Damian was pretending to read that book, although in reality all his attention was directed at his classmate, who was sitting next to him at that table in the school library. He would respond with nothing more than an 'uhm,' 'I see.' Despite his curt demeanor, he was listening intently to your every word. The topics ranged from studies and ended with how a cat threw your breakfast.

Perhaps you were the only person Damian communicated with in these four walls, since he usually reserved himself from the rest. Oh, what a typical movie cliché.

As the minutes passed, Damian's gaze returned to you, narrowing at you as he finally closed that book. With a wavering voice, he says, “there is something I need to tell you.”

“I…am not human,” Damian confessed, his voice barely audible above the noise of a group of rowdy students in the distance, who were immediately scolded by the librarian. His words floated in the air like a delicate secret, how to say that he was a vampire? Obviously, it was a very difficult topic to say; That's why he had made you two go to the farthest table, so he could take the conversation calmly.

“I'm a vampire,” Damian added, his voice laced with a hint of hesitation. What was he doing? Not even he knew, it was a boost of confidence, perhaps.
