Erwin sighed, looking up at the darkening sky. He missed the feeling of warmth of the sun, the cold chill of the evening wind, the delight in walking under the sunshine, feeling the light in his skin... And the worst part was, when he was alive, he didn't really appreciate those things. He supposed few humans did, only caring about the future of the past, very few taking the time to enjoy the feelings of the present. Erwin couldn't really blame them. He had been the same. But not now, not anymore. Now, he remembered it vividly, as he was living each of this sensations, but he knew that they were just that, a memory he would never be able to experience again.<br/><br/>The vampire passed a hand through his hair, turned around, played with the grass, followed a bug who happened to be on the tree... All that just to make time pass quicker. After the first century, time had a different meaning. A lost day was just a second, and a day spent doing nothing at all could be brushed as a minute. That wasn't to say he didn't get bored. As he waited, listening to the words that were being spoken inside the building, he felt suddenly a feeling of anxiety, the knowledge that he would spend many days doing exactly nothing finally sinking in. In the end, Erwin only wanted to feel alive, and he searched for it with the same hunger he searched for his prey when he had to feed, but this, what he had to do, was definitely no way to achieve anything.<br/><br/>The thought of running away crossed his mind, but he shoved it deep down. There were very few Ladies and Lords that would take him under their wing, offer protection to a vampire that had nothing to offer back. He should be grateful, and do the tasks that were required of him.<br/><br/>Not that he ever liked to do so.<br/><br/>When he heard familiar footsteps approaching, he wondered if he should just go away. He wasn't in the mood for another fight. But then, he was stating to feel lonely, so maybe a talk could help. In the end, he stayed where he was, waiting. Then he heard the voice of the human he was supposed to watch, and he opened his eyes, looking at him briefly, before returning his gaze to the sky.<br/><br/><span style="font-weight: bold">"I'm supposed to watch you. So sorry, but you're stuck with me for a while."</span>he shrugged, before frowning.<span style="font-weight: bold">" Although I suppose my presence here is rather uncomfortable."</span><br/><br/>Erwin blinked, before sitting. He had to watch the human, not talk to him. It was almost silly to hope for a little of interaction.<br/><br/><span style="font-weight: bold">"I cannot leave, but I can hide, if you want."</span>he could also ignore the other wishes, and do whatever he liked. It wasn't like the human was fool enough to kill him, and it wasn't like the Lady cared about how he watched the other. But then, if this was going to go on for a while, it was best that he tried to be on good terms.
