Shaylene jumped to the side when he hit the tree, then she was at his side, wrapping her arms around his wasit, chin resting on this shoulders. Sure, she had to stand on tiptoe to achieve this. Don't bother. If the dart held any kind of poison, my body'll just flush it out one way or another. Red told him, glancing at the tree.

V was still fuming but he clasped the hands around his waist and sighed. "Why the hell is she doing this?" In his mind this question became his priority above all others, he'd put away the Day Circle and rebellious Night People who were making human slave trades who were risking the thin fragile disguise from people. He turned to her and held her chin in his hand. "I won't let her do it again."

People do strange things. Red suggested, shrugging. Red smiled a little, another shrug lifting her shoulders. I'm not all tat worried about it. Unless I, you know, start coughing up blood or something.

V's eyes darkened to a deep purple. "Don't joke like that." His body was stiff as steel itself and he had to fight to keep his hand a light on her chin.

Shaylene fell silent as she stood there, watching him wearily. I am fine. She told him after a few minutes.

He looked down at her and then turned away taking a few paces. "He could see she was weary, almost fearful. He didn't want her to be scared of him. That would be the worst. He breathed a second then forced a smile on his face and looked at her. It hurt him to smile, but he'd do it for her. "Yeah, I know. Just overreacting, I guess. No worries."

Don't smile unless you want to. Shaylene told him, noting the forced one he wore. She ran her finger through her hair and secured a scruntchi to hold it back. I could go for food. She said suddenly, trying ot find a way to distract him from his worries.

V's smile warmed a couple of degrees. "Sure. Let's head back. You want me to make you something or want take out?"

Shaylene kept pace with Vitae as they walked back and she answered, Which ever. As long as it is edible. And, not smothered in tomatoes or mushrooms. She wrinkled hr nose at thought.

If it still moo's, it is cooked just right. Shay replied, joking fully. Though steak did sound really good.
((Aaaand, now I want steak. stare ))

(( And now I want ice cream and there's a foot of snow outside... What does that say about me? ))
"I'll cook you some steak then." V said his smile nowhere near as forced as before. He pushed open the main door and they were back in the foyer.

(( Um... Maybe. Lol. ))
He walked into the kitchen and pulled out a steak from the freezer and set to defrosting it. "Speaking of blood. I wonder why that lunatic wants my blood."

Shaylene took a seat at the table and shrugged. Some freaky experiment, no doubt.
