Eris sits out on her balcony, re-reading the writing analysis reports on the notes that been left against what was found in the house. Trying to find any evidence that gives away the identity of the writing, even a hint of localisation in the speech to reveal where they even grew up. But nothing. It's like they had a random AI bot write. Which wouldn't surprise her in this world of technology. Her thoughts are suddenly interrupted by a knock at her door. She gently places her drink and the case file down on the table outside. Using her glass to weigh down the case files.
Her golden legs shimmer in the late evening sun as she glides through her living room. The loose tee shirt she wears, hangs off her shoulder where she has stretched out the neck. Expecting to see Jay on the other side of the door, she only opens it enough to show herself and not the rest of the apartment. Doesn't want to make the place inviting for him anymore. But instead she is greeted with a surprise visitor. Not yet sure if she is excited about this surprise visitor.
"You're making this into quite the habit aren't you?" Eris jokes with him as she smirks, she pushes the door wider for him to enter.
"Want me to stop?" Sebastian smirks back at her as he hands her a bag of Chinese food.
"Let's not make rash decisions now" Eris jokes, the pair laugh softly to themselves. Trying not to let the other one hear. "I'm out on the balcony if you wanna join" she speaks louder grabbing chop sticks from her kitchen and extra wine glass for him.
"Do you ever rest?" He asks as she sits back down. Noticing the case files on the table below her glass, Eris picks them up and takes them back inside. Once back outside she moves her chair to face him.
"Urm not really" she laughs trying to make it sound less depressing than it does.
"What about when there's no case on?" Sebastian asks as he eats.
"There's never not a case on" Eris side eyes him as she eats "so why are you here?"
"Ouch. Want me to leave?" Seb jokes with her. Eris pouts giving him the answer "you're my only friend in the city" he laughs.
"Awww" Eris mocks him jokingly, "you know how depressing that is right?" They laugh together. Loudly this time "well I appreciate your company too Seb"
"Oh we definitely are friends if you're calling me Seb" he smirks at her "so tell me about yourself"
"I'm an open book but you have to ask the right questions" Eris looks up from her food.
"You're young but well educated to be in your position. So how did you do it?" Seb asks her.
"I was smart kid, I learned quickly that if I did well in school my parents stayed off my back, but by that point in time I had fallen in love with the human brain and how it ticks. So I moved up school quickly, then got a degree in forensics psychology then my masters in behavioural science and by the age of 24 I had my doctorate. I had been working in the BAU for 3 years at that point. I was the youngest member ever" Eris smiles at him, it was like talking to Jay all over again. He is completely in awe over her.
"Wow that's amazing. Your family must be so proud" Seb smiles as his sips his wine, Eris just nods.
"What about you? What's your story?" She asks.
"Not near as impressive of you, little famous boy" Eris smirks at him
"Oh be quiet you" Seb jokes with her, licking his lip as he stares at her. Holding his wine glass just a centimetre from his lips.
"Only if you make me" Eris whispers under her breathe but Seb catches exactly what she just said. He looks at her through the corner of his eye. Shocked she said it out loud but not shocked she said it. "I think I've had too much wine" Eris looks wide eye and shocked at her self as she places the glass back down at the table.
"Nah I think I like wine drunk Eris, she's funny" Seb smirks at her.
"You my friend are a bad influence. I'm going to bed" Eris laughs tapping him on the shoulder before disappearing into her bedroom.
Seb watches the door, not knowing whether he should follow her or not. But then Eris re-emerges from her bedroom with folded blanket and a pillow.
"You can crash on the couch" Eris smirks at him "my friend"
