“THANKS,” I SAID AS Josh handed me a steaming cup of decaf English Breakfast tea while I relaxed on the sofa. Normally I was a coffee drinker, but there was something about a warm cup of tea that I found soothing. It was now well after 1:00 a.m., and Josh and I had finally made it back up to our apartment. Our relaxing evening with our families had been tainted by the incident upon our return. We’d just spent more than an hour talking to the police, and I was looking forward to crawling into bed and hopefully sleeping for a long, long time.

“You’re welcome,” he replied, his voice deep as he sank down beside me. He yawned, looking like he was ready to give in to sleep as well.

“You should go to bed, Josh. I’ll be fine, and as soon as I finish my tea, I’m heading to bed myself.”

“Are you sure?”

“Yeah. I know you’re exhausted,” I said, glancing over at him. Dark circles were evident under his eyes, and he looked a little pale despite his tanner complexion from months spent in the desert. I knew it had been a long two days back for him, and he probably needed his rest even more than I did at this point.

“All right,” he said, getting to his feet. “You know where to find me if you need anything.” He bent down and brushed his lips across my forehead. It was done in a brotherly, affectionate kind of way, but I couldn’t help but notice the butterflies in my stomach at the warmth of his lips against my skin. I was really going to have to get my feelings in check if we were going to stay roommates. This was Josh for crying out loud—I’d known him since we were kids. He certainly wasn’t swooning over me, so I’m not sure what exactly my own problem was.

“Goodnight,” I said, giving him a small smile.

I watched him walk down the hall as I finished sipping my tea. A few minutes later, I took my mug into the kitchen and turned out the lights. I stopped in the bathroom to quickly wash my face and brush my teeth and then finally went into my own bedroom. I opened my dresser drawer, pulling out a tank top to wear with my panties to bed. At last, I finally switched out the light and crawled under the covers. What started out as a relaxing Saturday had turned into the longest day imaginable, and I hoped that tomorrow I could put this entire day behind me.
