It had not been difficult to deduce that Rose was avoiding him. Keiavan didn’t know why. He thought they had cleared up the social media misunderstanding and he’d even offered to help her with her struggles in French. He thought about confronting her, but he didn’t. He watched her scurry out of the theater at the end of each rehearsal as he packed up his things.
He assumed it had something to do with his being a vampire. That was always it, wasn’t it? People were either frightened of it, or way too interested in it. Every so often, he was sure that even his friends were somewhat wary of him. In the way you’d be wary of a dog; friendly, cute even, but don’t mess with it too much or it might bite.
He watched her leave every evening and didn’t bother to chase after her. What was the point? She obviously wasn’t interested in talking to him and he wasn’t going to hound her like some weird stalker.
Keiavan’s phone went off in the middle of the day. It wasn’t surprising, he was constantly getting notifications for this or that or whatever. When he checked it, he was surprised to see it was from Rose. They’d added each other on all their social media the night they’d reconnected. And then she’d avoided him. It was kind of weird to be invited into her life; seeing her Instagram posts and her Snapchat stories only to have her brush past him when their paths crossed.
She’d snapped him directly. Maybe it was an accident?
Oh. It was her latest French test. I guess dire circumstances had finally forced her to take him up on his offer. He kind of wanted to renege on his offer. Keiavan was kind of bitter about her behavior in the precious days. He opened a new thread of messages and added Rose’s number to the recipient.
>>I’ll be in the library from 3-7; meet me there if you want me to help.

I fear no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) I want no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true) and it’s you are whatever a moon has always meant and whatever a sun will always sing is you.
