Luna pushed her spaghetti around her plate, having only eaten a few bites of it. She was still upset about the fight she and Eric had in the museum. After a good 2 hours of checking out the exhibits, barely speaking to each other, they decided to go and have dinner at a local Vampire and human friendly restaurant. Eric sat across from her, sipping a warm glass of B+ blood, he watched her play with her food and felt her discomfort from their fight.
"Luna, I didn't break any laws, threaten or glamor anyone in to letting us into the museum." Eric tried explaining himself to her, an odd feeling for him.
"Then how'd you do it?" Luna asked looking up from her food. Eric rubbed his thumb over his index and middle fingers, making the money gesture. "You paid them off." she scoffed. "Buy your way into things, huh? Typical Vampire attitude. Can't threaten or glamor, you pay off and if that doesn't work what do you do then, Eric?"
Eric starred at her, soft anger was hidden, but visible behind his blue eyes. "You know that as well as I do, Luna. You're just looking for reasons to hate me all of a sudden, for what? Not prevailing in stopping Highborn from making us do what we did? If I remember correctly, you told me you loved me. Was that just the heat of the moment or did you mean it and just decided to be a grumpy little human?" He retorted.
Anger seethed inside of Luna, "I'm not looking for reasons to hate you, Eric and he has nothing to do with what Highborn made us do, so Godric can gain whatever it is he wants. Yes, I told you I loved you and maybe it was the heat of the moment but I don't know yet. I've only known you for 5 days and already you've brought me into this craziness and trying to cover it up by impressing me with a paid off visit to a closed museum and fancy restaurant, isn't going to work. I maybe a human, vampire," she growled venomously. "but that doesn't make me stupid or lower than you." The two starred at each other from across the table, not even noticing the visitor.
"Am I interrupting something?" Highborn's voice called, cutting through them.
Eric looked at at Highborn and growled quietly at the other Vampire. He just doesn't quit. He thought as the Vampire seated himself at their table. "No." Luna said, setting her napkin on the table and standing. "We just finished up." she told him.
"Where are you going, Luna?" Eric asked, standing up with her.
"For a walk, Eric." Luna said. "And don't follow me." she throw over her shoulder.
Eric sat back down at his seat, as the waiter took Highborn's order. "Seems you two had a wee little disagreement." he said, seemingly interested. "A little one." Eric said taking a sip of his blood. "It happens." he added. Highborn nodded, "She looked very upset. Maybe you should go against her wishes and follow her." he suggested.
"No," he shook his head. "It'll only upset her more." he could feel that through their bond. She was beyond upset, she was at a point now that if he followed her, she was liable to stake him. So, he left her to cool off and stayed sensitive to her in case she needed him.
