I was me.

I shrugged. “When you didn’t leave the room last night, I figured you wouldn’t mind the company.”

“I didn’t like leaving you unprotected,” he said apologetically. “I should have asked.”

“You didn’t encroach upon my personal space, Conor. I did.Ishould have asked you if it was okay to join you.”

I should also have just offered the other side of the king-sized bed like I’d wanted last night.

Stupid nerves.

He cleared his throat. “You have an open invitation to always join me where I’m sleeping.”

I tipped my chin up. “Really?”

“Really.”

“Even though I haven’t worked on atonement?”

“Even though you haven’t worked on atonement.”

“Do you know what I need to do before you’ll forgive me?”

“I have a semblance of an idea.” Yet again, he changed the subject. “I asked Aidan not to tell Savannah that I’d found you.”

I pondered his words. “She can know.”

“She’s upset that you stopped answering her messages.”

“I upset a lot of people.”

“You did. You should work on that.”

I probably should.

“Did you sleep well?” he asked when I didn’t reply to his comment.

“I did. You’re like a heating pad.”

“I run hot.” His shrug jostled me. “Didn’t think I’d spend the night like this.”

“That bad or good?”

“You looking for compliments?”

“Maybe.”

“You know it’s not bad.”

“Is it good though?” I queried wistfully.

“Do you want it to be?”

“I’m not like a regular woman, Conor.”

“No, you’re an alien. Aren’t you glad I’m a space nerd now?”

My lips twitched. “Shut up.”
