The night dragged on like any old night; the only difference was that… I had to stay in the guest room, which would be fine under any normal circumstance, but since I'm not the only guest… I have to sleep near Nil.
Sleeping near other people isn't something I've had to get used to; it's a little awkward, one could say. Nil wasn't bothered by it, so I acted as though I was fine with it too. All that aside, this room isn't very spacious either; I would say there's about a foot between us, which, keep in mind, is closer than I've slept to my own sister or family.
Ugh, I'm rambling alone again… This is why I couldn't get to sleep.
Nil stirred, shifting over just slightly, removing 2 inches between us that had previously held comfort.
I have to stay strong and get used to it; I'm not going to be in denial any longer! It's only nerve-wracking, it's not uncomfortable at all! Any guy would love a situation like this!... For a whole week…
"Goodnight," I whispered to a sleeping Nil. Turning my back and shutting my eyes for the last time that night.
