"No. You are not." I argued before muttering "Demanding ass."

I never said anything more for a while because my eyes were starting to flutter shut. I felt my head fall back onto his shoulder before I jerked back up.

"Fine. You can sleep here." I yelled in frustration, giving up "But you are on the sofa."

His smirk was too triumphant. Too aggravating.

"This does not mean I forgive you for keeping Kermit away from me or for kidnapping me." I pointed at him accusingly "I am only letting you stay because it is late. I don't want you falling asleep while driving."

"Careful Medusa." He taunted "You are starting to sound like you care about me."

"Pfft. No." I crossed my arms as I argued "I just don't want to see that motorbike of yours damaged."

"Whatever you say." He replied, his voice teasing.

I walked over to the television and switched it off at the wall before I turned back to face the sofa "Goodnight."

"Night Medusa."

"Don't let the bed bugs bite." I joked before walking away.

"Same goes for you." He rebutted, an underlying meaning to his words "I hope nothing crawls into your bed."

"I don't mind bed bugs crawling into my bed." I replied as I pressed the light switch "As long as it is not a large Lurch."

When I turned away and headed down the hall, the last thing I heard was a husky whisper.

"I can't make any promises."

Racing off to my room, I feared I would stay up thinking about him. The other thing that scared me was that I had purposely left my bedroom door open.

I lay on my bed for a while. I rolled around until the sheets became wrinkled.

The dark ceiling was the thing I focused on as I tried not to think about the occupant of the room down the hall.

Letting out a groan, I pulled the duvet covers back and quickly yet quietly tiptoed through back to him.

It was dark but I could see the huge outline of him on the sofa. He took up the whole space and I figured that it could not have been comfortable.

His large body made everything look small in comparison. He made all my furniture look like it was made for children.

Like I was a few minutes ago, Stone was staring up at the ceiling deep in thought.

That was until his gravelly voice called from the darkness "Medusa, I know you are there."

I could not even see his face, but I knew he was smirking. It was clear from his voice.

"Have you ever seen the structure of The Great Wall of China?" I called to him.

He hummed a deep rough noise "What about it?"

"We are going to build it out of pillows." I told him "You are going to stay on your side of the bed, and I will stay on mine."
