I kiss her forehead and hold her tightly in my arms.
“You know you will always be my best friend,” she murmurs sadly.
I frown, that sounded……off. “What does that mean?” I ask.
“Nothing. I just wanted you to know that.” She kisses my chest. “I love you. I really do love you, Nathan. More than anything.”
“I love you, too.”
“Goodnight, Nathe,” she whispers as her eyes flutter closed.
“Night.”
An uneasy feeling washes over me. It’s like she’s reassuring me of our friendship.
Why?
Why would she say that unless she was pre-empting an end to our relationship?
What the fuck is going on?

I wake to the sound of the shower, and I drag my hand down my face. It feels late. The sun is up.
“What time is it?” I reach over and grab the phone from the side table. “Oh, it’s Nathan’s ph
one, not mine.” I swipe it on, put in his code, and look at the time. It’s 7:00 a.m.
Huh, Nathan has usually left over an hour ago.
His phone flashes silently with a notification.
Missed call:Robert.
Hmm, I click out of it in disgust. What, does he call him when he gets to work every morning?
I frown at the thought and click through to his call register.
