Creatures of the Dark

"I was just going to sleep, I couldn't settle last night."

"Oh, why didn;t you say? I wouldn't have asked you to come if I knew, I would have let you sleep."

"No, no. I wanted to meet him."

"Yeah but I would have rearranged." She told him. "How are you not dead here?" She asked him with fake seriousness. "You don't sleep, you get beat up and then don't tell me about it, I hardly see you eat properly." She told him. "Do you have a secret life that I don't know about?"

"Beaten up and don't tell you? You act as if I walk around black and blue constantly." He chuckled. "And I do eat, you've seen me eat today."

"What about that day I had to bandage you up?" She asked. "You still haven't told me about it." She reminded him. "So are you in some stupid secret fight club?"

"The number one rule about fight club is you don't talk about fight club." He joked. "You bandaged my hand, I am clumsy with chopping potatoes, that was all."

She raised an eyebrow. "You seriously pulled that reference?"

"I know, I should be a stand up comedian." He laughed.

Belle could not help but laugh.

"You don't have to worry about me," Elliott finalised. "I'm good at looking after myself, okay?"

"Elliot, you're my best friend,"She told him. "It's my job to worry about you, but if you want me to stop then that's okay."

"I would very much like you to stop worrying about me, yes. When I give you a reason to then, fine, but I haven't yet."

“Okay, sorry.” She told him, sipping her drink.

"I wasn't telling you off, don't apologise."

She looked to him. “I’d best let you get to bed anyway…fancy an ice cream for the way back?”

"As long as you haven't made it," He grinned

She pulled a tongue at him before she got up to get them an ice cream each

Elliott chuckled

She came back with their ice cream his favourite she was already eating hers

"Honeycomb. Great. Thanks."

“You’re welcome.” She smiled

(( do we want to skip again? To the rest of your idea? ))

((Yeah sure shall we say that he went to visit Damian and th and when she gets hurt? It would mean him
