He grabbed Elysia's arm, "You're coming home with me!"

Elysia looked at him, clearly annoyed, "Let go of me. I'm just staying over at Ely's for one night. It's not like I'm not coming back. I'll be home by tomorrow."

"Dorian! Where are you right now? I need your help with something. Can you come over?"
