He took another bite of his pretzel before Alannah responded to him. He hadn't thought about it at all, not since he'd been with her. It was true. He'd seen things that people didn't even think existed. Very often they were the only things he were able to think about. But as Alannah replied, it didn't take long for him to start taking signs that she wasn't happy with him. Or rather, his lineage. It was an awful reality that there were limitation on his because of his blood. In reality, what could he do? Ask her to just risk everything to hang around with him, a stranger? He suddenly frowned as he noticed her eyes shifting away from him.<br/><br/>In that moment, he couldn't bare to accept that she didn't want to look at him. Had she let go of his hand, he would have been standing by now. Probably walking away, maybe even running. Despite only knowing her for such a short time, he had a feeling in his chest. And while there were no words that he could explain it with, it felt wrong. It was like darkness had engulfed his heart. He wanted to just be alone for the moment, but he wouldn't dare take his hand away from hers. It was the only thing left for the moment that was keeping them together. And as she said she was sorry, he'd thankfully found new hope. Being with Alannah was almost like a roller coaster, though Dimitri had never been on one. With all the ups and downs, it all happened too fast. Though, the downs were more than worth it for the ups, he decided.<br/><br/>"It's... it's not your fault." Dimitri finally managed to speak, though he was experiencing several emotions at the moment. For Alannah being afraid, he felt melancholy. For his father mating with a human without considering the consequences, he was angry. "I understand. I do, it's not your fault. How can I ask somebody to be alright with that?" Dimitri asked, his words were spoken slow, and far from strong. Though he refused to shed any tears, what kind of man was he if he couldn't even speak? "How could I ask somebody to keep me around in their lives for more than a day?" He didn't bother to tilt his head to look at hers, because he was certain she wouldn't be looking back.
