Outside, Aurora's voice suddenly cut through the night.
"Felicity, something's gone down at Craig's depot, I gotta head over with him! You can take my car, drop off my brother at home, will you?"
Without waiting for an answer, she tossed the car keys and dashed off with Craig!
"..."
Felicity was about to suggest letting Miles drive himself home when she caught a whiff of alcohol on him.
Great.
This was indeed a tall order.
She had every reason to believe Abigail did this on purpose.
Otherwise... what was so urgent at the depot that she had to tag along?
Glancing at the car keys, then at Miles, Felicity sighed, "Can you even stand up on your own?"
"I can."
Miles caught her hesitation and reluctance, so he softly said, "Just give me the keys, I don't want to trouble you."
"And have you DUI back home?"
"I can call a cab."
"..."
See?
That's Miles for you!
His character, unchangeable. Even if he really didn't want to part ways with Felicity, deep down, he'd still instinctively maintain his manners and dignity.
If it were Calvin, he'd probably just grin and bear any scolding, never saying he could get home by himself.
It wasn't that Felicity thought Miles's gentlemanly behavior was wrong, but... it just wasn't for her.
"Stop being stubborn. If you can walk, get up and into the car. I'll drive you home."
After all, she was already out and about at this ungodly hour, might as well go the whole nine yards.
"No need, I can handle—"
"You can handle it, can you?" Felicity cut him off, her tone a bit sharper, "Alright, alright, here's your keys! Drive yourself home then, I'm out."
With a frown and a turn, she was ready to leave!
She had thought she wouldn't return before leaving for Anglonia.
"I'll leave the car out here. If Abigail asks for the keys tomorrow, you can hand them to her."
Handing the car keys to Miles, she prepared to leave.
"How will you get back?"
"I'll call a cab!"
Miles frowned, "It's too late, and it's not safe for a girl by herself."
"What then? Are you going to DUI me home, and then I drive you back, and then you drive me again?" She tried to keep the tone light and humorous, not wanting their last encounter to end on a sour note.
But the next second, Felicity was shocked to see blood seeping through the bandage on his forehead!
The bright red stain was spreading through the fabric!
"Your head!"
Touching it, Miles found a bit of blood, "It's nothing, I'll just change the bandage. The doctor gave me some spares."
"..., should I help you?"
