Celest managed to find a medium-sized crate on sit on and she raised one leg for her arm to lean on. She looked outside through the window and sighed.
"Fate did not let you die that day, Jhin, because there's still something in store for you. Whatever it may be, you're given a chance to live. Things may have turned bad after that... but it shouldn't let you be stuck in your past. You're here right now, and that's enough reason for you to give yourself a chance to live out your life, make it better. Things may look bad, but it doesn't mean it will stay that way forever. Life... is too short to let it slip through your fingers..."
Who was she to talk about life? She had forever, but she barely felt alive at all; she was nowhere near alive. Celest felt jealous of Jhin's mortality, but she shook it away. What happened is done, she has to move on.

Jhin stood up, still for a moment. Thinking. He then glanced to Celest, thinking of her words.. But what would a vampire know of mortality.. and how much it seems to hurt? Though he figured.. spending an eternity alone, feeding off the life force of humans; to ensure your survival was much worse than he ever felt. Jhin moved swiftly and walked over to her with quick, long strides. He hesitated a moment, then placed a cool; yet warn in comparison, hand upon her cheek, rasing her face to look at his, his eyes sparkling like the night stars. They didnt have that ever molten quality, but beautiful none the less.
"Celest.." His words slipped from his lips before he could stop them. His eyes looked directly into hers, as if they could see within.. He leaned closer, as if he were to kiss her, but his lips slipped past her cheek, to her ear.
"I can see your pain.." He whispered softly, touching his hand to where her heart would be. He then straightened up, and slipped his hand from her cheek. It had just hit him that he had left his guitar ouside. And he had to run out and get it quick. He gave her one last glance before running out into the night, to retreive his instrument. But on his way, he slipped and slammed his forehead against a rock, slicing open the skin, welcoming the warm crimson liquid to escape.

Celest breathes out as she finished talking. She then heard Jhin's footsteps come nearer and his warm hand on her cheek. He raised her head until she was looking into those beautiful emerald pools of his. The sudden gesture surprised her, and if vampires could only blush like mortals, she would be red all over.
Jhin was dangerously close, his scent was overwhelming her senses. She held back her thirst as she shuddered when she heard his voice in her ear, saying, "I can see your pain..."
Her heartbeat raced as he placed his hand briefly over it. Just then, he ran off to the door, then locked gazes with him before he went out into the rain. When he was out of sight, she placed a hand over her cheek where Jhin touched her. This is really bad... Really bad...
Celest suddenly shot up when she smelled the strong scent of blood, his blood. Jhin? Did he get hurt? Blood... She cursed under her breath.

Jhin cursed and stood in the rain, he wouldnt dare go back like this bleeding. It was probably hard enough for her to resist, he had caught a hint of red within her mismatched iris'. He sat once again upon the cliff, over looking the city as a stream of blood ran down his face, soaking with the water into his sleeveless shirt. Smooth move Jhin, Smooth move. He knew he was just going to complicate something for her, after all, she wasnt a human. He had to keep telling himself that, she.. wasnt mortal. Jhin sat in the pouring rain and tipped his head back, letting the droplets wash over his face, washing away the blood, and the reminants of his tears. This was where he belonged. Alone.
Alone...

Celest stood up from where she sat and placed a hand on the door, slightly opening it. She cannot go out, for the rain will surely sting on her skin. She saw Jhin sitting in the rain, his head tilted back. She could still smell his blood, and see the cut on his forehead. What the heck is he doing under the rain? Is he nuts?
Her thirst was almost overwhelming but she swallowed hard, controlling it with all the power she can muster. She then shouted out in the rain, "Jhin! Come inside, are you crazy? If you're not coming in..."
She swallowed hard. "...I'll have to come out and get you..."

Jhin sighed, feeling the ice cold rain chill him to the bone. Well, what doesnt kill you, makes you stronger, was always what his parents said. He supposed it was true. Jhin slipped off his soaked shirt and wringed it out a little, colding the wet cloth to his forehead, in attempt to stop the bleeding. He licked his lips slightly, tasting his own blood. Coppery, with a little bit of a saline flavor. How odd. Jhin could barely hear through the rain, but he sighed again when her heard her voice call him, why was she so worried..? He tossed his ruined shirt aside after he had ripped a stip of cloth from it, wrapping it about his forehead tightly. He then wandered slowly back towards the small building, completely drenched. Once he got it, she shut the door and sat in a shadowy corner, an arm resting on a raised knee as he hung his head, his guitar rested by his side. He was silent. But all he could think of saying was,
Im sorry...

As Jhin strode inside the building again, the combination of the smell of the rain, earth and his scent invaded Celest's nose as he walked past her and she stiffened. No, must resist...
She then turned her head towards him. He was now sitting in one corner, his forehead wrapped up in the strip of cloth he ripped from his shirt and his head hung low. She frowned and cautiously went to his side and knelt by his side. Mustering all the control she had, she reached out a cold, trembling hand and ran it through his crimson hair, saying, "Jhin... You don't need to feel alone..."
Celest then placed her hand on his silken cheek and continued, "...I'll be here..."

Jhin was surprised, and he looked up at her with his deep, unreadable eyes. His hand reached up, and grabbed hers gently, pulling it away from his face. He hesitated a moment, but placed each soft cool finger to his supple lips, kissing each finger tip. He then reached up, and ran one of his fingers over her fangs, as if his eyes were to speak, he pricked his finger, and allowed her a taste, His eyes were strong, and unwavering, seeming to call out to her.
I trust you..

When Celest tasted Jhin's blood on her lips, it was as if she would never, ever look for another human to feed on, for his blood was the sweetest she had ever tasted in her whole life as a vampire. It was now her drug, her ambrosia.
But then she gently removed his hand from her, turning her head away. I cannot do this... Not to you... Now you know...
Celest closed her eyes tightly and sat back on the floor. She covered her face with a hand and said, in a soft voice, "Jhin... I..." Her voice then broke as she turned her head away.

Jhin just looked at her, his eyes soft and kind as the blood ran down his fingers. His voice, was quiet, soothing.
"I trust you Celest. If you take away my loneliness.." He looked down at her, his voice softening even more. He wasnt afraid of her, nor what she was, nor what she did.
"I'll take away your hunger, and your pain..." His last words were nothing but a mere whisper. Jhin was basically giving himself to her, and he had absolutely no regrets. In fact, he wanted it.

Celest looked into Jhin's eyes and looked for any sign of hesitation in them. She found none, and it almost scared her. He was offering himself to her, really tempting but she herself was the one hesitating. Why?
"Is this really what you want? Do you... know what you're getting into, Jhin?"
She looked at him, waiting for his answer, but then turned her head away, since she could feel she could get lost in those beautiful eyes of his.

Jhin smiled a little and brushed his fingers against her cheek, turning her head to look at him. His eyes were bright, strong and unwavering.
"What have I got to loose? I'm alive for some reason.. and I think this may be why, Celest." He stated softly, trying to find; no, make a purpose for himself. To make a path that he could walk down, even if it led to death. He needed something.. Anything. Maybe he was still here.. for her.

Thoughts ran through Celest's mind as she looked at him. She placed both her hands on Jhin's cheek and leaned forward slightly, whispering in a velvety voice through his lips, "I hope you know this will be craziest thing you're getting yourself into..."
She draws back and looks at him, her eyes turning into a red crimson color and her fangs slightly lengthening.

Jhin tilted his head slightly, bearing his strong neck. He smiled slightly, but he wasnt afraid, and he slipped a han around to her back, placing it between her shoulder blades.
"I know..." He almost grinned. Perhaps he had found his purpose, here with this vampire woman. Surely it couldnt be that bad, He waited, expecting a tinge of pain, he waited for her to bite him. His main artery was fully exposed to her. He trusted her. Before he could stop himself, her name slipped from his lips as he closed his eyes.
"Celest..."

Celest leans in slightly and runs her cold hands on his bare chest. He was really a sight to behold, such a beauty. She will make this quick, so as to not hurt him much, just like what she does to her past victims.
Fangs sink in deep into the artery and blood flowed freely into Celest's mouth, flooding her senses with an almost drunken euphoria. When his heart started to quicken its pace, she stopped, knowing that she has taken enough. Not a drop of the precious red liquid was spilled as she slowly licked the puncture wounds on Jhin's neck. She felt almost warm now, thanks to his blood.
She planted butterfly kisses along his neck and jawline and whispered in his ear, softly like silk against skin, stressing on his name, "Thank you, Jhin..."
