Elijah shook his head. He must have been an open book as the next words out of his mouth were: "You are never a waste of my time. Besides, it gives us something we can do together since we seem to struggle some time. If you decide you'd like to let me know. I wouldn't mind at all. " He smiled and tried to finish his breakfast. He suddenly blushed at the mental image of sitting very close to Anthony to help him read. What was wrong with him? He felt like a fiend for even thinking about that towards Anthony briefly. He had to clear his mind and remind himself to not think of any nice guys in his life as something to be desired. They were friends and deserved his absolute respect, he shouldn't taint them by thinking indecent thoughts.
