Sage whipped his head around to look at the man when he brought their food, and moved the appetizers out of the way so he could place the tray of food down on the table. He thanked the man and nodded when Claudia said they appreciated it, and then when the man waved goodbye he waved back slightly before turning back to the food and then Claudia. She could tell him what she was feeling if she wanted to...otherwise he wouldn't press the girl. He supposed feelings were complicated sometimes, and she could think them through before telling him if she wanted....he really didn't mind. She knew how he felt, so she could make those decisions for herself.

"Sage, I'm sorry. I just...I just don't know what to do with, them, my feelings." She didnt know if she should follow them or...hide them? Hiding them didn't seem like something she would try to do, at least not try. Claudia looked up a bit, picking at the food that was placed in front of her, and taking small bites. She took a sip of the drink that Mr.Lopex had offered them, it practically stung her throat, it was fizzy. It was the wine, it was actually not that bad once Claudia took a few sips of the drink. She sighed, and looked over at Sage, "I love you, I'm sorry if I'm being annoying.", Claudia took another sip.

Sage chuckled slightly at the girls comments and nodded. "feelings can be...complicated," he hummed. "You don't have to tell me right away, not while you're trying to figure them out." He reached over to peck the girl on the cheek quickly before going back to his meal. "Don't worry about it." He thought the wine was pretty good too...it was different because of the fizz, but it was definitely good.

(Bit short lol)

Claudia smiled, looking over at Sage, "Thank you for understanding.". She continued to eat her food, the truffles were quite strong, but they went well with the meat. Looking around the dining area Claudia noticed quite a few young couples like them, she smiled and turned back to her food, and after a couple of bites, she rested her head on Sage's shoulder. "This is very filling, Im very tired love, I may stay down for just a bit more." Claudia paused and then groaned. She hadn't had her needle for a month yet, which would explain why she was feeling weird. Claudia chuckled under her breath and then shivered, "Boy its cold in here.", she cuddled closer to Sage.

*Your good :D

Sage smiled and nodded at the girl, and went back to eating for a while. It was comfortable, a nice little place, and while there was a buzz of conversation from the other people eating, it wasn't loud or anything. It was definitely a nice change from the tavern. He looked over at Claudia when she rested her head on his shoulder and spoke up. He nodded and then cocked his head slightly. "You don't look very good," he hummed, wrapping his arm around her to try and warm her a bit. "Why dont don't we go back to the room? We could cuddle up under some blankets and you can warm up," he suggested. He was a bit worried....he knew the girl needed certain things, since she was a vampire, but he didn't know how to get them to her. He didn't really know how to help her. He'd do what he could....but he wasn't sure if it would actually help or not.

Claudia nodded, giving a small smile to the boy, "That would be quite nice.". She stood up, turning to walk to their room. Once they both got there Claudia headed for her bag, pulling out a small needle. It really just pricked her finger, not the worst, but never comfortable. It weirded her out a bit that such a tiny thing could help her so much, and for a month. She had started taking it just a couple of months ago, and Claudia had gotten pretty used to it. After she was finished Claudia walked over to her bed, well really it was both Sage's and hers. She laid down, looking up at Sage smiling.

Sage walked back up to the room after Claudia, and sat down on the bed, confused for a moment before realizing what she was doing. She'd mentioned the needle before...it would make sense that she'd need to do it. He hadn't seen her use it anytime recently, so that was probably why she hadn't felt the greatest. Though...he was pretty curious about the tiny thing. "What's even in that," he asked. He wasn't weirded out or anything...he found it all very cool, really...he was just curious. He reached over to draw the blanket up and over them and scooted closer to Claudia so they could cuddle up and get her warm again.

"It's just stabilizer...very strong stabilizer." Claudia giggled as Sage moved closer to her. It was pretty annoying to take it each month, she wondered what would happen if she didn't take it. Her parents had mentioned it was to keep her from hurting anyone, but she didn't drink blood. That wasn't her type...but she wasn't interested in finding out anytime soon. She didn't want to hurt anyone, no, but again she didn't know what she could do to anyone. Claudia looked at Sage and smiled, he was warm...cozy, she liked cuddling with him, every time it seemed to calm her. Claudia put her arms on his shoulders, leaning in to kiss him.

Sage shrugged and nodded in response to the girl. It seemed odd how so little of something could keep the girl from doing ...whatever she'd do if she didn't take it. It was interesting, really. He gave the girl a smile and kissed her back happily when she leaned in. Part of him did wonder if instead of pricking herself all the time, she could just act like a vampire and drink a little blood. After all, she wouldn't need much if she wasn't a blood sucking vampire. But they all needed something that was in blood, no matter their type...so wouldn't that be easier and cheaper than the needles? He didn't particularly care, though he couldn't help but dimly want to know what it would feel like if she drank his blood. He wouldn't mind...but that wasn't something he was going to wonder about much. Especially not while she was kissing him. He wanted to think about the kiss, nothing else right then.

Claudia felt herself smiling as she slowly(But reluctantly) pulled away for a moment, she ran her nails gently along Sage's neck. Claudia gave a small sigh before kissing him again, she laughed in her head whenever she thought of when the two had first met. She didn't believe at all that he would have allowed her to kiss him, who could she blame though? After all, she had been a slightly suspicious girl, who was in the woods...alone, who wouldn't be a little...suspicious? Claudia continued kissing Sage, for as long as she could, not wanting to stop, but eventually she had to. She was out of breath when she pulled away, Sage made her very happy...she loved being around him.
