Who: Cole and Ileana What: Sightseeing Where: The lobby, and then... around New York. When: Timelines are sketchy, so after Jude's death and subsequent burial. Warnings: None.
Colehad taken some of his vacation days after what had happened with Jude, since he couldn't bring himself to resume his normal routine just yet. It still seemed too unreal, too fresh in his mind to just put aside. He was constantly paranoid, waiting for someone to point out Jude's absence. They hadn't, not yet, but he knew they would. It was only a matter of time... and he hoped to God that no one had seen her go to his apartment. As much as it pained him, it was better to let everyone think she'd disappeared or run off. No one could know Sam's secret.
He'd wanted to get out, but he didn't want to be alone. It was a hopeless situation, since the only people he knew that well were dead or somehow tied to Jude.
He just wanted to forget, even for a day, and sightseeing with the newest resident seemed like the perfect way to do just that. He hadn't known Esme had a sister, but then again he hadn't known Esme very well in the first place. She had seemed a little... crazy after Emil's death, with her prophecies and all, but she'd still been nice enough to him; so he had no reason to think her sister wouldn't be the same.
Jude's cat still refused to come out from under the couch, so he left it some food before grabbing his coat and heading out. "Have it your way," he shot at the pair of yellow eyes gazing at him from the darkness.
The elevator was out of the question, although he wondered why it had stopped at his floor for Ileana in the first place. Was there even a method to its madness, or was it just completely random? Maybe it had something to do with Emil's old apartment being there. Regardless, he reached the lobby early - which he'd planned on - and leaned against the wall to wait.
