Nico leaned back against Anubis, his back warm were it connected with the vampire's chest. He didn't know why, but the vampire was ridiculously warm, unlike other vampires (apparently). Nico had no knowledge of why that was, but Anubis had told him that it was a side-effect of the demigod's blood.

"It's the godly part of you that does that," he could remember Anubis saying after the first time he'd asked.

He turned around and watched his boyfriend's slumbering form. He leaned forward and stroked the dark circles under Anubis' eyes. According to him, he could only really sleep in Nico's presence, he said it was his blood that made him sleep.

The son of Hades reached up to feel the tender spot on his shoulder where the other had previously bit him. He thought back to when he first met the vampire, the memory still vivid in his mind.

It had been a cold autumn night, and Nico had just paid his mother's grave a visit. He had placed a coronary of roses on the grass near her tombstone and felt a presence when he rose.

Pretending like nothing was out of the ordinary, he gripped his Stygian Iron sword and spoke in a low voice, "Whoever you are, you should not try to sneak up on a child of Hades, unless you want to die a painful death."

Getting no answer, he turned around and pointed his sword outwards.

Nico furrowed his brows at the huge bat that sat a few meters away.

"A bat?" he mused. It blinked owlishly at him.

Nico shook his head, fastening his sword again, "You're starting to imagine things, Nico. You should spend some time with the living again."

He shoved his hands in his pockets and stared at the bat. It remained quiet but cocked its head.

Nico raised an eyebrow, "What the hell? What kind of bat are you?"

"The magic kind," the bat suddenly said.

The son of Hades jerked. His hand flew to his sword again as he watched the bat transform into a tall guy. He looked like a teenager, but Nico got the feeling he was much older, for some reason.

"Whoa," Nico said, dumbly.

"The name's Anubis," the guy said, reaching a hand out. "I'm a vampire."

Nico smiled at the memory. He snuggled closer to Anubis and felt his arms tighten around himself.

"You awake, Sleeping Beauty?" Nico teased, getting a chuckle in return.

"You don't have to tell me I'm beautiful every other second."

Nico scoffed, "You wish."

Anubis yawned and the demigod could see his sharp canines.

"How come you sleep so much with me, anyway?" Nico wondered. He reached his hand up to poke at the vampire's cheeks, noting how hollow they looked.

"I've already told you that it's because of your blood," Anubis huffed. "Ever since you let me drink your blood that time when I was near death, I've been sleeping at times."

"But why, though?"

The vampire pursed his lips in thought, "I guess your blood makes me more human."
