cagedlambThings were...still a little touch and go between Booker and her.
But better. Much better. Elizabeth knew that and appreciated that. Since the day they began to talk again, it had almost been an attempt to start fresh, which seemed to be a trend in this place for her. She treated it as just another thing for her to adjust to. Still, there was one hurdle that she knew had to be addressed before she really allowed herself to start letting her defenses down around him.
They had stopped talking specifically because of his inability to accept she would make decisions he might not like sometimes without talking to him first. Delsin and she had been dating ever since then, and it was important for her to see him at least make an effort to get to know him. It was why she decided, then, to put together a small meal for the three of them - one she hosted in the comforts of her little apartment.
She was just about done with cooking the relatively simple meal of chicken and pasta when they arrived, one after the other. She excused herself into the kitchen to finish up putting it all together. She quietly hoped the night would go well as she worked on putting portions of the meal onto plates.
It had to go well.

Though I've been using the computer for more than just my studies, recently. The things on there really are amazing. I can show you one day if you like, Booker."
She had a feeling he mostly steered clear from it, if what she'd seen before was any indication.

He's not completely computer-averse, he's figured out that ridiculous phone that's actually come in pretty handy, maps and all. And he's got a second-hand laptop that he uses in his work, checking warrants, communicating with the bondsmen he works for, looking up things on the spouses he's investigating, so he doesn't think he's a beginner. He's been pretty happy with the way he's finally acclimated to this crazy place. But any excuse to spend time with his daughter is alright by him.
"Could probably use some tips and I'd like to see what you're doing in school, too."
