You Might as Well Keep Quiet, Sweetie! [Aurel]

[datcurl]

Maybe inviting Nils over to the hammock wasn't exactly the best idea. He could feel the other try to edge his way up again but with the hammock being, well, a hammock, it made the boy just slide back down against him. There were a couple more vain attempts before the Norwegian just crossed his arms. Aurel chuckled at that, it looked rather cute, to be honest.

"Oh that's good! The not-sick part, that is." he grinned at bit, noticing the Norwegian yawn. It was rather late, for most people. Heh, that sucks, Aurel was just starting to feel rather energized,"Guess we're not that different then, you and I." What a coincidence really, for someone who depended on the blood of others to meet up with someone who depended on warmth and then end up like this. It was almost like a story of some sort.

Aurel shivered a bit, involuntarily, once Nils put a hand on his arm, feeling the heat be absorbed by the boy. Maybe this is similar to what it feels like to be bitten, except that the Romanian wasn't feeling high like most people did once he got his fangs settled in their flesh. He blinked when the other started to nuzzle him and purr like a satiated cat. Nils just looked so adorable like that... Aurel didn't even notice that he was running his hand down the Norwegian's hair like some pet until Nils must've decided that he'd taken enough and started to pull back.

It was Aurel's turn to wear a wide smile now and he pet the other on the back,"Hey, it's alright! I understand; you don't know how often I've felt like doing that too. But fortunately I've managed to not do that anymore..." He thought he noticed Nils blush harder, "I guess you can say we're even now, unless I want another drink," The Romanian licked his lips and gave a teasing smirk before giving out a laugh. Of course he wouldn't do that! Well... maybe... Oh god, here we go again. Aurel, you are not drinking Nils' blood twice in a day. But then again, the first time might have been before midnight, so it would technically be in separate days- oh would you just please stop thinking about this?

"So cute..." He whispered under his breath before promptly shutting his mouth and blushing a bit himself. Darn, did he really say that? Please say that it was soft enough that the other couldn't hear it, Aurel didn't want to sound anything like some kind of creep, not after finally meeting someone who wasn't immediately freaked out from being bitten by him.

He stared down, not particularly looking at anything and thinking about what to say,"Do you have to take heat regularly? I assume you don't have to take it from people necessarily." Aurel couldn't see any reason why it would be limited to people, but if it did, that would just suck. He guessed that Nils could just live life without absorbing heat from other things regularly. Having a slightly lower temperature doesn't affect overall health all that much, at least not as much as severe anemia. It would be easier to get away with, too. Just simple, normal human contact, no biting or anything.

[jegernorge]

Feel warm was actually great, after a long while. Nils never got far too many chances to take any warmth from anyone much less a student with vampire-ish tendencies, but he felt oddly relieved at that. At least now he knew he could trust Aurel to an extent, since they both depended on a... sort of special need, blood and heat. It was strange, when things were put that way, and Nils wondered what sort of relationship would they have with such traits, but then again, maybe they would just never meet again, he'd never know.

Despite the fact he had even pulled back, Aurel's hand softly caressing his hair was still lingering, the touch somehow. Nils scratched the back of his neck to distract himself, trying to think of something else. Aurel spoke again, and the Norwegian tilted his head to the side, craning his neck only to spot the Romanian licking his lips, smirking at him. "Oh, shut up, I've already fed you for the day, you can't be that hungry!" He hissed, pulling a bit back, away from the Romanian, before something clicked on his mind. He was joking, but what if...

Nils was about to ask something really important about Aurel's powers, but he quickly paused in the middle of his thoughts, cut off by nothing more than a whisper. Had Aurel just called him... Cute? Nils blinked and frowned, staring at nothing in special. "I am not... whatever." The Norwegian muttered, going red again, for the tenth time on that night. He decided not to press much on the matter, coughing and looking away from the other. For a moment or two, all Aurel had was a nice view of Nils' neck, pale in the light coming from the window, by the other side of the room.

Nils shook his head again, sighing and coughing slightly before he turned again back, to face the other. "Hm? Oh, no... I can live just fine with my body colder than normal, I just can't give my heat away too much, or else I'll die. Hard to control, but you get the hang of it." He smiled softly, looking at the little he could see from Aurel in the darkness. "I honestly just notice how cold I am when I'm close to other people, like you and me right now..." He tried to point it, but his hand ended up bumping into Aurel again. Damn, he couldn't see much.

Still, that 'cute' thing wouldn't leave his mind. Which was strange, and it's not like he didn't like being complimented, but he felt rather... well, it wasn't something he got daily. Actually, Nils hasn't been called cute in a long while. "Aurel..." Nils called, coughing a bit and covering his mouth, narrowing his eyes before he blushed. "Are you hitting on me?"

[datcurl]

Aurel bit his lip and blushed, also looking aside. Darn him and his impulsiveness making things awkward. He wondered if this was just another vampire thing, since he wasn't so impulsive before he got his powers. He looked back at Nils but his eyes stopped at the neck, the faint light barely hitting anywhere else. Aurel just stared at it for a moment. Luckily he had just enough self-control to keep himself from lunging at the Norwegian right there, but boy the idea was tempting.

"Ah, I see..." he replied absentmindedly. He only got about half the words and barely saw the slight smile because even though Nils had turned his head, Aurel could still see that neck. He bit the inside of his lip again, this time harder, and he must've done it a bit too much since he could now taste his own blood-which tasted bad, but didn't help things at all. If anything, it just made the Romanian want more.

"Wh-what?" The question had set him off guard, face flushing up immediately. Well, was he hitting on Nils? "I um, no. Yes... No. Maybe?" his words staggered like some broken CD player, "...Depends on what you'd prefer." Yes, he was rather aware that his final answer probably didn't help things but what else could he say? He couldn't just outright reject it because well... he wasn't sure what he was actually doing.

Aurel looked away for a moment, face burning up by the second after it had felt cold just moments ago. He just stared at the ground, sucking at his own blood without really giving a second thought. It wasn't much, but it was already starting to make him dizzy. The Romanian swerved to Nils and leaned toward him. Any outsider would've thought that he was moving for a kiss, but the way the hammock swayed around made Aurel lose balance and practically go on top of the Norwegian, hand pinning down the other's arms. The hat fell off but he couldn't care less at the moment.

His mouth hovered right above Nils' neck, "Oh god, I can't help it, really can't." he whispered, voice slightly husky. He bit down deep and it tastes so much better this time, now that Nils was warmer and that he could get blood straight from the neck. Only better place was on the chest, right above the heart, but that's impossible to get to most of the time. He tried to take his time, to savor the moment because who knows the next opportunity he gets if ever, but without taking so much that the Norwegian faints in front of him.

Eventually, reluctantly, Aurel pulled his fangs out, licking at the bite marks he'd just made. He lifted his head up enough to get a good view of Nils' face and... just stared for a long moment, not really thinking or feeling anything, just staring. He looked at all the details of the boy's face from the hairs which would go all the way down to his blue eyes, cheeks which were still flushed, the chin which had tilted just enough for Aurel to get a good bite.

It seemed like he would keep that gaze forever, but the Romanian eventually came back to his senses. Aurel looked away, both hands increasing their grip on the Norwegian's arms, only to pull back in an equally sudden manner. He melted into a shadow and slid away to the other side of the room, becoming solid again to lean his head on a window and just sulk. What in the world have you just done, Aurel? You bit this guy you've never met, then got him to think and you were hitting on him, and then you just bit him again! Great work right there. Might as well just join a traveling circus and start feeding on little kids.

"If you want to, you can just go now," he muttered, breaking his silence. He looked back over at Nils and gave a fake smile, though he wasn't sure if the other could even see it, "I'd understand- no hard feelings." That was a complete and utter lie, the last part, that is. He was already blaming himself, for everything. Bad habit? One could say that, though Aurel thinks that he just knows when something was his responsibility but he screwed it up. And boy did he screw up here. So he just stood there, waiting, secretly hoping that Nils wouldn't leave. But why would the other even contemplate staying? Most people would've run off a while ago.

[jegernorge]

Depends on... him? Nils wanted to just laugh at that. Obviously the boy was hitting on him, some strange charm he had that Nils couldn't exactly point out to, then, resist. It felt a lot different than how things went with Eirik way back then, maybe because he was a little kid, and both were awfully shy and innocent. Nils didn't know what to say, what to do, so he slowly turned his head, only to be tossed back on the hammock, a faint yell escaping from his lips. Nils' eyes went round as plates then.

He felt lips on his neck, and a tight grip on both his wrists. Aurel's voice tone had changed completely to a husky and low voice, pinning him down against the hammock and muttering about how much he couldn't control himself. Nils parted his lips, ready to hiss a sneaky comment at him, but soon enough the comment simply came as a breathless gasp. He felt Aurel's fangs again, this time piercing his skin, and it was so crazy, to hear both their heartbeats again, and the madness of great feelings coming down with dizziness from having his blood sucked. "Shit... Ah.. Aurel..." Nils body went rigid, toes curling almost instantly and chin tilting back to give Aurel space enough to suck his blood. From his lips came a tiny moan, flushed cheeks to make it company.

Gladly enough, Aurel pulled back, licking the bite marks, which only made Nils shift uncomfortably, biting back another moan, gulping like a cornered animal. Aurel was staring at him in a strange manner, but Nils had pride, to hell with it, so he kept his chin tilted up and the cold gaze, staring intently into Aurel's eyes. He had hazel, almost brown eyes, that had a strange tint of red right now, but it went along with his hair. Blond, but darker than his own, almost brown too. Nils hands were immobilized, or else he would have reached out and yanked Aurel by his hair, to simply play with it.

There was silence as the Romanian pulled back from him, and Nils watched it a bit dizzy as he melted into a shadow, only to show up back on the other side of the room, muttering some shit about how much he should get out and leave right now. "Are you honestly kicking me out now, Aurel? What is it, food is over?" The Norwegian hissed from the hammock, not even bothering to sit up. "I'm dizzy, idiot, you sucked my blood. Come back here with a blanket..." He muttered, lowering his voice and curling into a ball, a hand slowly reaching out to touch his neck. The spot was sensitive to the touch, swollen. Nils didn't find it amusing, to marked as that.

"Also... Aurel," Nils called for a third time, and the Romanian was probably even tired of hearing his name. "Does that bite means... Nevermind, you were just feeding from me." Of course it didn't mean any claiming, stupid Norwegian, you have just met the guy, this wasn't some random drama with vampires for teens. He growled, shutting his eyes close. He also refused to invite Aurel to lay down next to him, no matter how warm and nice that sounded. No, he wasn't that needy... He had pride.

Damn vampire.

[datcurl]

Aurel blinked. So Nils... wasn't leaving? Well, that's nice, despite the fact that the Norwegian had reacted in a bitchy manner, but it was still a lot better than what things could've been. For a second, he wanted to smile and thank him but that would look odd, so instead Aurel gave a little pout, "Yes... Princess," he smirked a little at the new nickname he gave the boy and took a moment to search for the blanket. There was one (not made of blood) from what used to be a bookshelf, which was of a dark blue hue. Aurel opened the blanket up and threw it over Nils, covering the other from head to toe.

"...Are you going to sleep in here?" he asked, pulling the blanket away from the Norwegian's face. Nils did say something about being dizzy, and maybe he was just too tired to return to his dorm. Would he get into trouble for sleeping out here? Well of course he would, if he were caught, but Aurel didn't know if anyone checked the dorms in the morning since he usually returned to his dorm for a nap by sunrise, "Is this the place where Sleeping Beauty will rest?" He wouldn't be so sure what to do if Nils really were to sleep now. He can't just stay in the room and watch him- too creepy. Just abandoning him would feel off too. And the Romanian was anything but sleepy at the moment, having drank twice.

"Hm... what about the bite?" Aurel asked, though he wasn't sure whether he wanted to hear the answer or not, "...If it's about any long-term side effect, there are none that I know of." And by long-term effects, he was only aware of his family and that was for about two years. They couldn't get themselves to just let him run around and bite people so they'd volunteered their own blood in rotations. Aurel didn't see any real changes from any of them, "C'mon, tell me..." He poked the other on the cheek just to bother him.

He picked up his hat from the floor and put it back in its usual place on Aurel's head, tilted to the right just enough that it looks like it might be defying the laws of gravity, "Need anything else, Princess Nils? A nightlight, stuffed animal, ...some company?" he teased. It'd be pretty funny if Nils actually had a nightlight or some stuffed animal when sleeping, though the latter would also be a bit cute, "Bedtime story? Lullaby?" Aurel chuckled. The Romanian couldn't sing for his life. Dance, sure, but singing was just a big no-no.

"...Look um, I won't be doing... that again. The biting," he said, glancing at the Norwegian then looking away, "I swear, okay? No more surprise bites." Aurel raised his hands like the way those criminals do in cop shows and grinned. He then stuffed his hands in his pockets and twirled in a circle. He wanted to talk, keep up a conversation, but Nils was sleepy, dizzy, and probably cranky too. So Aurel pulled out a chair for himself and looked over at the pile of books from the forbidden section. Eh, he'll start reading after Nils was asleep.

[jegernorge]

Nils growled, hissing at the teasing, pokes and pats. Quite frankly, he was tired, why couldn't Aurel just let it be and go away? He pulled the covers higher up, hiding his blush at the mention of a plushie. Okay, he used one to sleep, did Aurel need to know? Absolutely not. "Yes, I'll sleep in here, just leave me alone, oh, Prince Charming." He hissed, growling and rolling around, turning his back on the other. Maybe he was just cranky from the blood loss, but he still could feel his head spinning, and even if he wasn't so dizzy now, he was a bit hungry.

He turned around again, about to ask Aurel if he had any snack on his bag, maybe cookies under the hat, but he guessed there was nothing. Aurel was asking him what he wanted to know about the bite. Uh, time to make up some excuse... "It's nothing, I just... wanted to know about side-effects, that's it." He clicked his tongue, shrugging again and swatting Aurel's hand away from his cheek. Annoying.

He crossed his arms, under the blanket, shaking his head at everything the other offered, growling a bit in annoyance. Aurel would obviously never find out about his pink bunny-shaped plushie, and he just refused to ask for the other to lay down by his side and make him company. They had just met, he wasn't that in love, or needy. Hold on, he wasn't even in love to begin with. Well, but he did look cute with the hat.

But then, Aurel mentioned the biting. Did he have bring that up. Nils sat down, narrowing his eyes at him and hugging the blanket tight, trying to hold on tight to what little warmth he had left. "You must be kidding me. Aurel, you couldn't control yourself one time, do you think you can do it... From now on?" The Norwegian sighed, rubbing his temples. He didn't feel actually bad, being bitten, but he was sure he did not react like a normal human... Nils pushed the blankets aside, walking to where the Romanian was sitting down and cupped his face, tilting it up. "Just ask me next time you decide to bite me... I don't mind, but I don't like surprises." He sighed, brushing his thumbs over the other's cheeks before he let go of him.

"You won, let's talk for a bit more... But, listen, how are we going to sleep us both on that hammock?" It was tight, and implied heavy cuddling there, or at least, implied they'd be really close. And not that Nils wouldn't mind... Honestly, he had just met the guy, what was his problem. Still, the Norwegian sat on the table, close to the other so that his leg was touching Aurel's arm, looking down with a tiny smile, arms crossed. "Do you ever sleep, vampire?" Nils asked, lightly chuckling. He wouldn't be surprised in the answer was no.

[datcurl]

Alright, Nils was starting to look rather tired and annoyed by now and Aurel thought that maybe he should stop when the other sat up and even went out of the hammock to where Aurel was to cup his face, "I can control myself-!" He snapped but then looked away. Oh who was he kidding? That was such an obvious lie that his nose might as well grow like Pinocchio's, "...Okay, maybe not always, but um yeah. I'll ask." Aurel shrugged and sighed, disappointed in himself.

He blinked when the Norwegian mentioned sleep. Was Nils honestly allowing the two of them to sleep in a hammock, together? If anything, Aurel would've expected to be forced to sleep on the ground or on a row of desks but he wasn't going to say that. He scratched the back of his head, wondering how this could work without either of them falling off, "I... guess I could just lie down on the hammock and you can sort of sleep on top of me? Because you're probably lighter and I don't really mind." He should though. Sleeping with someone he'd just met? Well, not that it was in the naughty manner, but still, it should feel more awkward than it is.

"Pfft, of course I sleep, silly princess," Aurel laughed, gently nudging the other's leg, "Only difference is that my main snoozing is in the afternoon but I normally take a nap before sunrise. Might as well just sleep in for tonight." It was annoying, needing to sleep in the afternoon into the night. A lot of stuff happens in the afternoon, and those are also usually the hours when every else was active.

He stood up and went back to the hammock, this time laying down on it instead of just sitting, "It won't seem too weird now, would it?" Heh, since when did Aurel ask about whether something seemed weird or not? Since now, apparently. Might as well ask if his hat made his head look big or something like that.

It might be a bit difficult for Nils to get back up now, "I could just turn into a shadow so you could hop back in easily," the Romanian suggested. He wouldn't be able to talk for that time being, but it shouldn't take long and it's not like he was going to stay like that for the remainder of the night, "Here, let me just do that now," Aurel melted into a shadow, flat on the surface of the hammock. He stretched his head just enough to see Nils and whether or not the Norwegian will join him on the hammock.

[jegernorge]

Oh, so he would ask before biting him again, then? That was quite the progress. Nils smiled softly, shaking his head a bit at the Romanian's embarrassed face. Well, if they ever met again, at least there wouldn't be any surprises, since he was counting on Aurel to warn him actually. He wanted to trust the vampire, he really did, and it felt safe. "Good. I don't mind when you drink, but I honestly don't like this surprise... The bite marks, I can hide with an apricot, or even make up." And honestly, he was far too old to care about looking girlish with make up on his neck.

It was funny how it felt like they had become so close, in the short spam of a night. Maybe because he had given his blood to Aurel twice that night, and so, he was weak. It was strange, but Nils could see a bit of himself on Aurel, and this wasn't very healthy. They both depended on an extra source for living, warmth and blood. Even if Nils could live with his normal, cold body, it was a bother. He supposed Aurel could also live on synthetic blood if it existed, but he doubted it much. It would feel like a ration, like stealing warmness from a machine.

"Don't call me Princess, damn vampire." Nils hissed, frowning a bit as he stared down at Aurel, moving his leg a bit, until he touched the other's arm. Heat. Aurel's habits were those of a vampire, even if he didn't burn in the sun. Well, he wasn't dead like a normal vampire, so why would he? He was too warm for a dead thing. "Just go to sleep then, I can't say I'll stay awake for too long either.." He shrugged, smiling a bit. Truth to be told, Nils was pretty much sleeping on the table by now, but he wouldn't just fall asleep and ignore Aurel then. It wasn't fair.

Everything was perfect until Aurel actually went to lay down on the hammock, talking casually as if it wasn't even a big deal to begin with. Sure, now he was going to sleep with a vampire on a tiny hammock that was hard to climb on and impossible to escape from. He watched with a bored, expressionless face as Aurel hopped off his chair to lay down, instructing him to... what? Nils blinked, raising both eyebrows at the suggestion of him sleeping on top of... Just no. He coughed a bit, looking away and trying to ignore the whole situation. Maybe, if he looked away enough, he'd be back on his lonely room, with nothing but his bunny.

Not working.

Actually, when Nils looked back, it wasn't gone. It had gone worse, since now Aurel was staring at him from his lovely place on the hammock, just waiting for him to hop on. Right on top of him, yep, he'd do it. Sure. "So... we're actually going to sleep together? Uh, great." He muttered, jumping off the table and walking closer and closer to the hammock, until he was close enough that he could jump in, but he didn't. He paused, blinked slowly and looked down at the red, biting his lower lip. Well, not like there was much escaping now. He ran his hands down his hair, sighing, and then sat down.

Heck, sit down and then make himself comfortable on the hammock was hard, but soon enough he managed to sit, looking down at Aurel's face, biting his lips as he slowly moved his body down, and with a bit of struggling, until he was comfortably laying down and awkwardly facing Aurel, or so, his face. "There... I'm here." Nils muttered, voice without a hint of emotion, even if his cheeks were quite red by now. He know he'd regret it in a second or two but... Ah, so, they were two loner kids sleeping together in the most innocent fashion, wasn't it great? The Norwegian slowly closed his eyes, smiling to himself.

At least, he could pretend to be asleep and his embarrassment. After all, once Aurel's body became more than a shadow, there surely would be hands on improper places then. Shit, what kind of mess had he just gotten himself into... Yes, Nils, fall in love with a vampire, see what happens.

[datcurl]

It would be quite an understatement to say that watching Nils come up on the hammock was a little awkward. Not that Aurel could actually say anything during that time period, which just made things seem worse. He didn’t feel any of the Norwegian’s movements, besides the sense of some parts moving up and down with the hammock’s surface. But finally Nils had laid down and muttered that he was done. Aurel grinned a bit to himself before slowly returning to his normal form. Hm, the other actually felt a bit lighter than he expected, just enough that it actually felt rather comfortable. Then again, Aurel had always been a bit of a weird boy, one who had thought that having someone sit on his legs while on the couch felt almost massaging.

"…And here I am," He smiled and aww Nils’ cheeks were bright red again at it was so cu- wait what was he thinking about. God, things just seem to be happening so quickly, it doesn’t even feel like they’ve never met before. He stretched his arm just enough to grab the blanket and cover the two of them adequately well, "Good enough, princess?" he asked even though the other had told Aurel not to call him ‘Princess.’ The name fits somehow, in Aurel’s mind. It fit rather well, actually, though there’s probably something better to call the Norwegian which he just hadn’t thought of yet. It’ll come to his mind soon enough.

He felt like hugging the Norwegian, to embrace the boy in his arms and pull in closer. Aurel blushed at the thought, but he was probably going to end up embracing the other at some point, with his odd sleep habits. A particular one being that he just so happens to hug anything near him while sleeping. Aurel didn’t even know that was different from everyone else until a couple days into his first year here at Asher when his roommates asked if his pillow was some kind of stuffed animal to him with the way he slept with it. And right now the only pillow around is maybe his chest for Nils to sleep on. Yeah, the Romanian was starting to regret this decision now, like the way he tended to do with most decisions.

Aurel took off his hat and threw it on a desk, landing perfectly in the middle. Yes! Ten points for him! "…So, good night, then. I guess," he said, "And don’t roll around all over the place or anything. Don’t wanna fall out now, do we?" Not that Nils seemed to be the type that rolls around but he didn’t seem like a sleep-hugger himself… Or so he hopes not.

For a moment he just laid there, waiting and staring up at the ceiling, taking a glance back at the other every once in a while. The question of whether the other was asleep yet kept repeating in his head and he wasn’t sure if he should ask out loud or if that would wake the other up. He waited a bit more before whispering softly, "Are you asleep yet?" Slowly, he moved one arm over the Norwegian and then the other so that Aurel was now hugging him lightly. It felt both comfortable and awkward at the same time, but more the former than the latter.

The other still seemed a bit warm, but it was evident that he was already losing some of that heat that had been stolen from him. Aurel hugged a tad bit tighter in an attempt to help warm Nils up. He himself was only really warm right now since he’d just recently drank. If too much time passed, he would feel almost as cold as a corpse. What an odd cycle this could make- Aurel drinking off Nils and then Nils taking some of the heat right off of him. It could work, though, so long as he didn’t drink so much that the Norwegian would get sick.

Aurel gave a small sigh and closed his eyes. He wasn’t sleepy just yet, but might as well try to get some shut-eye. He rolled his head to the side, trying to find a more comfortable position with his limited mobility. And he did somehow manage to do that without brushing his arms against the Norwegian’s too much. Now he wanted to cuddle- oh wow, Aurel, he’s not your goddamn teddy bear! …No matter how much you may want that to be so…

[jegernorge]

Nils hissed sharply once he felt Aurel's body under his, as the boy went from just a single shadow to an actual person. He barely blinked, but his heart skipped a beat once he noticed how close they were. They didn't feel like folks who had just me. They looked like... even closer than close friends, not brother, actually something more... Nils sighed, gulping softly and frowning, looking down at Aurel and keeping a bored face to hide his embarrassment. What was he even doing, giving himself like that? He had obviously lost his mind somewhere in between the first and the second bite.

"Don't call me princess, for the last time. And no, I don't move around much, so no need to worry... I've slept in much tighter places." Nils sighed, closing his eyes and bringing his legs up. He felt his knees and calves brush against Aurel's side, but he supposed this would be okay, this would set a small, but enough of a barrier between them. After all, Nils had the tendency to sleep clinging to his bunny, and his bunny wasn't Aurel. Even if Aurel was warm and inviting, he had standards. He had morals. "Hm, night..."

The Romanian talked for a bit more, his voice low and distant in Nils mind until it became a buzzing and then nothing. Quickly, the Norwegian fell asleep, breathing evenly and snoring lightly against the Hammock's threads, arms crossed so as to keep himself warm, even under the blanket. He was in heavy slumber when he parted his lips, letting out a strangled, annoyed sound, but still, Nils body moved closer to Aurel's, in the clumsy way sleepy people move, and sunk his head into the other's chest.

To the sleeping Norwegian, there was just a really inviting source of heat close to him, nothing more than heat, free, warm and giving. He let out a little moan, almost a sigh, and he nuzzled the other in his sleep, arm wrapped around Aurel's neck tight, face resting on Aurel's chest. If Nils was awake, he'd be hearing Aurel's heart beating, if vampire had beating hearts, but he wasn't. His body was moving as the heat just came from his usual bunny, and soon enough, Nils was clinging tight to the other.

Well, who would have guessed he was so clingy in his sleep? Nils himself wasn't aware of this, but if Aurel planned to leave in the morning, he'd have a lot of working untangling himself away from Nils. The Norwegian slept peacefully the whole night, in fact, it was sleep like he hadn't have in ages.... Not that he would thank Aurel by the morning. Nils was too caught up in his dreams and his new teddy bear to be even thinking about such trivial matters. He'd deal with every muuuch later, by morning.

And so he slept on, heavy slumber and slightly parted lips.

[datcurl]

It took a long while for Aurel to fall asleep, unlike Nils, who seemed to have fallen asleep almost immediately. He just kind of kept still as the other nuzzled his chest and clung onto his neck tightly. Hm, two clingers sleeping together in a hammock. Wouldn't that be interesting to watch? Too bad Aurel can't see himself when sleeping when he wanted to, and he didn't keep any surveillance cameras here either. He clung back onto the Norwegian and ran his hand down the other's hair. Oh look, the barrette was still there. Carefully, Aurel detached it from Nils' hair and managed to toss it right next to where the hat was on the table.

Things still felt a bit awkward for a while, but Aurel soon got used to it, and even liked being on the hammock with Nils. He had such a serene face when sleeping, the Romanian could just stare at it all night... but he shouldn't, and he didn't for sleep eventually took over and Aurel slept calmly under the Norwegian, clinging tightly onto the other like a child with his favorite stuffed animal.

The smallest rays of light coming from the sunrise woke Aurel up. He opened his eyes lazily and yawned as he stretched out his arms which had been hugging Nils closely for the past couple of hours. Nils. The boy was still fast asleep, clinging onto him and head buried in his chest. Aurel smiled and pet the blond, "Bună dimineața, Nils..." he whispered, moving the bangs away from the sleeping face. Aurel looked out the window and stared at the sunrise for a moment or two. Hm, what time was it? Sheesh, he never seemed to remember to bring a clock or watch with him to this room. Might as well just make a sundial here... except that he comes to this room more often in the night. But either way, he should be getting out of here and prepare for school before any of his roommates realize their resident vampire is missing.

He looked back at the sleeping boy. Something in the back of his head nagged him to stay for a little longer, at least until the other woke up, but Aurel decided to ignore that voice since if he got into trouble for being missing, then Nils would certainly get caught too. The Romanian melted into a shadow once more, very slowly so that it wouldn't stir the other awake. As a shadow, he crawled through the room and under the slit of the door, reappearing on the other side.

There he took one last good look at the boy, "Farewell, Princess," he said to himself, smiling a little, "Until we meet again." He wasn't exactly sure if he would ever meet Nils again, but it would be awful if he didn't. After getting so close in one meeting... Aurel's cheeks reddened at the thought of all the things which had happened that night. People... Just didn't get that close to each other so quickly. Not unless... No. There's no such thing as love at first sight.

....Doesn't rule out love at first meeting however.

Aurel blushed more and started to walk down the hall, which soon became running. The thought was just, augh no. It occupied him so much that the Romanian had completely forgotten about his hat, which was still on that table, right next to the cross barrette. Such trivial matters don't occupy a person's mind when they're thinking about more important things.

(I.....guess that's the end? Yeah, last post in this thread.)
