“It’s not that late.”
Quentin glared at Raj, “This is Toby who walks into trouble without knowing it. I don’t like it. She’s going to get herself killed.”
“Sit down, I hate when you pace like that,” Raj had a petulant note in his voice as Quentin dropped down onto the couch beside him.
“Fine, not pacing but she should have been back. I should have gone with her and she hasn’t texted or anything.”
“We’re talking about Toby, don’t be an idiot.”
“She uses phones sometimes.”
Raj poked Quentin in the stomach and stretched out more on the couch, “Wait another hour and then I’ll tell my uncle. He’s going to be worried.”
“I’m worried,” He said and absently scratched behind Raj’s ear.
“I know, she’s being stupid but she won’t die out there.” Somehow Raj heard the question in his voice and the worry, it must be a cat thing since Cagney, Lacey and Spike were all near the couch with concerned looks.
May walked in from the kitchen as if she’s heard him mentioning dying when there was a knock at the door, “She should have her key. I’ll let her in.”
There was a brief scent of May’s magic as she put up her disguise and in a few moments she walked back with Sir Etienne behind her. Quentin straightened from where he was sitting and Raj shifted over, “Sir Etienne, what are you doing here?”
Etienne looked around the messy living room and Quentin noticed that he looked tired, “I need to speak to Sir October. Where is she?”
May came from behind Etienne and put a hand on Quentin’s shoulder, “She’s out but she should be back soon. You can wait.”
“You’ll probably find the dining room more comfortable,” Quentin got up to show Etienne in, getting him a drink and then coming back out before giving Raj a shooing motion.
Raj sighed before saying, “I’ll go tell him. Stay here, she’ll get worse if you’re gone.”
“I wouldn’t know where to find her. She should tell me. I’m her squire.”
“I’m not listening to this now,” Raj said with a very cat sigh and then disappeared into the shadow roads.
May ruffled his hair, “Watch some more television, I’ll take care of our guest and she’ll be back soon.”
“It’s not that late.”
