I didn’t get the internship with Vogue, the job that I wanted more than anything, but somehow I was okay with it. Then I remembered why. I opened my eyes and saw Axel next to me. He was wrapped around my body, keeping me warm and comfortable. His hand was anchored in my hair, his fingers glued to the strands. His features were relaxed, looking beautiful and breathtaking. I missed this. When he came into my room last night I didn’t have the strength to keep him away. I wanted those strong hands to wrap around me, to give me the solace I craved most. I was weak and let my defenses fall down. Now he was still there. I wanted to keep still and enjoy his closeness for another moment. Having him there was a dream come true. I craved his touch. Even though he had a girlfriend I still wanted to keep him all to myself. After I stared at his face for a few minutes, committing it to memory, I left the bed and started to get ready for class.
