Sabine's hold on the covers only tightened as Cassius chuckled. And she fought to keep hidden, but he won in the end and lifted the blanket enough to join her beneath it. She held her breath as his body slid close the lights dimmed around them. A moment later, his palm was against the side of her face, and his lips on hers. Sabine's lashes fluttered closed as she finally breathed in deep.
And when the kiss ended, Sabine was left wanting more.
As if he knew – or could sense it – Cassius said he'd been looking forward to this, too. Her eyes widened, a rush of excitement blossomed in her chest. Then, he rolled onto his back and mimicked her words. “Oh gosh,” she muttered, and turned her face into her pillow for a moment. She was never going to live this down.
The awkward tension didn't linger for long as they settled on a holo-film or rather, Sabine picked one and Cassius simply agreed. Sabine sat up in bed, propped up against a couple of pillows and the covers drawn up to her chin as she watched Zeltrons in Love. She laughed, but tried to muffle the sound against the blankets to keep from waking Cassius as he slept by her side. He'd been out before the end of the first act, but she didn't mind. She'd stolen several glances at him, the light of the holo-projector illuminating his sleeping features in dim light. And it really hit her then... just how much she liked him.
When the movie was done, she dabbed the tears from her eyes and sighed. So good—such a heartfelt ending. Yeah, it might have been a little cheesy, but that was the best part... wasn't it?
Leaning over to the side, she placed a gentle kiss on Cassius' cheek before drifting off to sleep herself.
