Eliana was with Fez in his store when Cal Jacobs and his stupid ego showed up. It was in the evening, and she was enjoying a cherry-flavoured sucker near the counter when she was... whatever the opposite of being graced is... with Cal's face.
Eliana felt a tad uncomfortable, even while wearing red jean shorts and a grey crewneck she still felt exposed like she was caught doing something she shouldn't have.
"Good evening," he announced his presence to everyone in the store... being Eliana, Fez, Faye and Ashtray. Faye being a friend of a friend that Fez was doing a favour for (more on that later) but Eliana found her to be charming in an odd way. Ash still wasn't in love with the idea of Eliana being back around, but she knew he liked her more than he must like Cal.
"What's up, man?" Fez looked to the older man.
"You got any spearmint gum?" Cal asked.
"I don't know, man."
"The gum is right over there," Eliana took the sucker out of her mouth, pointing with it in between her manicured hands.
"Oh, I wasn't aware this was your store," Cal retorted. Eliana rolled her eyes as soon as his back was turned.
"It's a family business," Fez said.
"Do your parents own it?" Cal said as he played with a bag of chips in his hands, almost teasing the teenagers as they listened to nothing but the bag crinkle.
"You usually ask this many questions, man?"
"Just you."
"Are you a cop?" Faye asked as she spoke up from her place sitting on top of the ice cream box. Eliana tapped her shoulders against the counter, both girls eyeing the man intently, even if Eliana was a bit more focused than the wandering Faye was.
"No. Just a concerned father."
Cal finally left after a lot of loitering and clear snooping that the four teens didn't welcome at Fez's store. So later on at Fez's home, Eliana was clearly a little bit on edge. That and she was a bit sore from everything she and Fez had been doing. Between Fez, school, sex, work, home life... everything was starting to pile on and she was proud of herself for not lighting a cigarette the minute her heart faltered.
"Oh... I'm sorry. I fell," Faye mumbled to Fez as he opened the door to his bathroom, finding the blonde on the floor near the toilet.
Fez hadn't gone into too much detail about it, but Eliana assumed she knew more about the situation than the next person. Faye was dating Custer, one of Fez's friends who had been in the room with him when Ash attacked Mouse and killed him. Except Faye pushed a hotel manager over a balcony and needed to lay low, a favour asked from Custer, so she was now hiding out at Fez's. Which was a lot for Eliana to take in, but honestly, she wasn't surprised.
