Page 65 of Until We Weren't

“That is some project,” Destiny said.

“I know,” Faith said. “It’s the largest scale of a restoration they’ve ever done. It reminds me of what we’re taking on.”

“Yeah.” Destiny nodded. “I guess what we’re doing is kind of like that. Maybe we should film our project.”

“Are you serious?”

“Why not?” Destiny said excitedly. “Monica was ready to pitch landscape wars to the network. Why not do something like this instead? Our landscape vision will transform that building site.”

Faith chuckled. “Wow, when your confidence comes back, it’s big and bold.”

Destiny raised her eyebrows. “I thought you liked my confidence.”

“Oh, I do,” Faith assured her. “Let’s watch one more episode and then go to bed,” she suggested cautiously. “We’ll be up early in the morning.”

“Are you setting an alarm or…”

“Don’t worry, you’ll know when to wake up.”

“If I wasn’t so tired from all the late nights this week,” Destiny said, “I might not sleep tonight because of the excitement.”

“Oh, God,” Faith muttered. “I hope I haven’t oversold it.”

“Where’s that Faith Fields confidence?” Destiny asked. “It came back in the shack that night and it’s been with you ever since.”

“This is much more important to me than any landscaping project,” Faith said. “You’re more important to me than anything.” She smiled at Destiny and leaned back on the couch next to her.

When the episode was over Destiny leaned forward. “You didn’t tell me I’d be spending the night, so I didn’t bring anything with me to sleep in.”

“I’ve got something you can sleep in and there’s an extra toothbrush on the sink in the bathroom,” Faith said, getting up and walking to the bedroom.

She grabbed a T-shirt for Destiny and found her waiting in the kitchen. “Here you go.”

Destiny held up the shirt and looked at Faith with surprise. “I wondered where this went,” she said. “It’s one of my favorite sleep shirts.”

Faith shrugged. “It’s one of my favorites, too.”

Destiny tilted her head and smirked.

“You can have the bathroom first,” Faith said, grinning. “I’ll change in the bedroom.”

After Destiny finished in the bathroom, Faith squeezed around her and took her turn to brush her teeth. When she came out of the bathroom, Destiny stopped her.

“Hey, it’s not right for me to take your bed,” Destiny said. “I can sleep on the couch.”

“You’re my guest,” Faith said.

“We’re both adults,” Destiny said. “It’s not like we haven’t done this before. Why don’t we both sleep in here?”

“Are you sure?” Faith asked.

Destiny nodded. “I’m sure.” She walked to one side of the bed.

“Uh, that’s the side I usually sleep on,” Faith said tentatively.

Destiny chuckled. “Of course it is.” She got in the bed and scooted over so Faith could get in on her side.

“Thanks,” Faith said. She reached over to turn out the light then rolled onto her back.
