“That only happened a few years back. Your necklace is already more than twenty years old.” Olivia nodded seriously. “Yeah. Making fakes must be a tradition then.”
Eugene was amused by that reply, and he laughed. Olivia laughed too. “I better hide this tomorrow, or they’d think I stole it.” Eugene held her hand. “What are you afraid of? We didn’t do anything wrong.”
Olivia nodded. “I know, but I’d rather deal with less problems. I’m going back now. You get some sleep.” And she tried to leave. Eugene held her hand. “Hold on a second.” Olivia yawned. “I’m tired. I want to sleep.”
Eugene wouldn’t let her go. “You can sleep here.” The corner of her lips twitched. Sleep here? Are you kidding? I know you. You might look like a cute little puppy now, but if I actually sleep here, you’d become a big bad wolf in moments. “No. I’m going home. I’m used to sleeping in my own bed.”
Eugene sighed. “Fine.” Olivia was surprised that he agreed so quickly. She thought she would have to spend some time convincing him. Well, that was fast. But just when she was about to pull her hand away, he stood up and said seriously, “I’ll have to go with you then.”
Hey, do you think I’m stupid? Do you think I don’t know what you’re thinking? Coming back with me is the same thing as me staying here. “Why are you coming with me? I’m going home to sleep.”
Eugene looked at her innocently. “Don’t you need someone to warm your bed?” “No.”
