Kevin didn’t answer.

 

Emily thought he was deciding, or perhaps that he was thinking of a place where he would take her, some dimly-lit nightclub south of 14

street where they could move anonymously in each other’s arms. But after another moment he still hadn’t said anything.

 

She twisted to look at him.

Kevin stirred briefly, but then his body settled even more deeply into the mattress. Emily smiled and put a hand lightly on his forehead. She took it away and kissed him there, and then she rose quietly from the bed. She would come back later, and they would talk again.

 

He looked so peaceful; she would let him sleep.

 

She supposed he had some catching up to do.
