Xander scowled at the woman's words, almost wanting to knock her at the feet for denying him the money that he deserved. Though, a new voice distracted him at his attention turned to the figure in the hallway. A smirk soon crossed his features at the sight, as he recognized the girl. It was the one with that delicious blood that was so very addicting - the very one that he was going to go out and search for after leaving there for another quick bite. Now this made things easier for him. Turning his attention back to the adults, his smirk grew. "How about we make a deal, then?" he asked, arching an eyebrow slightly.
Mr. Harwood's eyes went wide at the sight of the vampire, his mouth opening and closing a few times as if he was trying to say something. He couldn't quite get it out, though. Soon, Mrs. Harwood came in, though she immediately became frightened, and that restored Mr. Harwood, as he didn't want to seem weak and pathetic to his wife. "We don't have your payment," he explained, trying to sound reasonable, "Surely, you must understand, what with having to pay bills and take care of our daughter." Kaycie could hear the conversation from the kitchen and frowned, silently standing up and making her way to the living room. Once she was there, she froze, a fear running through her that she didn't expect to ever feel. She didn't understand it, but stayed silent in hopes that she would go unnoticed - she even began to silently make her way to the stairs to try to creep up to her room.
