Day 51: Lunch

Aug 14, 2010 16:35

Edward was glad to wake up to a period of respite. While he had been conscious during breakfast, he'd requested to remain in his room for extra "sleep", which had consisted waiting until the room was vacated to ingest the vial of Venom's blood. The vampire had lost his chance last night, but that might have been for the better; this way he wasn't ( Read more... )

[I see what you did there.]The situation with Edward's fiance grew terse and uncomfortable, but in the least it was short-lived. As nice a girl as she seemed, he couldn't afford to grow close to either one of them if he wished for anything to function properly and though he had taken the time to scold her, it was for the betterment of everyone that she understand where they stood.

Venom could see the exasperation on Edward's face as he handed over the sheet of paper, and he couldn't say he cared for it. He said he didn't need it. He already made his point to the vampire perfectly clear, and yet the other was acting for all the world as if the assassin was twisting his arm into giving him what he wanted.

He wasn't. Edward had seen him being demanding. That was nowhere near it. He didn't understand...

His attention turned to the given sketch, the creases in its surface making the already dark blots of ink drown in shadows. Photo-realistic it might have been before, but image was still tarnished now. No amount of care would undo that.

It was better that way.

Time was coming to a close in any case, and this wasn't a topic he was willing to speak with Edward on. Hands against the table's edge, he pushed himself up and out of his chair, then turning his back to the sight and moving on. He offered one command as he moved, voice hardened.

"Throw it away."
