I got myself together and headed back inside. Stella came up to me looking concerned. "Are you all good? Do you need a nap?" I blinked a few times trying to sort out my brain. "I think I need a shower first. I feel sweaty and gross. "Yeah. I was about to head for one myself." Stella said. "I'll meet you back down here for lunch." We both bolted for the stairs. We raced each other laughing all the way. We were like kids! "I can't believe we didn't even get a hit on Ramil!" She groaned when we got up to our floor. "I wanted to find out what he's not telling us." "I might yet." Stella looked at me surprised. "Because we didn't get a hit on him, he asked me for a boon!" "That sly fairy!" Stella frowned. "What did he ask for?" "I'm going on a date with him tomorrow!" "Niiiiice!"
