After making sure Leib was settled enough and stimulated enough at the hospital, and going to put in a few hours at the library, Dhani headed to the bar. He knew he’d have to talk things out with Keith sooner or later... And with Leib’s heart attack, Dhani realized what a real asshole he had been by trying to avoid getting attached to Leib. He realized, in a way, he’d been acting like Keith. Putting up some front to stop himself from getting hurt. It was bullshit and he knew it. And Leib had just undergone major surgery. He could have died without knowing that Dhani really did care as much as he did for him.

It didn’t matter that Leib was human and Keith wasn’t. Shit happened. Maybe less to vampires, but life was unpredictable that way. Dhani kept loosing people, and he knew that was a part of life, unavoidable. But it didn’t need to be because Dhani was too stubborn not to try and make things right.

He entered Keith’s office, knocking on the door before coming in. He heaved a sigh before even speaking. “I’m not sorry for speaking my mind. I’m sorry that I said things in anger. You know, that night the storm was making everyone pretty... out of it. I do think you’re a good boss, most of the time. That’s not bullshit. But... look, Keith, with Leib’s heart attack and all the responsibilities I have here, I think... maybe it’s best if I just take a break. From here.”

The sound of a chuckle made Alfie look up in fury, the hot tears in his eyes stinging as he ran the back of his hand along his face, trying to hide the emotions building in his chest. He was about to snap, to say something aggressive and most likely stupid, but he was surprised when the other seemed to be trying to help him. He took a deep, shaky breath, and then blinked a few times. “This ain’t normal,” he told the other. “Nothing ‘bout this is normal,” he told him seriously.

[text] Keith: You looked particularly moody today. Did you drop a potion or something?

Trxt; Do you wanna be a frog now or something? 🐸

Juniper wasn’t used to this level of noise, the club was loud and people were dancing, having fun and just being rowdy and enjoying themselves. She watched the people around her as she made her way to the bar, wondering if this was why Colton always told her to avoid the place- but knowing it wasn’t that. He’d always told her to avoid it because it was vampire owned, she knew that. He’d never explained his reluctance to going into vampire owned establishments but there had been one. Maybe it was because they wouldn’t let him get away with his bullshit. She thought as she ordered her drink, a bloody Mary with a little more blood than Mary, and after paying and getting the drink she moved to a seemingly empty area, against a wall where she could check in with herself and she could see how she was feeling.

 Sipping the drink she concluded that she was a little overwhelmed but otherwise okay. Nodding to herself she was thinking about heading back out to the floor again when she saw the owner of the club. Giving Keith a small smile she stepped out of his way since he was walking right towards her, assuming he was trying to get past her, surprised when he stopped in front of her instead. “I like your club!” Okay maybe that was a bit much. She didn’t dislike it. She just wasn’t used to this.

Truth Serum! Who's someone you'd like to know more?

“M-Matthew and Grace of course. I’d like to know a-all my friends a b-bit more though and I-I just met a couple new people.”

     Anye had been meaning to pay Keith a visit, but perhaps she had been avoiding him. She'd been avoiding everyone really but she had been really avoiding the people that had wormed their way underneath her guard. She was afraid she would hurt them, or they would see her for the horrible creature that she was. It was easier to pull away than have people leave. It hurt less and then at least she was in control.

Anye didn't like not being in control.

But lately she realized that she was being selfish again, protecting herself without regard for other people's feelings and she knew that was wrong. She needed to do better. She would do better.

She sighed, clutching a bottle of expensive bourbon in her grasp and leaned on the door frame to Keith's office.

“Hi.” She said softly, offering a sheepish smile as she raised the bottle. “I bought a sorry I've been distant gift.”

“If I tell you what I did, we’ll probably never see one another again.”

“Well, you can’t exactly say something like that and expect me not to ...not want to know what you’re talking about. Maybe I should decide that. Don’t you think?”

Dhani couldn’t help but be a bit upset with his bosses words. Why would he even bring it up then? Dhani knew he had probably killed people, he was a vampire after all, and it wasn’t exactly easy for Dhani to adjust his morality scale to not judging supernaturals for things he believed were inherently wrong, it had taken him years to make exceptions.

“Tell me.”

“Oh-- fuck.”

Dhani gasped as the man moved faster than he should have. Like... a vampire. He remembered that from his dreams. He took a slow breath taking a moment to consider the man’s tone, the concern in his voice. Knowing of him, right away. That had to be better than someone running into him, concerned for a fellow troubled human being but not a friend. 

“Sorry-- You scared me...” Dhani tried to look less lost and frazzled than he was.

“I’m sorry, I don’t know who you are. Or who I am... actually. I woke up and couldn’t ...you know, remember anything.”
