#Chapter 187: Jealousy

NOLAN It was still dark, a long ways till dawn, but Yena was awake and stirring at Nolan’s side. Usually she slept in when she could. “Morning,” he said, stretching. “You’re up early.” “Yeah.” She glanced at the electric rectangle of light that was the screen of her cell phone. “I told Evan I would meet up with him today. And I know you and I have that train to catch at noon, so I asked if he could meet me early at the bakery by our parents’ house, so I can get back in time.” Nolan rolled onto his side, reaching out to stroke Yena’s thigh. He was not feeling wonderful about her rushing out of bed right now for the purpose of meeting up with Evan. “What does Evan need to meet up with you for?” “I don’t know. He sent me a weird text last night. Said he needs to talk to me about something in person.” “Huh. Well, alright.” Nolan dared to slip his hand a little deeper down the inside of Yena’s thigh. Her body was still warm from having been under the covers with him all night.
