Elijah had taken the day off work so he could hang out with Fleur, who was also staying off work due to her not feeling great. He had a bag of all the supplies they'd need for their day and evening together. Fleur, unknown to Elijah coming over, was sitting on the couch watching a show.

Elijah knocked on the door,"Fleur, open up. Your best friend has arrived."

Fleur wandered over to the front door, opening it up,"Hey, what are you doing here? I thought you guys had a case."

"We do.. But you said you weren't feeling well so I decided to come spend the day with you." Elijah held up the bag.

"Eli." Fleur smiled, opening her arms for a hug,"You'll make me cry."

"Aw, don't cry." Elijah chuckled as he hugged her.

"Not my fault." Fleur shook her head.

"I know." He hummed.

"Are you okay?" Fleur pulled away from the hug.

"Of course. Why wouldn't I be okay?" Elijah asked.

"I'm just asking." Fleur closed the door,"Bedroom, or living room for movies?"

"Anywhere you want, love." He shrugged.

"Living room, bedroom's a mess." Fleur pointed.

"Good idea." Elijah nodded.

While walking through to the living room, Beau ran through, jumping up at Elijah.

"Hello, boy." Elijah smiled and petted him.

"He missed you." Fleur chuckled.

"I missed you too." Elijah hummed.

"And Marie is somewhere." Fleur chuckled.

"She's always lurking." He nodded.

"Waiting to pounce." She joked.

"When we least expect it.: Elijah added.

"Sincs you brought snacks.. You can choose the movie." Fleur nodded, sitting on the couch.

"Yes." Elijah cheered as he sat down,"I made sure to bring ice cream."

"I love you." Fleur gasped.

"I do try." Elijah winked.

"I think.. I might make dinner and tell him." Fleur looked at Elijah.

"Oh, good idea." Elijah hummed.

Fleur hesitated before she texted Morgan.

'Dinner tonight? We need to talk.' She typed.

A few minutes later, Morgan called her.

"Shit." Fleur sat up,"Shh." She pointed at Elijah before she answered,"Hey there."

"Well, hey yourself." Morgan sighed,"Baby, listen.."

"Don't tell me you have another case." Fleur cursed.

"No! No, no, no. I'm on my way home." Morgan told her,"I swear, I'm coming home."

"Good." Fleur chuckled.

"Look, Flo, you know how you texted me, uhm.. You know, you said we needed to talk?" He asked.

"Mhm." Fleur nodded.

"Come on, now."

"What?" She chuckled.

"Flo, you gotta tell me what this is about. At least give me a hint." Morgan sighed.

"Nope." Fleur hummed.
