Elizabeth felt the blush rise up on her cheeks at his protest.
"Delsin, please," she winced. She knew it was the exact opposite of what Booker would ever want to hear, even if she knew he wasn't taking advantage of her no matter what he may or may not have done. Her attention solely on Booker afterwards, she gave him a look. "Booker, I am not a child. He wasn't taking advantage of me, I - I've wanted this to happen. For some time now."
It was likely the worst way of admitting as such, and she was a little happy she wasn't actually looking at him.
"Not that I should have to explain any of this to you. I can care for whoever I like without your permission and certainly without these outbursts out of you," she continued, her hard tone indicating her sharp flare of anger. It was rare she got this way, but this was absolutely out of line. He had honestly ruined what had been a nice moment. "So stop. Right now. We can talk like adults or Delsin and I are leaving."
It was no empty threat. As much as she wanted Booker to like him and cared about his opinion, she wouldn't have him speaking down to her in such a manner and certainly would not let him hurt Delsin. Even if he could protect himself, she didn't want a brawl to take place in the middle of the apartment.
