Hungry (Luc and Tay)

Tayla blushed faintly at the comment he obviously had seen her acting like an idiot.
"uh yeah I know thought i smelt that is all" she said trying to cover up her embaressment
"Any idea whose it is?" she asked leaning against the door as she watched Lucian head towards the bed.

Lucian sniffed the air again and furrowed his brow, trying to decipher the scent on the air. He thought silently to himself deciding that his idea was probably right even though he wasn't very good at using his nose yet.

"Male. Twenties. Has been in the company of a female."

He frowned again sniffing the air deeply

"That's all I got."

"Hmm interesting" Taya commented "I wonder who they were?" she said curiously before shrugging and walking over next to Lucian.
"So what did you want to do?"

Turning his head to look at Tayla he motioned for him to come out of the room and back to the stairs where he sat looking out the broken door to the woods beyond.

"I don't know...I've never really socialised much...what do you want to do?"

His eyebrows furrowed as Lucian frowned at Tayla,

"Why aren't you scared?"

"I don't know thats why i asked silly!" Tayla told him as she sat down beside him.
"I'm fairly certain i was dropped on my head a bit as a baby and my judgement of danger has always been a bit off. Gives Mum a bloody heart attack when she hears of some of the things i do" she responded to the second question fiddling with a hole in her jeans absentmindedly.

If Lucian could blush he would have done because he felt stupid for not knowing that's why she asked, he groans lightly but it turns into a weird sort of laugh...that would explain an awful lot about Tayla.

"Dropped on your head hm?"

Sticking out his Tongue Lucian relaxed on the stairs feeling the light breeze wafting over him.

"And will you be telling your mother you met a vampire?"

Tayla just grinned at Lucian before replying.
"Yes dropped on my head and purposely once by my cousin" chuckling she thought about his second question for a moment, mulling it over before replying.
"Hmm her reaction WOULD be amusing but then again she might lock me up and never let me leave the house again" Which Tayla thought sounded exactly like something her mother would do.

Lucian grins and taps Tayla lightly on the head, he found it nice that so many people have found him nice enough to not want to kill him after finding out what he was.

"Lock you up? Does not sound like a good time."

He chuckles and picks peeling paint off the banister on the stairs while he thought about his own parents.

"I think I'd die if my parents were like that...they don't really seem to care what I go as long as it's immoral."

"It's not" Tayla replied remembering the time she was locked in the house for a month when she was eight because she broke her arm climbing a tree "Mum's a bit overprotective and a worrier, Dad however is very easy going and relaxed as long as your safe and happy then he's okay. He can generally calm Mum down a bit too which he's had to do a few times"

As much as Lucian tried to show he is tough on the outside but the talk of parents made his heart tug wildly in his chest and he turned his head away from her gaze so that he couldn't be seen to be weak.

"Parents, in whatever form, are a beautiful thing."

Lucian smiled sadly and pokes a fang to try and distract himself.

"You are lucky Tay."

"I know I love them" Tayla said in response to his statement before hugging him. She had noticed his sadness it practically radiated of his being like an aura, in fact if she concentrated she could see a faint trace of blue grey around his body.
'Huh?' she thought to herself 'That's new'

Lucian froze. The feeling of her arms around him made him stand up and walk away from her leaning against the door frame and frowned lightly at Tayla, he titled his head to one side.

"Parents...are a sensitive issue for me."

He bit his lip lightly and stared at the floor.

"I'm sorry but can we not?"

"Sure thing Luci" Tayla told him smiling understandingly at him
"Chocolate frog?" she offered as she pulled two out of her bag and bit one's head off.

Lucian shook his head and declined the frog , he hated eating, when he had to he proffered to do it in private away from people. Stroking his fob watch Lucian tried to take his mind off the depressing conversation.

"Luci? Really?"

Shaking his head with a grin on his face Lucian prodded Taylas arm.

"That's a girls name."

"Yes Luci! Do you not like my nickname for you?" Tayla asked pouting slightly and poking him back "And Lucy is a girls name Luci is a male nickname."
As she said this Tayla fiddled with her hair a habit that she had never bothered to drop.

Lucian chuckled lightly and pressed the tips of his fingers together as he thought, casting his mind back to a couple of nights ago when he first met Tayla in the ice cream bar he smiled.

"They sound the same when you speak them though."

He shrugged his shoulders lightly and smiled.

"I guess" Tayla acquiesced "But I don't care it is your nickname. It's either Luci or... Vampy!"
Grinning widely Tayla reached into her pocket and pulled out a sugar quill and quickly devouring it happily.

Lucian looked at Tayla with bemusement in his eyes and he shook his head ruefully, what had he gotten himself into by making acquaintances with her.

"Luci it's going to have to be because Vampy kind of blows my cover more than it's blown already."

Shrugging his shoulders Lucian grinned:

"I think I'll call you Blood Bank."

"I guess so" Tayla said with a sheepish smile "Feel free it isn't the worst nickname I have" she said scrunching her face up in annoyance at the thought of her nicknames.
Tayla then grabbed a pack of Bertie Botts Beans and pulled out a pink one. 'Yum strawberry' she thought.
