Tarquin looked at her, his eyes softening, "Can we talk calmly once you've cooled down?"
Elysia muttered, "You were the one who got mad first!"
"So, I apologized, didn't I? I was too impulsive and my attitude was off. It just irks me seeing you with him, especially after I've told you to keep your distance."
"I explained it already, didn't I? I bumped into him by accident when I went downstairs. You just won't believe me!"
Tarquin’s lips twitched, "Be honest with me, do you like Keith?"
Speechless and on the verge of snapping back, Elysia caught the earnest look on his face and swallowed her words, grumbling instead, "I don't! I've said it a million times!"
Relief washed over Tarquin, settling his restless heart. Though he still had his reservations about her looking so dolled up around Keith, as long as she didn't fancy Keith, it was okay.
He reached out, gently patting Elysia's head in a soothing gesture, "There, there, let's not be angry."
"Get lost!"
Tarquin chuckled, his mood instantly lifting. He had never known what it was like to truly care for someone until now. Joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness, all because of her.
"Let's go, I brought you breakfast. All your favorites."
Elysia stood still, "I have a question for you."
"What is it?" he asked.
Elysia hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Are you planning to rent apartment 1803?"
Tarquin was taken aback, "How did you find out?"
Their building, Blossom, housed four apartments per floor. The Blooms lived in 1801, Keith in 1802, and the other two apartments were 1803 and 1804. Since Keith refused to sell, Tarquin had negotiated with the other tenants and settled on 1803. Not for rent, but to purchase outright. It was currently being fast-tracked for renovation so he could move in right away. He hadn't told her because he wanted to surprise her once he moved in.
