Chapter 10 CHAPTER

"Ha-ha!" I shout in victory and hop right back off. "I think you're just about ready to take on the world." He turns to smirk at me. I laugh and Joel does too. "You're a weird bunch." He says and I laugh before turning to Cliff again. "I'm gonna grab some water." I announce and stupidly stare at the floor, turning to walk toward the kitchen. I hit a hard chest in the process.

"Oops sor-" I start but when I see Elijah was there smiling at me and my breath caught in my throat. "Well hello there." He chuckles. "Hi." I laugh nervously. He pecks my lips and gives me smile. " I agree with Cliff. You are ready to take on the world. Which is why I wanted to talk to you about something." He tells me. I grin. "Alright, talk about what..." I ask, trailing off at the sad look in his eyes. "You better sit down, babe." He tells me and I do.
