I smiled sitting in the little conservatory off the kitchen on what I believe is my sixth glass of blood since sitting own, Ava was sitting with me with her own glass as we looked out to the garden watching Oliver and thomas as they worked on a new garden bed that would bring a little life to this view.

"Haven't seen much of you since the wedding" she laughs

"No, mostly been tried."

"I remember what Oliver was like, all he wanted to do was sleep"

"Exactly, that's all I've been doing. I feel a little bad for thomas I keep biting him all the time"

"You will do it's all part of the change" she explained "It'll mellow out soon enough"

"I'm starting to not sleep as much and my sense of smell is crazy"

"You get used to it" she laughed "You are drinking an awful lot though," she said as I finished my next drink

"You think so?"

"Yeah, like a lot." she said "I really don't wanna go there but... are you and him, you know?"

"What?"

"Being... intimate?"

"We are married ava."

"I know it's just... gross to think about my brother- anyway would you say often?"

"How often's often?"

"Like within the last week?"

"Yeah"

"The last three days?"

"Yes."

"Last twenty-four hours?"

"Uhh... No. I think. just about."

"Do you think maybe you drinking so much and biting so much because you might be... you know?"

"I might be what?"

"Well... let's just say you do seem to be drinking enough for two."

"I- I Oh no."
