"Its freezing in here." Ashton mumbled with his eyes closed. He shoved his palms under his armpits and shivered. It was the middle of the night and it was storming outside.

Luke heard him mumbeling but he ignored him because he figured he was just talking in his sleep so he stayed upstairs.

That was until Ashton called him.

"Luke."

He closed his eyes for a second and then walked downstairs to the living room.

"What?"

"Can I get a sweater or something?"

"I don't think I have one." Luke replied, he was a vampire and he didn't feel the cold so he didn't bother getting any warm clothes.

"Its really cold in here."

"I didn't sign up for this."

"I didn't sign up to stay alive." Ashton shot back.

"You should thank me. This house is the safest place you could find."

"I don't want to stay alive. There's nothing to thank you for." Ashton pulled himself to sit. He was miserable. Really is misrable, he couldn't bare the fact that his parents are dead, that Liam betreyed him, that there are no more humans. He just wanted to end all of the suffer that refused to leave him alone.

"You're a brat, you know that?"

"And you're selfish." Ashton shrugged.

"Just.. come with me." Luke told him and then led him upstairs.

He opened a door and walked inside, pulling another cloth from the closet and giving Ashton another long T shirt to put on.

"Sleep here, its warmer then the living room." Luke switched on the light when he realized that unlike him, Ashton couldn't see anything in the dark. Ashton's eyes widened to the sight of the room, a middled sized bed in the middle of the room and a huge space to move around.

The room he used to share with Liam was barely half of this one.

"Anything else?" Luke glared at him.

Ashton pulled on the shirt and then shoke his head. He sat on the edge of the bed and felt the soft mattress.

"Who's room is this?"

"No one's."

"So why do you have it? I thought you live alone."

"It came with the house." Luke walked out of the room and Ashton got under the covers. He felt warmer already and he drifted back to sleep fast.

When its been more then an hour and Luke was positive Ashton was sleeping deeply, he left the house and went to see Rey again.

It didn't take him long to reach there and he came more impatient then ever, the whole thing with Ashton annoyed him. It wasn't Ashton in practically, it was the mess around it. The fact he had to stay close to the human and watch over him only because he couldn't stopped craving his blood.

"I don't have that kind of pills." Rey explained when Luke came with the same words.

"Can't you make them?"

"I have no idea what was in them. I already told you-"

"I can't help him control his power, its not my fucking job." Luke spat.

He was short and impatient when it came to things he needed to be done.

"Don't take it out on me. You decided to keep him alive."

"There's a way to keep feeding from his blood without keeping him alive?"

"You can pull all the blood from his body, but eventually it will be over."

"What's so different about his blood?"

"There's a reason why immortals don't exist anymore."

"You want to tell me vampires killed all of them?"

"Yes."

"That doesn't make any sense."

"Why not? Just like you can't stop feeding from the human, othere's couldn't too."

Luke didn't say anything and Rey stood up. He took two beers and handed one to Luke.

"If he survived, that means there's others." Rey sipped from his beer.

"Other immortals?"

"Yes, someone needed to give birth to him."

"So they're staying low."

"Probably. But I'm pretty sure Ashton didn't knew he was an immortal."

"He didn't."
