[Stop staring at me.]
"Stop staring at me," Nathan says, not bothering to open his eyes. Ever since he can remember Nathan has been able to sense what Haley's feeling just a foot away from him in bed.
Haley smiles, her elbow propping her head up as she lays on her side, but she doesn't say anything.
"I'm fine," he assures his wife, his eyes still shut. Haley doesn't let up, Nathan sighing then and finally opening his eyes, turning his head to the side to meet his wife's gaze. "I'm OK, Haley."
"I know," she replies, her hand coming to her husband's cheek. Leaning in, she gives him a light kiss. "I can't worry about my husband?"
"You can," he responds, moving closer, his legs touching his wife's. "But, you want your husband to be able to sleep." A sigh follows, Nathan drinking in the moment.
"Do I," Haley asks, a mischievous look in her eye.
Nathan grins, shrugging, his eyebrow raising. "I don't know. Do you?"
