I wake up to the feeling of my hair being pushed off my forehead. A gentle hand smooths across it, and I feel the effect of the cooling patch instantly as I let out a small noise of relief.

“Thanks, Luke.” The soft laugh I hear has me cracking my eyes open, and I see Violet hovering above me, humour in her eyes and a small grin on her face. “Violet.”

“Luke hasn’t come by yet.”

I’m glad for that because I don’t even know how I’d begin to explain why Violet is in my room right now.

“You’ve only been asleep for about an hour. Your forehead felt hot, though, so I wanted to help you cool down a bit.”

An hour? She’s been sat here for an hour while I slept?

“You should have woken me up. You didn’t have to stay.”

Her hand continues to press the cooling patch on my forehead, and I find myself angling my head up to lean into her touch.

“I wanted to,” she says simply.

I close my eyes, relief and gratitude washing over me. There’s no doubt in my mind now that Violet still feels something for me. It might not be the same way I feel about her, but the fact that she’s here, that she stayed while I slept, and is taking care of me right now, says more than any words ever could.

“Thank you,” is all I manage to get out before the calming motion of her hand on my head sends me off to sleep again.
