Page 35 of The Heir: Part 1

Crawling beneath the covers of the bed I roll to my side, place my palm beneath my cheek and close my eyes. My cell beeps again and I sigh. I want to talk to him, but I don’t at the same time. He belongs to my sister, he’s her friend so I should stay away, but even despite my own warning I click in to see what he text.

Carson – What hotel are you at?

Me – The Haywood.

Carson – Room number?

Me – I’m not up for visitors.

Carson – Room number?

I don’t know why I’m stalling, I’m going to tell him, I always was, even though I know I shouldn’t.

Me – 459.

I wait for his reply, but it doesn’t come. Refusing to admit how disappointed I am, I close my eyes and fall asleep, ready for today to be over.
