Yawning, Luna walked down the back stairs and into the kitchen, fixing her hair. She opened the fridge to get a Dr. Pepper. But stopped when among her stuff was a big pitcher of cold blood. "Well, at least I have something in the house for him to drink now." she laughed to her, grabbing the soda she wanted and closing the fridge. She sat down at her kitchen table, pop open the soda and took a big gulp of it. She passed the time of waiting for Eric to get up with watching TV. When the doors of the cabinet creaked open, she looked over at it.

"Wow, typical like Vampire on a killing spree horror flick and you think with all the money you have, you'd be able to buy a can of WD-40 to oil them hinges." she commented as Eric stepped out.

Eric smiled, closing the doors behind him, he stood in front of her. "So." he sighed, putting his hands on his hips. "You're back." he said.

Luna nodded, "Looks that way." she answered. They starred at each other in silence for while, before Luna suddenly launched herself at Eric. She wrapped her arms around his neck, letting her legs dangle as she hugged him. Eric smiled holding her. "I missed you a lot." she told him.

"I missed you a lot more." he told her, kissing her cheek.

"No, you didn't." Luna said, looking him in the eyes. "Admit it."

"Oh yes, I didn't miss you a bit. Never thought about you once while you were gone." Eric said, setting her down. She crossed her arms over her chest and looked up at him.

"I knew it!" she said, stomping her foot. "You jerk." the smile wouldn't stay off her face or Eric's for that matter. Luna pushed him a bit, then took off outside. Eric laughed, it was always his favorite game to play with her. She tried to out run him and when that failed, she'd hid from him. Zooming out the wide open front door Eric followed her as she ran across the creek to the thick forest beyond. He let her got a good distance way from him as they got deeper in the forest, before he finally decided to close in on her. But when he got to where she should have generally been in, she wasn't in sight and surprisingly he couldn't sense where she was, just her emotion, which was erratic.

"Luna, where are you?" he called.

"Behind you." She whispered behind him. But when he turned around she wasn't there.

"What the hell, Luna. How did you do that?" he asked, focusing on trying to find her through their bond. But there was no answer just the ringing of his phone. Pulling it out of his jeans. "What is it, Jacob?" Eric asked, walking a few feet hoping to find Luna.

"Did she find out?"

"About what, Jacob?" Eric sighed annoyed.

"That you killed Petter." Jacob said in a 'Duh' voice.

"No, she doesn't know that I'm the one that killed Petter." Eric barked.

"You're the one the killed him, Eric." Luna's dismayed voice called from behind him. Eric twisted around and looked at her, closing his phone seeing the hurt and destroyed expression on her face.

"Luna, I did it because he hurt you." Eric said reaching out to her, but she stumbled back away from him. "Please, Luna. I couldn't let someone that hurt you like still breath. It would have tormented me."

"But...but he was my family, Eric and he served his time. He went to Juvie for it until he was 21, he wrote me a letter apologizing to me and did so face to face. I didn't forgive him, but that was for me to do, not for you to go out and kill him, just because you couldn't live with it, doesn't mean you can go and do that. It's not right, not at all. He was still my family, that you have shook and shattered." Luna said, a silent tear rolled down her cheek. She back came flustered. "Um, I think I should go home now and uh...um you're not allowed back into my house, Eric. I resend my invitation." she told him.

There was a deep twinge in Eric's gut as she said it, once part of him would have said it was the effect of her resending her invitation, but he knew now in honesty it was the pain of her kicking him out and him hurting her more than he ever wanted or expected. Luna turned then and ran back home, as fast as she could.

"Luna." he called quietly to her. He dropped his head and zoomed away in the direction of Fangtasia.
