Chapter 13: Dinner [2]

I blinked once then twice, trying to figure out if he was being serious or trying to mess with me. The expression on his face was the same: serious and blank.
When I attempted to speak, all that came out was a splutter as a feeling of appalment consumed every inch of me.
"Drink my blood?" I finally screeched out and Damon’s expression still remained the same, but his eyes were watching me closely.
"I dont... I don’t understand what you mean. Are you being serious, or..." I trailed off, waiting for Damon to respond.
He finally let out an exasperated sigh as he spoke. "It was just a simple question, are you down or not?" He demanded and I felt myself start to get angry.
First, he shuts me down by making me feel incompetent and irrelevant by claiming he wasn’t curious about anything about me, and then next he was asking me an extremely weird question.
"I was confused because you were being weird!" I pointed out. "Why would you even ask me that question? As a joke or what? And why would you even think about that?" I trailed off for a moment.
"That’s weird, isn’t it? Only monsters drink blood, no?" I continued and this time, something crossed his eyes right before he held a hand up to me.
"Alright, that’s enough."
I pursed my lips as silence began to stretch out between us, feeling extremely awkward and also miffed. I didn’t know what to say right now and so I remained silent, my lips in a thin line.
