Elizabeth knew exactly why she had not spoken of him. Things had been different from very early on when she had been around him, and she hadn't truly known what to make of it all. She certainly hadn't been ready to talk to Booker about it, and it was a confession she did not want to make because she had to. Though the thought brought back the visible blush to her cheeks, her expression remained stern. Delsin voiced exactly what her problem was with all of this, why Booker would have never been the first one she was going to turn to to figure all of this out.
"You're acting as though you think I'm required to tell you who I spend my days with. I assure you I'm not. If I don't want to talk to you or if I'm waiting to speak to you, that's something you're going to have to accept," she responded, practically bristling at the fact he was acting as though she was at fault for not telling him something she was figuring out herself. She would not stand for it. "You know I am grateful for everything you've done for me, but if that's some sort of issue to you, if all this is what I am to expect any time you don't approve of something, then we are going to need to have a serious conversation about our living arrangement."
It felt a little too much like he was attempting to control her and she would not tolerate that. Never again, not from anyone.
