Blood, cold, and vampires don't mix well
HE was prepared for the tears so it seamed. He just rocked me back and forth before he asked:
"Nicholas?" I nodded
"Sorry."
"ts all right, he musta been a real great friend to you." I nodded again
" I never got his whole story, but I have a feeling that we'd met before and I'm gonna eventually find out."
"Just one question for you." I looked up so I was looking at his face. He was taller than me and I just realized that. I never even realized it back in the Civil War.
'Why'd you wait until he was gone before you cried?"
"He's the boyfriend. What's he supposed to do about me crying? You do know he would have handled it a lot worse."
"True, but, why would you cry on me?"
"Best friends job. You knew me better in the Civil War, and you're my best friend now. Plus, you're the best friend. They usually handle tears better." He nodded in agreement. I went and sat against the wall.
"Damon"
"Yeah"
"Why am I so cold?"
"Dunno, are you having a heat change again?"
"nope, stronger cold."
"You're not touching yourself with your ice hand are you?"
"No, my fire hand. It's freezing and won't spark."
"I don't know." He came and sat down next to me. He put his hand on my forehead like he was checking my temperature.
"You feel burning up to me. That's not good." I put my hand on his arm.
"Wow, Emz, you're really, really cold, but your head is burning up, I don't get it."
"I don't know either, but I feel like crap." I started stealing heat from him through my hand on his arm until I got a bloody nose, I used too much of my energy and was pushing too hard on myself. You could kinda tell that the blood was getting to him, but he's too smart to drink my blood, he knew it would make him sick, so he fought through it.
"That's pretty bad. You're sucking heat from a vampire Emz." Things got a little hazy and blurry. I passed out.
