I kinda dropped the ball, keeping my feelings to myself."
When he explained about his shifts, she grinned and leaned to kiss him. "I think a cat suits you, just fine." She murmured, nudging the books out of her way, so she could snuggle against his side.
"Since... you don't like sharing, does that mean I won't have to worry about..." She bit her lip. "I didn't like being second... But if that's something you want..."
