Adrian grinned back at Stephen, surprised at how happy he seemed but happy to go along with it. "Really? That's good. How much longer do you think it will take? Are we talking a week or less?"
He sat down, his stomach rumbling loudly. "No, I am hungry. A few SS were eating earlier in the bar and it made me realise I'm starving," he said. He dug into the food, eating it quickly. "So there's no need to hit me," he added between mouthfuls.
"Tracey came back today," he said after a moment. "Turns out she wasn't sick; she bumped into one of the SS the night before she called in sick and ended up worse for it."
