"You're really warm," Arien noted, grinning.

"Oh, um thanks. Honestly you feel like you aren't warm at all and maybe not cold completely either." Dan observed.

"That's what happens when you have 'stolen' blood flowing in your veins," Arien said with a shrug, acting like it wasn't a surprise.

Dan nodded, "Yeah, I guess so." Dan pulled out his phone to check the time, "maybe I should start going."

"Mm, okay then." Arien pulled his arm from around Dan, smiling softly. "See you later. Sleep well!"

Dan nodded "will do, and later." He said then grabbed his stuff and left walking home.

Arien waited until Dan left, then stood, changing. He had to go meet with one of his friends.
(Timeskip? I have an idea for some drama if you want that)

(oooh absolutely drama good)
Dan walked home quietly and went to bed when he got back.

(Great!) Arien, feeling especially extra that night, traveled by rooftop.

Dan woke in the middle of the night realizing he didn't have any food for tomorrow morning. So he quickly pulled on a pair of jeans and a sweater before grabbing his phone and wallet then leaving and walking down the street.

Dan made it about halfway to the store before someone was roughly pulling him into an ally, holding a gun.
"Hand over the cash," the man demanded.

Dan looked at him in fear as he had a gun held to him, "can't we just talk about this?" He asked softly with fear in his tone.

"Fine. Hand over the cash or I blow your brains out of your head." The man shoved the gun to Dan's forehead.

Arien, knowing something was wrong. Turned around. Something was going bad with Dan. He hightailed it back, a shadow flickering across the night in search of his human.

Dan looked even more afraid and was quiet slow as he pulled his wallet out. Then handed the guy $7.

The man stared at the money in disgust.
"What are you trying to pull on me? Where's the rest of it?!" Arien arrived, standing behind the man a few feet. He looked… terrifying. Like he could actually kill someone. He held his finger up to his mouth to let Dan know not to give him away yet.

"That's all I have on me." He said before noticing Arien. He slightly felt better seeing Arien there but was still absolutely scared.

"Well then, let's just go to your place and get the rest of it." The man made to grab at Dan, but Arien grabbed ahold of his wrist. There was an audible crack. Arien covered the man's mouth to keep him from screaming.
"Are you okay?" He asked, glancing over at Dan.

Dan nodded slowly, he still looked quite terrified. He was a bit in shock from all that.

The man was trying to scream into Arien's hand, crying a little from his broken wrist.
"I don't want you to watch this okay?" He said gently to Dan.

Dan nodded then turned around and closed his eyes so he couldn't watch.

When Dan turned around, Arien looked back at the man he was restraining. He hissed a little, then sunk his teeth deep into the man's flesh. The man screamed into Arien's hand, trying to pull away, but that just made Arien's teeth tear through more of the man's skin. He drank until the man fell unconscious, and then some more. Finally, he stopped, pulling away and letting the man fall to the ground. Arien wiped his mouth off, turning back to Dan.
"Did he hurt you?" he asked, lightly placing one hand on Dan's shoulder.

Dan shook his head when Arien asked then quickly turned and hugged him.

Arien was a little startled, but he hugged Dan back.
"I'm not gonna let anyone hurt you," he said softly.
