Past Midnight (Eric)
Some nights, Leeloo stayed in, instead of meeting with her friend in the dark night streets. They'd worked out a system, easy enough for the crow to see and translate. If there was something on the windowsill of her shared apartment by 10 p.m., she'd be out that night; and if not.... If not, Peter was probably not working late that night.
But tonight was not one of those nights. After the moon hit its zenith and started sliding down toward the trees again, Leeloo pocketed her key and headed downstairs. She'd gotten accustomed to walking at night, and she loved the cooler night air, the quiet of the streets, and the companionship of the strange man and his bird. They'd become very close to her.
She found him on a street corner not far from the Chosen building. With a big smile, she dropped in step with him and started walking. "I missed you last night," she said, the smile still full and bright. "What did you do?"
