I was heading to bed when Daniel appeared. "Is everything okay?" he whispered when we were inside my room with the door closed.
"Sure."
His look called me a liar. "You and Rafe. Something's up."
I hesitated and the urge to tell him everything was so strong, I had to clamp my jaw shut.
"No," I said quickly. "Everything's fine. I just…It's a little much right now. I thought he was dead, and he isn't, and…I'm feeling a lot of things." Which was the truth.
"Okay. I just wanted to make sure there wasn't a problem."
