Welcome to Gaia! ::

Tilting her head as the echoing sound of grumbling stomachs filled the room, Mitsu turned toward Desmond with a worried look. "You should have told me you were hungry. I could have at least gotten you something." He didn't really like the bottled blood, she could tell by the look on his face when he drank it, but it was better than nothing right?

"And...you can always ask me." She added softly, her eyes trailing to the still prominent puncture marks on his torso. What had caused those anyway?

"It probably wouldn't be a good idea, Mitsu..." Klyde offered up in Desmond's defense. "Control is tough when we're hungry.." Slowly Klyde eased his way out of bed, his face the picture of misery. He was stiff and sore all over despite how comfortable the bed had been. Hats off to Lou and Suto for making him feel the worst he had ever felt.

Mitsu really didn't say anything to Klyde but instead looked back to Desmond....and then around her bed. "Where is your shirt?"

Making his way over to the bathroom Klyde brought up a hand to rasp against the door with the back of his knuckles. "Riyo?" To aid in staying upright he leaned against the door frame hoping it wouldn't take her long to answer. He needed to get something to eat quickly, the small amount of swill he had drank the night before hardly helped anything. Though, the lingering memory of Riyo's blood mixed among it made his mouth water, his stomach twisting in a needy way.

"Your shirt got taken?" Mitsu had no idea why someone would take their shirts. Though she really didn't understand the urge that most people had to fight either.

When Desmond scooted a little closer, those cold fingers lightly touching her neck, Mitsu subconsciously moved her head to the side. He wouldn't hurt her after all. Desmond never drank that much anyway. Even if he was really hungry she could handle it, right? "It's..okay." Mitsu said softly casting Klyde's warning to the side.

That was strange, the water was running but Klyde had received no answer. Maybe she just couldn't hear over the running water? No matter, he would come back later once he had eaten and wasn't on edge to feed.

"Come on, Desmond let's-" Klyde turned just enough to see his cousin caressing his girlfriend's neck a little too fondly. While normally Klyde wouldn't care....hey good for Desmond, at the moment he knew he was bordering on dangerous need so he could only imagine Desmond was much the same. Though Klyde also realized he was a glutton.

If the scent of blood filled the air Klyde wasn't sure what would happen. "D..Desmond." He muttered heading toward his fellow vampire with effort. "L-let's go." Klyde pushed out, the need for food almost overpowering. "Unless you want your girlfriend to feed us both." He added hoping the warning would sink in.

One little drop of blood, that was all it took for Klyde to be like a shark in water. All sense of reason faded away at the drop of a hat as he felt his self control slipping through his fingers. "********..."

Eyes now aglow with hunger, Klyde turned toward the bathroom and the source of that delicious scent. It called to him, pleaded for him to have just a taste, a small sip of what heaven would be like.

Staggering toward the bathroom, one arm still wrapped around his torso Klyde reached for the door. Giving no warning this time Klyde threw the door open, one hand braced against the frame to keep his worn body upright. Bright lavender eyes gleamed as they scored the bathroom for Riyo, his face looking a little less than friendly at the moment. He was a predator looking for his prey.

Mitsu actually looked a little worried when Klyde approached, his words sinking in a little better. Though she was more worried that he would attack and no so much that Desmond would hurt her.

When Desmond pulled her in closer, Mitsu rested her hands against his chest, feeling his lips brush against her neck. It was such a gentle action but his words were what alerted her to something wrong. The 'I can't' was the trigger key to the lack of control. "Desmond?"

When Riyo pushed back the shower curtain, Klyde's eyes locked on. Making his way toward her he didn't even issue a sound, just raised his hand up toward her like he meant to take hold of her.

He was like a prisoner to his need to feed though Riyo had come to except him for that....how cruel would it be though if he ended up taking her life from draining her dry? The thought tore at his insides but still he kept moving forward, staggering when the pain in his leg started to flair up. He had been about to reach for Riyo but instead had to take hold of the frame of the shower to keep from falling.

"R...Riyo..." His voice was almost pleading. Just one sip, just a little bite wouldn't hurt.

"Nn," Mitsu flinched slightly as the sensation of sharp enamel broke the skin of her neck. His hold on her was rough, which would have been fine but her stomach...it still hurt pretty bad. "D-Desmond. Not so rough." She breathed softly hoping he could hear her.

There was the urge to struggle, but Mitsu knew better. She had learned well enough from Suto that struggling only made the situation worse. So instead she relaxed the best she could as Desmond pulled her closer hoping he had better control that Klyde gave him credit for.

Klyde wasn't about to let Riyo get away as she escaped to the back of the shower. No, the pull was too great. Following in after her the water from the shower instantly flattened out his hair into a mess of wet curls. It did little to help wake him out of this zombie like state he was in, but hey...at least he would be clean, though his clothes would be soaked. (Not sure if the shower was still on...just assuming XD; )

Coming up close to Riyo, Klyde stooped closer putting a hand on either side of her to pin her in. His tongue darted across his lips shortly to wet them, already tasting the sweet drink she could provide. When he smiled at her his fangs were oddly prominent, his head dipping down to press a kiss to her cheek before continuing to her neck.

Mitsu sighed lightly in relief when Desmond loosened his grip. He may not have let her go but he had heard her. That was something. Relaxing a bit more she closed her eyes, letting her head rest on his shoulder while he continued to tend to the wound on her neck.

She stayed that way for a while until she realized she was starting to doze off. The lack of blood was making her sleepy and she wasn't sure how safe it would be to fall to sleep while Desmond was feeding. "Desmond..." She spoke softly, a hand reaching up to touch the side of his neck. It didn't seem like she had let him drink that much but the blood loss from last night really hadn't been replenished. "I'm getting tired..."

The effort Riyo exerted was all but wasted. Klyde barely budged an inch as she pushed against him, his lips brushing against the delicate flesh of her neck. He could feel the blood running through her veins underneath, hear her heart beating in her chest. It was like music to him as he parted his mouth a little wider to press his canines to her skin.

Normally Klyde would have asked permission though usually Riyo offered. There was no such courtesy this time as his teeth pierced skin, instantly drinking away at the thick crimson liquid that graced his tongue. His mind was reeling at the first taste, his body overjoyed to finally have the substance it so badly craved.

"D-Desmond." There was a hint of panic in her voice when he didn't respond but instead continued to drink. He had never drank this greedily before and it made her start to wonder...would he drink her dry without meaning to? The only thing she could think of was the story he had told her of the little girl. Would this haunt him all the same?

"De-Desmond." She called again trying to press against him. Her strength wasn't with her at the moment not that it would really matter. Desmond was much stronger than her after all. Thankfully though, he came to. She wasn't sure what had managed to bring him back to consciousness but she was glad all the same. As he pulled her into an embrace her limbs fell weakly to the sides all but useless at the moment.

"I guess you really were hungry..." She commented lightly, placing a hand over the wound on her neck. "It's okay....I'm fine."

Neko wasn't much of a morning person so as usual he was late to work. He had just managed to drag himself out of bed and get dressed contemplating if it would be possible to sleep another hour and get away with it. Hakim never really said anything, he knew the feline kept late hours keeping an eye on things....mostly.

Moving into the kitchen Neko glanced to the side seeing the case of blood he had purchased the night before. Hmm...what had that been for again? Eh, he was sure it would come to him. Thinking was best left after a cup of coffee anyhow.

Taking his sweet time, Neko brewed himself a nice strong cup of coffee. He had just managed to take his first sip when his eyes darted back over to the case of blood again as if doing a delayed double take. Being so early it still took his brain a few seconds to register why that should alert him to something being wrong. But when it ******** throwing his coffee cup to the side Neko grabbed up the case of unopened bottles and snatched up his car keys before running outside. How could he have been so stupid? Had he actually left two injured vampires with two girls in the middle of the night and with nothing to eat? Could he have made that situation any worse? It was like one stupid thing after another.

Muttering a string of curses Neko hopped into his jeep and made his way back to the dorms. If he was lucky he would get there in time to prevent a mess of things. He had really kicked himself in the a** with this one.

As Klyde continued to feed his hands drifted down, one resting on Riyo's shoulder while the other went to cradle her head and move it further to the side. Her defensive stance nor the tension throughout her body registered in his mind. If it had he surely would have stopped. Instead the only thing that warranted a thought was food and the fact that he was slowly starting to feel better because of it.

Mitsu's sleepy eyes softened at Desmond's words. Maybe this had been too risky after all. "I just....wanted to help." She said softly.

The wound was bleeding pretty good though. She could feel the blood slipping between her fingers warm and wet. There would be no quick healing to fix this. She had been rather stupid hadn't she? "In...the bathroom." Mitsu responded to Desmond's question pointing in that direction. She and Riyo had quite the first aid kit thanks to being bullied. It was better to have that then experience another awkward moment at the nurse's office.
