Both Artemis' hands were at his side. Perhaps his toast glass was on the table and I just couldn't see it.
"It's-it's nothing to make a big deal over..." said Artemis in a subservient tone that I'd never heard from his mouth before. It made my stomach feel sick and I had to consciously remind myself that I had to keep quiet.
"I have a camera," said Ling. She came closer to the door to retrieve the camera from her bag and I saw she had a ring on her finger. "Here we are. Arthur, you should be in the middle. Colin, help me take the photo."
Artemis went round the table while Colin came to receive the camera.
Arthur set his glass down. He had an odd look in his eye as if... he could see me.
"It seems we have a guest."
All eyes in the room turned to the door and I fell back on the floor out of, I'm embarassed to admit, fright.
"We have a guest..." said a voice.
