** Eli **
Eli was still feeling grumpy about the last minute weekend schedule change. He'd had the next two days all planned out already — spend a short and easy Saturday's cruise without ever letting Harper leave his line of sight, then enjoy the Sunday afterward having her all to himself. He had even planned out all the things he'd do to her while in the privacy of their room … which, needless to say, was no longer nearly as feasible on this closely packed weekend ship.
Nevertheless, he was still going to give it a try. Starting with getting her back within his physical proximity first.
But for some reason, Harper didn't seem to be on the same page with him about this. Her eyes darted toward the room to his left. "Oh … Um, that sounds … lovely …" she said a bit hesitantly. "But … Did you mean the rooms next door to your current one? Wouldn't those already be taken by other guests?"
