Leah was very frustrated when Ernest remained quiet. He was most likely asleep.

Normally, Ernest would have woken up and heard what was going on next door. As a man, he would have done something by now. However, he didn't do anything.

Leah figured that Ernest was probably truly fast asleep.

She waited for a while as the noise from next door grew louder.

How could Leah fall asleep with the increasing grunts and moans coming from next door?

After a moment of silence, she had no choice but to get up.

Getting out of bed, she walked barefoot to the door and laid on the floor to listen to the sounds next door.

She could hear more now.

Leah muttered in a low voice, "Not only do you not sleep at night, but you're also disturbing others' sleep too."

Leah's tone was so disgruntled, Ernest couldn't help but smile.

It seemed that she was bored as she failed to fall asleep.

He didn't move. He just wanted to see what Leah would do.

Leah kept laying on the floorboard as she muttered, "Gary is such a big strong man. I wonder if someone as frail as Celeste can take it. Dang, I'm quite worried about her."

The corners of Ernest's mouth twitched. Leah was so adorable.

She was even worried about Celeste instead of herself.

Ernest remained still, observing what was going on.

Leah listened to Gary and Celeste for some time, but they did not show any signs of stopping.

Leah felt that listening to them was getting tedious. Hence, she got up and walked towards the bed. She lay down and faced Ernest.

She propped up her arms on the pillow, looking at Ernest in the dark.

Although she couldn't see anything, she still watched him.

After a while, she muttered in a low voice, "Ernest,

are you really asleep?"

Ernest did not answer.

"You don't look like you'd be so mean to me. How could you fall asleep so early?" Leah complained. She was very annoyed that he'd slept so early. "Moreover, don't you think I'll be consumed by desire when you hear them?"

Ernest was even more amused. How could she be so cute?

She sounded as if she was going to burst into flame.

He did not say anything because he wanted Leah to realize that she wanted to be intimate just as much as he did.

Now that she didn't have it, she felt very uncomfortable.

Meanwhile, Leah continued, "Look at how Gary and Celeste just go for it without a care in the world. Shouldn't your rooms be soundproofed?"

In fact, their rooms were soundproofed, it just wasn't as good as Heinz and Grace's room. That was because they were afraid that they wouldn't hear it if the kids were in trouble. Hence, it was not completely soundproofed by design.

Gary and Ernest adjoining rooms. Furthermore, Gary and Celeste did not bother trying to control their volume, so they could hear them from Ernest's room.

Hearing no response, Leah sighed deeply. Since she couldn't fall asleep, she had no choice but to listen to Ernest's steady breathing.

It was easy to be bold in the dark, her imagination started to run wild.

Leah also felt that there was something off with Ernest.

It wasn't normal for him to fall asleep so early.

Leah pondered for a long time before she realized that Ernest may be faking his sleep.

He might be punishing her.

Was he punishing her for not letting him sleep with her?.

He was letting her lay awake listening to Gary and Celeste having s*x next door.

When the thought crossed her mind, her hands started to roam.

Her hand reached for Ernest and grabbed hold of his member.

Leah was almost scalded after touching him, and she exclaimed, "Oh, you're still awake!"

Ernest's breathing became rapid after Leah grabbed him.

Leah was startled too, but she did not let go. Instead, she kept holding on to it as she said, "You're faking your sleep! Well, I've got you now, Ernest!"

However, Ernest grabbed her chin and rubbed at her lips roughly with his thumb. "You're playing with fire, Leah."

Leah's lips went numb.

She wanted to retreat, but Ernest gave her no opportunity to do that. He grabbed her and kissed her.

"Mmph!" Leah's voice was muffled.

Ernest took the opportunity to murmur, "You can't sleep, can you? It's been more than two hours. What's wrong, Leah?"

"Didn't I say that I wasn't used to this bed? That's why I can't fall asleep." Leah randomly chose an excuse. She wouldn't admit that she couldn't fall asleep without s*x.

"Really?" Ernest laughed. "I think I heard someone say she was about to be consumed by desire."

Leah blushed and immediately retorted, "You must have misheard me. You were sleeping, so how could you have heard me? I didn't say anything."

Leah refused to admit to anything.

However, she'd forgotten to let go of Ernest's nether region.

Feeling amused, Ernest said, "Then tell me, what's your hand up to?"

Leah was shocked for a second before she realized she was still holding him in her hand. However, letting go would mean that she'd lost.

"Well, this is my leverage over you. You've been pretending to be asleep this whole time. I've got you now," Leah retorted. "Why aren't you sleeping?"

It was obvious why he didn't sleep, but Leah wanted to see what excuses he would come up with.

"You should know why I'm not asleep," Ernest replied.

Leah pouted. Ernest had already kissed her passionately in the dark, she felt a pull towards him too. Of course, she understood what he wanted.

"I don't know why you faked sleep," Leah replied with a satisfied smirk on her face.

Since she couldn't sleep, then no one was allowed to sleep!

Ernest chuckled, low and deep in the dark.

"My body misses you, Leah. It wants to pay you a

visit."

Leah blushed. "Ernest, you're so bold."

"And I didn't expect you to be so daring." Ernest smiled. "No matter how much I want to do it, I respected your wishes and did not touch you. However, you decided to make a move on me and turn me on, so you need to take responsibility."
