Elijah hung his head. "I am sorry, you are so disappointed in me. But he was lonely too. And technically yes, he has a home. But mine is nicer it seems and I feed him." He blushed realizing how it probably sounded. "I didn't know he was.. like that.. until after knowing him a few days. I was so happy to just have a friend. When he admitted... the way he was, I was happy to have someone I could relate to.."
 He sighed, he knew it wasn't an excuse. But it was the reason it grew. He was happy with the guy in his life, but it was very upsetting to try to keep both Anthony and Gabriel happy.
