"Did something happen?" Eric had not cut ties with them on purpose, but ever since Layla had asked him out, he had gotten the feeling that neither Elliot nor Avery wanted to see him. So, he took it upon himself to stay out of their sight.

"Wait, it was probably inappropriate forto ask you to chere, isn't it? Is your girlfriend living with you?" Layla cto a sudden realization. "Why don't you givethe IV bag and go home?" "She doesn't stay with me." Eric refused to move. "It's late. Just go to sleep and stop overthinking things." "What about you?" "I will wait until the IV bag is empty." "What then?
