Without even a glance over at Ashley, Destro continued what he was doing while Ashley left the room. The cafeteria had only two people now, the older male and a female. Both were already eateng, using the countertop where the woman stood to eat, speaking with one another until Ashley walked in. All eyes were on him, although the only person that spoke to him directly was the woman behind the counter.
"Nice to see you again." She leaned down, grabbing a bag that was already prepared and placed it in front of Ashley. Heading over to the right, she opened what looked like a fridge and pulled out a bottle of B+ blood, feeling how warm it was against her hand. The 'fridge' was actually opposite to what it should do. it warmed up what was inside instead of heated it up, so the blood stayed warm the entire day.
"Here you go, chicken parmesan with a side of fettuccine. Enjoy." The chef smiled, waving to the other two and heading to the back. The other vampires kept their eyes on Ashley, whispering amongst themselves until finally the man spoke aloud.
"Hey, you the new vamp in the class?" he asked, showing no sign of hostility although it could always be hidden.
