"Freylan," Clivius' breath came out in a rushing sound; he couldn't take it anymore. Before he could stop himself he'd scrambled to his feet enough to pull her into a hug, pressing her small frame close as he half-bent his legs to be closer to her height, more restraining her than anything. "Please--just... wait, wait a second," he whispered into her cloak, his glasses pushed up the bridge of his nose slightly. "Whatever you are--you... you're kind, Freylan. You're so kind to me, and no one has ever listened to me like you did," he mumbled, his voice coming fast as his breathing, arms tightening around her shoulders slightly, silently begging her to stay. "Please, d-don't... don't run away."



But there will come a time
You'll see, with no more tears
And love will not break your heart
But dismiss your fears
Get over your hill and see
What you find there
With grace in your heart
And flowers in your hair



"Tomorrow will be a good day."

Freylan gasped as Clivius hugged her, and on instinct she began to struggle, trying to push him away. Her arms were pinned between her chest and his as a result, and she squirmed, shaking her head as a fresh wave of tears washed over her. "No, y-you don't understand! I can't stay! I can't, Clivius, I can't do this anymore..." Freylan shuddered, the adrenaline suddenly draining out of her. She leaned against him, getting his shoulder wet, her body heaving. "I'm a vampire," she whispered, her body tensing up at the last word, as if she were afraid that by saying it out loud, he would turn against her. That he might stop holding her in his arms.

"H-humans are supposed to hate me b-because I'm dangerous to them. I-I'm not; I don't want to ever get close to humans. But you're... you're different than the rest." Freylan's hands found Clivius's jacket, and she clung to the fabric, feeling as if it were the only thing holding her up. "You're so kind, e-even to someone like me, b-but you're not supposed to be... Human's aren't supposed to be kind."

Clivius was stunned speechless by her words, instead focusing on warming her, on holding her close until the shaking in her shoulders stilled. He felt like crying himself, every word she was saying was wrenching his heart further and further, so much that when she finally admitted to her true nature, it seemed like such a trivial thing. Oh, but it wasn't. He was holding a monster. A monster his father had told him stories about as a child, about how they stole humans away and drained their blood and left them for dead but she was crying, and there was no way in hell Clivius was going to let her go. "V-vampires aren't... supposed to be kind, either," Clivius began, something like a smile coming onto his face, eyes rimmed in dampness. "But here you are... Freylan, I-I... I don't mind. I don't mind that you're a... a vampire." Oh, god, what was he saying. His father would have his head. But... but...! "I don't. I don't want you to run away, Freylan, I-I love..."

Oh. Oh no.

"...I love you, Freylan. A-and I want to see you again. S-so please don't run away..."

Freylan looked up at Clivius as he spoke, her eyes puffy from tears. A small sob shook through her small frame. If it wasn't for the arms around her, she probably would have fallen down. Clivius's arms. Why he was holding her, and why he was speaking to her so gently, Freylan had no idea. She hadn't the faintest idea why this human was so considerate of her. It was confusing, and Freylan wanted to run away, but she couldn't run from this person who had gotten so close to her heart. He said he didn't care that she was a vampire. He didn't care. A few tears slipped down her face, and she squeezed her eyes shut, trying not to burst out into tears again.

I love you, Freylan.

Freylan stared up at him, her breath taken away, as confusion and shock and a million other indiscernable emotions crossed her face. "Oh," she whispered, bringing one hand to wipe at her face. She swallowed, looking away, her chin wobbling again as another wave of tears threatened to spill over. Freylan let out a shuddering breath, trying to figure out what to say. "Even though... Y-your father would hate me?" She asked, voice thin as a thread. "A-and you'd never be able to see me at daytime? I-I h-hunt animals, f-for their blood; a-are you okay with that? Y-you... you're not lying, are you..."

Clivius felt his heart twist in pain at her words, and he let out something like a chuckle, but it came out more like a soft sob. "My father would love you," he whispered, shaking his head. "He should. I would make him." Clivius knew he should stop, should keep the words from spilling out of his mouth but they were coming too quickly, far too quickly. He felt his throat grow thick at her last words, and he winced, a few tears welling in his eyes as he took in a shuddering breath. "No, I'm... I'm not okay with it but that doesn't matter. It's who you are, a-and I love you. I-I wouldn't lie about that."

Freylan shuddered, a hiccuping sound spilling out of her as she tried to suppress her tears. She brought her hands up to wipe at her face, ducking her head so that Clivius wouldn't see. "Then..." She began, cutting herself off as she took a huge breath, her shoulders shaking. "Then... I-I can love you back?" Freylan swallowed, unsure if Clivius could hear her quiet voice. She looked up at him, searching his teary face for an answer. "W-would that be allowed?"

Clivius stared at her, looking more floored than anything else as he met her gaze. He stared at the tears rolling down her face, and in one movement he swept her up into a tight hug, pressing his face into the side of her hood. "Th-that... would make me very happy," he whispered, the words falling from his mouth and racing in his heart so foreign, so earnestly rushing to his expression in a breathless smile, despite the lump in his throat from crying. "Y-you can do whatever you want, Freylan. A-and if that's... if that's loving me, then... then I couldn't be happier."

Freylan gasped as he wrapped her up in a hug, and she went up on her toes as he lifted her up slightly. After a moment, she wrapped her arms around him as well, her touch gentle, as if she was afraid that he would disappear. She buried her face in his chest, sniffling slightly. He said it was alright. She... was in love with him. And he with her. They were in love. Freylan wondered what her grandmother would say at this. Would she be worried, because it was a human? Or would she be glad that Freylan had finally found someone to ease the loneliness in her heart? Freylan didn't know. She only wished that she could stay there, in his arms, forever.

She shifted, the hood pulling down slightly, revealing her short, choppy blonde hair. Freylan blinked, some residual tears still hanging on her eyelashes, and reached up to pull the hood down. She looked up at Clivius, searching his face. "Um..." Her voice trailed off, and she looked down at her feet, unsure of what to say. She blinked at her bowl, which had been upended in her brief struggle to get away. "Y-your soup..." She murmured, eyebrows creasing together.

Clivius looked down at Freylan as she spoke, and for a moment, his breath caught in his chest. Without her hood, he could finally see her better, and he found his cheeks prickling with heat against the chill breeze. "Oh... Oh? A-ah! Oh dear," he murmured, realizing the soup had turned over. He stared at it for a moment, then looked at her, a small, embarrassed laugh escaping him. "Well, that's alright. Ah, I... should ask," he began, stepping away from her enough to give her a bit of space. "Since you're... ah, a vampire, and... does that mean you don't eat human food? Because that was pretty presumptuous of me... or, well, I guess it wasn't, since I didn't know you'd be a vampire, and that isn't really something you... expect. I should be quiet," he quickly said, running a hand over his face and pushing his glasses up, letting them fall back to the bridge of his nose with an embarrassed, apologetic grin.

Freylan stood, looking up at Clivius. With the space between them, she was finally able to catch her breath. She had cried... She had admitted what she was... And then Clivius said he loved her. And she returned the feeling. Pressing a hand to her chest, Freylan looked down, her eyes flickering slightly. She loved him. It explained the tightness in her chest, and why she always was so happy when she was around him. Freylan looked back up at him as he spoke, then down at the soup. She bent down and gently set the bowl upright, red dripping from the bowl. Not like blood; it was more chunky than blood. "I'm sorry," she murmured, straightening up to look at Clivius with an apologetic expression. "I-I've never... had human food before. It--it was better than I expected, b-but..." Freylan shrugged helplessly, trying to smile. "It was thoughtful of you to bring it."

Clivius listened to her closely, watching as she picked up the bowl of soup, and he smiled in spite of himself. "Thank you," he chuckled, running a hand through his hair and letting out a breath. "So... I should probably make a point not to bring as much, next time. Maybe just a little for you to taste, if that's what you want..." Next time. Yes, he truly hoped Freylan would want there to be a next time. Was that what she was saying, when she said she loved him? That she wanted to see him again, and talk with him again?

Clivius hoped so, more than anything else. "So... I... really don't know much about vampires," he began, shifting away from where the soup spilled and sitting down in the grass, then lightly gesturing her to come a little closer, if she wanted. "Um... what's it like? I mean, agh, dumb question... where... how did you... become one? Did a bat bite you?" he asked, feeling almost like a child, with his silly questions.

Freylan smiled at that, her eyes shining slightly with residual tears, and nodded slowly. "Next time," she murmured, her fingers going to rub at the fraying seam of her cloak. She'd have to repair that soon. Freylan blinked up at Clivius as he began to speak again. Slowly, she sank down in the grass next to him, tucking her skirts under her legs. Her fidgeting fingers found her hair, and she began to wind one finger around the end of one blonde strand, nervous. Without the protection of her hood, she felt a little strange, but it was nice. It felt like she wasn't hiding anymore.

A small laugh spilled out of her as she looked at him with surprised. "What? U-um, n-no, I've never... been bitten by a bat. And... I've always been a vampire. My whole family is, um, vampiric. I was told by my grandmother that humans would turn if they were, um, bitten and drained of their blood, b-but she... said that wasn't really done much. It sounds a little gross, if I'm honest..." Freylan let out a breathless laugh, not sure what else to do when talking about such a touchy subject. What her grandmother would say if she knew that she was in love with a human, and talking about matters such as these with him.

Clivius sat on his knees with his hands in his lap, attentive as she spoke. "Ohhh..." he murmured, looking a little bit perturbed, before he chuckled slightly. "Y-yeah, that is a little gross-sounding. And painful," he said with a small smile, wincing and rubbing his neck unconsciously. "So... it passes on like genetics?" he inquired, leaning closer with raised eyebrows. Granted, his knowledge of genetics was quite limited, but he often overheard other boys at the university, when he happened to be hanging around the science department. "Ah, I... also wondered something," he said softly, his hand moving to lightly brush over the cross on his neck, and he pointed at it, lightly tapping it. "Um... do crosses... hurt vampires?" he asked, brows knitting. "I... heard somewhere they warded them off, but I wasn't sure if it was true."

"Mmhm," Freylan murmured, watching Clivius rub his neck. That had perturbed him, definitely. She looked away, then down at her hands, wondering why she was the way she was, and he was different. It didn't seem like there should be any differences. "I... believe so. It does pass along the family tree, yes. Um, there could have been cases of humans marrying into the family tree, o-or turning, but all that was, um... lost. A long time ago." Freylan had been too young, she only remembered flickers of the fire that had taken her family's ancestral home. She was certainly too young to remember the details of her family tree, although her grandmother had taught her what she could remember. Freylan looked back at Clivius, her eyes flickering as he brought her attention to the cross on his chest. Tucking her head, Freylan nodded slowly, looking into his dark eyes. "They, um, repel us. But... it's really the silver in them, I'm told. The metal burns us..."

Clivius nodded slowly, absorbing this new information like a sponge. So there were other humans who took kindly to vampires... Clivius took some small comfort in the idea that he was no the first. He shifted in the grass, his fingers weaving and unweaving in a nervous tic, his head barely tilted as he listened. "Oh... silver," he murmured, putting his fingers to the cross, and he smiled slightly. "Luckily, this one isn't silver. It's ah... pewter, I believe? It's a bit heavy, actually. My father wears a matching one, but since we aren't very well off, silver is a bit out of the question," he chuckled, scratching at his hair in embarrassment. "But... if... if it bothers you, I... could take it off," he offered, his eyes growing solemn, his expression open.
