Louis ran through the building, it happened to be a restaurant, and exited out a window on the other side, jumping to the alleyway. Lestat could see that he was radiant with happy excitement, an extremely unusual state of being for Louis. Louis entered an apartment building and crawled out of a window to the roof. Lestat immediately willed himself to the roof and grabbed him from behind. Lestat snarled triumphantly in Louis's ear.
Resistance is futile.
Lestat jumped from the roof with him and landed in a deserted courtyard. He turned Louis to face him and lifted him into the air. Lestat tossed him into the air and caught him. Lestat brought Louis nose to nose with him. Louis bit his bottom lip in an attempt to stop laughing.
