I finally made my way to Elijah.
"Is everything alright with you?" Elijah asked, concern written on his face. He must have seen all that was happening.
"Yes, everything is fine. Can we leave now?" I wanted nothing more than to flop on a bed and sleep. I just hope he has a decent place he calls a home.
"Are you that eager to get me under the sheet?" There was a mischievous glint in his eyes.
"What? No… what are you saying?" I was beyond myself with embarrassment. My cheeks had become crimson red and I rubbed my face to hide it.
"What was that for?" I was bewildered when I noticed he was probably teasing me.
"Nothing. Just checking on something." he checked his watch and looked at the doorway.
There was a rushing sound as men in black suits came in and started to clear the way. An elderly man came in, followed by a middle-aged man and a woman that looked like his wife. They were followed by another young man and a red-headed lady.
