Chapter 13

Slowly blinking awake, Fiona yawned and wondered why she felt so rested. It’d been years, or maybe never, since she’d woken up feeling ready for the day. She was so used to running on empty, it’d become second nature to her. However, with the sun shining through her windows and warming her face, she felt peaceful and satisfied.

Until she realized those weren’t her windows and she wasn’t in her room.

Remembering she was in Kieran’s bed, a nervous flutter ran through her.

She reached for the nightstand and clutched her phone. Pressing the power button, she saw the screen didn’t respond. Dread filled her, and she told herself to calm down. She’d forgotten to plug in her phone before falling asleep last night and, in doing so, had slept right past her alarm.

Shea was with Dee and was most likely fine, but still, Fiona needed to charge her phone and check. She spent every morning waking up next to and caring for her sister, so Shea’s potential reaction to this change in her morning schedule made Fiona anxious.

Turning her head, she found Kieran’s sleeping face only inches from her. His arms were curled around the pillow beneath his head as he slept on his stomach. He had one leg draped across both of hers, and his breathing was soft and rhythmic.

After an excruciatingly long minute, she managed to check her messages and found a text from Dee telling her that Shea had slept all night without waking. Blushing for a moment as she tried to push the thought out of her mind that Dee certainly knew what she had been doing last night and who she’d been doing it with, Fiona tapped out a reply asking if Shea was doing well this morning, too.

It’d been a while since Shea had gone through a morning without her. Fiona hoped that Dee’s presence would be enough to keep her sister from feeling too disrupted. Her fears were pushed away a moment later when Dee’s quick response assured her that Shea was eating her eggs and had gotten herself ready that morning without any issues. Despite her initial panic, Fiona trusted Dee and knew that Shea was fine. As much as she wanted to, she knew she couldn’t coddle Shea forever.

After sending a final thank-you text, she put her phone down to let it keep charging before tiptoeing back to the bedroom. With each step she took, she was cognizant of the sore throbbing between her legs. She
