After parking the car, Jesse Rivers turned to wake her up, but the words stuck in his throat when he saw Aiden Shaw walking toward them.
Aiden gently waved his hand, signaling that he shouldn't wake her.
Jesse, understanding, quietly opened the car door and then got out to leave.
Aiden Shaw took the driver's seat, turned his head, and saw her slightly weary face. Her dark brown eyes seemed deeper, and her thick, sharp eyebrows furrowed slightly and effortlessly.
He didn't wake her either, his well-defined fingers gently brushing the deep blue and cream stripes on his suit.
After a moment of silence, he took off his suit jacket and lightly placed it over her.
