HOW ROWE FALLS APART

Ros’s arms loosen around me, and I slide off his lap, raining pillows and our blanket to the floor. “What do we need to bring? We’ll get that ready and then head out.”

An affectionate smile spreads over Ros’s lips as he gazes up at me, not making any effort to rise. “We have to wait until dusk.”

Confused, I glance toward the front door. “Isn’t this place entirely underground? Why can’t we go now?”

“This area is entirely underground, but the coroner is back at the medical facility where you were patched up.” Ros catches my hand and tugs me back onto the couch beside him, dumping the heating pad back on my stomach. “Let’s finish the movie, then we can get some sleep and leave at nightfall.”

I turn my head to stare at him. “Being a vampire has a lot of unexpected limitations.”

He slouches lower on the couch until our shoulders touch and turns his head to face me. “Sunlight is basically the only limitation. But you get used to compensating for it.”

My brows pinch together. “But wouldn’t you prefer to get it done with right away? Why call now if we have to wait to go?”

His shoulder lifts against mine. “To give me time to prepare myself?”

“I bet the coroner likes to pull band-aids off really, really slowly,” I mutter darkly.

Ros laughs. “Probably. But even if we weren’t restricted by sunlight, there’d be no point going now.”

“Why?” I ask.

“Because they’ll be closed by the time we arrive,” Ros informs me. “They’re run by vampires, so they close thirty minutes before sunrise to give everyone time to get to a secure location.”

“I guess that makes sense.” I lean forward slightly before digging my shoulder into Ros’s armpit until he takes the hint and wraps an arm around me. Properly ensconced now, I gesture at the TV. “Let the sappiness continue.”
