Ajay woke up to banging on her apartment door. At first she thought it was her head as she sat up. Her brain felt like it was going to burst out of her skull. "Ugh." She got to her feet and finally made it to the door where the banging was getting more intense, or maybe it was her brain. She opened the door hoping to find Octavio but instead she found Elliot standing there. She stared at him as he stared at her, "Whatcha need Elliot?" There was a bit of awkwardness between them.

She watched him just stare at her. They both just stared at one another with looks of confusion plastered to their faces. She looked down and realized that she was just in her bra and panties. "When the fuck did this happen?" She held the door open, "Get in here." Elliot smirked, "Only if you insist. Have you been drinking?" He could smell the liquor on her right when she had opened the door. Ajay would have rolled her eyes at him if it didn't hurt her head so much, "If ya don't get in here I'm gonna shut the door."

Elliot walked in and stood there as Ajay closed the door behind them. "Ajay..." He stopped and watched her body disappear into the hallway. He couldn't help but smile when he saw her ass. He quickly snapped out if and followed her into her bedroom. Ajay pulled some clothes out of the dresser and tossed them onto the bed. "Ya mind if I grab a shower while ya talk?" She could still smell the liquor on her skin.

"Do you need some company?" The words blurted out of his mouth but he wasn't ashamed because he meant it. She didn't bother to give him a response as she headed towards the bathroom. He really didn't have a choice so he followed her across the hall and waited outside of the bathroom as she got into the shower. One again he admired her backside before it disappeared into the bathroom.

His thoughts were abruptly interrupted as she spoke over the water from the shower, "What did ya come over here for anyway?" Elliot leaned against the wall in the hallway. "Renee was doing recon for Octane's date with Yoko." Ajay punched the wall in the shower. Mistake, her hand immediately regretted her brain's decision. She shook her hand as if it would get rid of some of the pain.

The sound of something loud falling or crashing into the wall prompted Elliot to push the bathroom door open. He peeked inside of the bathroom hoping to get a glimpse of her naked body, "Are you okay?" Ajay nodded as she finished getting cleaned up. "Yah." Elliot waited to continue as he watched parts of her naked body through the foggy shower glass. He could faintly remember what her body looked like wet and wanting.

Elliot fought back the urge to remove his own clothing and join her in the shower. The thought of their wet, naked bodies against one another started to make his pants tight. He sighed and pushed the thought away, "Anyway, I was with Natalie, Loba, and MRVN. We got the artifact that Loba was after but Natalie got injured." Ajay rushed out of the shower and past Elliot, "What da fuck Elliot. Ya should have said that sooner." Elliot watched as she rushed past him with her wet, naked body.

He quickly followed her and watched her get dressed. "How bad did she get injured?" She threw on the essentials, as well a black tank top, a pair of black shorts, a black hoodie, and her favorite boots. Elliot rubbed his forehead, "Bad." She threw her hair up in a messy bun and picked up D.O.C. She packed her drone up and threw her backpack on. "Take me to her." He a smirk on his face, "Well that was fast." Ajay didn't seem amused as they left the apartment.

The early morning sun burned Ajay's eyes as they made it outside of the apartment complex. Ajay was surprised when Elliot took her to his bar. When they entered the bar it was empty. "This better not be some kind of joke Elliot." After they entered the bar Elliot closed and locked the door behind them. "As much as I enjoyed my morning with you, I promise I am not messing around." He smiled, "For once."

He grabbed Ajay's hand "so soft" and led her to a door behind the bar. He pulled her through the door. On the other side of the door was the kitchen. He quickly led her through the kitchen. On the other side of the kitchen there was another door; which he led her towards. Elliot opened the door and pulled her down a path of stairs. Ajay had another surprise that morning when she found that in the basement of the Paradise Lounge was an elaborate work space and small living area.
