007n7 X Elliot Novels & Stories

Sky was hesitant at first but she sat down next to him anyway. "Do you remember the date?", she asked slowly. Elliot gave her a heart wrenching smile. "How could I forget it? You left me on that date.", he said with a heavy heart and opened the files of old footages on his computer. He entered the date and time of that night and played the video. Elliot looked drunk when he came out of the car. The driver helped him to enter the house. Soon after that, a woman appeared at the door. She entered the house using some special gadgets.

— Yes… didn’t you know your wife’s body well? He nodded: — Naomi had no scar behind her ear. Nelly said calmly: — That was my proof. She rose lightly and moved toward an old record player in the corner of the room: — My God… it looks very old, but it’s interesting. She placed a record on it, turned it on, switched off the harsh white light, and turned on a warm yellow glow. Outside, the beach was quiet, the sky clear and studded with stars, and the air cool. The cry of a black bird echoed above the chalet—a crow, most likely—its voice blending with the roar of the waves.

Trey asked. “A joke?” Dare asked. One dark eyebrow lifted over a piercing green eye. “This is Brian,” Trey said. “I’d know his playing anywhere.” “It’s not Brian. Some guy named Elliot.” Dare tapped on the empty CD case. It had a plain white insert with the name Elliot scrawled across it in black marker. “El-li-ot,” Logan, Exodus End’s golden-haired bassist, said in a perfect impression of E.T. “Phone hooooome,” their drummer, Steve, added.

The streetlights flickered on, casting pale orange pools of light on the wet pavement. Avery sat at her desk, staring at her phone. It had been silent all day. Wenger was still testing her patience, waiting for her to crack, to come begging for his help. She smiled coldly, her lips pressing into a thin line. She typed a single line and sent it: 【I already know N-073's current identity in Sunset City. Professor, your bargaining chip just lost its value.】 Within three minutes, her phone exploded with frantic vibrations. She answered slowly, her finger hovering over the screen. Wenger's voice, old but stripped of all composure, came through the speaker, raw and panicked:

Luca laughed. Fiona rubbed her leg against him, and Luca let out a low groan. "By the way," Fiona whispered, "your American fiancé... she won't find out, will she?" "Please. She’s an idiot. I could sell her and she’d help me count the cash." "Hahaha! I almost feel bad for her!" Their voices faded, but every word was etched into my brain. I took a deep breath and walked out. I made sure to make enough noise with my heels before pushing the door open.

“Right here. This is the designated recharge station.” My whole face was probably the color of a tomato. “I am not sitting on your lap.” “Why not? It’s a perfectly good lap. Structurally sound. I had it inspected.” “Jax…” I whined, my protest weak. “Elliot,” he mimicked my tone perfectly. “The team, Elliot. Think of the team. Do you want us to lose the semi-finals because the ace was too low on essential nutrients?” He gave me his best wounded-puppy look, which was utterly ridiculous on someone who looked like him.

Tom pointed at the barren apartment. “Eve and Jordan have seven years of history together. “We’ve all seen how Eve’s been with Jordan these past seven years.”

I tell my friend, “Elliot is hopelessly in love with you. I’m surprised he even noticed that she was alive. He’s just being polite!! Elliot is Levi’s Beta, which means that he has to interact with the security team. You know that.” Elliot ends the conversation and joins us by the hors d'oeuvres table. He automatically puts his arm around Sophie and grins at me happily. He doesn’t notice her wince at the contact, but I do. “Hey Amber, it’s great to see you,” Elliot says enthusiastically, “I just met Tabby! She seems nice! Great call!” At this comment, Amber removes his arm from her shoulder and walks away quickly. Elliot stares at her departing back in confusion.

Tonight, he typed back. Elliot: I'll be there at seven. He wasn't early for once. He knocked at exactly seven, which Kieran suspected had required some effort on his part, and when Kieran opened the door Elliot was in his coat with his hands in his pockets, looking at Kieran the way he sometimes looked at him when he forgot to manage his expression first all of it right there on his face, no armour, just the thing itself. "Hi," Kieran said. "Hi." Elliot came in. He looked around the apartment not nervously, just taking it in, the way he always oriented himself in a new space. Then he looked back at Kieran.
