Anna woke up in the same spot she fell asleep: Jack’s chest. It was still dark outside. She kissed Jack’s cheek, & quietly got up. She slowly opened the door & stepped out in the hall to look at the clock. It was 4:30 AM, & Anna wondered why she felt so awake. “I’ll never get back to sleep” she thought. She went down the stairs & outside the hotel to sit in the night air thinking the warmth would make her sleepy. She’d only been sitting for a few minutes when Jack busted through the doors with terror on his face.
“Jack what is it?” Anna stood up.
Suddenly relief swarmed his face. “Anna! I didn’t know where you were! I woke up & you were gone & you weren’t in the bathroom!”
“I’m sorry, I woke up & couldn’t go back to sleep. So I decided to come out here.” Anna sat back down & tugged on Jack’s hand to sit with her. Once he did, Anna cuddled up close to him.
“I’m sorry I scared you,” she said getting sleepy again.
“It’s ok. I’m just paranoid.” Jack smiled.
Anna smiled too & looked up to kiss his neck.
