"Not at all. Are you all right to walk or would you rather side-along apparate? I'm afraid your stomach might not hold if you side-along..."

"You're probably right, but why not try it anyway?" *Adrian laughed lightly.*

"Off towards the Burrow. East of Lankton, and Shire. 14 25 NE Ct. ...I think." *Adrian chuckled, shrugging it off.*

*Orpheus shook his head a little, marvelling at Adrian's shifting moods.* "Very well..." *He hesitated a moment, shifting uncomfortably and blushing slightly before taking hold of Adrian's arm.* "You sure you're all right to travel this way?"

"You sure you're all right holding me?" *Adrian lifted his eyebrows curiously, noting the pink on Orpheus' cheek.*

*Orpheus' cheeks flushed a little further, but he tried to act professional as always.* "Of course."

"Very well, then. You'll take me home, and then I'll tell Iris about my father, and then she'll go daft, and then I'll receive a long lecture about drinking, and then I'll pass out. Off we go." *Adrian sighed, suddenly feeling melancholy as he was earlier.*

*Orpheus frowned, giving him a brief pat on the arm before gripping him tightly and apparating off to the location Adrian had given him.*

*Adrian sighed as they arrived at his house.* "Tell me I don't have to go inside." *Adrian looked up at Orpheus with pleading eyes.*

"Where else would you rather be, Mr. Pickett...? If I knew any way to help you, I would..."

*Adrian thought for a moment, before biting his lip nervously.* "...At your place?"

*Orpheus looked extremely surprised, grateful for the darkness since he could feel his cheeks getting flushed again.* "M-my place? Well... I mean... I have the room... But are you sure you don't want to be home tonight...? You mentioned having to speak to an... Iris... Is she your wife or your girlfriend or something...?"

"Well... she nags me like a wife or girlfriend, but she's actually my cousin. Sweet girl, really."
*Adrian sighed, glancing back at his door.* "I suppose you're right, I should stay here. Thank you for keeping me company." *Adrian frowned, feeling extremely embarrassed, and out of place. He quickly walked inside his house, closing the door, and locking it behind him.*

*Orpheus didn't even have time to say goodnight before the door was closed, suddenly feeling rather depressed and disappointed although he wasn't sure why... He lingered at the door for a long moment, staring at it, before reluctantly turning and walking away from the house.*
