I don't push him away.

I really don't want to.

He kisses my cheek and I finally turn to face him slightly.

We make eye contact and it's only for a moment.

He was asking me for permission.

And I gave it to him.

Our lips connect for the second time and it's not filled with lust or salacity.

It's filled with inclination and warmth. Longing to be with each other.

But it just can't happen.

When we both pull away we rest our foreheads together.

This kiss doesn't mean anything. It can't.

We're just two people who have some sort of attraction to each other.

But it's a friendly attraction. It can't be anything more than that.

"I think I saw him come up here." We heard Greyson say.

"Sugar daddy are you up there?" Greyson yells and we both laugh quietly.

"Greyson stop acting gay!" Veronica tells him.

"Would you have a problem if I was?" He asked her.

"No but if you're gonna be my fucking boyfriend stop flirting with Elijah." She snaps at him.

"Sugar daddy!" he yells again.

There's a loud thump and groan following shortly after.

Elijah takes my hand and we stand up.

"Stop it Greyson!"

"I'm sorry, geez!"

He gets down and then he help me down too.. By my hips.

"Ohh, y'all were having a quickie on the roof?" Greyson asked standing up and Veronica hit him in the dick.

He fell to the ground again.

"This is such an abusive relationship." He says his voice strained.

"Stop saying dumb shit." Veronica tells him.

"I was stopping a suicide attempt." Elijah tells her.

"What?!" Veronica panics.

"It was not! I wasn't going to jump
off the fucking roof you asshole.. I was just thinking." I tell her.

"You've been doing a lot of that lately." Greyson says after he recovers, standing more feet away from his girlfriend this time.

"Mhm.." I hum in response.

Ben, Adriano and a few men start making their way towards us.

Subconsciously I move closer to Elijah. Standing behind him slightly, holding the back of dress shirt.

"All security systems for all safe houses have been upgraded. We're working on maximizing security for this house. But Lilah... Has injured a decent amount of our best soldiers.. So most security will in fact will be training." Adriano told him.

"Sorry." I apologize.

"Don't worry about it Lilah.. That's fine. When it's necessary, bring Terrazza Dorisris." Elijah tells him.

Who?

"Hopefully it doesn't get to that point." Ben crosses his arms.

"Yeah.. Aren't they like.. Super dangerous?" Veronica asks.

"And funny." Greyson adds.

"That's their trauma talking." Ben rolls his eyes.

"Is that it?" Elijah asks them.

"Yes.. Thought you might want to see the new security we got installed." Adriano tells him.

He nods.

"Wanna come?" Elijah asks me.

"Yeah.." I hesitate for a moment.

"Well let's hurry before it becomes too late for you to go outside." Ben says and we all start our walk to the stairs.
