The door opened, and Lei felt the hairs on the back of her neck stand on end. “Thanks. Did I wake you?” She asked, holding on to the strap of her bag as she walked into Adam’s place, turning to look at him. “I – “ Oh, now that she was here, the nerves were started to eat at her, twisting her stomach into knots that made her feel like she might be sick.
“I have a question…and if it’s strange, just – let’s say it’s my lack of sleep making me see things.” Lei rambled, pulling out her sketch book, holding it to her chest. “I was going through my sketches and photos, and I noticed something…sometimes, you look…different? Not yourself. I don’t know what it is. I guess it’s been on my mind since the other day with the cookies..” She shook her head, sitting down. Adam had explained that strange day off as him being tired, but Lei was still concerned for her friend.
Lei looked up at him, brow furrowing. “Like right now, something feels different. Am I just going crazy, Adam?” She asked, looking up at him. “I’m worried about you. I am, and I don’t want to pry, but I – “ Lei pulled out one page she had printed out with two photos on it. To her, they seemed vastly different. One was colder, a little harsh around the edge; while the other was the gentle, warmth that she had come to associate with Adam.

Tasty little thing, he sniffed and the scent of her blood made his mouth water. Not NOW, not so SOON, waiting was in order not to be caught, at least until he got a hint of who she was, or her name at least.
Feeling no need to speak any further, she was doing all the talking, the vampire just listened and looked at everything she would give him. Taking especial interest in the last objects she handed him, sparkling his ever growing curiosity on the matter.
So this is how I look like?, he mused frowning, he’d better look the way he believed his appearance was, vastly different from the one picture before him. Make no mistake, Adam was a handsome man, no doubt, but not as much as he is.
❛ You are very observant, they don’t look the same. ❜ Sage began talking while taking a seat next to her, perhaps too close for her own comfort, just an excuse to bring in that delicious smell of her through his nostrils. ❛ Does it bother you? That I feel different. But don’t worry, I’m perrrfectly fine. ❜
