Heart shaped lockets. She made a mental note to wear one around him, if she planned on seeing him in the future. His next question took her a little off guard and she tilted her head again.
"Why would I? You haven't done anything wrong. Although your heart isn't beating, it doesn't make you any less of a sentient being." Chloris put her hands back in her pocket, staring up at him. "And you have my ferret."

He looked to the creature on his shoulder and smirked mischieviously. Well then. Maybe i'll just keep him to ensure that you stick around. he said looking back to her. She was the first person to not run form him once they knew what he was. where were you heading anyways? he asked as he stepped a bit closer to her, they were inches apart by now.

Possum saw the smirk, and rubbed his ferret hands together, still staring wide-eyed at the vampire.
Chloris laughed for the first time in a while, reaching her hand up to pet Possum behind the ear. "I wouldn't run away if you didn't have Possum," she shrugged, dropping her hand. "I wasn't really going anywhere. Just getting out of the Academy for a while. Possum and I can't be out during the day either."
She stood on her tippy toes so that she could at least be close to eye level. "Where do you stay during the day? The University?" She inquired. He looked too old to be an Academy student.

No.. I have an apartment a few blocks from here. he gave her a curious look. Why can't you be out in the daylight? It's not like you'll burst into flames like yours truely. he said. The closeness was getting to him. Her scent was filling his nose.. and she smelled delicious. His eyes flashed red for just an instant before returning to their normal warm caramel brown.

At the sight of his eye change, Chloris tried desperately to remember what that meant. "I have a medical condition." She answered, the words coming out slower than she intended. Maybe he needed blood. Were vampires picky?
"Do you need me to step back from you?" She asked. "I could find you some blood if you need it." The girl offered. Chloris wasn't sure where one found random blood, but she could find something. She could fill a cup of her own blood. It's not like she wouldn't make more after a few meals.

Her breath fanned his skin, his his hands iching to touch her skin. Stepping back may be a good idea. I ate last night but you smell all too welcoming, sweetheart. he said in a low husky voice. His brown eyes flashing red again and staying that way a few seconds longer. He didn't want to lose control, it was very easy for him to lose control of his hunger. His mind began to race. The hospital was too far away to raid their blood bank. And he didn't think she'd take too kindly to him grabbing a random girl to drink from.

She nodded, understanding. Chloris took several steps back. Seeing his eyes, she cringed inwardly. "I'll be back," she promised. She almost reach for Possum, but decided he could be collateral. No return, no ferret.
She phased through a wall, scurrying into the building whilst looking for bandaids, a cup, and a sharp object.
A few minutes later she returned with a water bottle in hand, and several bandaids and wrappings on her stomach. Chloris smiled at him wearily, offering the bottle. "It's not much," she apologized.

He eyed her. Surprised by her actions and concerned as well. You really shouldn't have done that. he said as he took the water bottle with her blood in it. He never took his eyes off her as he opened it and sipped her blood. As the taste of her filled his mouth his eyes closed and he let out a small growl. A blissful look crossed his face, a look similar to that of a girl eating chocolate cake. He drank the rest of it quickly and looked to her as he sealed teh bottle. Are you going to be alright? he asked her as he licked the blood from his lips.

Chloris nodded confidently. What was the difference between donating your blood to vampires and donating your blood to blood drives? Well, okay so there were some pretty big differences. But her friend was in need and she could help. So she helped.
"I'll be fine," she smiled. "Will you?"

For now. he said and stepped closer to her, almost forgetting about the ferret on his shoulder. Thank you. he whispered. He cupped her chin lightly as he lowered his head and brushed his lips against her cheek. And you tatse just as delicious as you look. he added in a husky voice.

Possum, who had been dozing peacefully for the last few minutes, became aware of a sudden change in altitude. This resulted in the ferret squeaking, and clinging to Kolton's shirt, not wanting to be dropped on the ground.
Chloris watched, her hand on her cheek. She blinked away the surprise - it had been her first kiss, albeit it was only on her cheek. Did she look delicious? Chloris felt her cheeks tinge with heat. She glanced down at her attire, and then back up at him, a quizzical expression on her face.
"What do I taste like?" She inquired. "I've bitten my lip so hard it bled before, but it tasted like metal." Maybe she looked as delicious as metal.

He chuckled as he coddled the ferret to assure him that he wouldn't be dropped. You taste like... an odd mixture of iron and cinnamon. A bit of a sweetness to it too. he said. He put Possum back on his shoulder and glanced up at the sky. It was after midnight by now. He smiled down at her motioned for her to walk with him. Join me will you? I'd lik eto get in the rest of my nightly walk before it gets too late. This girl was intriguing. And her ferret seeme dto take to him so easily. He wondered why. Animals tended to run form him these last few years since becoming a vampire. They sensed the evilness in him and scampered.

Iron and cinnamon. Chloris could live with tasting like iron and cinnamon. Cinnamon was one of her favorite things to eat. She watched him coddle her ferret and smiled. At least they got along.
She looked up towards the sky, and then back at him. "I'll walk with you." Chloris pulled her coat around her tighter and walked beside him. "How come you don't go to the University?" Maybe he already graduated. After all, vampires didn't age once they had been turned. Perhaps he was over a century old. Weird.

He thought a moment on that. It's... complicated. There's a couple reasons. One is my sister is there. And she... um.. she doesn't know about my situation yet. why was he telling this girl all this? He'd just met her and already she knew his weakness and he'd tasted her blood, kissed her cheek. What the hell was up with him tonight?!

Chloris pondered about that. She couldn't imagine not telling her siblings something that important. She also knew that her family was closer than a lot of others'.
"Are you worried she'll hate you?" She asked, looking up at him curiously. The ferret curled up next to his ear, making a sound that could have been mistaken for purring.
