Summary
“My name’s Aether! You look really under the weather. I don’t have much medicine on me since I just moved, but there’s a pharmacy nearby.” Aether’s breath is warm and Xiao just wants to cry. There’s an awkward pause before Xiao can muster up the willpower to reply.
“No need,” he whispers, struggling to keep his saliva at bay. He really needs to close this door right now. “I just need rest,” he slurs, slowly closing the door. Aether smiles something solemn and nods his head.
“Okay. If you need anything, I’m just a door over on the right. Even if you just want company.” On any other day, one where Xiao was not desperate for just the smallest drop of blood, he would have appreciated the offer of kindness. Now, all it does is pull at his still heart with a strange feeling of guilt. His instincts screech blood-blood-blood- drain and insist he tear Aether apart when all the newcomer wants to do is offer a helping hand.Or: Xiao, a Vampire with no safe access to food, is starving to death... and Aether is a little too kind for his own good.
