"So you know Beckett?" Ryan asked a single eyebrow raised as he questioned how the other knew the leader of the vampire clan, though he knew nothing of the vampire's existence itself.

Which, despite his curiosity, he said nothing about it as he waited for a response.

A response, that he got soon after.

A response of, "Yeah, he-he's my be-best friend's boyfriend."

Through heavy pants that seemed to be from the agonizing pain as he continued to try to make out full sentences.

Though Ryan felt bad, sure, of course, he did.

But he knew it was only a matter of time that the pain will end and he will no longer feel it.

But by then, he will no longer be human and he won't be the same.

His whole life turned upside down and ruined just because of, apparently, his best friend's boyfriend.

Which was pretty surprising, Ryan wasn't going to lie.

It was like, oh wow, who knew the leader of Chicago's biggest vampire clan had a boy toy?

"Oh, I see, so, do you know what William did to you?" The younger of the two questioned, and upon seeing the confused look in the eldest's eye, he realized he probably didn't. "Or do you just think you're slowly dying and my friends and I are being dicks and not helping you? Like taking you to a hospital or something"

"That-" the black-haired male breathed out, "the second one"

"Oh, wow, okay, I really wasn't expecting that" Ryan mumbled, then looked over at the basement door before turning back to the vampire on the floor, "I'll be right back, okay? Just gotta talk to my friends about something and uh, stay here? Never mind you can't go anywhere" he finished and with that being the last thing said, he left to talk to the rest of his friends while Pete waited.
