~Byun Baekhyun~

Setting the cup of coffee down on the table Baekhyun rushed to his chair across from the male and sat down.

"I dont have any blood to give you and I'm not comfortable yet to offer myself-"

"Please" Chanyeol interrupted his eyes clamping shut "I told you that I'm not interested in your blood Baek, I'm fine with coffee"

"I'm sorry" the smaller whispered, his lips curling around the rim of the cup to sip his hot beverage, his eyes stayed glue to the man across from him.

"I didn't want you to find out this way.." Chanyeol admitted looking down at the table in despair. His fingers drawing circles on the wood. "I was planning on telling you eventually but when we had developed a closer bond"

"Why, don't you trust me enough to know it now?" Baekhyun wondered putting his mug back down.

"No, not at all" Chanyeol shook his head "I trust you for everything Baekhyun, it's just i have grown a sort of attraction to you and now after you having found out that I am what I am I fear that you see me in a different way now"

"Then change my mind" Baekhyun smiled leaning forward onto the table. His heart rate increasing at his boldness. This was definitely the most craziest thing he has done, after agreeing to invite a vampire inside his home.

"I'm sure you have questions" Chanyeol began taking now as the chance to hold eye contact with the smaller. "I'll answer them all"

"I know you eat Garlic because I've seen Lay eat it all the time"

"Yes" Chanyeol admitted with a nod.

"And somehow sunlight doesn't affect you?"

"We have these necklaces, bracelets, rings, ear rings and things we can drink that protect us"

"What about crucifixes?"

"Decorative"

"Holy water?"

"Applyable"

"Mirrors? And can't pass running water?"

"Myth"

"I know you can eat regular food-"

"Our body functions the exact same way yours does. We have a heart it beats, our skin isn't cold to the touch. We still get wounded but we heal straight after if our blood intake is good"

"So you've killed humans before?"

"Jeez no" Chanyeol gagged "I grew up on bloodbags and animal blood never once came in contact with a human"

"But now that you are here doesn't the hunger effect you?"

"It does" Chanyeol admitted "But I've learned to keep my hunger at bay, i dont enjoy hurting people at all"

"Animal blood?"

"It's slightly more bitter than human, it's healthier and depending on what type of animal you take its stronger than human"

"What can kill you?"

Chanyeol took awhile to respond but Baekhyun knew that once he had found out about his teacher and Chanyeol's life, he would need to protect himself from others.

"Anything made of wood in the heart. Sunlight, taking out my heart or head. Anything else would still kill us but we would heal"

Baekhyun nodded allowing his head to take in the information. Everything that he had thought he knew wasn't in fact true. The vampire legend on Google had brought him fiction while Chanyeol opened up reality. No wonder the vampires have been living naturally in the world today, because people didn't have the right information against them.

"Okay" Baekhyun announced after a few minutes silence. "I'm finished with my questions for now"

Chanyeol breathed a sigh of relief. "Alright, if you have any more I'll answer them"

"Wait!" Baekhyun shrieked getting up from the table forcing Chanyeol to freeze in his actions. "I have one"

Chanyeol slowly sank back into the seat. His eyes stayed glue to Baekhyun's. He could tell the smaller was nervous but was fighting all of his instincts.

"What does this mean?"

Baekhyun held up his arm where their journey began. Chanyeol's breath hitched and Baekhyun's eyebrows raised.

"That's probably the one thing that I don't think I can tell you right now"

Baekhyun huffed and crossed his arms glaring down at the vampire. Chanyeol's throat felt dry and his hands began sweating under the stare. Slowly but surely Chanyeol stood up.

Baekhyun stiffened as the giant started walking towards him. The pain from his palm hurting as he pressed it close to his chest.

"Baekhyun" Chanyeol breathed before sniffling the air. Baekhyun took his hand away from his chest and inspected it. A small part of his wound had reopened and blood was starting to pool onto his bandage.

Gasping at the sight Baekhyun turned to look up at Chanyeol. The latter was still where he had seen him, but now he was his eyes were going red and the veins were coming up.

Chanyeol caught against the hunger and turned around trying to catch his breath. Baekhyun's eyes widened at the gesture.

"You need to treat it"

Baekhyun's mind flashed back to the time that he had cut his finger on the wall outside Lays apartment. He fumbled with the wrapping and tied it around the wound. When he looked up Chanyeol still wasn't facing him.

"Chanyeol..?"

Speaking closer Baekhyun took a breath. He wanted to see him. He needed to see him.

"Baek.." Chanyeol sighed his head dripping between his shoulders.

Between those two minutes, they had a silent conversation. Chanyeol knew by hearing his name that Baekhyun wanted to see him and Baekhyun knew that Chanyeol was hesitant.

"Please" he whispered finally finding the courage to place his hand onto the males shoulder.

Pulling him around Baekhyun was able to see the vampire within Park Chanyeol. His eyes were red and the veins were pumping under his eyes. Baekhyun could just make out the sight of the two fangs behind the latter's puffy lips.

Taking a breath he rose on his tiptoes and gently placed his hands onto Chanyeols cheeks. "I know you won't hurt me" He began running his thumbs over the veins. "And I won't hurt you"

Chanyeol took a deep breath and Baekhyun watched as the veins slowly faded and the redness in the eyes disappear. Grinning up at the taller Baekhyun couldn't stop himself from pulling him closer and pressing a kiss against his lips.

"I'm not going to hold anything back from you anymore" Chanyeol whispered after their heartfelt moment. "You just have to trust me"

Baekhyun's eyes found his and through the spaces between them he could see that Chanyeol meant it. After all he had made sure he had made it to school safely earlier, when there could have been danger that he wasn't aware of.

"I do" Baekhyun nodded holding onto him tighter "I trust you, you just need to understand that I'm scared"

"I do" Chanyeol smiled however he couldnt stop from wrapping his arms around the smallers waist slowly. "I understand that this is alot to take in but I won't let anyone hurt you Baek.. You mean alot to me"

"Chanyeol we only just met.. how can you say such things?"

"Baekhyun.. you're my mate"
