"Se.xy teacher, am I right?" Emrys teased.
I pushed away from Emrys's chest to stand up straight. Nick and Ellie are still staring at us in utter shock. I thought that Ellie and Duncan knew about Emrys though...
"Snap out of it you two," Emrys practically demanded.
Just like that, the two shook their heads as if being lifted from a spell.
"It's just..." Ellie started. "You've been alone for so long... You've never met someone... like you."
"I'm not exactly like him." I told her. "We're... a bit different, but I was still able to help."
"Oh?" Ellie asked.
I walked around the island to stand next to Ellie.
"How about you take my seat," I said, gently pushing her to walk. "And I'll tell you all you want to know as I make your tea?"
