Rae’s door opened, and he poked his head out “What are you doing?” Of course he was still up He was always up Alorking Alorrying

“Nothing,” I said like a guilty teen “Just grabbing some water”

His eyes went froain “Get some sleep”

Shit, it really did feel like

“I will” I strutted over to the kitchen and grabbed one water, then told rabbed another and dropped it on the table next to the couch on my way back to my room

I didn’t look over h I wanted to

She was still out on the couch

Dead to the world

And we had to leave in the next hour if ere going to make it to rehearsal on time An evil part of me wanted to shove her off the couch and yell, “Fire!”

Instead, I tried to channel entleman and slowly approached like one does an animal in the wild because, truly, it was the only comparison my brain could come up with—I reached out to shake her shoulder when she flipped around and threw her ar my body on top of her

“Grace!” I shoved against her

How the hell was she so strong?

“Grace…” I hissed her nae her to pin s were like a vise What the hell? Did she study Jiu-jitsu in another life?

I decided to unwrap her legs first and reached down to pull her right leg offabout working out, she sure felt strong

Not like I was feeling her up

I inwardly groaned This was getting worse by the second, and the guys would be out to eat breakfast any minute
