He let her run her hand over his scars like he'd done with her, shivering slightly as she did, it was odd talking about it all after having isolated himself for long. Ash looked to her, listened to her words, and wondered if he deserved this, this comfort, this companionship, this whatever this was. In the end he pushed that thought away for now, he'd think on it a lot later, but for now he'd enjoy this."Thank you," he said in a half whisper, as someone else was near, as if they were words only she should hear. The young vampire looked at her, she made him feel human, alive again, a person again and not the thing he was, the thing he'd become.
Before he knew it, his arms were wrapped around her, holding her close, feeling her warms, his nose filling with her scent. He'd wandered for so long, been alone and lost that he'd almost forgotten what it was like to just talk, to share, how important it was, an important piece of life.
"I....," he looked down at her, the odd girl, who did odd things and made him feel odd things, "I guess we'll be here for each other."
