<strong>Name:</strong><strong>Adell Zephyros</strong>(Color =<strong>Bolded Red</strong>)<br/><strong>Location:</strong>The Rest In Peace Hotel & Spa.<br/><strong>Tagged:</strong>Eleanor Byrd Rose<br/><hr/><br/><div class="floatright">(http://img-cache.cdn.gaiaonline.com/3d7aebe92db19ffbe63200d2c27c9107/http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/nn249/ExSoldier-Of-Death/Adell1.png)</div>Adell woke up bright and early 6:00Am in the morning. Gently, his eyes opened to his large room. The air conditioner gently hummed with a soothing song as the cool breeze it created left the room at a constantly comfortable temperature. He looked at the clock next to his wicker nightstand and smirked a bit.<strong>~Looks like I overslept a bit. Oh well.~</strong>He sat up and allowed the soft blue sheets to fall from his bare chest down to his boxers. With a hefty stretch, he pulled his arms over his head and lazily fell back into the bed. He was actually still kind of tired from running around yesterday with Eleanor.<br/><br/>That's right. The two of them had a date later tonight. He smirked, then picked himself out of bed and went over to his closet. He threw on a pair of loose-fitting shorts and a tank-top, then turned on the flat-screen at the far end of the room. With his laptop synced with the television, he put on some fast-paced music and began his morning workout. A few hundred push-ups, another hundred sit-ups, fifteen minutes of jumping-jacks, some more push-ups, and then a light cool-down exercise before hitting the shower. Just as he was coming out, there was a knock on the door. He opened it and let the room-service worker bring in his breakfast for the morning.<strong>"Here you are, sir. French toast, scrambled eggs, and a light side of bacon. Extra crispy just as you like."</strong><br/><br/>Adell smirked.<strong>"Thanks Brice. Appreciate it."</strong><br/><br/><strong>"Not a problem."</strong>Once the man left, Adell walked over to his window shades and opened them. The fifteenth floor was definitely one hell of a stair climb, but its view of Death City was unbeatable. He sat down on the couch at the end of his bed and turned the morning news on as he ate his breakfast. It was going to be another sunny day today, but later it was going to cool down. He was thankful the weather wasn't going to try and destroy his date, though there was a chance of some light rain tonight, the number was very low. He might pack an umbrella just in case. Depends on how the clouds look before his date.<br/><br/>After finishing his breakfast, he decided to actually use the elevator instead of the stairs this morning. He had to save up his energy for his date with the hyper-active Ms. Rose tonight. He smirked as he rode the elevator down to the first floor and exited to the hotel's lobby.<strong>"ADELL!!"</strong>Out of nowhere, a heavy suitcase came flying at him! It smashed into him like a cannonball and threw him right back into the elevator with a powerful crash.<br/><br/><strong>"DAD! CUT IT OUT!"</strong>The infuriated red-head yelled out as he dragged himself out of the elevator with the overly stuffed yellow suitcase.<br/><br/><strong>"Now Son, if you're ever going to take over the family business you have to be prepared for anything."</strong><br/><br/><strong>"GUEST DON'T JUST THROW THEIR LUGGAGE AT 50 MILES AN HOUR, DAD!"</strong><br/><br/><strong>"WELL WHEN THE DAY COMES THAT SOMEONE DOES DECIDE TO HURL THEIR LUGGAGE AT YOU, YOU'LL LOOK BACK ON THIS AND THANK YOUR FATHER FOR HIS WISDOM!"</strong>Adell's father was a... slightly imbalanced man who loved nothing more than owning hos hotel chain. He was a true rags-to-riches story who started out with nothing and turned it in to the Rest In Peace Hotel & Spa.<strong>"So have you finally decided to start training to take over your old man's business?"</strong><br/><br/><strong>"How many times do I have to tell you,"</strong>He dropped the heavy case onto the floor next to his father in a huff before continuing.<strong>"I'm going to school to become a world-class Meister."</strong><br/><br/><strong>"Speaking of which, how is school going, Adell?"</strong>A soothing feminine voice chimed out as Adell's mother stepped into the lobby and greeted her son.<br/><br/><strong>"Hey Mom. Things are going fine. The first week was pretty laid back, but we'll probably have missions to do starting Monday."</strong>He allowed his mother to hug him, but didn't invest too much emotion into the embrace because he knew what was coming next.<br/><br/><strong>"Oh Adell, missions already? You know how dangerous some of those missions could be. You might get hurt. Why don't you drop out of school and start working to take over your father's business?"</strong><br/><br/><strong>"Mom, I keep telling you guys, there'd be no point in running a hotel if a Demon God comes and just knocks it over. I'm going to school so I can train hard and make sure that never happens: I'm going to school so I can protect you, dad, and the hotel."</strong>He kept his calm as he spoke. Too many times when talking to his parents he'd been brought to the very brink of an emotional outburst, but he'd gotten used to these daily conversations to the point where it didn't affect him so much. Still, he only wished his parents understood he had no intention of owning hotels. He wished they would just accept him for who he was.<br/><br/><strong>"But dear, don't you at least need a partner to even do half the things you're trying to do? How do you expect to get anywhere in that school all by yourself?"</strong>His mother's words cut deep.<br/><br/>Adell wanted to tell them about Eleanor. He wanted to let his parents know that he finally found a partner. Not only that, but a potential girlfriend. However, he withheld the urge to share his happiness with them. He had the feeling that they might start to resent Eleanor before they even meet her just because they'd consider her the reason why he doesn't want to run the family business. What would make matters worse is if they found out he liked her. The last woman Adell brought home really left a sour taste in his family's mouth and, ever since then, they've extremely doubted his judge of character. Not to mention the fact that Eleanor was half-witch.<br/><br/>He sighed deeply through his nose and walked towards the main entrance.<strong>"I'm gonna go out for a bit. I'll be home later..."</strong>It was a terrible feeling that he now had in the pit of his stomach. Adell loved his parents, and he appreciated everything they did for him, but he just wished they'd respect him more.<br/><br/>Hopefully a nice drive would take his mind off things. Adell climbed on top of his Motorcycle (http://imagesci.com/img/2013/17/kawasaki-ninja-red-7646-hd-wallpapers.jpg), started the engine, and pulled out of the driveway with his golden-colored goggles pulled over his eyes.<br/><br/>He pretty much spent the entire day driving around on his motorcycle just trying to sort out all these feelings and emotions. HOw in the world was he going to introduce Eleanor to his family? What would the think of her? He didn't want to think of his parents in such a way; they were actually very nice people, but still... the thoughts lingered...<br/><br/>The young man made a few stops at his favorite places: the park side where people came to walk their dogs, feed the ducks, and have picnics; the lake where his dad used to take him fishing early in the mornings; and the quiet hillside where nobody ever really bothered to go accept him and maybe a few passer-bys. He liked the hiss especially on starry nights when the moon was full. Maybe one day he'll take Eleanor out here. That might be fun. He might finally have somebody to share these places with.<br/><br/>For now, though, he'd already scoped out a few places to take her that's more... date-worthy: A nice little restaurant, and the movies. That's where normal people went to dates at, right? God if he knew...<br/><br/>It was almost time for him to head back home and change clothes. More than likely he'd wear something semi-casual. He didn't want to jut show up in his street clothes, but at the same time he didn't want a suit-and-tie to overdue their first date. He wondered if he even had any datish clothing in his closet. Better find out while there's still time to run out to a store and buy an outfit.
