As Jade slowly opened her eyes to see the sun flowing into the small room making things too light for her thumping head. As she started to get out of bed the door opened she saw an Elven male was standing on the other side holding a tray with some food.

“Nice to see your awake my jewel,” the elf said as he walked in the room and placed the food down on the side table “You will need to eat if you want to get going before the night sets in.”

“Do I know you?” Jade looked hard into his clear blue eyes trying to associate a name to put with the face.

“So nineteen years apart you know my face, but a lot of ale and you don’t?” he said using a deeper voice.”

“Rekki?” as she said his name a wave of the past washed over her. “It’s good to see you.” Jade started to eat some eggs and bread.

Rekki smiled and asked, “Do you know what you did last night?” Jade just looked at him blankly “All that time away I never knew you’d be able to grab your ankles as you bend over backwards.”

“I did what?” Jade dropped the bit of bread she had in her hand.
“You did have a harder time trying to dance in the lap of the humans.” He sat on the side of the bed and went on “Do you know you look so good with a loin cloth on to hide the lower parts.”

Jades white skin went a deep shade of red and look away to see a bag of gold sitting on the table “Where did this come from?”

“The inn keeper was so happy with your umm ‘work’ that he paid you for it.” Rekki walked around picking up the gold and a dress “you can put this on and before we can stop and get a new outfit.”

After a little more talking Jade and Rekki where back on the road talking of the past.

By bugs do you mean errors of the language? Either way, I'm a bit late, I guess. Er... if you are not looking for corrections of errors, don't read the following, because it's full of those. Just read this bit, where I says it was a nice story.

As Jade slowly opened her eyes to see the sun flowing in to the small room making things to light for her thumping head.

Where to begin... The sentence in itself is incorrectly constructed, it's like "as she did something, something happened" and then it ends after the something is described, leaving out the something happened part, if you get what I mean. "In to" should probably be "into" and "to light" "too light".

As she started to get out of bed the door opened and an Elven male was standing on the other side holding a tray with some food.

Sounds kind of funny, would probably be better if you said and she saw he was here rather than just that he was.

“Nice to see your awake my jewel” the elf said as he walked in the room and placed the food down on the side table “You will need to eat if you want to get going before the night sets in”

Lacking in punctuation, how about -
“Nice to see your awake my jewel,” the elf said as he walked in the room and placed the food down on the side table. “You will need to eat if you want to get going before the night sets in.
...Although I am never too sure about punctuation around quotation marks myself.

“Do I know you?” Jade started look hard into his clear blue eyes trying to think of the name to put with the face.

"Started look" isn't right, it should be "started to look", although I would just say "looked". Also, "put" is a funn choice of words, about, I don't know, "associate"?

Yes I do mean errors of the language. Thanks I'll get to work soon.
