sealieJim followed, not even trying to catch up. He'd learned to pace himself whenever he was with Blair. The kid was like a moon in orbit around a planet, always moving but generally going in the same direction.
The steps were uneven, hard stone worn by hundreds of years of use. Reaching the top he followed Blair's scent through a low doorway that required ducking his head. The air inside seemed charged with history. Blair had already found someone, his voice floating back down the short hallway in excited bursts of explanation.
Jim paused a few feet inside, cataloging the new atmosphere around him. The hairs on the back of his next took notice and rose. He laid a hand on the smooth stone wall to his right, feeling the coarseness. Mustiness rushed up his nostrils. For a second his vision dimmed and he swayed.
Whoa.
Clearing his head with a brief shake, he moved forward to find his friend. The beer here in England must be stronger than he’d first given credit.
