The elevator alerted Meredith that they had reached the Lobby floor as it binged and opened up. She still was resting her head on Brayden's shoulder as people poured out of the elevator in a rush to head to lunch and some who were done for the week, which included her.
Brayden let go of her hand and with his hand at the small of her back he guided her out of the elevator. They walked quickly through the lobby towards the front door and with the crowd around them there was no time to say goodbye to Ben for the week let alone even anyone else.
They reached the front doors and stepped out onto the sidewalk where Sean waited with a pleasant smile holding the door for them. As soon as he saw Brayden's face his smile vanished.
