Destro got up and headed back towards the closet, carefully putting the photo's back where they were before. When he made sure they were safe, he closed it and headed back towards the bed, stopping beside it when he heard Ashley ask him that.
Thinking about it for a moment...Destro wondered how it would work out, especially since there were people nearby that he probably knew, how could he explain his absence?
"Someone could see you, ask questions, then everything gets fucked up." Destro sighed, rubbing his head. "If you can assure me no one will see you, and that you will only get enough things to fit in one trip, then fine. But I have to come with you." Destro said. He was being nice today...'nicer' than usual, so going with Ashley was the only thing he'd allow, anything less would be declined.
"Photographs are important for vampires. Having photos of when you were human...or others you loved helps you remember. After hundreds of years, some even forget their parents, how they look, their voice. Photo's are one of the only things that helps us remember." Destro said, trying to show Ashley why he was allowing him to do this.
