long as I could
force myself to. Do you want me to call you later so you can go back to sleep?”
he asked sounding adorably flustered. His voice held a hint of sorrow for
waking me, but was also filled with excitement to talk to me.
“No.It’s okay. I’m glad you called. What time is it?” I
fought off another yawn and rubbed my eyes in an effort to rouse myself
further.
“Almost eleven.”
“Wow. I can’t believe I slept so late.”
“Still not a morning person, I see,” he teased.
“Nope.”
“Hmm,” he sighed. “You know nurses have to pull all
kinds of weird hours sometimes, Miss Swan.” His voice had taken on a more
serious tone, but I could practically hear him fighting the smirk on his face
with his next comment. “Sure you can
hack it?”
“Better than you can shoot a basketball,” I shot back
at him, loving the fun banter we had going on. It reminded me of the plane and
bus rides when we’d first met. I had missed it—him so much.
“Are you doubting my skills on the court again?”
“Yup.”
“Well I’m just going to have to show you then.”
My heart sped up in excitement and desire over the
thought of watching him shoot hoops. Pulling my ‘e’ pillow to my chest and
smiling widely once again, I accepted his offer. “I’m holding you to that. But
just so you know, I wasn’t impressed with what I saw last night. You are going
to have to knock my socks off to prove it.”
“I accept your challenge, Miss Swan, and will prove my
skills later, but for now let’s get to why I called.”
See you soon with the full chapter. Thanks for reading,
EA
