"No, I'm- I'm not joking," Ed spoke, furrowing his brows a little. "I've been asleep for a, God, a long time, and I am a vampire-"
-
James looked surprised for a moment, then he looked terrified. He shuffled away from Ed, pressing himself against the wall. ‘N-No, that’s not possible- Vampires aren’t real! P-Prove it!’
-
"Wh- How do I prove it? What, you want me to suck your blood?" Ed joked, chuckling softly before quickly stopping himself. "Sorry, not a funny joke-"
-
That totally didn’t terrify James more. ‘Yeah, uh, have a good night-‘ He stood up and grabbed his bag, keeping his eyes on Ed as he shuffled towards the door. ‘I might just, uh, leave-‘
-
"No!" Ed exclaimed, panicking. "Wait, please, I- I'm sorry, I didn't mean to scare you, that was never my intention," he spoke gently, a worried look on his face. "But, please, you- you don't have to leave, I-"
-
James watched him closely, slowly moving towards the door. ‘I-I’m sorry, but either you’re nutso or you’re gonna kill me in my sleep, and I don’t really want to wait and see,’ James said, voice slightly wobbly with fear.
-
"No, please, I- I'm not a killer, I s-swear," Ed spoke, his voice wavering a little. 'I'm not gonna date some blood-sucking murderer- are you crazy?!' His mind reminded him of the words of his lost love, tears filling his eyes. He crouched down, covering his head with his arms. "I'm sorry, please, I-I'm not a murderer..."
-
James watched him, peeking out from behind the doorframe. He was still scared, but felt a little bad for assuming the worst. ‘A-Are you okay?’
-
"Yes- No- I-I dunno," Ed mumbled, clutching his longish, dark curls in his hands.
-
James paused. He slowly approached him and crouched in front of him, grabbing his hands.
-
Ed flinched and looked up, meeting James' eyes with his own teary ones. "I-I'm sorry, I just-"
-
‘I-It’s okay. I-I’m just not that fond of vampires,’ James said quietly, giving a weak smile. ‘You seem okay, though.’
-
"I'm really not a bad guy," Ed mumbled, exhaling softly. "I-I promise, I don't like, suck people's blood- really, only ever animal's blood, since they're kind of similar."
-
‘Okay,’ James said quietly. He slowly let go of Ed. ‘S-So, you were being serious about being asleep for so long?’
-
"Yeah, I- I was," Ed replied, nodding and slowly standing.
