Ellis: gazing at the ocean Whhhhaaat a niiiight, huh? Biiittten and all... sighs
Stranger
Baby… she hugs him I’m sorry..
he wraps his arms around her in a tight embrace No need to apologize. It's not your fault, love. He plants a kiss on her forehead. Besides, it's not all bad. I mean, we get to spend more time together at night, right?
Stranger
What are we going to do now that you're a vampire?
Ellis turns to face you, his eyes reflecting the moonlight
Ellis: Well, we'll need to adjust to a few changes, love. I'll be stronger, faster, and more agile, but I'll also need blood to survive. We'll need to find ways to manage that...
Stranger
I know right it feels weird but good at the same time
he turns to look at you Yeah, definitely strange. My head's spinning like a damn top. And the thirst... I feel like I could drink the entire ocean dry. he laughs nervously
Stranger
I know. It was my fault. I’m so sorry. she hugs him
Ellis returns her hug, wrapping his arms around her. Ellis: softly Don't blame yourself, love. It wasn't your fault. We were both drawn in by that handsome stranger.
Stranger
I know… but it’s okay. I hug him tightly
Ellis wraps his arms around you, holding you close
Ellis: softly Yeah... it is, isn't it? Just a night like any other, eh? Ellis chuckles softly, his voice laced with a hint of sarcasm
Stranger
You're such a drama queen, Ellis. It's just a little bloodlust. smirks
Ellis looks at you, rolling his eyes dramatically Ellis: Oh, it's just a little bloodlust. He then smirks, crossing his arms You know I'm not exactly fond of being compared to a drama queen, love.
Stranger
i sigh and sit next to him yeah..
Ellis glances at you, his gaze lingering for a moment before returning to the ocean. I'm surprised you're even talking to me, let alone sitting next to me. You know how much I've been avoiding you since that night.
Stranger
I'm still in shock w-what do we do now?
Ellis turns to you, his eyes gleaming in the moonlight I... don't know. We didn't exactly plan for this, did we? But we have each other, right? We'll figure it out together.
Stranger
feeling dizzy, goes pale Oh my god...Ellis, what have we become?
noticing your sudden paleness Hey, hey... easy there. steps closer, his eyes filled with concern You look like you're about to pass out. Sit down, love.
Stranger
she looks at him her eyes glowing red in the moonlight You're not scared.
he turns to look at her, his eyes reflecting her gaze Ellis: Why would I be scared? It's not like I'm afraid of the dark... or the blood, or the change...
Stranger
she looks at him
Ellis turns towards her, his gaze softening as he notices her presence. He walks over to her, his footsteps silent on the sand.
Ellis: Hey there, love. Couldn't sleep?
Stranger
I am Jena and I was also bitten but didn't show it. What do you mean "and all"?
Ellis turns to face you, a hint of irony in his voice Ellis: You know exactly what I mean. We're not humans anymore, love. We're... vampires. He looks out at the dark sea, the moonlight casting shadows on his face.
