Chapter 28: Longtime Fan
Caius and Kaya dressed in silence, taking their time, sneaking glances at each other and smiling whenever their eyes happened to cross.
When they were done, the bed of vines flaked away into Mana, and the door was unsealed. Caius grabbed the handle and made to pull it when Kaya’s mind set off into a storm of thoughts. She had so many questions. Most of them were about Vampires and what it meant that Caius was one and others were about them;
What were they now?
Was this going to be a regular thing? She hoped so.
She was about to open her mouth to ask at least one of her questions when the Caius opened the classroom door and on the other side, waiting for them with both her hands folded beneath the eye-catching rise of her well-developed breasts, was Eloise Nightingale.
Eloise was frowning and her feet tapped against the ground so impatiently that Caius almost thought she had been standing there the whole time.
"You missed Break!" Eloise said sharply.
"Oh, um, sorry," Kaya said and glanced at Caius as she added, "I guess we lost track of time."
Eloise’s frown relented a bit and her expression became one of suspicion,
"What were you two doing in there anyway?"
"Umm—Errr—" Kaya tried to think of something, but her mind was drawing a blank, so she looked over at Caius again, her eyes imploring him to cut in with a good lie.
