Running was very freeing. It was like riding in a convertible car with the top down. It made Alastar feel good. When he didn't feel like sitting still in his home in Ireland he just ran, over hills, through forests, flat land anywhere. Just to get out. As he ran Alastar took in a large breath and thought about the events just in that morning. He had made an actual friend, not one he was using for his benefit, or one that was forced upon him. It felt good, but odd at the same time. Speaking of this friend, he should check on Angelique.

In mid step Alastar stopped and turned running back to the school. After he had gotten some more food for her, he left. But he didn't want to go to school. The bell had rang just as he left. It was pointless to him anyway. Might as well just go out. Breath fresh air, not contaminated by mortals. Now it had been about an hour. An hour should be long enough for some sort of healing to have occurred.

In fifteen minutes he had made it to the school and up into her room. "Knock knock." He said softly hopping in the window again. It was just because he felt cool doing it. He could have actually used the door at this time. "How're ya feelin'. Any better?" He moved over to her bed and looked her over.

Vampires were good liars in nature. That is what made them good hunters, to be able to pretend anything. Alastar could pull off any type of character he wanted. If he had the urge to work with mortals, he would make a great actor. But sense he didn't want to be trapped in an enclosed set with the smell of blood seeping into his clothes, he stayed away from the line of work. As he was jogging back to Angelique's room he though of Amelia and how he was deceiving her. He wanted to use her for blood and a little game. For some reason, right now he felt wrong about it. It hadn't occurred to him until now.

But now was no time to dwell on it as he looked over his friend. Her wounds seemed to be healing up very nicely, though she seemed to be in pain still. The forced smile told him everything before she spoke.

"Aye, but no pain no gain." A small smile came across his lips and he shrugged. "Well I have no problem offering mine. Especially for a.... friend." Friend came out sounding much like a question. He was still confused about that whole situation. How was a friend to act? He had Sarah and Kevin. But they were told to act like siblings. Was that how good friends acted? Jameson was just a father figure, Alastar assumed that was not a friend but a mentor.

Alastar sat on the side of the bed slowly and almost awkwardly. Just waiting for her response to his offer. Silently as always.

Alastar didn't really notice he was being awkward. He never did until it was pointed out to him a couple months ago.

----

Jameson had called the brand new cell phone. It was meant for "emergencies only" Alastar was told. Like most parents told their kids, except his situation was different. He had no friends to "text" or call. Plus he was a fan of long handwritten letters. They meant a lot more. The ring startled Alastar right out of his chair and it took him a couple rings to figure out how to answer the dang thing. He finally got it and he was just told to meet in the ally by their local bar.

Confused he did as he was told, like a compliant follower. When he arrived he was surprised to find two bodies. He was told they were just an experiment.

To save some time let's just say they were brought home and a few days later Sarah woke followed by Kevin. They were angry to say the least, but Sarah got over it fast and Jameson called a "family" meeting. Alastar was told these new vampires were for him. To improve his social life. It was commanded he act as though they were friends and actually talk to them. Again, Alastar was compliant.

At dinner he tried his very hardest to make small talk but it was so hard. Sarah just finally blurted, "You are really awkward. I think I can fix that." That is just one of the reasons they had really made the brother sister thing work. She was the only one he could really talk to. KEvin on the other hand is still really bitter and blames Alastar for everything. So that relationship isn't really there.

----

Thinking of Sarah brought a smile to his face and Angelique's words made it grow a little. " I am not no." He chuckled a little. "Well I don't really notice my awkwardness. You are the second person who has brought it to my attention though." He tilted his head and looked at her as she rejected his offer. She needed blood why did she reject. "And yet I would do so much more for you without a complaint my friend." This time it came out easier.

"You should be apart of my family. It must be so much better than yours." He didn't mean to say it. It just sort of came out as he thought it. Jameson probably wouldn't object, but she had a group. Even though it was horrible from what he saw, she was probably still loyal.

Alastar had expected a few reactions. He always anticipated all of the routes people could take, as a hunter tactic....and a personal habit. But her response was something he totally didn't expect. She actually looked like she was considering it. "I didn't mean to be so sudden. I am so sorry." He became awkward again as there was a silence. Angelique was debating his offer and he was again planning out all the possible ways she could reject.

After a solid two or so minutes he heard her voice again. This shocked him a little more than before. His eyes widened and his lips pulled up into a wide smile. After she called Jameson his leader, he just had to laugh a little. If he did approve her it would probably take her a while to get into the family theme of the coven's relationship.

"We are not like Sebastian. We belong to a family, not a dictatorship." As he spoke he pulled out his phone and dialed. Excusing himself for a quick second as he spoke to his "leader". Alastar was actually excited for something, for the first time in two hundred years. Ever since he went into his slump. Jameson could tell. Though Jameson couldn't promise anything until he met Angelique, it was pretty much a done deal when he heard the happiness.

After a couple minutes of talking he ran back to the bed side. "When ever convenient we will have to set up a meeting. After you heal. It may give you time to change your mind too." Sighing he looked over his clothing. His shirt was covered in blood from different people and his pants were covered in dirt. He desperately needed a shower but he didn't want to leave his new friend's side. That is until she fully healed. "Do you mind if I take a shower here?" He asked a little awkwardly. He could get new clothes later, he just needed to wash his dirty feeling skin.

[[ It seems Edan isn't jealous enough yet. So I thought I could bring him in. ]]

xxxxxx✗✘✓xxxxxxxx Slowly two class periods dragged on. Minute by minute until Edan couldn't take it any more. When the bell after his English class ended he moved quickly to the office. "Hi. I am looking for Angelique's room. It is an emergency." The lady behind the desk looked at him with a bored expression, that scared him a bit and tapped a few keys on the computer. Quickly she wrote down a dorm number, passed it to him, and shooed him away.

Edan looked at her confused but dismissed himself. He just wanted to say hi. Check up on her, maybe hold a conversation what he found was surprising. When he knocked on her door a sort of growl came from the other side.

Alastar came to the door quickly and opened it. He had his teeth barred, preparing to attack the threat. When he smelled human his face when neutral almost immediately. "Oh hello. Edan right?" Edan nodded with a perplexed look. "I wasn't planning to take visitors but you seem nice enough. I was just off to the shower."

Edan looked up the big muscle man up and down. His shirt was off and his pants were muddy. He was so confused, first it was Alex and now this guy. Edan was by no means strong. He was skinny, pale, had no fat as well as no muscle. And these guys that Angelique went for made him feel so small. "I can go. I am sorry to intrude." Alastar shook his head and shrugged. "Too late she knows you are here." And with that he dragged him by the arm into the room. "You have a guest." Alastar wasn't really able to read jealousy, sadness, or affection. He was just horrible at it. So the pained look in Edan's eyes didn't even register.

After Edan was set on the chair by the bed Alastar waved to Angelique and went to the bathroom. He still felt dirty and now he had the smell of mortal on him. Which was double as dirty.

Edan looked to the girl on the bed. "How.....how are you?"

xxxxxx✗✘✓xxxxxxxx Edan hadn't expected to be grabbed like that. Alastar had a strong grip on his arm. Almost crushing his bone, it was an abnormal strength, but Edan paid it no mind as he was still dwelling on the fact a half naked man was in Angelique's room. Off to use her shower. As harsh as Alastar handled him he just sat down and looked over the body in the bed, then looked about the room. It was pink, some how what Edan had pictured. That made him smile a bit.

Then his focus was brought back to her. "Yeah. Sickness sucks."Was all he could manage as the shower started. That sound of water just made him uncomfortable. He wiggled in his seat a bit. He stopped suddenly at her question.

What was he supposed to say? "Yeah I have the biggest crush on you and I was sad I didn't see you." Stalker much? His mouth opened a bit to say something but nothing came out. Then he heard a voice coming from the shower. Alastar had began singing in Gaelic loudly with a strong voice.

Not because he had forgotten he was in a different shower, or because it was a habit. No, he wanted to let Edan know he was still there. Since he had been saved by Angelique and in return saved her, he had been feeling oddly protective. Like a brother almost. It may have had something to do with the drinking of his blood, or just it was just his natural protectiveness that was coming out. Either way, he didn't like the mortal around. He really didn't like the goo goo eyes that were being made.

Edan clamped his eyes shut in a sort of calming moment and shook his head. "I was worried about you. But it seems things are fine." The inside of his gut was churning. "I....I should go." He bit his lip and began to stand.
