Elliot flinched slightly, Callan's sharp tone seeming louder than it was in the empty house. If anyone was going to feel different after the ceremony it certainly wasn't going to be the vampire when it was the human who got the most perks. He reasoned that maybe he'd feel different later he had, after all, only just finished the ceremony. A joke? He knew not everyone agreed with the bond, but had kind of expected that the one he entered into the bond with would. Not that he had time to voice that, Callan had already left with the command to stay out of his room. Elliot yawned and stepped past the boxes to explore his new home. It was big, big enough that Elliot was sure his whole family could live there and rarely even have to see one another. More rooms than he knew what to do with. The place was furnished and clean but very empty. To Elliot it did not seem like a place that was actually meant to be lived in, just for looking.<br/><br/>He chose a room on the second floor with big windows that opened up to the back. It was currently too dark to assess his view but he was certain it would be a great one. Even without the view this room was as large as his living room back home, with a too large closet and a bathroom attached. It also just so happened to be only a few doors down from the room he was pretty sure Callan had claimed. Satisfied with his selection he rolled up his sleeves and headed back down stairs to get the first of his boxes. It didn't take him very long to move them all up and stack them in the corner of his bedroom. It was late, but the excitement of the ceremony had not yet worn off enough for Elliot to bother trying to sleep. He stood in his doorway wondering if perhaps he should start to unpack or something, but instead decided to go in search of food and maybe his grumpy new husband, but certainly food.
