(you might say that the human made a bit of a DICK move....
))
Benedicte felt her eyes close slightly as he pressed against her ribs, and her pain seemed to rather rapidly slowly evaporate from her body. In the span of a few seconds, she'd never felt so alive before. A small smile crept onto her lips - feeling relaxed and rather tranquil given the current situation.
She faintly listened to Crowley, but it was his last words that caught her out.
"A kiss?" Her voice was small, as she opened her eyes and stared at Crowley. She'd heard about it before - but Benedicte never cast her own thoughts upon it, she merely thought of it as a joke when someone said it.
Noticing how weak her voice sounded, she cleared her throat and averted her eyes from Crowley. What, was she just going to kiss him? Benedicte, always being secluded to herself and not caring much about relationships, never really kissed anyone... Of course, apart from the teddy bear she recalled from her previous human life that her childish self would snuggle up to.
"F-Fine, just get it over and done with." Crossing her arms, she turned her head away from him - clearly embarrassed by this way of 'making deals'.
John let out a small sigh, and crossed his arms over his chest. "When did I say that you were being punished?" Damn, this vampire had a bite to her - and he wasn't sure if he liked her attitude. Sure, he liked it when people stood up for what they believed in... But not this much.
"If anything, I'm helping you - do you want to see your boyfriend turn bloodthirsty right before your eyes? Do you want to be there when he turns into the very thing that you try not to be? Besides - he suggested it."
John pointed out, shrugging his shoulders. "Look, Chloe... I'm not exactly a
fan of your kind, but I'm thinking of changing my mind. You know, if this deal goes well. If not - then this whole alliance thing me and Benny got going on will be void."
The man stepped towards the table that Benjamin and Chloe were beside, and tapped on the edge of the desk twice. "As much as I hate to do this - if you don't come with me, then your boyfriend will... Well, die." He said effortlessly, as if it wasn't going to hurt Chloe hearing this.
