The flat was in darkness. For a moment Leek thought Stephen had gone but a noise from the bedroom said otherwise.
“Headache?” asked Leek turning a light on low. Stephen had dressed but otherwise lay on the bed where Leek had left him.
“No.”
“Have you been out?”
“No.”
“Eaten?”
“No.”
“You should. We could go now.” Leek looked down at Stephen and smiled. “Food and fresh air. Doesn’t that sound good?”
“Aren’t you ashamed to be seen with me?”
Leek dropped to the bed and took Stephen’s hand. He spoke carefully. “I promise we won’t meet anyone you know.”
