He opened his mouth but then shut it.
“Go get her cat bed. She can sleep here,” | offered.
Alexander was shaking his head before | even finished my sentence. “I'd have to move her litter box, too.”
“Why?”
He gavea look like | should know the answer. “She's a kitten, Olivia. She’s going to have to use the bathroom

“Alright,” | agreed. “I'll stay the night in the guestroom.”
His satisfied smile should have pissedoff, but it unfortunately just made him more attractive. “Good. I'll wait
for you while you gather your things.”
Five minutes later, | had an overnight bag packed, and | was ready to go. Despite my rational mind reminding me
that this decision wasn’t smart, as | stepped onto the elevator, my skin was tingling with excitement. My body
was coming alive at the thought of spending the night in the sapartment as Alexander.
But as soon as the elevator doors closed and | felt sweat drip down my back, my panic began to rise. Why the
