Zane watched her as she looked at her drink like it was thing missing most in her life. "Yes I can walk you back." He said, his human form was starting to get itchy. He paid for the both of them and got up. "Come on." He said.


"You didn't have to do that ...but thanks"she got out the money she owed him and held them up for him


Melody was still confused. It was liquid how could a liquid become smoother than it already was. "Um ok...?" She said hesitantly.




10 minutes later she got up and headed for the place she hated the most






"ya, some can be, its an acquired taste" he said he gave her a different one "this one is better" he said



The man handed her the glass, "There you go Allana," He said with a small smile.
Allana looked up at the man, "Thanks." She took a sip.




Allana bit her lip as she stared down at her drink. she pushed it away, keeping her head down at all times as she thought about whether confronting him like that was the right thing to do. Was he going to be anrgy at her because she pushed it just a little to far? He walked out before beause she opened her mouth and asked questions. She wondered if she had made the wrong decision, but she felt it was right. It was the kind of girl she was, and if he couldnt deal with it then that was his problem, not hers. And she wasnt going to change herself. She sighed, running her fingertips through her hair and was about to turn around, but was rather surprised when she saw Daniel standing behind her. She looked up at him, biting her lip as she wondered what he was going to say.

Daniel blinked as she finally turned around, swallowing nervously. "Um....I'm sorry... about... walking out so suddenly... and trying to avoid you... and I'm sorry if I made you feel bad or anything like that... it's just... you're the only friend I have, probably in the entire world and... I guess I sort of panicked a bit at first," he told her, scratching the back of his head as he looked at the ground. "And to be honest, you're the first person who ever bothered to talk to me past the whole vampire stuff so... thanks for that," he said, shifting his weight. "I may not want to talk about it right now but... maybe in the future...?" he told her, finally looking up at her with a questioning look.

Allana looked up at him, biting her lip. He was apologizing? She gently placed her hand on his shoulder, "Its okay, really. I completely understand, Its hard for you, but you dont always have to do it alone," She whispered, looking into his eyes when he finally looked up at her. "It takes a lot to scare me off, really. So dont worry about it, just because your a vampire, doesnt mean I'll just hate you," She smiled softly. "Hey, no pressure. You can talk to me anytime you want, whenever you want." She stepped a little closer, gently hugging him.

Daniel smiled softly, relief washing over him that she was forgiving him for his actions. He nodded a little, comforted by her words. He was a little surprised when she gave him a little hug, but he felt so relieved, and so happy that he had at least someone to count on, that he ended up hugging her back, wrapping his arms around her, and never wanting to let go. He let out a soft sigh, and felt his thirst ebb a little, his eyes returning to normal, and for the first time in a long while, he felt at peace.














Melody smiled and handed him his mug back, before sipping more of her water.
