He was helpful and generous, making sure she got the much needed rest she so badly needed. And she didn't mind him going onto his iPad, as she fell asleep, a source of warmth by his side. The fact he stayed with her as she slept was a source of comfort for her.
She'd be surprised though after when she dressed and was preparing to go that he wanted to talk. He wasn't talkative, was fine with it even- and the playfulness in bed and out of it made her more relaxed with the vampire then not.
"What's on your mind?" She was smoothing her shirt, ready to go. She didn't feel kicked out. She felt better falling asleep in her own bed, and after their earlier activity, she needed a shower.
Armand generally looked up from his iPad to acknowledge her departure. Not everyone got that sort of display of advanced social interaction!
"As you said before, it is sensible for you to stop offering me your blood." It had been the basic understanding established, anyway. "As I said, that does not mean you would be unwelcome if you wish to come to my door."
He could promise basically the same service, complete with not having to worry that it placed some sort of burden on him - even if it would take longer than just drinking her blood.
...He was still annoyed that someone had suggested there could be any problem with the sexual element of their... relationship.
It was an advanced social interaction! It was acknowledgment!
"I think we need to have a break from blood drinking st least."
She came over to gently touch his cheek, and draw away.
"But thank you Armand. I'll remember that." And she'd be by soon, unless something happened. Which...would likely happen as people figured out what was going on.
