Chapter 1012: I thought I’m the only one
Meanwhile...
"You should sleep now." Nina sat on the edge of the bed, her eyes on Finn. "It’s getting late, and did you forget what the doctor said? You should rest as much as you can."
Finn smiled at her and nodded, scooting over slightly to the side. "Why don’t you sleep as well?"
"..." Nina glanced at the extra space beside him. "We still can’t fit in there."
"We can if you hug me."
Her brows rose in surprise, her cheeks blushing. "Finn."
"I know the rule," he persuaded, holding her hand gently. "I just want to... cuddle. I’m fine, and I don’t need this much space all for myself. However, if you don’t want to, I can understand. Don’t worry."
Hesitation flickered in her eyes before a shallow breath escaped her nostrils. "It’s not that I don’t want to. It’s just that I don’t want you to feel uncomfortable."
"I am more comfortable with you."
"Then... okay."
Having said that, Nina lifted her feet and carefully positioned herself beside him. Surprisingly, the bed was bigger than she expected. She didn’t even have to squeeze beside him, as there was plenty of space. But then again, Finn had lost a lot of weight.
Lying on her side, she stared at his face. "Better now?"
