Summary
“Oh, spare me, Louis! I knew what you were doing but as you’ve so graciously pointed out, I am simply so desperate to be loved I ate up every crumb of the illusion!” Lestat’s eyes were wide and wild in that way only his got. His volume turned way up.
“It wasn’t an illusion,” Louis stated firmly.
Lestat laughed, cruel and disbelieving. “I don’t believe you.”
Louis sighed, eyes slipping closed. Silently beseeching himself to remain calm. Lestat was in a bad way, had been for some time. His feelings on the matter were valid, despite how much Louis wished to combat them.
He regretted his impulse reactions last night so much. Regardless of if he’d tried to make up for them after, his words clearly left some damage in their wake. The old wounds of the past, still festering beneath them. That's okay, Louis could work with some damage, heal the old wounds, it wasn’t beyond repair.
Nothing ever was, with them.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Lestat has spent nearly three centuries believing love was something he had to earn, endure, or survive.
Louis decides to show him otherwise.
