“You know why I’ve stayed away from you, Sophie.”
“My mom wasn’t a problem before that night.”
“It’s going to be a problem if he fires her because of us.”

“What do you mean?”

“Dating?”
“Yeah.”
“You think we’re dating?”
“Aren’t we?”

“You want to be my friend?”
“Of course. I don’t want us to end. Do you?”
“I don’t know what I want.”
“Do you want me?”
“More than I’ve ever wanted anyone before.”
“Then that’s it. We’ll just have to be more careful not to get caught.”
“You sneaking into my bed isn’t what I would call careful.”
“But your bed is so comfy, and you’re so warm and cozy.”
“Is that right?”
“Plus, I like the other stuff we do.”
I grinned. “What other stuff?”
