You'd be surprised

Oren

Are you going to Nolan's party?

Me

Not sure yet

Oren

He's going to send someone to get you guys if you don't show

Me

I'll see what I can do, but I don't think Rhone does parties

Oren

He will if you do

Translation: Rhone did, in fact, not do parties.

Me

Bloom wants us to go too, so we'll probably be there

Oren

Thanks

Glad you made it through the fight without devolving

Me

Same

I put my phone down as Rhone slid a plate of food in front of me.

I stared down at the food.

He'd sliced the chicken breast in half long-ways, because he knew I took tiny bites to force the food down.

There was a soupy sauce, even though I'd heard Rhone complain about soup not being real food at least twice.

He'd included rice, too, because it was one of the easiest things for me to get down.

And a whole candy bar on the side, which was his way of telling me he didn't think I'd eaten enough that day.

I looked up from the food. "Thank you."

"Thank me by eating, so I don't have to worry as much for a few hours."

"You worry about me?"

"Of course I do." I expected him to add,you're a turned vampire,but he said instead, "You're mine."

"You're still possessive?"
