"Do you know Rae Sherridon? Sunshine? She and I... we were- are, have been," he stumbles, trying to find the words, "friends."

"She... she comes from a world where vampires are the enemy. When she found out about me and Eric she... freaked." Hurtfully. "She found some pretty raw nerves." He's trying to sound detached and calm but it hurt him. Deeply. Rocking his trust in her and worse, damaging his sense of self.
