A promise fulfilled
Aug. 16th, 2014 07:17 pmEric unlocks the door - and locks it behind them once they are inside.
The room looks much as it did the last time, Emcee was there. A framed picture of a moonlit ruin has been added to one of the walls and there is a stack of file folders on the desk as well as a couple of books.
The bed is made and the decanter on the small table seems to have been refilled.
Eric walks inside, the way you do when you own a place, leaving his flip flops by the door, and unzipping his track suit top.
He turns to look at Emcee, his gaze heavy and measuring.

But thoughts like these are what the wine is for.
And so he shuts off the light.
It's a little disconcerting how well he already knows how to navigate Eric's room in the dark.
"I will most likely wake up perhaps an hour or two before you," he says, as he settles onto the bed. Above the covers.

He should question Emcee's desire to sleep here. He ought certainly question his own lack of concern about him sleeping here.
But not now.
Another deep, conscious breath.

Stupid? No, certainly not.
I dream that he is right there. Next to me. And then I wake up.
Like the girl felt for Godric, he just doesn't want Eric to be alone.
