*Elijah finished his shower and put his dress uniform on. Looked at his watch and saw that it was 6:07pm. He left his room to go pick up Melissa for dinner. Which he arrived on time*
*Elijah and Melissa made "small talk" as they walked to dinner.*
Elijah Jurgen:You look very beautiful tonight Melissa.
Melissa Jameson:Well thank you Elijah and you look rather handsome in you dress uniform.
Elijah Jurgen:Well unfortuanately I will have to leave shortly after dinner. We are meeting with some others off ship about something. Can't tell you but our dinner may be shorter than you wanted.
Melissa Jameson:That is fine Elijah. I did hope to spend more time with you but I will take what I can get for now. I understand that you are very important to Cerberus and Jack needs you for this meeting.
*They finally arrive at the bar where Benedict greets them and takes them directly to their table with no waiting.*
Elijah Jurgen:Thank you Benedict.
Benedict Williams:Your appetizers will be here shortly. Then I will follow with the main course about 20 minutes after that. Would that be ok sir?
Elijah Jurgen:Yes, that will be fine. I appreciate everything you have done Benedict.
*After hearing that Elijah had already ordered ahead for them she looks at him with a huge smile*
Melissa Jameson:You know something Elijah, most women may have been angry and insulted that you ordered for them without even asking them what they wanted...
Elijah Jurgen:but you found it quite....chivalrous?
*She shot him a knowing look and was continued to be amazed by him*
Melissa Jameson:Well yes frankly I do. How...I mean...What...ummmm......
Elijah Jurgen:How did I know that that would not bother you?
Melissa Jameson:Hmpfff...yes. Am I that much of an open book that I can be read so easily?
**Elijah smiles and laughs softly**
Elijah Jurgen:No, No, No. If it were only that easy. The truth is I have been stalking you and Benedict has been feeding me information about you!
Melissa Jameson:So, I have a stalker huh? I will have to speak with that little traitor Benedict!!!
*Elijah and Melissa continued getting to know each other over dinner. They both seemed to enjoy each other's company. Elijah noticed that Melissa became more comfortable as the night went on. It was now time for Elijah to leave for his meeting with Jack, Dave and the others. He walked Melissa back to her room. Hugged and said goodbye. Elijah then headed toward the hanger deck to get into his Bastet.*
