Steve sneaks into your room late at night. There was a battle between the vampires and vampaneze. You were a vampire. But you were Steve's friend, too, despite that.

The only problem is, that battle was... let's just say it had a few casualties, and... yeah. Crepsley got staked.

You weren't in your room, he noticed. He immediately knew where you were, though. He knew you. What he didn't know... is if you'd hate him. He didn't kill Crepsley... actually, he told them to leave him alive- at least for now. But one of the people on his side did. Steve alert knew how much that would traumatize you.

Sure enough, he goes into Crepsley's old room. He finds you in there, laying in the old bed-coffin thing Crepsley used to sleep in. He thought you were asleep at first, until he heard the soft sound of crying from the coffin. You were curled up facing away from the door, and you must not have noticed him come in. Not knowing how to get your attention, he purposely opened and closed the window, because that was how he normally came in. Your head snapped up and you finally saw him.

"...Hey there," he said, slightly awkward. Very concerned.
